Inside The Beachfront Buddina apartment development

As one of Sydney's first planned suburbs, Rosebery was created to accommodate expansive industrial workplaces in 1911.

Despite the&nbsp;once working-class suburb experiencing a transformation of its industrial warehouses into food and beverage hubs which has drawn peoples attention to Rosebery, there's been little activity in the new and off the plan apartment space, with land for a new development difficult to procure.

Rosebery ticks a lot of boxes for buyers. Its proximity to the city, just six kilometres and several transport routes to accomodate that, is one of the major drawcards, as is the distance to the University of New South Wales, just the other side of Moore Park.

One of the most recent entrants to the new and off the plan apartment space in Rosebery is The Rothschild by renowned developer Deicorp.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106843 project_image_fid=221673]

The Candelapas-designed apartment development is ideally located at 24 Rothschild Avenue, just six kilometres from Sydney’s city centre and within walking distance of the best Rosebery offers.&nbsp;

The Rothschild's design reflects the industrial heritage of Rosebery, but with European influences.&nbsp;The Rothschild is made with bricks, with the facade curtained by circular columns, arches, and cascading greenery.

Two eight-level buildings will home 176 apartments, multiple outdoor areas, a communal music room and a ground-level retail space.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106843 project_image_fid=221666]

Residents can access the private landscaped rooftop gardens and the communal courtyard to relax, interact and play while enjoying quick access to the nearby Sweetacres Park.

With all the amenity options within The Rothschild, residents can enjoy the ground-level restaurant and café beneath the residential apartments. The East Village Shopping, Woolworths Metro Rosebery and Wholefoods House are all within walking distance of home for retail conveniences.

The Rothschild is just 550 metres from The Cannery, which really lit a spark under the suburb as a place to visit.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106843 project_image_fid=221672]

Housed in a revived warehouse space, The Cannery brings together food, drinks and designer homewares, with vendors such as Three Blue Ducks, Koskela and Archie Rose Distilling Co featured in the building, while popular favourites like Messina, Pizza Da Mario and Grandma’s have also made a home for themselves in the burgeoning suburb.&nbsp;

The Rothschild is located just across the road from Sweetacres Park, a green outlook rarely found in an inner-city suburb.

Construction on The Rothschild is well underway, with completion slated for early 2025.

How Rosebery turned from industrial warehouses to thriving foodie hub

National developer Kokoda Property have revealed what they intend on doing with their mega-site in Brisbane's Tenerrife.

Kokoda, who have previously completed apartment developments Chester &amp; Ella in Newstead and The Ambrose in Milton, has lodged plans for three towers on the 17,612 sqm site at 17-27 Skyring Terrace site, one of the last undeveloped riverfront sites in Brisbane.

The former Riverside Industrial Sands site, which Kokoda paid over $100 million for earlier this year, will home a total of 380 residences, with the towers ranging from 12 to 30 levels.

There will be&nbsp;a 9,149 sqm hotel, a large plaza, extended riverwalk and laneways throughout with lively public spaces, complemented by 15 office tenancies totalling 2,400sqm and 2,800 sqm of retail, cafes, and restaurants.

<img alt="Kokoda" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9ec2305e-70a5-4a36-ac2d-ebc33fcf7872" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-10-04%20at%207.28.41%20pm.png?VersionId=jgld7Pq53oSKaLPnjL1PkWV6NISC_Q.w" />

&nbsp;

Kokoda Property Founder and Managing Director, Mark Stevens, said that the project aims to provide enhanced design and landscaping that speaks to Brisbane's subtropical biophilic surroundings and Woolstore design intent while providing large, open public spaces.

“Kokoda Property is passionate about providing riverfront amenity on this site and we are committed to creating a contemporary, welcoming place that extends Teneriffe’s culture to the riverfront,” Stevens said.

The project is a collaboration between Kokoda's longtime design partners Cottee Parker Architects, who have designed Chester &amp; Ella and Kokoda's newest Milton tower Ruby Ruby, Carr, and Urbis Town Planning and Landscaping. Leaning into the cultural fabric of Teneriffe, the development will create a much sought-after address for residents and the community.

"Unique to the proposal is the ground plane public plaza, which will unlock 8,902 sqm of public open space, comprising 50 per cent of the site, to residents and visitors of Teneriffe," Urbis said.&nbsp;

<img alt="Render of the proposed Teneriffe development" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a28d3cd7-1302-4d3f-82c9-c264f65934ac" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/KK%20SRT%20RIVERWALK%20%281%29.jpg?VersionId=v1PO.i3CEx01WC63_m78mDiOoPKXLq4s" />

The development will be delivered in stages.&nbsp;The first stage will include shorter buildings on Skyring Terrace and Commercial Road (Tower 3 &amp; 4), followed by stage two (Tower 2), and ultimately stages three and four (Tower 1).

Tower 1, the tallest of the towers, is set to have 114 one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments, including a handful of sub-penthouses and penthouses. Tower 1 will also home a 160-room hotel.&nbsp;

Tower 2 will comprise 159 apartments and Tower 3 will have around 100 apartments with some loft-style residences.

"While the riverwalk attracts pedestrians and cyclists, we have an opportunity to create something in and of the neighbourhood—that speaks to the history, quality, and sensitivities of the local area, for a modern global audience," Cottee Parker noted in their design statement.&nbsp;

"Rarely can you affect the fabric of a neighbourhood in such a profound way, restitching the iconic heritage of a storied suburb to the source of its fortune and fame: the Brisbane River."

<img alt="Render of the proposed Teneriffe development" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e9927613-4e4b-4dfd-b82d-26fc62406a89" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/KK%20SRT%20-%20Plaza%20Teneriffe%20%281%29.jpg?VersionId=dLLbVzeQfP9gJsdLIexjpicuB933_T54" />

Towers 1 and 2 will be connected by a sky bridge on level 14, offering access to a VIP lounge in Tower 2, exclusively for hotel guests. Additional hotel amenities on this level include a 350 sqm day spa, a 437 sqm restaurant and bar, and a 179 sqm Brisbane River-facing pool and deck. Meeting rooms, three ballrooms, and a 556 sqm outdoor terrace lawn with another lounge on level 5 further enhance the hotel's offerings.

Residents will also benefit from rooftop communal decks on each of the towers, including a&nbsp;podium level pool deck on Tower 1. Tower 2 offers additional amenities on level 2, such as a karaoke room, dining/meeting rooms, a sports games lounge, a residential lounge, gym, a cinema room, a multi-sports simulator, barbecues, and a play space room. Tower 3 features a rooftop lap pool, hot spa, cabanas, sun lounges, an outdoor cinema lawn, barbecues, and a sunset lounge.&nbsp;

To further enrich the neighbourhood, the development plans include a small amount of office space on the ground, levels one, two, three and four, as well as loft-style and terrace housing facing Skyring Terrace.

The podium's design places great emphasis on the balance between the hardness of construction materials and the softness of landscaping. Greenery defines its character, softening its edges and connecting residents and the wider community to the natural riverfront environment.

<img alt="Render of the proposed Teneriffe development" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="b9dfad62-26e3-4715-9dd5-273775586bdd" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-10-04%20at%203.22.52%20pm_0.png?VersionId=Y4xG43LoyXuEt1lbx0VAkzmjDdVxAPAX" />

The proposal also includes the construction of a new lane, 'Wool Lane,' off Skyring Terrace, connecting a newly created plaza at the end of Commercial Road to Skyring Terrace near Gasworks. The new riverside public plaza will span approximately 9,023 sqm, providing a view of a new 220-metre riverwalk extension.

This extension, a 'missing link' between existing sections of the Riverwalk, has long been an unfulfilled dream, which could soon come to fruition with Kokoda's development.&nbsp;

While neighbouring areas like Newstead, New Farm, and Fortitude Valley have seen a surge in their lifestyle economies, attracting patrons to their trendy establishments, modern Teneriffe stands out for its unique character. It boasts an array of relaxed local eateries, galleries, and creative agencies, as well as the annual Teneriffe Festival, a vibrant celebration of diverse music, performances, and art.

“It is an opportunity to create something special for Teneriffe and the broader neighbourhood that speaks to the history, quality, and sensitivities of the local area,” Stevens added.&nbsp;

Kokoda propose $1.5 billion, triple-tower riverside development in Teneriffe

Brisbane developer Dibcorp, who are putting the finishing touches to their popular Newstead apartment development Bide, have their eyes set on their next project.

Dibcorp, led by founder Franco Di Bartolomeo, are seeking to redevelop the Spring Hill Hotel at 100 Leichhardt Street into an 18-level mixed-use tower with 126 apartments above&nbsp;commercial and retail spaces.

DKO have put together the plans which will see the Spring Hill Hotel, which has seen better days and was on the brink of disrepair, undergo restoration while integrating it as an integral part of a contemporary residential tower.

<a data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="7086a759-3a0e-4c53-8242-636cb5fcbbf6" href="/new-apartments/one-hundred-spring-hill"><img alt="Render of the proposed Spring Hill development " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="7086a759-3a0e-4c53-8242-636cb5fcbbf6" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-09-28%20at%2011.20.11%20am.png?VersionId=3Ylx19szFDZ8oSuc4qxdmo2PcMUQqG5N" /></a>

DKO said in their submission to the Brisbane City Council the main design focus is to strike an appropriate scale for the site, situated on the border of the CBD, effectively mediating between the height and density of the city and the Spring Hill neighborhood. The project also aims to ensure that the Spring Hill Hotel's historical significance is not only preserved but celebrated.

"The heritage façade is proposed to be retained along with its use as a hospitality venue," the design team said.

"Internally, layouts are intended to be reinstated as much as possible, combining structural rework and contemporary redesign to allow for a modern hospitality venue."

The tower is set to comprise 126 apartments, with a mix of two and three-bedroom floorplans.&nbsp;The ground floor will feature commercial and retail spaces, including options for hospitality establishments, ensuring the site remains a vibrant and inviting place for the community to engage with.

<a data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="4624318e-235a-43d4-8a2c-7d8484e400cd" href="/new-apartments/one-hundred-spring-hill"><img alt="Render of the proposed Spring Hill development " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="4624318e-235a-43d4-8a2c-7d8484e400cd" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-09-28%20at%2011.18.43%20am.png?VersionId=6.WaihyElwSIImJlV5En10abAJ.SwnSL" /></a>

Two distinct communal areas are proposed within the project. One sits on the roof level of the hotel, offering recreational decks and expansive landscapes. Flexible rooms will cater to wellness and co-working needs during the day, transforming into leasable social spaces after hours. The rooftop communal area takes full advantage of the site's views, providing spaces for relaxation and community interaction.

To accommodate residents and visitors, the project includes 158 bicycle parking spaces and 158 car parking spaces across six levels. These options are in addition to the robust public transportation infrastructure already available in Spring Hill.

The proposal not only promises to revitalise a historic landmark but also contributes to the transition of building height from Spring Hill into the City Centre Expansion area, ensuring a seamless blend of old and new in this prime inner-city location.

Dibcorp are near completion of their Newstead project Bide at 29 Longland Street, a collection of 89 apartments which were designed with a focus on wellbeing and liveability. The project features a&nbsp;600 sqm lush garden, known as Bide Gardens, which will home private cabanas and barbecue facilities, designed as a place to relax and unwind for residents as well as an additional space within the project where buyers can work-from-home. &nbsp;

ASX-listed developer Mirvac have consciously taken luxury up a level at their latest Yarra's Edge apartment tower, Trielle.

Trielle's prime location along the north-facing bank of the Yarra River is truly unrepeatable. Just 12.5 metres from the water's edge, it provides views of the city skyline, the Yarra River and Port Phillip Bay. The proximity to bustling Collins Street and the emerging Fishermans Bend precinct ensures residents will enjoy the best of both worlds – urban convenience and tranquil riverside living.

The soaring 45 level tower opposite Point Park, offers some of the largest apartments in the $1.2 billion Yarra's Edge masterplan, which Mirvac began developing in 1994.&nbsp;

Michael Wiener, Mirvac Design Director said “There is a beautiful story behind Trielle, being the jewel in the Yarra’s Edge crown and this beauty is subtly embedded in the design, detailing and materiality of the Sub-Penthouse Collection.

“With breathtaking north-facing views across the river – Trielle sits in the dress circle of Melbourne’s waterfront. Marina YE, Fishermans Bend, Port Phillip Bay – this is Melbourne’s future, and Trielle is a central figure," Wiener said.&nbsp;

One of the most prestigious offerings in the development is the Sub-Penthouse Collection. Buyers have the option to be positioned sky high within the tower or closer to the water in&nbsp;the podium, benefitting from a north or north-east facing orientation, each adjoining to spacious balconies that span from 26 sqm to 59 sqm.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211506]

Victor Wong, Senior Associate, Mirvac Design said “The Sub-Penthouse Collection has been oriented to maximise Trielle’s northern aspect and proximity to the Yarra River, as well as the view down Collins Street to the city.

"Designed to create different zones, the oversized sub-penthouses allow for both privacy and connection with friends or family."

"These residences will be a regenerative place to live, comprising a series of interconnecting flowing spaces giving residents the ultimate flexibility to craft their own living masterpiece," Wong said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211518]

Offering three bedrooms with the option of a fourth or a media room in the tower and three bedroom dual-level floorplans in the podium, these residences redefine spaciousness and elegance. Hotel-like in their quality, every feature and finish is a subtle tribute to the Yarra River, which serves as both muse and backdrop for Trielle's opulent lifestyle.

"The extensive use of bespoke joinery, premium natural stone and sparkling surfaces continue the narrative from external architecture to interior architecture.&nbsp;Reflecting the natural beauty of this precious diamond, the materials add a natural warmth, elegance, and sophistication to the Trielle living experience.” Wiener said.

The kitchens in the sub-penthouses are a visual and practical masterpiece, featuring faceted stone island benches adorned with soft LED lighting, and premium appliances including Bora, Gaggenau and Wolf.&nbsp;

Trielle by Mirvac Sub-Penthouse Collection: Melbourne’s new pinnacle of luxury

Prominent residential developer Golden Age Group has revealed its latest project.

They're set to launch Wembley Hill, a collection of 143 townhouses in Box Hill South, on the banks of Gardiners Creek.

Golden Age have called in development experts Cox Architecture and Mim Fanning's Mim Design to collaborate on the architecture and interiors of the three and four-bedroom townhouses, which will be set in landscaping by landscape architects TCL.

At the heart of Wembley Hill's design philosophy is a commitment to creating spaces that foster good living, intuitive way-finding, safety, and the preservation of the striking natural environment, said Cox Architecture's Phillip Rowe.&nbsp;

"There is no room here for token gestures – each space has been shaped from the inside out," Rowe said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=104627 project_image_fid=222327]

One of the defining features of Wembley Hill is its tiered gardens, mature trees, and open green spaces that seamlessly blend into the architecture. The precincts are united by a palette of warm and off-white brickwork, complemented by natural or charcoal timber accents and vertical greenery.

Curved facades grace Hay Street Village townhomes, while others boast upper terraces with views of Gardiners Creek.

Mediating between the architecture and landscape, the interiors are richly layered, incorporating raw natural expressions in stone, timber, and brass. The spacious interiors are adorned with high-end finishes and appliances, offering intelligent joinery solutions that support a modern lifestyles.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=104627 project_image_fid=222321]

Wembley Hill isn't just a residential development; it's an oasis within the bustling city. With over 13,000 sqm of green spaces featuring cascading landscapes and tiered gardens, residents will find tranquility and rejuvenation right at their doorstep.

Exclusive amenities are also planned for the community,&nbsp;ensuring that residents have access to a vibrant and enriching lifestyle just moments from their home.&nbsp;

The community's urban planning takes inspiration from the site's natural slant towards Gardiners Creek, infusing Wembley Hill with botanical qualities that give it an alluring sense of place.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=104627 project_image_fid=222319]

Situated in the coveted and highly desirable Box Hill area, it's ideally located just a five-minute drive away from Box Hill Central, Sky One Plaza, SKY SQR, and a range of local eateries.

Residents will also benefit from being in the Box Hill High school zone and surrounded by a number of educational institutes, making Wembley Hill a dream living environment for families.

Golden Age Group reveal Box Hill South townhouse development Wembley Hill

Preliminary data by research giant Charter Keck Cramer reveals a 54 per cent decline in Build to Sell apartments across Australia's capital cities, while the Build to Rent boom continues with a 378 per cent increase over the last five years.

Charter Keck Cramer's upcoming National State of the Market Report - Key Metropolitan Areas, scheduled for release in September, will reveal&nbsp;a dramatic transformation in apartment supply patterns across Australia's capital cities between FY2016-2020 and FY2021-2025.

The Build to Sell (BTS) apartment sector has experienced a substantial contraction, with total supply falling by 54 per cent compared to the previous five-year period. The decline represents a reduction of 149,200 apartments across all capital cities.

<img alt="BTS Charter Keck Cramer" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3db2ddf3-e7c0-481f-b8b9-63efb365cb80" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-08-20%20at%2011.26.34%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=bsQl8inhZA7FeiPamnGvw1tse0obBdSd" />

Sydney led the downturn with a decrease of 73,600 apartments, followed by Melbourne (-42,800) and Brisbane (-26,800). Perth and Adelaide also recorded significant declines of 6,400 and 2,400 apartments respectively. Only Gold Coast and Canberra bucked the trend, with modest increases of 500 and 2,300 apartments.

In stark contrast, the Build to Rent (BTR) sector has emerged as a major force in the apartment market, recording a remarkable 378% increase in supply. This growth added 8,590 apartments across the capital cities during FY2021-2025. Melbourne dominated BTR growth with 6,160 additional apartments, while Sydney contributed 2,100 units. Brisbane and Canberra also recorded growth of 800 and 330 apartments respectively. Gold Coast and Perth recorded minor declines, while Adelaide maintained steady levels.

<img alt="BTR CKC" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ca13ffd4-ab93-4828-afd2-4c3dccbd2b51" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-08-20%20at%2011.28.54%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=SXNnpcJuFD36ViWOwF6izBBqcQc3NWao" />

“These preliminary findings indicate a fundamental shift in Australia's apartment development landscape, with traditional Build to Sell models giving way to institutional Build to Rent developments,” said Richard Temlett, Charter Keck Cramer’s National Executive Director of Research.

"This transition reflects changing investor preferences, regulatory environments and housing affordability challenges across major metropolitan areas.”

The complete Charter Keck Cramer National State of the Market Report – Key Metropolitan Areas will provide comprehensive analysis of these trends, their underlying drivers and implications for developers, investors and policymakers when released in September.

Build to Sell apartment supply drops 54% in five years across Australian capital cities

Verso Development Group is seeking to bring over 1,100 apartments to the heart of Brisbane's Toowong, with plans filed for a $1 billion, triple tower development known as Toowong Central.

The landmark urban regeneration project "aims to reshape the core of Brisbane’s inner-west riverside suburb."

Covering over 1.4-hectares across&nbsp;Sherwood Road, High Street, and Jephson Street, Toowong Central has been designed by KHA and will comprise three towers rising 49, 55, and 58 levels.

<img alt="Toowong Central" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="48611e3d-7123-4b99-b2cb-bfa4bc98024f" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/amenities.png?VersionId=yKBexB.BgCkq4OET8fHDkWs0d3DjxOKJ" />

According to the Urban Context Report prepared by Urbis, Toowong Central is positioned as a “city-defining precinct reclaiming Toowong as ‘the best destination in the west’,” with a vision to deliver density differently, strengthen Toowong’s identity, and lead subtropical urban design.

There will be a wide range of apartment configurations, from one-bedrooms to five-bedroom penthouses, as well as short-term accomodation offerings. The design prioritises pedestrian permeability, with an activated public realm featuring a central civic plaza, laneways, and street-level retail and dining.

“The central square’s structure, programming, scale and location creates a social anchor - shaped by its edges, flexible for use, and animated by a diversity of experiences throughout the day and into the evening,” the Urban Context Report noted, reinforcing the project's ambition to become a vibrant community destination.

Design excellence was pursued through an international design competition, attracting entries from renowned practices such as UNStudio and BIG. KHA’s winning design distinguished itself with a ceremonial approach to the public realm, integrating terraces, tiered seating, and green infrastructure to promote social interaction and resilience.

The development builds upon two existing approvals: the 25- and 20-storey towers of the Aviary Toowong proposal, and a separate 25- and 24-storey approval at 88 Jephson Street. Consolidation of these fragmented landholdings under a precinct-wide approach allows for increased community value and cohesive urban integration.

Urbis Director Nicholas Stevenson said Toowong Central will bridge the gap in Toowong's current experience, unlocking the potential of the wider precinct.

"Overcoming experiential constraints and leveraging contextual advantages – Toowong Central will redefine Brisbane's inner west.”

<img alt="Toowong Central" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="73f7a702-625d-452d-9df2-30a0863ac1e8" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/master.png?VersionId=TZdh6wxGC_8IIroXpdkZfuhlS8mFZnea" />

Toowong Central’s ambition extends beyond residential and commercial outcomes. Uses under consideration include a world-class hotel, university facilities, a museum, and health and wellness services, reflecting its role as a western gateway to Brisbane’s growing innovation corridor between the CBD and the University of Queensland.

Urbis Managing Partner James Tuma said Brisbane has no greater opportunity to showcase the future of urban living than Toowong – a sustainable, economically vibrant, and people-centric place that embodies the best of Brisbane.

[The plans] gives us a glimpse into our future as a globally relevant, youthful, entrepreneurial, and distinctly subtropical city.”

$1 billion Toowong Central to deliver 1,100 apartments to undersupplied Brisbane market

In <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/runaway-bay-qld-4216">Runaway Bay</a>, new townhouse-scale waterfront residences are rare - but ones built to the standards found on Sovereign Island are almost unheard of.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/ocean-suites-on-jennifer-10-12-jennifer-avenue-runaway-bay-qld-4216">Ocean Suites on Jennifer</a>&nbsp;changes that, delivering a calibre of construction and detailing that places its seven villas well above the typical market offering in this northern Gold Coast pocket.

Ocean Suites on Jennifer will be move-in ready before Christmas this year, giving buyers the chance to spend the summer on the water in one of Runaway Bay’s rare new waterfront residences.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138718 project_image_fid=214444]

The development is a collaboration between <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/stuart-osman">Stuart Osman Design</a> and <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sand-side-developments">Sand Side Developments</a>, with construction by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/alroe-constructions">Alroe Constructions</a>.

Architect Stuart Osman says the intent from the outset was to create a home people would be drawn to. “When you build anything, the design is to make you want to go hang out in this house,” he says.&nbsp;

Ocean Suites on Jennifer’s design features a front façade softened with planter boxes, rear pool areas, and rooftop decks looking over the water.&nbsp;

Inside, voids and high skylights bring daylight deep into the centre of each home, while ceiling heights of 2.85 metres maintain a strong sense of volume.

Each four-level residence spans 345 to 388 sqm, with layouts accommodating multi-generational living - a ground-floor bedroom suite for older family members and upper levels for the rest of the household. A lift connects all floors.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138718 project_image_fid=214435]

For Andrew Erwin, Director at NPA, the project’s appeal lies in both its location and the detail in execution.&nbsp;

"At Ocean Suites, you’ve got a canal-front setting with direct Broadwater access and a level of finish you’d normally only see in the city’s most prestigious addresses. The four-level layouts, the glass-framed living areas, the private pools, even the extended kitchens, every part of it has been designed with the buyer in mind,” he says.

Those buyers have so far been a mix of Gold Coast locals and interstate purchasers, many seeking a lock-up-and-leave holiday home or a downsized residence without sacrificing space for visiting family.&nbsp;

Older households with teenage children are a recurring profile, drawn to layouts that support multi-generational living and the ability to host extended stays.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138718 project_image_fid=214432]

Material selection reinforces the project’s quality-first ethos, with every home appointed to a premium standard. Kitchens and ensuites feature engineered stone surfaces, complemented by prestige oak engineered timber floors, Victorian ash hardwood staircases, and soft loop-pile carpet.

Premium lighting, statement pendants, ceiling fans, and Fujitsu ducted air conditioning elevate both comfort and design. Each residence also includes a suite of high-end appliances as standard - Fisher &amp; Paykel integrated fridges, Bosch ovens, induction cooktops and dishwashers, Vintec wine fridges, and Franke sinks.

Beyond the interiors, residents enjoy an enviable lifestyle with rooftop terraces, private plunge pools, fire pit areas, outdoor showers, smart home automation, laundry chutes, and private pontoons.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138718 project_image_fid=214452]

With no additional upgrade costs, Sand Side Developments underscores its no-shortcuts approach, delivering homes where luxury and amenity come as standard.

Osman adds that the kitchen has been designed as “the main hub of the house” with six metres high skylights above a galley-style layout that “makes it feel bigger, brighter, whiter” and “brings light into the centre of the home.”

Both architect and builder emphasise a shared commitment to delivering the intended design without compromise. “Working with Alroe’s structural team and their construction team, it’s been great to make sure that the look and feel that was originally intended is the result achieved at the end of the project,” Osman says.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138718 project_image_fid=214453]

Outdoor living has been given equal consideration, with rooftop terraces designed for entertaining with a fire pit and bar, and spacious undercover patios featuring private plunge pools.

The marine access is as carefully executed as the homes themselves. An eight-metre gangway leads to a six-metre private pontoon capable of mooring vessels up to 30 feet, just 300 metres by water from the Broadwater.&nbsp;

Even the orientation of each villa has been optimised to capture long views down the canal, across the Broadwater, and south to Main Beach.

With construction in its final stages, just three of the seven villas remain, priced from $3.365 million to $3.695 million.

Sovereign Island standards come to Runaway Bay with Ocean Suites on Jennifer

Without local developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/gardner-vaughan-group">Gardner Vaughan Group</a>, it could be argued that the small suburb of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/nundah-qld-4012">Nundah</a> would be left behind when it comes to both new housing and retail opportunities.

Gardner Vaughan, one of South East Queensland’s most reputable builder-developers, has been based in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/nundah-qld-4012">Nundah</a> for the last decade. They plan to maintain their presence in the northern <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/brisbane-qld">Brisbane</a> suburb, just seven kilometres from Brisbane Airport and nine kilometres from the city, with the development of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/danby-lane-nundah-village-5-danby-lane-nundah-qld-4012">Danby Lane</a>, the first major project in several years in the heart of the town centre.

GVG will retain one of the commercial spaces in the new mixed-use building for their office headquarters. It will be located in the commercial podium, alongside several other new office spaces. Below will be a street-level retail precinct designed to reinvigorate the local economy, and above, 84 brand-new apartments.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112531 project_image_fid=320114]

Over 60 percent of the apartments have already been snapped up, with buyers eager to secure one of the rare new apartments in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/nundah-qld-4012">Nundah</a>, as well as to benefit from Gardner Vaughan’s solid reputation and long-standing presence in the local community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112531 project_image_fid=320117]

Gardner Vaughan identified the site at the corner of Buckland Road and Danby Lane for its proximity to key amenities. Within 400 metres of the development, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/nundah-qld-4012">Nundah</a> Village offers a variety of cafes, restaurants, and pubs. <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/nundah-qld-4012">Nundah</a> Train Station, just 400 metres away, provides a quick 20-minute train ride into Roma Street.

The development has also attracted young families, drawn to the proximity of not one, but twelve parks, with Boyd Park and Oxenham Park being the most notable. Established families have shown interest due to the close proximity of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/nundah-qld-4012">Nundah</a> State School and Mary MacKillop College.

The one- and two-bedroom apartments in the building have already been snapped up, while the larger three- and four-bedroom apartments—ranging from a generous 117 sqm to nearly 200 sqm—remain highly sought after. There are also just three exclusive luxury penthouses left to sell.

With its in-house construction capability, Gardner Vaughan has already commenced construction on-site and expects to complete the building by March 2027. It's hard to see another opportunity to buy brand new in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/nundah-qld-4012">Nundah</a>, where creating a site anywhere near the scale of the Danby Lane is becoming more and more difficult.

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=112531]

Why Danby Lane is the focal point for change in Brisbane's Nundah

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/metro-property-group">Metro Property Group</a>’s flagship townhouse development, Citrine Townhomes in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/rochedale-qld-4123">Rochedale</a>, has reached another key construction milestone, with the first stage of townhouses now in the defects phase.

All building works for Stage 1 are complete, with the internal roads asphalted, line marking finished, and the bin store slab poured.&nbsp;All essential services, including permanent power, sewer, gas, and water, are now connected and operational.

The defects process is expected to continue until late-August.

<img alt="Citrine Townhomes, Rochedale" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="f48ad1d8-7bb2-424a-a378-2caa4d34c27d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/017%20-%20%20ROLLEY%20PHOTO%20MEDIA%20%20%20-24072025.jpg?VersionId=o5BC3LgYTwxcufsjldO8mkPww3gix1NC" />

Stage 2 is also moving forward steadily, with all townhouses sheeted, the first coat of paint applied, and joinery installed throughout. Tiling has been completed on six of the seven blocks, and the pool is scheduled to be pebblecreted by the end of August.

Stage 3 continues to gather momentum, with external cladding completed on three of the eight blocks. All townhouses have been fully roughed-in for electrical, plumbing, and air conditioning, and the first two blocks have now progressed to internal sheeting.

Stage 1 and 2 are 100 per cent sold and there are now just 10 four-bedroom townhomes left in Stage 3, priced from $1,125,000.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136295 project_image_fid=211]

Residents at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/citrine-townhomes-rochedale-311-gardner-road-rochedale-qld-4123">Citrine Townhomes</a> can also look forward to high-quality shared amenities. The residents' facility will feature a pool, landscaped areas, and a BBQ space, contributing to a lifestyle-focused community environment.

Metro’s fully furnished display home has generated strong interest locally, reinforcing the market’s confidence in the project. Stage 1 and 2 are completely sold out and Stage 3 has officially launched and is selling fast. Just 10 townhouses remain for sale in the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136295 project_image_fid=273134]

The broader Citrine development comprises 90 three and four-bedroom townhomes designed across two to three levels, offering a contemporary contrast to Rochedale’s surrounding single-family homes.

Located just 17 km from Brisbane CBD, Citrine is within walking distance to schools, parks, and the popular Rochedale Village, home to Coles, medical services, and dining options.

Metro Property Group remains on track for project completion, with settlements forecast for Stage 1 in October/November 2025, Stage 2 in November/December 2025, and Stage 3 in January/February 2026.
