Edge Visionary Living is continuing its mark on the South Perth market with Harper on Swan, a landmark riverfront development set to commence construction in early 2026 and poised to redefine luxury apartment living along the iconic Esplanade.
This limited-edition collection of 71 ultra-premium residences occupies a landmark 4000sqm site on the most prestigious stretch of the South Perth Esplanade. Positioned on the corner of Harper Terrace, it’s an address long regarded as one of Perth’s most tightly held and desirable.
From this irreplaceable location, Harper on Swan offers uninterrupted panoramic views across the Swan River and city skyline, framed by the area’s mature streetscapes and supported by the vibrant lifestyle of the Mends Street and Ferry precinct. For Edge Managing Director Gavin Hawkins, the opportunity to deliver a project of this calibre in such a setting is extraordinarily rare. “Our future residents will enjoy lifetime guaranteed city and river views and be a short stroll from the wonderful Mends Street and Ferry precinct. Buyers of premium property know the importance of long-term value and this development epitomises that sentiment.”
Apartment E1* Balcony
The architectural response, led by Hillam Architects, is a celebration of individuality, sophistication and timeless design. Rather than adopting a uniform approach, the building allows for one of Edge’s most diverse collections of layouts to date, each tailored to optimise orientation, privacy and to capture the unparalleled views that define the site. The homes feature expansive glazing, generous indoor–outdoor living zones, refined materiality and a strong emphasis on spatial quality.
Harper’s riverfronting residences, all featuring secondary living areas and uninterrupted Swan River and city views, range from $5.3 million to $6.9 million, with the exclusive sub-penthouse and penthouse offerings crowning the building from $6.6 million. Two and three bedroom residences still enjoy spectacular outlooks with two bedrooms beginning from $2.7 million and three bedrooms from $3.7 million.
Market response to Harper on Swan has been exceptional, with more than $50 million in sales already secured during the pre-launch phase, well before the project’s planned formal release. This early demand reflects not only the scarcity of true front-row riverfront opportunities, but also the confidence buyers have in Edge’s integrated development and construction model.
Residents’ Formal Lounge
The project’s amenity offering further elevates its boutique nature. Designed as an exclusive, resort-inspired retreat, Harper on Swan features more than 2000sqm of wellness and lifestyle spaces. A purpose-built Wellness Retreat sits at the heart of the building, incorporating a commercial-grade gym, yoga retreat room, mineralised soaking baths, spa and steam rooms, and a 25-metre lap pool. Quiet landscaped reflection gardens, private cabanas, outdoor dining areas, a high-end games room, an executive boardroom and two beautifully appointed private dining lounges create a series of refined, purposeful spaces that expand the experience of home. Every element has been curated to enrich daily living and foster a genuine sense of community among residents.
Privacy and exclusivity are further enhanced through dual private lift cores, with each core servicing only a small number of residences per floor. This rare configuration ensures minimal shared access and reinforces the project’s intimate, boutique character - qualities increasingly sought after by discerning downsizers and rightsizers.
The construction of Harper on Swan will be undertaken by the company’s in-house construction arm, Edge Construction, with works commencing early next year. This fully integrated developer–builder model is central to Edge’s reputation for uncompromising quality and delivery. Mr Hawkins said the success of our recently completed project Broadway on the Bay, has only strengthened buyer confidence. “Our integrated model ensures absolute alignment from design through to delivery. Broadway, our first project completed by Edge Construction, has exceeded every expectation. Harper on Swan will continue that legacy and elevate it even further.”
Residents’ Formal Dining
He added that this alignment of vision and execution offers buyers something increasingly rare in the market. “We don’t design to impress on paper, we build to deliver in reality. Our team lives and breathes each project from day one to the moment residents walk through the door and beyond. Buyers truly value that long-term commitment.”
Harper on Swan represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to reside in an irreplaceable front-row riverfront address. With its blend of architectural individuality, world-class amenities and the assurance of Edge’s integrated developer–builder model, it sets a new benchmark for premium apartment living in Australia. Expressions of interest are now being accepted, with private appointments available for prospective purchasers seeking to secure a place in this landmark development.
