The face of coastal hotspot Glenelg is set to change, as work begins on a unique $55m 14-storey luxury apartment complex.
Construction has started on the boutique complex Dusk Glenelg – offering 10 levels of boutique apartment accommodation with a single home set to occupy each level.
But it won’t come cheap, with buyers needing more than $4m to secure one of the home’s exclusive sky homes.

Each home offers between 300sqm and 380sqm of living space and incorporating a private entry foyer.
Each will feature a 100sqm open-plan living kitchen, living and dining area; three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a powder room, with the larger apartments also featuring a study.

Developers, Adelaide-born Mina Vetos and her husband Harry collaborated with architect Enzo Caroscio to bring the project – which will eventually house about 30 people – to life.
Mr Caroscio is responsible for the project’s sleek design, while Ms Vetos influenced the aesthetic of the floorspaces and interior design.
The couple enjoyed success with their Dusk Henley Beach Project – in which they have an apartment they use for family visits.

“The boutique, luxury nature of the project has been unapologetically designed for the top of the Adelaide beachside housing market and is aimed at sophisticated buyers with an eye for quality and luxury,” said Ms Vetos.
“It’s location on St John’s Row provides future residents with the best of both worlds, with
apartments boasting uninterrupted ocean, city and hills views, and the peace and quiet of being
away from the noise, hustle and bustle of the beachfront.

“It has been a pleasure to work with award-winning local architect Enzo Caroscio who has worked tirelessly to bring our vision to life.”
Mr Caroscio said the lifestyle residents would enjoy at Dusk Glenelg was second to none.
“There are very few projects in Adelaide where a single apartment occupies every level, and this provides significant scope for the building design, and the layout and interior design of each apartment, maximising the views for residents,” Mr Caroscio says.
Among the apartments’ inclusions are curved wall Jetmaster fireplaces, marble kitchens and curved panoramic windows offering views over the ocean, hills and city from every home.
The kitchens will feature a 4m marble bench with breakfast bar, integrated appliances, a walk-in pantry with wine fridge and built-in marble display bar.

Each apartment features a reimagined sunroom and both front and rear balconies and the building offers private, secure entry and parking.
Dusk Glenelg sales agent Tony Matthews said interest had been strong since the project was launched late last year.

“Dusk is unique with only a select number homes within the project, each home occupying an entire floor and the quality of the design, build and interiors surpassing anything else on the market at Glenelg,” he said.
“Unit and apartment prices at Glenelg have surged by 8.3 per cent over the past year with demand fuelling a development boom in the suburb.”

Mr Matthews said four of the homes were already sold – including the penthouse and sub-penthouse – with prices ranging from “mid $4m to mid $5m.”
“All of the interest has come from locals, and indeed the buyers have, and that’s typical with what you see with these sorts of projects at these price points,” he said.
“We’ve had a lot of interest.”
The project coincides with work starting on the $40 million upgrade to nearby Jetty Rd.
