Vermillion by Art Group is the latest off-the-plan development on the ACT market combining luxury and functionality with 166 beautifully designed residences.
Both owner-occupiers and investors have their sights set on Vermillion in Dickson; a prime position on the cusp of the city while still offering access to the natural landscape of Canberra.
The development includes two, eight-storey buildings offering diverse floorplans: from studios to grand two-storey residences, townhouses, and a selection of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments.
Luxurious penthouses with private rooftop backyards are also available, with prices ranging from $440,000 to $1.89 million to suit various buyers.

Vermillion offers an ideal spot where city accessibility meets the natural scenery of Canberra.
There’s also an incentive for owner-occupiers as in the ACT, they don’t have to pay stamp duty on off-the-plan apartments valued up to $1 million.
“Vermillion ticks all the boxes for both owner-occupiers and investors,” said Rita Feng, sales director at Art Group.
“Whether you’re looking for a family home, a downsizer’s retreat, or a high-yield investment property, this development has something for everyone.”
Unique features
Vermillion is built to the Art Group’s ‘Art Standard’; a hallmark of quality and innovation that ensures durability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal.
Ms Feng explained that discerning buyers seek homes they can simply move into without worrying about updates or settlement issues, which is why Vermillion is appealing to so many.
“Premium homes like those at Vermillion offer long-term value and appeal, without the need for constant renovations or upgrades.
“I also think that since Covid, there are a lot of workers working from home and spending more time at home with their kids,” Ms Feng said.
“That’s why quality properties are in high demand right now – because people are spending more time in their homes.”

The apartments blend modern elegance with functionality. Large balconies and open-plan interiors encourage natural light into the homes, creating inviting spaces ideal for relaxing or entertaining.
A standout feature of Vermillion is its collaboration with renowned interior designer and The Block host Darren Palmer, who has incorporated premium finishes and thoughtful layouts.
“I’ve really tried to strike a balance between a fun and timeless aesthetic, while using materials that are great for durability and maintenance,” Mr Palmer said.
The apartments are fitted with high-quality electric Fisher & Paykel appliances including induction cooktops, dishwashers, and washer-dryer combos.
Buyers also have the option to upgrade interiors and appliances, tailoring their homes to personal preferences.
Each apartment is also equipped with a state-of-the-art video intercom system and secure underground parking ensuring convenience and security.
Luxury amenities
Beyond the apartments themselves, Vermillion offers several luxurious amenities designed to enhance the living experience.
Amenities include a gym, communal spaces and a rooftop BBQ area.
“A buyer in Canberra is looking for different amenities to a buyer in Queensland or Sydney because it’s very cold.
“They say to us ‘we don’t need a swimming pool, but we need a gym,’ and so that is what we’ve incorporated,” Ms Feng said.
Communal breakout spaces have also been fitted to provide versatile areas for working from home or connecting with neighbours, fostering a sense of community along with a rooftop BBQ area with panoramic views.
Ms Feng said that for many buyers coming from homes with back gardens, outdoor space is a must-have.
“These unique features make Vermillion especially attractive to families and downsizers who don’t want to sacrifice outdoor living,” she explained.
Vermillion is conveniently near the CBD, Sullivans Creek, and breathtaking mountain reserve views.
Sustainability is at the core of Vermillion, with an impressive average energy efficiency rating of 6.3+ across all apartments.
This ensures reduced environmental impact and lower utility costs for residents.
Additionally, the development features affordable levies, combining premium living with cost-effectiveness, with many residences also falling under the stamp duty exemption, giving buyers substantial savings.
Premium living in Canberra
Nestled on prestigious Northbourne Avenue in Dickson, Vermillion is just 2.5km from the CBD on the light rail, while still enjoying close proximity to the surrounding natural landscape including Sullivans Creek and views of the mountain reserves.
There are also top schools and universities nearby with the Australian National University just a five-minute drive away.
“Dickson’s proximity to the CBD, vibrant shopping precinct, and convenient public transport make it an incredibly desirable location,” Ms Feng said.
“It’s the perfect blend of city convenience and tranquil living, surrounded by parkland.”
