Transform the way you live in this unique urban retreat. large eco-luxe dwellings with an green soul and a luxurious finish
STRIKING RARE SETTING
Inspired by a rare, natural setting, surrounded by Merri Creek and the Northcote Golf Course, merri green+ is a unique inner urban retreat.
Nothing has been compromised in the creation of this boutique collection of generous, spacious dwellings, with a green soul and an eco luxe finish.
Encouraging a greener form of energy use, merri green+ is one of the first multi residential projects in Australia to introduce Tesla Powerwall battery units to store energy in their townhouses.
Conceived for perpetuity; materials and finishes have been carefully selected for the long term. The result is a truly modern Australian aesthetic, one that reflects this striking natural environment.

TOWNHOUSES
Designed as a compelling alternative to the traditional family home, merri green+ townhouses represent a low maintenance, sustainable lifestyle without compromising on amenity or quality.
Featuring generous spaces with 3 metre ceiling heights in the living area, these 3 bedroom townhouses are a pure expression of the eco luxe philosophy. With a thoughtful design response making the best use of cross ventilation, hydronic heating, solar roof panels, Tesla batteries and an energy rating exceeding 6 stars, they set a new standard for energy consumption.
APARTMENTS
For those who prefer a low maintenance, single level lifestyle, 1,2 and 3 bedroom apartments are an option. Underpinned by the same eco luxe philosophy, the apartments are treated with the same level of respect and design intelligence as the townhouses.
The apartments are built for living, with generous spaces and ceiling heights and an average 6 star energy rating exceeding the minimum 5 star requirement. Operable windows in all rooms and double glazing are paramount. And small details such as bespoke joinery enhance the luxe lifestyle.
Uncommon in a project of this size, the apartment building is serviced by two cores, effectively halving the size of the building. This reduces the amount of noise generated from the common areas, and cuts down on waiting times for the lift. The two cores are designed to allow natural light to flood into the corridors, and their green walls provide a striking feature on the facade

CODSTREAM
Codstream is a single purpose family owned company, founded in 2010 by Ramon and Jenny Collodetti, to develop 200 Beavers Road, Northcote. Ray and Jenny are local residents of 28 years who are firmly committed to the betterment and livability of the area. They are community minded and active in local affairs, with Ray acting as President of the Merri Creek Resident’s Group and Jenny a past organiser of the Merri Primary school fete. With their children attending the local primary and high school, their family is going to live at merri green+.
In addition to this, Ray operated a residential architecture practice for 25 years and gained an acute insight into the power industry and alternates to grid electricity through the NoBTS66 campaign. This professional awareness, insistence on sound design principles and proven amenity installations has been a guiding principle for Codstream in the development of this project, and will ensure that merri green+ becomes a standout, benchmark community that is renowned, inspiring other projects.
CHAMBERLAIN ARCHITECTS
Intrigued by humble daily rituals, Chamberlain Architects create crafted architectural solutions to enrich daily life. They call it “the art of living”.
Led by award winning Director, Glen Chamberlain and Principal, Ella Leoncio, this approach is built
on the relationships they establish with their clients. They see design as a collaborative process. They listen to the client’s needs and aspirations and distill these into beautiful and thoughtful dwellings. A fascination with light, space and material is woven through every project, but their architecture does not follow a pre determined style, rather it evolves from the dialogue that develops with their clients and an appreciation of the site, with the end result being a project with a distinct personality.
They see multi residential work as an exciting opportunity to bring their philosophies from single residence design to apartment and townhouse living. They consider each multi residential project with the same level of care and attention as a single family house, and merri green+ demonstrates this approach like no other development before. Each dwelling
has been crafted to take advantage of its unique position within the site, and the floor plans have been designed to accommodate bespoke furniture pieces designed by Chamberlain Architects, specifically for merri green+.
