The Apartments


With the launch of HOME Docklands, HOME continues its rapid expansion, welcoming approximately 1,300 new residents and growing its Build-to-Rent community to over 3,000 people across its existing locations, HOME Southbank and HOME Richmond.

Designed in collaboration with award-winning architectural firm Cox Architecture, HOME Docklands features two striking 30- and 31-storey towers connected by a shared amenity floor. The development offers a diverse range of studio, one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, catering to renters looking for flexibility, quality, and a seamless urban lifestyle.

 



"As Australia’s leading Build-to-Rent provider, HOME continues to set new benchmarks in urban living and rental property standards, and we seek project collaborators that support us with this vision.

At HOME Docklands, our third community in Melbourne, we have been proud to work with GlobeWest who have furnished a range of our apartments and provided select pieces for our resident spaces including our HOME lobby.   

The team at GlobeWest worked with us to understand our brief and design ethos of ‘laid-back Australian luxury’ and provided us with the perfect pieces from their extensive range that were not only visually striking, but also tactile, making every space feel warm, inviting and ultra-comfortable.

Their highly experienced team were a pleasure to work with and delivered to brief on time and on budget." - Peter Panetta, Design Director - HOME


The Amenities


At HOME Docklands, residents enjoy a lifestyle inspired by five-star hotels, with premium amenities and services designed for effortless living. The development features a 25-meter pool, infrared sauna, state-of-the-art gym, and a spin and Pilates studio, creating a wellness-focused environment. Beyond fitness, the dedicated Resident Services team, available seven days a week, offers concierge-style support, including on-site maintenance, parcel collection, dry cleaning, pet grooming, and furniture assembly, ensuring convenience at every turn.

“HOME Docklands is more than just a place to live; it’s a vibrant community where residents can thrive,” says Christian Grahame, Head of HOME. With interactive events, diverse amenities, pet-friendly spaces, and additional services like apartment cleaning and handyman support, HOME Docklands seamlessly blends style, convenience, and security. Setting a new benchmark for Build-to-Rent living in Australia, it offers more than just apartments—it’s a redefined way of living.
