Construction commences on $100m New Epping Medical building
Construction is underway on the six-storey, 8200-square-metre New Epping Medical building, which will deliver specialist consulting suites, allied health services and advanced medical care. Being built by Kane Constructions, the $100 million New Epping Medical will accommodate a range of specialist healthcare providers.
Providers signed on as anchor tenants include Icon Cancer Centre, which will establish a comprehensive cancer treatment centre in the building delivering advanced radiation therapy technology. Lumus Imaging has also committed to the precinct, to strengthen diagnostic and imaging capabilities across the hub. Additional tenancies are expected to be filled by health professionals including GP, dental and physiotherapy practices.
The facility will connect directly to Ramsay Health Care’s $133 million Northern Private Hospital, which opened in 2024, forming a key part of a broader 20-hectare health ecosystem including the public Northern Hospital Epping. Together, these facilities form the core of the $1 billion New Epping Health Hub, one of the largest integrated healthcare precincts in Melbourne’s north supporting specialist care, research and hospital services within a connected environment.
The New Epping Health Hub forms part of developer Riverlee’s broader $2 billion New Epping masterplanned community. New Epping, which spans 51 hectares of regenerated land, is intended to deliver a vibrant mix of residential neighbourhoods, commercial spaces, a health, healing and innovation hub and a civic heart, all connected by a central green spine.
“Melbourne’s northern growth corridor is one of Australia’s fastest-growing, placing increasing pressure on the local healthcare system: rapid population expansion, combined with an aging population and increasing chronic health conditions is driving demand for new health infrastructure,” Riverlee Development Director David Lee said.
“The New Epping Health Hub and specific buildings like New Epping Medical have been designed to alleviate this mounting pressure and bring much-needed medical services to the region.”
