Melbourne is set to witness the emergence of a groundbreaking residential development that promises to set a new standard for contemporary luxury living in Australia. Drummond House, with its innovative features and unparalleled amenities, is positioned to become a landmark in the city's architectural landscape, offering residents an exceptional living experience.  

Renowned architect Karl Fender, principal at Fender Katsalidis, shares his vision: "Drummond House introduces several Australian firsts to residential design. Drawing from my global experiences, we've curated the best of design and luxury to elevate living standards in Melbourne. Our inspiration stems from observing apartment living dynamics, emphasising inclusivity paired with luxurious, future-proof design."  

What truly sets Drummond House apart are three pioneering features that mark firsts in Australian apartment living:

• State-of-the-art air purification systems with UV lights for a pristine, bacteria-free environment
• Siemens intelligent cooking appliances that revolutionise the culinary experience
• Samsung smart fridges offering unprecedented convenience and control over the kitchen

Interior designer Emma Riquelme from Sora highlights the focus on daily practicalities and inclusivity in the design process: "Our design process prioritises daily practicalities, addressing concerns from the moment one enters. Communal areas are extensions of residents' homes, catering to diverse needs. With 51 tailored residences, we emphasise inclusivity, creating a space where everyone feels welcome and valued."

As Carlton's first fully electric building, Drummond House exceeds industry standards in energy efficiency and design. The development features an array of exclusive amenities, including:

• Extended guarantees and warranties
• Number plate recognition technology
• ConnecX building app
• Home automation

• Comprehensive wellness centre with sauna, salt therapy room, and hot and cold baths
• Cinema and outdoor entertainment facilities
• Concierge services

• Private dining and entertaining areas

• Kids play area
• Business centre
• Car and dog wash facilities  

Drummond House's commitment to sustainability and wellness is evident in its design and amenities. Situated in Carlton, Melbourne's most walk-friendly suburb, residents have the opportunity to explore the city on foot or by bike, with the development providing ample bike storage facilities.  

Through collaborations with leading brands such as Siemens, Samsung, Nordic Track, Hydro Steam, Air Aroma, Google Door Nest, and Google Home, Drummond House ensures the integration of cutting-edge technologies to enhance the living experience.
