Renewal SA has secured Adelaide's&nbsp;West End Brewery with the intention to create a $1 billion, mixed-use community with over 1,000 new homes.&nbsp;

The West End Brewery, which closed in June 2021 after 135 years of brewing operations at the site, is located on Port Road in Thebarton,&nbsp;an inner-western suburb of Adelaide.

The planned precinct will also present significant opportunities for commercial, hospitality, retail and government tenancies, which along with greenspace activations, will create a bustling new economy on the city’s fringe.

Renewal SA will act as master developer of the 8.4-hectare community and work in partnership with industry to deliver the project after being selected by Lion Beer Wine &amp; Spirits as its preferred proponent during a market expression of interest process.

Adoption of a government-led delivery model will provide widespread opportunities for private sector participation in planning, design, civil works, development, building and construction activities while ensuring best-for-state community outcomes.

Renewal SA has begun active discussions with the National Housing Finance and Investment Corporation (NHFIC) on funding opportunities specific to the ground-breaking Thebarton development in a bid to assist South Australians in their pursuit of home ownership.

This includes talks to form a bilateral agreement that would cut red tape for Community Housing Providers, identify areas of social and affordable housing need, unlock government land to assist delivery and expedite planning approvals.

Part of the development will likely be the adaptive&nbsp;reuse of the high-profile heritage buildings such as the Walkerville Brewhouse, and activation of the area around Colonial William Light’s first Adelaide home, as well as recognition of Kaurna culture.

Detailed master planning will inform the final land use mix and configuration of the new community, along with feedback from stakeholder and community consultation. It will be people-focused in its intent and aim to exemplify the seven Elements of Great Places–equity, identity, greenery, urbanity, mobility, wellness and resilience–as defined by the United Nations.

As part of its presale preparations, Lion lodged an application for a Code Amendment to rezone the land to a combination of Urban Corridor (Boulevard) and Open Space, which would allow for a myriad of future uses. The site is currently predominantly zoned for Strategic Employment.

Much of the site has already been cleared and remediated by Lion, meaning development can occur quickly. Renewal SA will commence detailed master planning early next year with civil works to follow that process. It will also begin gauging interest from private sector developers and investors, along with CHPs looking to partner with it on affordable rental projects in 2024.

Indicative timelines have construction and property sales starting in 2025, with the first residents moving in by 2027. Key civic spaces and public amenity will also be prioritised within the first stages of development.

Housing and Urban Development Minister Nick Champion said the strategic acquisition of the Brewery site solved a number of state government requirements while providing major scope to rigorously pursue its agenda to increase housing supply along key corridors.

“It is almost unheard of to get an infill site of this scale in any capital city, so we seized the opportunity,” Minister Champion said.

“It is our intention to create a world-class precinct – one which is a catalyst for further local investment and drives housing affordability. We will draw inspiration from other high-quality urban infill projects like Bowden.”

Renewal SA Chief Executive Chris Menz said extensive opportunities for development and construction industry partners to bring their specialist knowledge and innovative solutions to the project would be announced in the coming months.

“We will be looking to leverage the resources and expertise of the private sector including development partners, investors, designers, consultants and builders, to deliver this world-class vision.

“Renewal SA has solid experience in creating investment ready, well-planned, industry leading communities for the state and we intend to secure the most successful and proven development partners to deliver each component of the project – including residential, retail and commercial - through an open competitive process.

"We’ll be looking for the best of local and interstate experience and investment and it’s my firm view that great outcomes are achieved when government and private sector work hand-in-hand, which we have seen at the likes of Bowden, Tonsley Innovation District, and Playford Alive.”

The planned precinct will present significant opportunities for commercial, hospitality, retail and government tenancies, which along with greenspace activations, will create a bustling new economy on the city’s fringe.

Apartment developer Ceerose have filed plans for a luxury apartment development in Potts Point.

Renowned architect Koichi Takada has put the plans together for a 10-level building across a 1,201 sqm site at 117 Victoria Street, halfway down the treelined street between Kings Cross Station and Challis Avenue, near The Butler. The estimated cost is&nbsp;$19.58 million.

Ceerose snapped up the A-Grade site late last year. It currently homes an original apartment block with 45 apartments which will be demolished.

<img alt="Ceerose Potts Point" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="6c3eee2f-115a-4c62-8710-f6b041d39d80" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-09-29%20at%209.59.36%20am.png?VersionId=_H8Gz8e..4BDrKsXGSacx9I3uoj0b1.s" />

In the design statement submitted to the City of Sydney Council earlier this week, Takada said&nbsp;the architecture is taking cues from the existing streetscape while providing something refined and contemporary to the area.

"This proposal takes cues from neighbouring properties on historic Victoria Street and sits modestly within the streetscape context," the submission said.

"The attractive, modern design employs a simple material palette and clean, unassuming forms to create a building that enhances and highlights the site."

Takada said the scheme is centred on celebrating views.

"The generous floorplans, views and direct connection to the street will provide residents the best of inner city living, in one of the most sought after suburbs in one of the most liveable cities in the world.

"Koichi Takada Architects have created a design that will become a benchmark for elegant design and provide welcoming homes for its residents while enhancing the Potts Point neighbourhood character."

The upper levels of the building will offer unrestricted views of the Sydney skyline.

There are two, three and four-bedrooms proposed, a handful of which span two levels. The two-bedroom apartments start from 110 sqm.

The majority of the apartments are three-bedrooms (15). There's six two-bedroom apartments and a single four-bedroom apartment. A handful of the apartments have plunge pools on their balconies toward the top of the building.

There 26 parking spaces, four of which are for visitors.

"The design relies on simplicity and quality, blending historic forms with modern materials and detailing to create a unique, inviting address for it’s residents," Takada noted.

"The proposed building addresses it’s dual street aspects in two distinctive ways. Victoria Street is treated with a modest façade, featuring recessed windows fronted with brickwork arches and integrated landscaping. The Brougham Street facade departs from the Potts Point vernacular. An irregular arrangement of balconies creates a more haphazard elevation that mirrors the neighbouring sandstone rockface and the rhythm of the adjacent buildings."

Sydney developer Deicorp has been appointed by Landcom and Sydney Metro to develop the next stage of the residential village that will form part of the Hills Showground Station precinct in Sydney’s Hills District.

Precinct East will be the second lot to be developed at the Hills Showground Station Precinct and is opposite the now under construction 430-unit Hills Showground Village, which Deicorp was also appointed by Landcom and Sydney Metro to develop.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=133881 project_image_fid=209816]

Precinct East, which is the largest lot at Hills Showground Station, will accommodate up to 873 dwellings and 3,200 sqm of public open space including a new park.

Deicorp's founder and Chairman Fouad Deiri said he was delighted Deicorp had secured its third Landcom and Sydney Metro project.

“As Sydney’s leading builder of transport-connected developments, we are delighted that Landcom and Sydney Metro have once again chosen the Deicorp team to deliver this vital new housing supply in the Hills," Deiri said.

"Our experience in successfully delivering activated new urban communities along the metro line will help us achieve another thriving village in The Hills. Importantly, the Precinct East project will see Deicorp deliver beautifully designed, affordable and sustainable housing on the doorstep of the Metro North West Line.”

Developer&nbsp;GURNERTM is plotting to create an $800 million mixed-use development on Melbourne's St Kilda Road, having secured a prime site facing Albert Park.

The plan is for between 160 to 180 residences on a 4,651 sqm site corner site at&nbsp;424–426 St Kilda Road which has three&nbsp;frontages on the corner of St Kilda Road, Toorak Road and Queens Lane.

The unnamed project will&nbsp;offer uninterrupted views over the Royal Botanic Gardens and Domain precinct, the city skyline and Albert Park Lake.

Once complete, the project will boast walkability to Anzac Station, Albert Park Lake, the Royal Botanic Gardens and Fawkner Park, and be in easy proximity to South Yarra’s retail and dining precinct.

Residences will be focused on private nature of the precinct for downsizers and lifestyle upsizers with a focus on wellness, and lifestyle, with plans for on-site retail that would complement the project’s prestigious location, and wellness amenities that will promote a healthy lifestyle among residents.

GURNERTM, led by Tim Gurner, secured the blue-chip property through an off-market negotiation after the site was taken to market by JLL’s Josh Rutman &amp; Mingxuan Li and CBRE’s Kiran Pillai and Tom Ryan in late 2022.

The site is currently home to two six-storey commercial office buildings joined by a five-level atrium, which will be demolished at the end of the current leases, to make way for the residential building.

There is a lapsed permit approval on the site, which allowed for an 18-storey building with 339 apartments and 292 car spaces. GURNERTM intends to submit a new planning scheme.

Gurner said he's had his eye on the site for over a decade.

“I have had my eye on this particular site for over a decade, having cut my teeth with Morry Schwartz on 401 St Kilda Road in 2008 across the road so it’s humbling to be able to come full circle with another site now directly across the road some 15 years later, still with the same aspirations to create a new benchmark for residential design just as 401 did at the time."

He said Saint Moritz showed the depth of this end of the market.

"We are excited to evolve and elevate this concept and take it even further with this project. With its prime iconic corner location it will become an iconic landmark for Melbourne so we cannot wait to do this site justice.

Gurner is calling the project a "longer-term play", given there's long-term tenants in the current commercial space.

This is the second acquisition in as many months for the developer after its recent purchase of a significant site in 189 Kent Street, Sydney in July for over $200 million, and is the second seed site in GURNERTM’s Build-to-Sell fund, which is supported by a global institutional investor.

GURNERTM Chief Development Officer Robert Clarke said the team are actively seeking more&nbsp;opportunities in Melbourne and Sydney, with the hope to announce more acquisitions soon.

“It’s a tough environment for developers and commercial asset owners currently, and the effects of interest rate hikes are still yet to really play out across valuations and interest covenants, so we do 
expect to see a continuing trend of office assets being put on the market at discounted 2022 prices.”

Gurner to create "the next St Moritz" at newly acquired St Kilda Road, Melbourne site

When Rothelowman were tasked with designing Stella Maris, the luxury residential development just outside Geelong in Rippleside, their first thought was to incorporate the beauty of the landscape and the significance of the location.

Nick Williams, Senior Associate at Rothelowman, said the design brief from MONNO Projects was to create&nbsp;a dynamic community nestled within the embrace of nature's bounty.

"Our design brief for Stella Maris was to create a dynamic community immersed in nature, with a focus on natural green spaces and a lush garden setting," Williams said, noting the proximity to Corio Bay played a vital role in shaping their vision.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136222 project_image_fid=213722]

The historic St Helen's Mansion, the 1848 stately mansion which sits at the heart of the development, was also a major driver in the design of the surrounding buildings, as were the numerous mature trees which are scattered throughout the three-acre waterfront site.

"St Helen’s Mansion holds the distinction of being one of the oldest remaining homesteads pre-dating the Gold Rush, something Rothelowman took into careful consideration when realising the&nbsp;site vision," Williams said.

"That didn’t mean imitation, but careful consideration to the siting of the four new buildings around it and composing them in a manner that was calm and harmonious in terms of form and&nbsp;materiality."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136222 project_image_fid=213710]

The four new buildings, Nautica House, The Arbory, Park Row and The Acreage, incorporate 54 new apartments and three townhouses. They're built sensitively around St Helen's Mansion, a 3,000 sqm subdivided allotment which will be launching later in the year, with a full restoration and extension planned by Carr.

Williams said the Nautica House building, the closest to Corio Bay, was delivered by formulating a floor plan that granted nearly all apartment bedrooms and living areas a view of Corio Bay through repetitive angled walls.

"Directing the view out east allowed the design to mitigate over-looking St Helen’s Mansions grounds from the apartment bedrooms, creating a more comfortable space for residents."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136222 project_image_fid=213700]

The 'Garden' setting informed much of the Acreage building to the west, Williams added.

"Whilst it is, in reality, a long three-storey apartment building over a basement, it presents as a series of three-storey “walk-up” townhouses facing a heavily planted mews style road and pedestrian way. This meant the Park Row townhouses on Bay Street just sit humbly and comfortably alongside their apartment neighbours with similar materiality and detailing. A&nbsp;magnificent Morton Bay Fig tree separates these three townhouses from the Arbory apartment building providing pedestrian access and vehicular egress from the development."

At the heart of the development is significant resident amenity in the form of a&nbsp;wellness retreat, featuring a 20-metre lap pool and an edible garden, fostering a holistic approach to health and well-being.&nbsp; Adjoining the lap pool is a gym with dedicated yoga space and a steam room.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136222 project_image_fid=213712]

There's also a string of sustainability features such as EV charging, high performance glazing, a&nbsp;communal vegetable gardens and fruit trees.

Williams said Stella Maris has a number of sustainable features that represent a greener approach to architecture.

"EV charging will be future proofed in the development to allow for the anticipated adoption of environmentally friendly vehicles. Solar power will be used in common areas of the buildings whilst all dwellings will be powered solely by electricity in lieu of gas."

Demolition is currently underway at 39 Bay Street, Rippleside, with the project 50 per cent sold. A builder is soon to be announced by developer MONNO Projects.

"A dynamic community immersed in nature" How Rothelowman designed MONNO's Stella Maris

In an environment where many projects have stalled or are unable to secure a builder, Chevron Island’s newest tower, Tapestry, is forging ahead after Siera Property Group expanded its own in-house construction team to deliver the $135 million state-of-the-art project.

This week the future residents of Tapestry got behind the shovels to turn the first sod to mark the start of construction, joined by Cr Darren Taylor and UDIA Queensland CEO Kirsty Chessher-Brown.

The 22-storey sculptural tower has been designed by local architecture firm BDA as a ‘cultural continuation’ of the neighbouring HOTA precinct.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108641 project_image_fid=216184]

SIERA Founder and Managing Director, Brent Thompson, said more than 90 per cent of Tapestry’s purchasers were owner-occupiers, making the construction commencement milestone particularly special.

“Tapestry’s design reflects and celebrates its proximity to both the cultural precinct and the Surfers Paradise beachfront, both of which have become icons of the Gold Coast,’’ Thompson said.

“The building’s defining architectural features pay homage to HOTA with its curved blade walls, while cantilevered balconies rising above the landscaped podium level will frame views to the Nerang River, Surfers Paradise skyline, Gold Coast Hinterland and the arts precinct.

“Our purchasers are excited about what the future will bring living in the heart of this vibrant yet exclusive enclave. They can’t wait to see it come out of the ground.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108641 project_image_fid=205167]

Local newlyweds Carla and Joel Papas-Karanges purchased an apartment at Tapestry in June last year.

“We could see how underrated Chevron Island was and we knew we had to get into Tapestry,” Carla said.

“It’s so liveable with the amount of green space nearby and we can walk anywhere with our dog. Everything we need is here on the island. We feel like it’s going to be the next Burleigh or James Street.

"Tapestry’s design was a big drawcard for us and we love the rooftop. The easy access to HOTA markets and the beach - Chevron Island has everything you need, and the building has everything you need.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108641 project_image_fid=192964]

Thompson said the group’s decision to deliver Tapestry as a developer-builder provided certainty and progress in a volatile construction market.

“SIERA has always been a developer-builder so the decision to deliver Tapestry ourselves is a natural fit,” he said.

“For Tapestry, it afforded us with a unique opportunity to expand our existing in-house team with established builders who have a track record of delivering multi-storey developments on the Coast.

“This combined team will be supported by a handpicked group of skilled sub-contractors and will be one of the best resourced projects on the Gold Coast.’’ Designed in collaboration with innovative local architects BDA, Tapestry comprises 113 luxury two and three-bedroom apartments and a standard of rooftop amenity unrivalled on the Gold Coast.

“Tapestry sets itself apart from all other developments because of its incredible facilities for residents,’’ Thompson said.

“The highlight of these will be the infinity-edge pool with its breath-taking views across Surfers Paradise beaches to the hinterland.’’

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108641 project_image_fid=192961]

Tapestry’s rooftop delivers more than 700 sqm of separate recreation zones for residents to relax, connect and engage in the elevated landscape. It includes a private dining space and kitchen, lounge and fire pit, yoga lawn, pool, spa and sundeck, barbecue and alfresco area, gym, sauna, steam room, and lounge area separated by extensive landscaping.

The rooftop will also feature an edible rooftop garden complete with a tool shed and composting facilities.

Remaining apartments for sale at Tapestry start from $939,900.

The $135 million Tapestry project will be constructed on the 1,518sq m site at 39 Darrambal Street. SIERA’S other Gold Coast projects include Pipis, an 11-storey beachfront residential building on Golden Four Drive in Bilinga, which has just commenced construction, and a 25-storey tower on Enderley Avenue in Surfers Paradise that will be released to the market in 2024.

Prolific Bayside townhome developer Sloane has launched its latest project, in the area's most affluent suburb.

Sloane, led by longtime developer Adam Sloane, has launched 111 Carpenter, a collection of just seven townhomes in one of Brighton's most connected pockets.

"It was all about the location," Sloane said of the Carpenter Street address.

"Brighton offers one of the best lifestyle offerings in Melbourne. There’s the beach, the parks, the café culture, cinemas, retail… it has it all.

"I knew 111 Carpenter was a fantastic, central site for a townhouse project based on the tree lined streets, shops, schools and transport which are all at your door. It is the ideal spot to base your family and explore all that bayside has to offer."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7517 project_image_fid=222382]

Sloane had go-to architectural partner Chris Megowan design 111 Carpenter. Megowan’s brief was to design high calibre, sophisticated and vibrant family homes that capitalise on the site’s expansive northern exposure.

All seven townhouses are north-facing, and some feature a master bedroom on the third level which overlooks neighbouring rooftops.

Each townhouse has either three or four bedrooms across two of three levels. The open plan living area opens through bifold doors to private landscaped gardens by&nbsp;John Patrick Landscape Architects. Each home has a double garage.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7517 project_image_fid=222381]

Megowan, a Brighton local, said he knew exactly how to design to what people in the suburb want.

“The key spaces of each home were strategically oriented to the north and designed with optimised passive solar and ventilation in mind," Megowan says.

“It’s rare to find a development in Melbourne where every dwelling has an ideal orientation and access to at least two exposures for ventilation”.

The terraces and living areas at 111 Carpenter have been designed to receive the optimal amount of sunlight throughout the day which dramatically increases the energy efficiency and thermal comfort of each home. They're positioned so there will be no need for artificial lighting during the day and northern sun is much easier to mitigate in the summer months through the use of eaves and overhangs.

"Lastly, for those who enjoy greenery, a north-facing terrace is ideal for plants to thrive allowing for a more vibrant and verdant outdoor environment."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7517 project_image_fid=214119]

111 Carpenter is the fifth partnership between Sloane, Megowan, and Jellis Craig Projects with Sales Director Stephen Bowtell.

Bowtell says both Sloane and Megowan know exactly&nbsp;what to deliver when it comes to Bayside townhouse developments.

"Adam has a deep expertise in this typology," Bowtell says.

"The experience in developing townhouses designed around liveability and family lifestyle, is what really sets Sloane apart from other developers"

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7517 project_image_fid=218198]

Bowtell is anticipating interest from the family buyer, given the Carpenter St address sits within the catchment to a number of the areas best schools.

"There's apartments in Brighton which are meeting the needs of the downsizer, and then there's the grand mansions Brighton is known for. There's a gap in the market for this type of product, offering house like proportions with lower maintenance in a highly desirable location."

Sloane are looking to start construction early next year, forecasting completion mid-2025.

Paul Conrad is well known in the property world as being one of the go-to architects for the well-heeled across Melbourne's most affluent suburbs.

He's created some of the best homes in the Toorak and wider Stonnington area, while also carrying an enviable workbook overseas. He's designed mansions in Los Angeles and New York, while also lending his interior eye to the Dubai Hotel.

Seldom is there an opportunity for an apartment seeker to call a Paul Conrad design home. Cue ADA Toorak, the project from longtime Melbourne developer Buxton Projects.

ADA Toorak, just 22 apartments on Malvern Road, sits in landscaping by renowned landscape architect Jack Merlo.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=92806 project_image_fid=175567]

Jellis Craig Project Sales Director Stephen Bowtell said Conrad's name is attracting those from the local area who either own, or have an affinity with, high end homes.

"Some of those showing an interest in ADA Toorak have either worked with Conrad before, or have friends or family who have," Bowtell says, adding that Conrad has brought his smarts from luxury homes into a luxury apartment design.

"The designs and configurations of ADA Toorak are heavily weighted to the downsizer or empty nester," Bowtell says.

"The island benches are three meters long, they all have butler's pantries, two dishwashers, everything you'd find in a typical family home. This focus on spacious and functional design is a hallmark of Conrad's work."

Conrad was inspired by the grand garden residences of Toorak, the prestigious, long-standing homes that have defined Toorak’s reputation.

"ADA borrows the sense of stature, proportion, and dignity from these homes and combines it with modern technology and contemporary stylings to create light-filled spaces that offer calm and respite," Conrad says.

"Residents at ADA can expect a living experience that is more akin to a stand-alone home than an apartment. We’ve taken each and every element from our luxury home projects and adapted them for more convenient, low-maintenance apartment living.

"From the feeling of space conferred by the generous layouts, to the relationships between the spaces, to the views to greenery and nature, everything has been carefully considered for its positive impact on everyday living."

The interiors of ADA Toorak are a testament to Conrad's design philosophy, which prioritises longevity and sophistication over fleeting trends. He draws inspiration from a wide range of architectural history, from classical to mid-twentieth-century design.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=92806 project_image_fid=175570]

Conrad's holistic design process sets ADA Toorak apart from other similar developments. He doesn't draw any distinction between architecture and interior design.

"Both elements are equally important to the look and feel of a home, and they need to work together seamlessly. This means every detail is considered in relation to the project as a whole; the façade of the building, the orientation of a room, or the door handles—everything has to speak to each other and resonate with the occupant."

From ground-level homes to the canopy residences, Conrad ensures that ADA Toorak residents experience living that's more akin to a stand-alone home than an apartment.

"We’ve taken each and every element from our luxury home projects and adapted them for more convenient, low-maintenance apartment living," he said.

Seldom is there an opportunity for an apartment seeker to call a Paul Conrad design home.

The Andrews Labor Government is getting on with a package of reforms to the planning system to clear the backlog of approvals and build more homes, faster.

Right now, the system just isn’t working like it should – and decisions aren’t getting made fast enough. Over the last year, the number of dwellings approved across the state fell by 26.1 per cent.

At a council level, there’s a backlog of around 1,400 planning permit applications for multi-unit housing that have been sitting with councils for more than six months waiting for a decision. Some 550 of those applications have been waiting for more than a year.

Of these, 78 projects have a development cost of more than $10 million – and would deliver around 4,900 new homes.

Premier Daniel Andrews said "building, buying, renovating or renting shouldn't be this hard."

"We need to build more homes, with the best design standards, where people want to live. And that means going up and out – not just out," Mr Andrews said.

Minister for Planning Sonya Kilkenny said&nbsp;Victorians deserve a planning system that works with them – not against them.

"It should be a clear, transparent and accountable system – because Victorians deserve to know who is planning our city and state.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5495 project_image_fid=210547]

New data shows Yarra Council progressed just 38 per cent of all applications within the required timeframe – with an average processing time of 188 days.

Stonnington City Council rejected almost one in five planning permit applications – often citing&nbsp;‘neighbourhood character’ when matters are heard at VCAT.

The status quo is not an option. Unless we take bold and decisive action to build the homes people need now, Victorians will be paying the price for generations to come.

We’ll begin the work to clear the backlog of 1,400 housing permit applications that have been stuck with councils for more than 6 months.

By November, we’ll have a&nbsp;dedicated&nbsp;team up and running to work with project proponents, local councils, and referral agencies to resolve issues delaying council decision-making – to avoid projects ending up in VCAT and to get homes built.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=139856 project_image_fid=217344]

The unit in the Department of Transport and Planning will rapidly review multi-unit developments with development costs above $10 million. Once we have a clearer picture of projects and if decisions keep lagging, the Minister for Planning won't hesitate to call them in.

We’ll expand Victoria’s&nbsp;Development Facilitation Program&nbsp;(DFP)&nbsp;–&nbsp;making the Minister for Planning the decision maker for significant residential developments that include affordable housing.

The expanded DFP will streamline the planning process for medium to high density residential developments that meet the set criteria: constructions costs worth at least $50 million in Melbourne or $15 million in regional Victoria, and delivering at least 10 per cent affordable housing. This will include new build-to-rent projects.

If these projects do not meet this criteria, the Minister for Planning can still approve a project if it delivers more than 10 per cent affordable housing, or if it demonstrates best practice design and environmental standards – working to support more longer term rental options for Victorians.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138768 project_image_fid=214857]

Changes to the DFP will mean around 13,200 additional homes will be brought to market that would otherwise be delayed – and it’ll cut application timeframes for these types of projects from more than 12 months down to four.

The Government will also streamline assessment pathways, creating a range of new&nbsp;Deemed to Comply&nbsp;residential standards for different types of homes.

This will speed up decision-making immediately. Fourteen of the current residential development standards will be codified – including north-facing windows objective, overshadowing open space objective and street setback.

The remaining 39 will be reviewed and finalised by September 2024, following targeted consultation. Deemed to Comply matters wil no longer be considered by VCAT.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112174 project_image_fid=199598]

These changes will mean council planners can quickly approve permits for houses that meet the residential standards – and they‘ll only assess aspects of a permit that don’t comply with those standards.

We’ll expand the&nbsp;Future Homes&nbsp;program to encourage more new builds, creating more ready-made architectural designs which can be purchased by developers and adapted to a site through a streamlined planning process.

Currently,&nbsp;Future Homes&nbsp;are plans and processes are only available in the City of Maribyrnong. We‘ll expand the areas where they can be used – extending&nbsp;Future Homes&nbsp;to all general residential zones where development is within 800 metres of an activity centre or railway station.

We’ll also make changes to the types of homes that require planning permits. Single dwellings on lots bigger than 300 square metres, and not covered by an overlay, will no longer require a planning permit.

Single dwellings on lots smaller than 300 square metres, where an overlay doesn’t exist, will be ticked off within 10 days through VicSmart.

For many, the burden of getting a planning approval has put building a second small home, also known as a granny flat, in the too hard basket. We’ll make it easier to build a second small home on your property, with dwelling garden units exempt from the permit process if they’re less than 60 metres.

We’ll also introduce more permit exemptions for single dwellings for things like extensions to sheds and carports.

We’ve already strengthened Victoria’s apartment design standards, with previous reforms improving the internal and external design of new builds. But we know there’s more to do, so we’ll strengthen the existing standards to make sure they deliver the variety of homes Victorians want into the future.

Our clear new standards will ensure appealing, comfortable, sustainable, and fit-for-purpose homes. Stronger design guidance will mean more apartments better suited to families, better accessibility and more functional internal spaces and storate.

Activity centres are prime locations for more housing supply, and more housing choices for Victorians – given how close these centres are to jobs, transport, community spaces and other essential services. But we’ve heard from industry that the rules for individual permits can be too slow, causing bottlenecks with approvals.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105114 project_image_fid=210528]

We’ll introduce clear planning controls to deliver an additional 60,000 homes around an initial 10 activity centres across Melbourne by the end of 2024, with the Minister for Planning taking over the planning work from councils in these areas.

Activity centre plans will guide investment in the things a growing suburb needs like community facilities, public spaces and parks. The program will also consider the best way to incentivise more affordable housing.

The initial 10 activity centres identified are Broadmeadows, Camberwell Junction, Chadstone, Epping, Frankston, Moorabbin, Niddrie (Keilor Road), North Essendon, Preston (High Street) and Ringwood.

Over the longer term and as part of a new plan for Victoria, we’ll look to extend these planning controls to other activity centres across Melbourne, and possibly regional Victoria – boosting housing supply and giving local communities greater certainty over how their suburbs grow.

The Minister for Planning will also lead the work to overhaul the&nbsp;Planning and Environmental Act 1987&nbsp;to create a modern, fit for purpose planning system – with the review’s timeframes to be established in the coming months.

To support the changes above and give industry greater certainty, the Department of Transport and Planning will bolster its resources in the coming months – including by bringing on 90 new planners.

Premier Daniel Andrews said "building, buying, renovating or renting shouldn't be this hard."

Andrews Labor Government to ramp up apartment approvals across Melbourne

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mayd-group">MAYD Group</a> has set a new residential price record in Queensland with the $30 million sale of the penthouse at its <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/one-burleigh-88-the-esplanade-burleigh-heads-qld-4220">ONE Burleigh</a> development in Burleigh Heads.

The sale equates to around $37,500 per sqm.

The two-level, 800 sqm penthouse, featuring five bedrooms, five bathrooms, five car spaces, and a private infinity pool overlooking the Pacific Ocean, was acquired by a Gold Coast-based entrepreneur, highlighting continued demand for ultra-premium beachfront product.

Selling agent Freddie Tehle of PRD Burleigh Heads said the result reflects tightening supply of high-quality, large-format apartments in Burleigh.

“There’s very limited opportunity to secure this level of scale and absolute beachfront position in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/burleigh-heads-qld-4220">Burleigh Heads</a>,” Tehle said.

“Buyers are increasingly seeking apartments that genuinely replace a standalone home, and this penthouse delivers that with its size, privacy, and direct ocean frontage.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146358 project_image_fid=323057]

The sale comes as construction progresses on ONE Burleigh, a boutique development of 17 full-floor residences at 88 The Esplanade, scheduled for completion in early 2027.

Developed by MAYD Group and designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/mas-architecture-studio">MAS Architecture</a> with interiors by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/interior-designers/sici-design">Sici Design</a>, the project has been positioned as a collection of house-sized beachfront apartments, each occupying an entire floor with around 381 sqm of internal and external living space.

When construction commenced, MAYD director Todd Mould pointed to the long-term resilience of premium coastal real estate as a key driver behind the project.

“Real estate, particularly at the premium end, remains one of the most resilient and proven long-term investment avenues,” Mould said.

“Our ambition is that anyone who buys a MAYD-built product can genuinely feel the care, craftsmanship and commitment we bring to every detail.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146358 project_image_fid=323055]

Each residence has been configured with four bedrooms, multiple living zones, a private office, and expansive ocean-facing terraces. Interiors draw on a restrained material palette, including travertine stone, timber joinery, and integrated premium appliances.

Interior designer Sici Design said the approach was to reflect the project’s coastal setting through both materiality and spatial planning.

“ONE Burleigh is our vision of luxury living, designed to bring the essence of Burleigh Heads' vibrant coastal beauty into an unparalleled residential experience.”

Residents will have access to a suite of wellness-focused amenities, including pools, sauna facilities, and dedicated relaxation spaces, reflecting a broader shift toward lifestyle-driven apartment design on the Gold Coast.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146358 project_image_fid=323052]

The project occupies a southern Esplanade site with uninterrupted beachfront frontage, an increasingly rare offering in Burleigh Heads, free from the Norfolk Pines that line much of the coastline and often limit direct ocean outlook.

Mould said the design intent was to balance that outlook with a sense of retreat.

“Living at ONE Burleigh is about how your day naturally unfolds, morning light across the ocean, coffee on the balcony, and being in Burleigh but elevated above the noise.”

The result further reinforces Burleigh Heads’ emergence as one of the Gold Coast’s most tightly held and supply-constrained beachfront markets, where boutique, owner-occupier-focused developments are increasingly setting new price benchmarks.

Apartment developers in the Gold Coast are finding new, creative ways to differentiate themselves from competing projects, as new supply starts to flow through up and down the Coast.

Developer Big Projects brought in the renowned Sydney-based design studio YSG to craft the interiors for The Frederick, Big Projects' new Mermaid Beach project and YSG's first move into the multi-residential development space.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110588 project_image_fid=5346]

It was a strategic move for Big Projects to bring in a Sydney eye to the development.

“Our role is to give our design partners the space and freedom to explore,” says Matt Barrett, Director of Big Projects.

“We wanted YSG Studio to capture the essence of Nobby’s, to design a building that embraces life, light and connection, while creating a genuine sense of place.”

There are only 39 apartments in The Frederick, including a striking beach house, just 100 metres from the booming Nobby Beach precinct.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110588 project_image_fid=5347]

Yasmine Ghoniem, Director of YSG Studio, says their vision&nbsp;for The Frederick "reinvents coastal living."

“Nobby’s has such an iconic energy, it’s one of those rare pockets of the Gold Coast where the community, the beach, and the streets all feel connected,” Ghoniem says.

"Responding to the neighbouring coastline, soothing curves add a relaxing regional overlay, while unique detailing really sets it apart. It’s a place that feels lived in from the moment you step inside.”

A standout feature of The Frederick is its rooftop terrace, an uncommon inclusion for a boutique, low-rise building, where amenity is typically concentrated at ground level.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110588 project_image_fid=5360]

Positioned to capture panoramic views from the hinterland to the ocean, the rooftop has been designed as a series of intimate zones. It includes a pool, sauna, sun decks, workspaces and dedicated entertaining areas.

“The rooftop was conceived as a collection of spaces where residents can unwind and connect, an extension of the Nobby’s lifestyle,” Barrett says.

Architecture for the project was led by Plus Architecture, with landscape design by LDG.

SRQ Projects Director Nick Clydsdale, who is handling sales at The Frederick, says the majority of enquiry is coming from South East QLD and Victorian buyers who have been actively searching between Broadbeach and Mermaid Beach for some time.

"They’ve reviewed a number of projects, however this one has stood out for its design flair/ appeal,"&nbsp;Clydsdale says.

Site demolition is slated for this month, with construction commencing soon after. Big Projects is targeting a late 2027 completion.

Big Projects taps Sydney’s YSG for first multi-residential project at The Frederick Mermaid Beach

Melbourne-based property developer ALTA Property has this week achieved planning approval for the adaptive re-use of a former commercial tower into a $200 million, 169-apartment project at 10 Queens Road, one of the last developable sites along the Albert Park Lake-fronting boulevard.&nbsp;

Set within one of Melbourne’s most sought-after precincts and designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/fraser-partners-0">Fraser and Partners</a>, the illustrious building will offer unparalleled views across Albert Park Lake, Port Phillip Bay and Melbourne CBD.&nbsp;

The mix of 1, 2 and 3-bedroom residences will be complemented by a ground-floor amenity featuring private dining, a lounge bar, gym and wellness spaces, co-working, outdoor communal gardens, and retail.&nbsp;

The 17-storey building is a masterclass in adaptive re-use, with the existing commercial building’s façade, shell and internal structure to be retained, before high-end residences are built from the ground up in a newly built Albert Park facing addition to the building.&nbsp;

Sitting atop the building will be two 320+sqm penthouses with private rooftop terraces, which are expected to be priced between $9 - $11 million.&nbsp;

<img alt="ALTA Property achieves permit approval for $200 million Queens Road tower" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="aa11211b-5581-43f9-940c-fc84d30a0e61" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/C_04.png?VersionId=Yhf5p_1EgGDu_zOIMFgvA8Ug8j3sTFQs" />

Architecturally, the building will feature a curved, geometric façade that celebrates and elevates the existing structure, with warm, muted tones which were selected to extend the materiality of the existing building rather than contrast it.&nbsp;

Interiors will bring together three metre high ceilings with waffle concrete in some spaces, natural timber, granite and Australian materials, culminating in crafted, generous and considered spaces that are defined by authenticity.&nbsp;

The adaptive re-use means that the Queens Road project will be a sustainability led, high-quality finished product, with a 62% saving in carbon emissions by re-using the existing structure rather than knocking it down and rebuilding.&nbsp;

ALTA Property was launched by Nigel Givoni in 2023, bringing over 25 years of experience in multi level residential delivery.&nbsp;

Melbourne’s property market growth is currently led by apartments. According to RPM VIC Apartments &amp; Townhomes Market Report (April 2026), units are outpacing houses, especially in the middle ring suburbs where median prices hit $757,500 – a four-year high that represents 2.9 percent growth quarter-on-quarter.&nbsp;

<img alt="ALTA Property achieves permit approval for $200 million Queens Road tower" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="647e13d7-b4bc-433a-9bc9-fe3c3dd4f2ec" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/V_06.png?VersionId=ou4NUCWUgA3NAy.6CQJlEdKX50j3dOk6" />

For ALTA Property Founder Nigel Givoni, this performance speaks to the confidence he has in the Melbourne market.&nbsp;

“Queens Road represents a rare opportunity to continue to shape our presence in the Melbourne market.,"&nbsp;Givoni says.

"With a considered project team and a premier site along one of the city’s most sought-after boulevards, we look forward to contributing to the fabric of this established address.

“Other Australian markets are getting a lot of attention, but I believe the depth of value in Melbourne is being overlooked. The fundamentals are strong, population growth is steady and, based on our preliminary conversations with a leading builder, construction costs are beginning to normalise, creating further opportunity."

Givoni says the project is a&nbsp;highly considered example of adaptive re-use, delivering quality, high-end residences, premium hotel-inspired amenities and an architecturally striking façade, all achieved without the need to remove the existing structure.

"We are really looking forward to the market’s response,” he said.&nbsp;

ALTA Property to deliver $200 million Queens Road apartment tower

Construction is set to begin at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/orchard-mews-glen-iris-18-scott-grove-glen-iris-vic-3146">Orchard Mews</a> in Glen Iris, with&nbsp;PC Whitehall &amp; Sons&nbsp;now appointed as the townhome development moves into its next phase.

The development by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/montcoeur">MontCoeur</a>,&nbsp;located at 18 Scott Grove, is now around 30 per cent sold, with completion targeted for late-2027.

Orchard Mews comprises a curated collection of three- and four-bedroom customisable townhomes, positioned within one of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/glen-iris-vic-3146">Glen Iris</a>’ more tightly held residential streets. The low-density project has been designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cera-stribley-architects">Cera Stribley</a>, with landscape architecture by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/jack-merlo">Jack Merlo</a>, bringing together a team known for high-end residential projects across Melbourne.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150128 project_image_fid=366285]

The development is defined by its focus on flexible living and long-term usability. Each residence includes multiple living zones and a customisable multipurpose room, allowing buyers to tailor spaces to suit changing needs, whether as a home office, additional bedroom, wellness area or entertainment space.

Architecturally, the townhomes emphasise natural light and spatial volume, with dual-aspect layouts and double-height living areas incorporated into the design. Interiors feature natural stone benchtops, premium appliances, and a neutral material palette intended to support everyday functionality rather than statement-driven finishes.

All residences are all-electric and include private lifts and secure double garages, reflecting a broader shift toward sustainability and future-focused housing in Melbourne’s established suburbs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150128 project_image_fid=366277]

Outdoor connections are also central to the offering, with a mix of private courtyards and terraces extending internal living spaces and integrating with the landscaped surrounds.

The Scott Grove address places Orchard Mews within close proximity to some of Melbourne’s key lifestyle and education amenities, including Scotch College, Sacré Cœur, Cabrini Hospital and the retail hub of Chadstone. Public transport access is also nearby, with trams and Gardiner Station providing connectivity to the CBD and surrounding suburbs.

A rare new apartment development has been proposed on the fringe of St Ives Village.

Developer Newquest Property has lodged plans for a low-rise apartment project designed by well-regarded architecture firm Warren &amp; Mahoney, which is best known for its work in the multi-residential sector in Melbourne.

The building, proposed for a 1,916 sqm site on <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/st-ives-residences-3-5-memorial-avenue-nsw-2075">Memorial Avenue</a> opposite St Ives Village Green, has been designed to blend into the surrounding natural environment.

<img alt="St Ives" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="5c1c7437-2fba-4345-a6d7-05321714ad3e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-04%20at%201.28.46%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=KrYyMaJvNqR7vbx0xbB3Ef8sJ6FuHpmn" />

“Drawing inspiration from the pale trunks and flowering canopies of the scribbly gums and blue gums prevalent in the area, a considered material palette was developed,” the architectural design report states.

“This palette references the established materiality of the suburb while elevating it through refined finishes to achieve a more luxurious architectural expression.”

Of the 33 apartments proposed, 21 will be three-bedroom residences. The remaining mix includes nine two-bedroom apartments, one one-bedroom apartment and two four-bedroom residences. The development will be supported by 62 car parking spaces and 33 secure bicycle spaces.

The proposal would replace two single-storey brick buildings currently on the site.

<img alt="St Ives" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="21422eaf-09a9-4439-9278-b9bd9daf22a1" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-04%20at%201.38.10%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=v.fXSgcUcEscvOZzqcjG5nk3gVqk_Amt" />

St Ives remains a relatively untapped market for new apartment development. North Shore developer WINIM has a number of projects in the area, while INCA is nearing completion of Ellis Residences.

More recently, Traders In Purple has lodged plans for one of the denser projects proposed in the suburb, a 75-apartment development on a 5,900 sqm site on Cowan Road.

NewQuest, a construction, design and development firm, has delivered over 24 projects across commercial, residential, industrial, and lad markets.&nbsp;
