Nightingale Evergreen

Nightingale Housing is a not-for-profit social enterprise that exists to support, promote and advocate for high-quality housing that is ecologically, socially, and financially sustainable. Visit nightingalehousing.org to learn more about the Nightingale Model.

Nightingale Evergreen presents an opportunity for CCA to be the developer and architect for the project, to lead and develop housing that has the quality of a single-family home with the unique amenity afforded to multi-residential dwellings. We have secured a site in Brunswick alongside five other leading Melbourne architects; this world-first collaborative precinct is known as Nightingale Village. Nightingale Village has recently been granted planning approval.

The complex team of multiple architectural practices and numerous consultants is cooperating to include shared infrastructure across all buildings, and is collaborating with community housing providers to deliver affordable housing units. Apartments are designed for a diversity of occupants and offer flexibility of living spaces, and purchaser involvement and consultation. Nightingale Evergreen offers 26 sustainable new homes for individuals and families of varying scales, incorporating a ground floor commercial tenancy to service the local community.

We look forward to delivering affordable homes with exceptional sustainability credentials and shared community facilities. Nighingale Evergreen Apartment sales have been allocated by ballot to pre-registered purchasers. To register your interest in living at future Nightingale projects, please visit nightingalehousing.org/purchasers.
