The Orchards

The Orchards at Norwest emerges as Sydney’s most ambitious masterplanned residential oasis, a verdant 8.8-hectare precinct in the thriving Hills District, just 31 km northwest of the CBD. Masterminded by Turner Studio and landscape architects McGregor Coxall, it unfolds across six elegant buildings rising 9 to 22 storeys, encompassing over 1,300 light-drenched one- to four-bedroom apartments, sky-homes and townhouse-style retreats that harmonise Japanese-inspired precision with lush, nature-immersed living.

Residences celebrate spacious, open-plan designs with seamless entertainer’s kitchens, premium stone finishes, high-performance glazing for optimal thermal efficiency, and private balconies framing golf course vistas or leafy parklands. Oversized layouts flow effortlessly from timber floors to wintergardens, inviting the outdoors in while solar panels, rainwater harvesting and EV charging underscore sustainable sophistication.

At the precinct’s verdant core, resort-style amenities abound: dual lagoon and indoor heated pools, state-of-the-art fitness centre with wellness classes, outdoor rooftop cinema, music room, function centre and community café with organic grocer. Strangers Creek Linear Park weaves through 1.4 hectares of walking trails, playgrounds and serene water features, fostering a rhythmic balance of community and calm.

A mere 600 m from Norwest Marketown’s supermarkets, cafés and cinemas, and 800 m from the new Norwest Metro Station, The Orchards connects effortlessly to the 30,000-employee business park, elite schools and Castle Hill Country Club. Serene, sustainable and superbly integrated, it blooms as the ultimate green escape in Sydney’s northwest evolution.
