April, 2020
We are pleased to pass on the below update from the developer:
We’re obviously living in a very unusual and challenging environment at the minute and we hope everyone is looking after themselves and supporting each other through it. Whilst things are changing daily, we thought it’d be an appropriate time to provide an update in relation to 835 High.
Firstly, we’re very excited to be able to announce that we’ve appointed Flux (Figurehead Construction) as our Builder/Head Contractor. Flux were the builder on our recently completed 97 Mathoura Rd, Toorak development which was also designed by Carr and has recently been shortlisted for the prestigious Australian Interior Design Awards. Flux have an unrivalled reputation for delivery of extremely high quality developments and we couldn’t be more confident in their ability to deliver another outstanding result for us all at 835.
Link to Flux website – http://www.fluxconstruction.com.au/
Link to our completed Mathoura Rd Development (Moda/Carr/Flux) – https://www.moda.com.au/97-mathoura-road-toorak/
Flux have already commenced demolition on site with the internal strip-out phase well underway and will roll straight into construction unless there are further State/Federal restrictions put in place to prevent them from doing so. As of today, the construction industry continues to operate, albeit under some modified working conditions.
From a sales perspective, we’ve now sold 23 of 26 Apartments which is an incredible outcome (so quickly) and reflects the quality of the design and location.
Our business and more specifically this development is extremely well capitalised and nicely positioned to deliver 835 High and we look forward to keeping you regularly updated as we progress through construction.
If anyone would like to discuss anything at all, please feel free to email or call, we’re available at any time.
Lastly and more importantly we hope you’re all staying safe and keeping healthy.

The developer advises the following:
Internal and external finishes are progressing, including kitchen cabinetry, bathroom fit-outs, balcony planter boxes and balustrades and the buildings’ facade.
The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely impacting the construction programme particularly the supply of building materials sourced from overseas.
The anticipated completion is now late June 2020 but this is dependent upon how the COVID-19 situation unfolds and further delays may occur.

At this stage the basement excavation is complete, and the rainwater tanks have been installed below the basement slab. The basement concrete walls and base slab have now been poured with the ground floor concrete suspended slab now 50% poured – the remaining 50% is to be poured in the next two weeks. The next two weeks will also see the concrete walls and columns, already installed within the basement, continuing above ground floor.
Over the coming months structural works will continue with level 1 and 2 slabs to be poured as well as the top floor roof structure. We are aiming for the building to be “topped out” in late May/June. The internal services fit out will follow with the individual apartments beginning to take shape!
Included within the next project update will be information regarding our recommended window furnishing supplier and how to arrange quotes and install directly with them.

Demolition Now Completed – Construction Starting Soon.
Further Updates to come in due course.
May, 2020
Please find the latest update below from the developer:
We are happy to advise we have now identified our Preferred Builder and we are currently in the stage of finalising our Contract with that Builder. As we have not yet actually signed a Contract with them, the milestone dates they have provided us with are only still anticipated dates ( and may very well still vary), but our Preferred Builder has given us a Building Completion timeframe of around October, with a possible timing for the issuing of the Certificate of Occupancy of mid-October. Then, with the required 14 day Settlement period, the anticipated best-estimate for the handover of the Apartments could be around 1 November 2020.
This proposed completion schedule may be protracted somewhat from our previous estimates as per our Construction Update No. 8, issued on 26 March 2020, but we have been working tirelessly to select a New Builder who is both capable and worthy of the job to complete the HELM build to our high expectations, which has not been an easy task. Taking the extra time to do the necessary due diligence to be able to be confident in the selection of our Preferred Builder has been crucial to try and ensure a smooth finalisation schedule for the remainder of the build, and we believe that this will mean a superior quality end-finish to the Apartments will be delivered that will be worth the wait.
May, 2020
The developer has advised that for the month of April, they have been installing the underground sewer & stormwater services to the main block of Townhouses at Balaclava.
This includes running all major services (water, gas, electricity) below the ground floors.
They will also be working in the front four units, pouring the slabs and basic infill timber framing.
They have advised they are utilising a pre-fabricated wall & floor system that is delivered to site with the windows installed and some external claddings on. (not the feature cladding). Frames are ordered and are due to start erecting on site from early June.
This process is expected to expedite the build significantly, with the manufacturer estimating they will erect a complete three level townhouse including roof trusses within a week.
Our aim is to have all townhouses locked up in October 2020.
Further updates to come.
May, 2020
Through this challenging time we have been able to progress and complete our roof and are closing in on completing our external claddings.
Over the next few weeks we will be focusing on the finishing touches externally, with render colours, caulking and capping’s before we remove the scaffolding around the building.
Internally, first floor services are almost complete – being plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling – and we are commencing to lock up on the ground floor with the intention of commencing plaster in the next few weeks.
In addition to maintaining a steady progress, our priority is to ensure that we maintain safe work practices and promote social distancing on site.
Photos included show the progress of the site.
Should you have any queries please contact us on 9530 6800 or info@shustin.com

The developers advise that they have now removed all contaminated material from the site and obtained a Statement of Environmental Audit from the environmental auditor. This has been a long and complex process and we have now moved onto the next stages.
There is a water table throughout this area just a few meters below the surface as can be seen on site now. We need to constantly pump the water from the site to allow excavation and construction to proceed. The water needs to be treated and disposed of via the sewer under the terms of a special Trade Waste Agreement. Right now, the tanks etc needed to operate the pumping system are being installed. Within a week or so we should be back on site excavating and constructing.
Photos updated today 24th March 2020 – showing de watering underway. Pumps are running 24 hours a day. Looking at recommencing construction next week.
Drakk advise that they have contacted buyers by phone and arranged meetings, which they subsequently postponed for obvious reasons.
We will further update this page in due course with photos and construction updates. Thanks for your patience.
Anticipated completion is April 2021.

Purchasers, please see the letter below from Kallan Carabott, Director of Oxford Development Group.
Dear Purchasers,
I am sorry for the delay in our commencement of PARQ.
We demolished the existing buildings late last year with a March 2020 start date as our goal, unfortunately COVID-19 has created delays we could never prepare for, social distancing through my own office, our consultants reduced work hours and a shortage of work ready sub-contractors forced us to temporarily put the brakes on the project.
I am delighted to say that things are a lot better now in the building industry and things are back on track, however still slower than normal. At the moment we are confident we will be able to commence construction in 6-8 weeks’ time.
Thank you for your patience.
Kallan Carabott
