Sydney’s apartment market is entering a new era of design ambition and buyer confidence. With construction pipelines stabilising and population pressures intensifying, 2026 is shaping up as a year defined by carefully curated, design-led projects that respond to both market demand and evolving lifestyle expectations.
From harbourside precincts to revitalised urban centres, the next wave of development reflects how Sydney is reimagining density—prioritising liveability, sustainability, and long-term quality. Many of these projects are backed by developers with proven track records and strong financial credentials, signalling a more mature and resilient off-the-plan landscape.
Here are 15 of the best developments to watch in 2026.
What: Gladesville Village
Where: Gladesville
Who: Third.i
Diversified developer Third.i is targeting a 2026 launch for Gladesville Village, subject to planning approvals.
The precinct will transform an overlooked pocket of Sydney into a vibrant urban village with around 500 new one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments. Located within Hunters Hill Council’s renewed Gladesville Village Masterplan, the project will deliver a much-needed revitalisation of a key town-centre site.
At its heart is 4,500 sqm of public open space, designed by Arcadia, featuring terraced gardens, play areas, and shaded seating to support community activity day and night.
