Sydney’s prestigious Rushcutters Bay is set to welcome a new icon of refined living with the launch of The Rushcutters, a $106-million boutique residential development by Third.i Group in partnership with NPACT.

With exterior and interior design by award-winning architects Woods Bagot, this harbourside collection of 13 luxury apartments promises exclusivity and architectural brilliance in one of the city’s most coveted bayside suburbs.

Having received approval before the City of Sydney’s No Net Dwelling Loss rule took effect in May 2025, The Rushcutters offers a unique opportunity for buyers to secure a harbourside home under grandfathered planning permissions, highlighting its exclusivity in a market where future boutique redevelopments will face tight constraints.

Located at 51–57 Bayswater Road amidst leafy streets with close proximity to the water’s edge, the development offers 12 exquisitely designed two- and three-bedroom apartments and one full-floor penthouse. Residents will enjoy sweeping north-west and north-east views, open-plan layouts, private balconies, and a communal rooftop terrace with panoramic vistas.

Woods Bagot’s design pays homage to the area’s Art Deco heritage while embracing contemporary sophistication. The apartments’ interiors feature stone, timber, and brass finishes, premium Wolf and Miele kitchens, and spa-inspired bedrooms and bathrooms, delivering a refined balance of luxury, functionality, and comfort.

Situated just 200 metres from the Kings Cross entertainment precinct and 1.5km from the Sydney CBD, The Rushcutters offers future residents unmatched access to Potts Point’s vibrant dining and shopping attractions, and harbourside parks.

“The Rushcutters captures the perfect balance of city-centre energy and harbourside serenity,” says Luke Berry, Co-Founder of Third.i Group. “It’s a rare project that combines location, lifestyle, and timeless design that people will aspire to be part of. Beautiful for residents and the community alike, it will create a lasting legacy for Rushcutters Bay.”

The Rushcutters aims to attract downsizers, rightsizers, and those seeking an exclusive opportunity in the inner-east, he adds.

“The site’s location and outlook shaped every element of the design, drawing on Art Deco and mid-century forms through a contemporary lens,” explains Woods Bagot Principal Jason Fraser. “The project celebrates the character of Rushcutters Bay while creating something distinctive and truly special for residents and the local area.” Fraser had earlier collaborated with Third.i on their mixed-use Elevate Crows Nest project.

The Rushcutters is the latest in Third.i Group’s portfolio of boutique Sydney residential developments, including Kurraba Residences in Kurraba Point, Muse in Potts Point, and Casa in Neutral Bay.
