Retail & Precinct
A curated village ecosystem
Rising from the footprint of the historic McGrath's Quarry, the ground plane at Duke & Stone is designed as a highly activated, self-sustaining retail precinct. It brings essential infrastructure and hospitality directly to the doorstep of the residences, recalibrating the standard for mixed-use development in Melbourne's West.
Anchored by Convenience
The precinct is anchored by a full-line supermarket, securing daily utility without the friction of transit. Surrounding this anchor is a strategic curation of specialty retail, formulated to service both the immediate residents and the broader Sunshine North community.
Health & Education
Integrated into the commercial podium is a dedicated medical centre and a premium childcare facility. This consolidation of health and early learning infrastructure creates a localized, high-amenity environment that supports long-term owner-occupier stability.
Hospitality & Dining
The public realm transitions into outdoor dining terraces, flanked by a café and restaurant. The landscape architecture responds to the site's bluestone heritage, introducing textured, tactile materials that frame the civic spaces and encourage prolonged engagement.
Wellness & Recovery
A commercial-scale gymnasium and recovery centre occupies the wellness sector of the podium. Engineered for high performance, it provides residents with elite-tier fitness infrastructure, further reducing the need to leave the precinct for daily routines.
