1501/112 Talavera Road, Macquarie Park NSW 2113

North facing with panoramic views | 102sqm floorplate in Macquarie Park | bushfire overlay flagged | rental yield around 4.7 to 5 percent This unit offers a rare configuration advantage for a two-bedroom apartment in Macquarie Park — a true north aspect combined with a 102sqm internal footprint, which is well above the typical new-build standard in this corridor. The building size gives genuine separation from neighbouring towers, and the open car space adds practical daily value. The rental income range of $910 to $1,070 per week signals solid demand from professionals and couples who prioritise space and light over proximity to the station. For a buyer looking to hold medium-term, this property competes on liveability rather than discount pricing, and that positions it better for capital stability than the smaller units in the same precinct. The bushfire overlay is the primary risk worth costing — it may affect some lenders’ appetite and could add a modest premium to insurance. The land size figure of 1.52 acres is misleading for a strata unit and should be disregarded; the relevant metric is the 102sqm internal area. The property sits within Ryde council, which has been generally supportive of higher-density zoning, so future supply in the immediate area is a known headwind for capital growth. The Opticomm fibre connection is a supporting feature but not a decision-driver. Best held as a long-term owner-occupied base or a stable rental hold, with the north aspect and floorplan as the primary defence against depreciation in a supply-heavy market.
