מתקנים ושירותים סביבתיים

A tricky one in Hebrew, in the context of real estate.
The Academy of the Hebrew Language offers ניעומים, but hardly anyone uses it..
I guess in your context it means the gardens, access roads, parking etc.
See reference.

agree Suzan Chin : I would go with שירותים קהילתיים. These are amenities for the building tenants as opposed to the surrounding area.

amenities

in my part of he world, this would mean tha extra perks that go with the luxury building itslef. such as: the gym, communal pool, sauna, parking facilities, community room, ball-room, and so on. It would not include the neighborhood school, synagogues, shopping centers, etc.
so it would not necessarily be:
סביבתי/קהילתי
as much as part of the package deal that goes with the building itself and the immediate area around it.
it is not clear from your post whether you meant the amenities that are inside each unit in the building: fancy bathroom vanity, gold faucets, private hot tub on each balcony, built in wine cellar, etc. or the amenities that are offered in and around the building.
