There’s a brand-new development in town, and it’s sure to be a hit with lovers of the inner-city lifestyle. Welcome to De Burgh.
The brainchild of longstanding developer JWLand, De Burgh marks the final residential instalment in Lyneham’s sought-after Northbourne Village precinct. It joins sister-buildings Embark and The Sullivan at a crossroads of Canberra’s most dynamic inner-north suburbs.
De Burgh comprises a range of one, two and three-bedroom apartments and studios across two modern buildings. Fronting energetic Northbourne Avenue and leafy De Burgh Street, the views here stretch out to Black Mountain and over nearby Lyneham Wetlands.
Since moving in earlier this year, De Burgh‘s first residents have been spoiled for choice in entertainment, dining, retail, and lush outdoor spaces.
Within the development itself, they enjoy access to a residents-only gym, a secure parcel locker service, bookable lounge and dining rooms, and a rooftop garden with barbecue facilities.
Out and about, local favourites like Tilley’s Devine Cafe and Gallery and Lyneham Turkish Pide & Kebabs are right around the corner. Braddon and Dickson are also both close by, offering vibrant nightlife and easy access to the daily essentials.
Being just a few light rail stops away from the city centre makes De Burgh a strong contender for professional couples, first-home buyers, and savvy investors alike.
Nature-lovers will adore being so close to Lyneham Wetlands, which is dotted with walking and cycling paths. Birdlife here is vibrant, and there are plenty of picnic spots to explore with family and friends.
JWLand project marketing manager Nick Babic says living at De Burgh means comfort, convenience, and connection – but the development’s strongest point of difference is being move-in ready.
“Canberra’s market is pretty saturated with off-the-plan developments at the moment,” he says.
“There’s no need to wait or play guessing games. You can see, touch, feel and picture yourself living in these spaces right now.
“That includes not only the apartments themselves, but amenities as well. It’s so easy to imagine sipping coffee in the central courtyard or catching up with other residents in the lounge.”
They say variety is the spice of life, and at De Burgh, there’s an apartment to suit just about anyone. Every residence maximises sleek, contemporary style, clever storage, and best sustainability practices in equal measure.
Passive solar design, paired with double-glazed windows, ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning and energy-efficient appliances, helps keep power bills low while maintaining comfort in any season.
“From the front door to the balcony and everywhere in between, our apartments are designed to bring in natural light while maintaining privacy,” Nick says.
“Just some of the style features you’ll notice include Fisher & Paykel appliances, soft-close cabinets and stone benchtops in the kitchen, and sleek tiling, smart tapware and semi-frameless glass shower screens in the bathroom.
“Residents can even operate their lights and climate control straight from their phone. How nice would it be to have a bright, warm apartment waiting for you after a long day at work?”
Finally, there’s the JWLand promise to consider. This includes a market-leading 12-month warranty, giving residents a full year from the date they receive their keys to notify the team of any issues.
De Burgh brings together key elements sought by many inner-north buyers: a well-connected address on the light rail corridor, walkable access to cafés and green spaces, thoughtfully designed apartments, and shared areas that encourage a sense of community.
“We know the biggest drawcards for modern apartment living are affordability and proximity to city centres for work, eating out, and meeting friends,” Nick says.
“De Burgh encompasses that enviable lifestyle and balances it further with a safe, peaceful complex and spacious, comfortable residences that really feel like home.”
De Burgh’s one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments and studios are now available. To find out more or register your interest, visit Northbourne Village: De Burgh.
