Cbus Property to bring landmark residences to 437 St Kilda Road

March 2025

Cbus Property is set to expand its portfolio of city-defining luxury residential developments in exceptional locations with the launch of its latest residential tower, Four Three Seven, at 437 St Kilda Road, Melbourne.

The circa $350 million collection of 77 Bates Smart-designed residences is the latest offering in the portfolio of extraordinary residential and commercial developments across Australia. Occupying a prime corner site along the leafy esplanade of St Kilda Road, Four Three Seven will capture sweeping views of St Kilda Road and Slater Street, and across the treetops of Fawkner Park directly adjacent.

Located within close proximity to some of Melbourne’s most notable cultural institutions, such as the National Gallery of Victoria and the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, as well as some of the finest dining and shopping precincts, Four Three Seven will cleverly blend a refined aesthetic with art, architecture and culture.

The urban oasis will offer tranquillity for prospective purchasers who value exceptional design, quality and extensively customisable homes, coupled with the convenience of a prestigious city-fringe location, stunning CBD and park views and opulent hotel-style amenity.

Cbus Property’s Chief Executive Officer, Adrian Pozzo, said Four Three Seven was much more than a residential development, noting its potential to stand out as a landmark on the city skyline, alongside its celebrated predecessors.

“With the successful completion of 35 Spring St, 17 Spring St, Collins Arch and most recently, Como Terraces, Cbus Property has been firmly established as an expert in quality residential development in Melbourne,” he said.

“As demand for premium property continues to grow and the lifestyle advantages and convenience of apartment living becomes more widely recognised and embraced, we have built an excellent reputation as a trusted and experienced developer, delivering the quality we promise each time.

“Following in the footsteps of our previous projects, Four Three Seven is testament to genuine city-shaping foresight and represents a new chapter in Melbourne living, one where nature and design collide to forge an extraordinary lifestyle for the culture and art enthusiasts, the innovators and those who appreciate the finest level of detail.

“In such a prime location, close to fantastic schools, transport, and cultural experiences, the synergy of past and future is palpable, offering an unrivalled opportunity for discerning buyers seeking to be part of Melbourne’s enduring story.”

In keeping with creating residences that are synonymous with a signature Melbourne lifestyle, Cbus Property has invested in collaborations with some of the city’s much-loved creators and icons in their own right, including emerging artist, Augusta Vinall Richardson, who is sculpting two bespoke pieces for Four Three Seven that will be showcased in the sales gallery during construction.

Ben Avery of Colourblind Florist will curate a complementary botanical installation, adding a tactile experience of nature’s influence on both life and art, while food journalist, Dani Valent, has curated an exclusive guide to Melbourne’s top 10 restaurants and food providores, sharing her insider expertise with purchasers to highlight the culinary delights on offer in the precinct.

Renowned art consultant, Emily Cormack, will also contribute to the project, curating artworks by emerging artists for their future potential in Melbourne’s contemporary art scene that will be displayed in Four Three Seven’s grand ground-floor foyer upon completion.

Four Three Seven will feature coveted five-star amenity, from a stunning residents’ lounge and dining area to a gym, sauna and steam room, an outdoor terrace capturing breathtaking views of Fawkner Park and a 25-metre indoor pool. Residents will also enjoy three levels of secure basement parking and dedicated bike storage – all elements that when combined, epitomise a life of comfort, convenience and sophistication.

Adding a further layer of exclusivity and elegance, extensive customisation options will allow prospective purchasers to transform their residence’s interior spaces to reflect their individual style and living preferences. Kitchens, bathrooms and ensuites come in three meticulously curated schemes, warm, cool and dark; while customised cabinetry will allow purchasers to decide whether they would prefer extra cupboard space, drawers and bookshelves, a study nook or even a bar. They may further choose between engineered timber floorboards and parquetry flooring and long and
short curved joinery handles.

“As with all residences by Cbus Property and Bates Smart, the fixtures, fittings and finishes combine to deliver a living environment of relaxed yet refined quality,” Mr Pozzo said. “The high degree of customisation means that every choice of colour, material, appliance and finish will work in harmony to create a natural legacy of exceptional craftsmanship.”

Bates Smart Associate Director, Grant Filipoff, echoed this sentiment, saying Four Three Seven would be a timeless and enduring addition to St Kilda Road, marking Cbus Property’s fourth residential collaboration with the firm in Melbourne, following the highly successful Classic East Melbourne, 35 Spring St and, most recently, 17 Spring St, completed in 2023. 

“We took our design inspiration from St Kilda Road’s beloved and beautiful curved, art deco apartment buildings, while incorporating streamlined, modern and sustainable biophilic design principles and contemporary design elements,” Mr Filipoff said.

“Sensitive to the external environment and natural beauty of the surrounding parklands, gardens and reserves, including the Royal Botanic Gardens, Albert Park and Fawkner Park, we wanted to invite nature to positively influence daily life and ensure a seamless integration of urban living with natural serenity. We made subtle integrations, such as balcony extensions and perimeter planter boxes, to enhance the connection to nature.”

Comprising generously proportioned two-bedroom, three-bedroom, half- and full-floor residences, pricing starts from $1.95 million for a circa 125-square-metre two-bedroom residence and $2.825 million for a circa 155-square-metre three-bedroom residence. Half and full-floor residences start from $8.0 million.

Construction on Four Three Seven is scheduled to commence in Q2 2025.
