Woodbridge Capital partners with Kokoda Property on landmark $450 million Malvern Collective precinct in Melbourne

Woodbridge is pleased to announce its partnership with Kokoda Property in providing a residual stock facility for the recently completed Malvern Collective – a $450 million plus landmark mixed-use precinct redefining Melbourne’s inner south.

Positioned at the iconic junction of Glenferrie and Dandenong Roads, the Malvern precinct transforms a key urban site into a dynamic lifestyle destination that reflects the evolving character of Malvern and its surrounds.

“The Malvern Collective precinct is a perfect example of what we stand for – quality assets, credible sponsors, and projects in sought-after markets,” said Andrew Torrington, Managing Director and CIO of Woodbridge.

“Partnering with Kokoda and their partners demonstrates our capability to move quickly, structure tailored solutions and support premium developers delivering superior product.”

Woodbridge’s funding of the Malvern Collective underscores its continued growth and ability to provide certainty in an evolving private credit landscape. The transaction reinforces Woodbridge’s position as a trusted partner for borrowers seeking fast, flexible, and disciplined capital solutions underpinned by deep property and credit expertise.

“We were delighted to work alongside Kokoda and their partners on this landmark project,” Torrington added. “Our team thrives on supporting developers with a proven track record and a clear vision for quality. This partnership underscores Woodbridge’s commitment to backing projects that elevate their communities and deliver enduring value.”

Designed by Jackson Clements Burrows with interiors by Carr, Malvern Collective features two striking towers comprising 205 premium apartments, including the exclusive Penthouse Collection. The ground level will deliver a vibrant mix of retail, dining, and lifestyle offerings – from a boutique grocer, barber, and jeweller to a café, cellar door, and fitness studio – with laneways linking directly to Glenferrie Road and Malvern Station.

As one of Melbourne’s most anticipated residential and lifestyle destinations, Malvern Collective reflects both Kokoda’s design-led development philosophy and Woodbridge’s focus on financing high-calibre real-estate outcomes across Australia and New Zealand.

The announcement follows Woodbridge’s recent recognition at The Urban Developer Awards 2025, where the firm was honoured for excellence in private credit and innovative funding partnerships.
