<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/beulah">Beulah</a>&nbsp;has unveiled its latest release of exclusive homes in its sustainable Brunswick townhouse development, Brunswick Established.

The collection, known as ‘The Courtyard House’, has been created in collaboration with Six Degrees Architects to meet the evolving needs of modern families.&nbsp;

With a central courtyard at its heart, the design reimagines the possibilities of multi-generational living, blending flexibility, sustainability and personalisation within a heritage setting. Distinct from a traditional garden, the courtyard delivers natural light, fresh air and a generous sense of space, without the upkeep of a backyard.

Comprised of 23 two-storey townhouses, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/brunswick-established-23-hodgson-st-brunswick-vic-3056">Brunswick Established</a> offers multiple typologies of townhomes to suit different living requirements, allowing residents to grow in place - majority include ground-floor bedrooms for accessibility, while others, known as the ‘The Courtyard House’, provide a unique, flexible detached space separated by a courtyard.

Responsible for both the architecture and interior design, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/six-degrees-architects">Six Degrees</a>’ holistic approach enabled the team to ensure an intrinsic link between the design outcomes; a seamless, harmonious flow from the outside to within.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136451 project_image_fid=275571]

“The modern home should flow from inside to outside - the courtyard provides a space which joins the different parts of the home together as the central outside space of the home,” explains Six Degrees Director, Peter Malatt.

“The courtyard is a model used since ancient times, transforming the home from an object within a space to an object enclosing space. It acts as both the visual and social heart of the home, a space to gather, reflect, or simply pause, offering a moment of calm within a busy urban context."

“Courtyards also offer a deeply cultural and emotional resonance, with their timeless presence across human history. They connect us to the past, while shaping how we live today

Malatt says the courtyard also operates as a micro-climate, which can retain heat in winter and be a shaded haven in summer.

"The ability to take warmed or cooled air into the home from the courtyard space is a great way to improve internal health and minimise energy use through heating and cooling. In a compact urban environment like Brunswick, courtyards are also a clever solution - bringing light, greenery and nature into denser living formats while maintaining a strong sense of privacy and connection."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136451 project_image_fid=270371]

This concept resonated strongly with early downsizers who recently purchased one of the Courtyard homes at Brunswick Established for themselves and their two adult sons, aged 21 and 24.

“We’re excited to have a home that gives us flexibility as our lives evolve, whether it’s our sons living with us as they finish university, or us being able to lock up and travel. Having separate spaces connected by the courtyard is perfect for our family dynamic, especially as we value our independence but also want to stay close,” they shared.

The couple, who also share their home with two dogs and two cats, highlighted the benefits of multi-generational living in a courtyard home.

“Our sons help care for the pets, we enjoy cooking and spending time together, and the courtyard means we have light, greenery, and privacy all in one. We love that Brunswick Established has thought about sustainability and customisation in such a detailed way, it’s rare to find that in a project.”

Beulah’s approach to design customisation at Brunswick Established, allowing residents to adapt layouts to their lifestyle, has been a major drawcard for buyers seeking homes that evolve alongside them. The detached living space offers flexibility to suit changing needs, whether as a studio, guest retreat, or home office, while maintaining a close link to the main residence, allowing family members to come together or enjoy privacy when needed.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136451 project_image_fid=275570]

Malatt added that the&nbsp;homes have been designed for residents’ well-being, allowing couples and families to ‘grow’ in their own homes while ensuring they meet their needs for generations to come.

"Purchasers usually experience multiple lifestyle stages within one home, and we’re looking forward to seeing these unique homes come to life."

As part of this forward-thinking approach, Beulah will also host an exclusive event, The Property Market Decanted, on Wednesday 27 August at The Commons Café &amp; Cocktail Bar, Melbourne. The evening will feature insights from leading property and finance experts on Melbourne’s market outlook and long-term wealth creation strategies, particularly for multi-generational households.&nbsp;

Property developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/gamuda-land">Gamuda Land</a> has topped out its Fareham apartment development on St Kilda Road.

Markscon has completed the 16-storey structure and remains on track to deliver the entire building by early 2026.

“Topping out marks more than just structural progress — it represents our long-term vision to create sustainable, well-integrated neighbourhoods that add real value to the communities around them,” said Jess Teng, Chief Operating Officer, Gamuda Land.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/fareham-st-kilda-95-st-kilda-road-st-kilda-vic-3182">Fareham</a>, one of the few new developments currently on the market in St Kilda, responds directly to its location along the iconic St Kilda Road. The project is targeting an average 8-star NatHERS rating, well above standard requirements for new apartment buildings.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=137950 project_image_fid=281439]

The development incorporates a range of sustainable features that support energy efficiency, occupant comfort, and long-term operational performance. Fareham is enabled to operate on zero carbon energy, including an onsite 20kW array and access to 100% renewable electricity. As an all-electric building, Fareham has been designed without gas connections, further supporting low-emission living.

Its design includes open-air internal corridors — among the tallest of their kind in Melbourne — and enables cross-flow ventilation in 80% of apartments. High levels of daylight access to living and bedroom areas enhance thermal comfort and reduce reliance on artificial lighting. Water-sensitive design has also been integrated, with rainwater collected and reused for landscape irrigation and toilet flushing.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=137950 project_image_fid=281447]

With just five apartments per floor, Fareham offers a low-density living environment that prioritises privacy and space. Its architectural form and orientation take cues from the surrounding coastal character, maximising natural light, breezes, and views — evoking the openness and comfort of beachside living.

Located within close reach of St Kilda Beach, Fitzroy Street’s dining scene, and Albert Park Lake, the development is also well-connected to public transport and cultural destinations across Melbourne.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=137950 project_image_fid=281446]

Gamuda Land is progressing on a similar timeline with its other Melbourne apartment project, The Canopy in Fishermans Bend, which also recently topped out and is scheduled for completion in early 2026. That project is being delivered by Crema Constructions.

“At both Fishermans Bend and St Kilda Road, we’ve embedded environmental performance and community benefit from the earliest stages," Teng added.

"These projects are not only designed for lower operational impact but also to elevate liveability for residents. We believe that sustainable urban homes must be thoughtful, resilient, and connected — and these developments reflect that ethos.”

Gamuda currently has over 60 infrastructure and engineering projects underway across Australia. It recently expanded its local presence through the acquisition of DT Infrastructure and Tunnelling Solutions (TunSol) — the infrastructure projects division of ASX-listed Downer Group.

Hampton's High Street offers the best of both worlds; halfway between Hampton Beach and Hampton Station, with a myriad of cafes and shops on its doorstep.

It was this unbeatable combination of convenience and connectivity that attracted Nash Project Management to secure a prime site on the corner of Hampton and Holyrood Streets several years ago.

The result is <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/holyrood-hampton-451-461-hampton-street-hampton-vic-3188">Holyrood &amp; Hampton</a>, a newly completed residential development comprising 59 premium apartments set above a full-line Coles supermarket, enhancing the day-to-day ease for residents.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4629 project_image_fid=1530]

Those who have already moved into Holyrood &amp; Hampton have highlighted several standout features of their new home, with the location topping the list.

Hampton Station on the Sandringham line (Zone 2), is just down Hampton Street, offering regular services to Flinders Street Station. Multiple bus routes connect to Southland, St Kilda, and Berwick, while scenic cycling paths along the bay provide a relaxing alternative for commuters and weekend riders.

A short walk west leads to Picnic Point and Hampton Beach, beloved for its clean sand and family- and dog-friendly spaces. Ferdinando Gardens, near the pier, is perfect for picnics, while coastal walking trails offer peaceful views and breezes.

The surrounding green spaces—Castlefield Reserve, Triangle Gardens, and Hampton High Reserve—offer playgrounds, sports fields, and a sense of calm. Golfers have several options nearby, including Brighton Public Golf Course just a short drive away.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4629 project_image_fid=1528]

Hampton Street remains the heart of the community, with more than 50 fashion boutiques, cafés, and eateries. A Woolworths anchors the retail strip, while independent shops help maintain its village charm.

Health and community services are easily accessible, with local GPs, dental clinics, and the nearby Sandringham Community Hospital, supported by larger hospitals in Brighton and Cheltenham.

Families are well catered to, with top private and public schools within a 1–2 km radius. These include Haileybury College, St Leonards College, Firbank Grammar, Brighton Grammar, Hampton Primary, and Brighton Secondary College.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4629 project_image_fid=1532]

The apartments have been designed for longevity, with spacious, home-like layouts. Many include butler’s pantries, oversized kitchen islands, and quality finishes.

Additional features such as a rooftop terrace, EV charging, secure storage, and direct supermarket access support a highly functional and low-maintenance lifestyle.

Designed by Telha Clarke, Holyrood &amp; Hampton reflects how people want to live today—connected, walkable, and move-in ready.

Developer Keylin is putting its mark on the booming Spring Hill property market, one of the strongest markets in Queensland which is being driven by the announcement that the heart of the Brisbane 2032 Summer Olympics will be developed in the small northern Brisbane suburb.

Well-regarded in the development industry, with several completed and planned projects across Brisbane and the Gold Coast, Keylin has just launched <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/oria-spring-hill-447-gregory-terrace-spring-hill-qld-4000">Oria Spring Hill</a>, a collection of 132 residences across 15 levels in an elevated position on Gregory Terrace, directly opposite Victoria Park, the future site of the Games.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109146 project_image_fid=1014]

<h3 data-end="628" data-start="610">The Apartments</h3>

The two, three, and four-bedroom apartments feature an Art Deco-inspired design, with curved stone kitchen islands, brass textures, and bold interior colours and patterns. Durable mineral stone benchtops come as standard, while the skyhomes feature natural stone.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109146 project_image_fid=1078]

There are two colour schemes available for buyers to choose from: the bold Victoria scheme, or the more neutral Gregory scheme.

Each apartment offers open-plan living and dining areas, as well as a large, covered balcony to embrace Brisbane's subtropical lifestyle. The living spaces are designed with full-height glazing to maximize views over Victoria Park and the Brisbane CBD.

<h3 data-end="1305" data-start="1288">The Amenities</h3>

Leaning into its Olympic location, Keylin is introducing unique amenities that cater to changing lifestyle requirements.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109146 project_image_fid=1018]

Much like the shift developers made during the pandemic to include study nooks and multi-purpose rooms in response to the work-from-home trend, Keylin has responded to the growing popularity of pickleball. Oria will feature a proposed private pickleball court as part of its facilities, one of the first courts in a new residential development across the country.

Pickleball participation has surged in Australia from 2023 to 2024. In 2023, Pickleball Australia Association (PAA) had over 7,300 members, with an estimated 25,000 casual players nationwide. By 2024, PAA membership had grown to 15,166, with nearly 93,000 participants across the country.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109146 project_image_fid=1031]

In addition to the proposed pickleball court, Oria will offer a range of proposed amenities within its rooftop pool and terrace level, including a cinema, music and games room, private dining spaces, and a gym with a steam room, sauna, and yoga space, as well as an off-leash dog area.

<h3 data-end="2353" data-start="2337">The Location</h3>

Keylin understood the prime value of this location long before the announcement that Victoria Park would be the heart of the 2032 Summer Olympics.

The address at 447 Gregory Terrace provides residents with easy access to major transport links, universities, and hospitals.

Of course, the future growth of the area will be anchored by Victoria Park, the 64-hectare green space just across the road. The park will be transformed with the construction of a 63,000-seat stadium, which, after the Olympics, will become home to the Brisbane Lions, Brisbane Heat, and Queensland Bulls.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109146 project_image_fid=1023]

Just 200 meters from Oria, the new National Aquatic Centre will replace the former Centenary Pool.

Additionally, the nearby RNA Showgrounds, just 700 meters away, will undergo an upgrade to include a 20,000-seat outdoor arena.

Keylin has already commenced construction on Oria, which is being delivered by builder CoStruct.
