Construction is underway at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/kings-lane-south-kingsville-50-58-new-street-south-kingsville-vic-3015">Kings Lane</a>, a boutique townhouse development by local developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/blue-run">Blue Run</a> in Melbourne’s inner-west suburb of South Kingsville, with completion targeted for Q3 2026.

The 25-residence project is taking shape at 56 New Street, responding to sustained demand for low-density, family-oriented housing in established inner-urban locations where standalone homes have increasingly moved out of reach.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=145042 project_image_fid=355141]

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a>, Kings Lane comprises a mix of three and four-bedroom townhouses, all-electric and arranged to prioritise privacy, internal space, and long-term liveability. The homes are priced from $995,000, positioning the project among a shrinking cohort of new-build townhouses within eight kilometres of the Melbourne CBD.&nbsp;

The architecture and interiors reflect Rothelowman’s focus on practical, enduring design. Kitchens are configured as central living spaces with porcelain benchtops, Fisher &amp; Paykel appliances, and generous island benches, while bathrooms and ensuites incorporate skylights, double vanities, and full-sized baths. Across the homes, layouts emphasise efficient circulation and clearly defined living and sleeping zones.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=145042 project_image_fid=355144]

Sustainability has been embedded into the project’s construction and performance profile. Each residence is fully electric, supported by rooftop solar, double glazing, and water-sensitive urban design measures. The development will achieve a 7-Star NatHERS rating, with EV charging provisions included to support future household needs.

Landscape design by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/john-patrick-landscape-architects">John Patrick Landscape Architects</a> introduces private courtyards and shared green spaces, using layered planting and native species to enhance privacy while reinforcing a sense of neighbourhood connection.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=145042 project_image_fid=355140]

Kings Lane is located just off Blackshaws Road, within walking distance of the Vernon Street shopping strip and the emerging Union Quarter retail precinct. Broader amenity is provided by nearby centres including Altona Gate, Yarraville Square, and Williamstown’s retail strip, while Edwards Reserve and Newport Lakes offer accessible green space.

Transport connectivity remains a key drawcard, with Spotswood Station within walking distance and the West Gate Freeway only a short drive away. Recent major infrastructure upgrades associated with the West Gate Tunnel project have further improved access to the CBD and Melbourne Airport.&nbsp;

With construction now underway and delivery forecast for Q3 2026, Kings Lane adds to a limited pipeline of new townhouse supply in the inner-west.

Developer Polycell has commenced the sales campaign for its highly-anticipated redevelopment of the Sandpiper Resort in Broadbeach.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/sandpiper-broadbeach-155-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">Sandpiper</a>, a new 51-storey tower on Old Burleigh Road, is yet to officially launch to the public, but&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/motiv">MOTIV</a>&nbsp;have already secured over $300 million in sales through its pre-market coming soon campaign.

Nearly 100 of the 204 apartments have been snapped up in the space of four weeks.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149910 project_image_fid=360186]

“We’ve seen strong early momentum for Sandpiper through a highly curated, VIP-only campaign, well ahead of the full public launch,” said Carly Cottam, Director at MOTIV.

“That response speaks to the depth of demand we’re seeing from design-literate buyers who are actively seeking a more refined coastal lifestyle in Broadbeach.”&nbsp;

The interest to date has come from a mix of downsizers, interstate lifestyle buyers from NSW and Victoria, and short-term investors seeking flexible, well-appointed holiday homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149910 project_image_fid=360185]

Rising just shy of 200 metres above Old Burleigh Road, Sandpiper comprises 204 two-, three-, and four-bedroom apartments, as well as an exclusive range of half and full floor residences from levels 42 and above.

Residences are offered across two distinct tiers: the Classic Residences, which deliver resort-style living with curated services and Level 4 amenity access; and the Private Residences, located from Level 26 upward, offering elevated finishes and exclusive access to two more levels of wellness retreat.&nbsp;

Buyers will have the option of&nbsp;two light palettes (white or green stone) and one dark palette (black stone), along with premium inclusions such as optional ZipTap systems and timber flooring upgrades. Upper level residences benefit from full stone benchtops and enhanced detailing, reinforcing the project’s commitment to understated elegance.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149910 project_image_fid=360200]

A major point of difference for Sandpiper lies in its wellness and lifestyle amenity, designed to rival top-tier branded residences, without the hotel badge. All residents will have access to the Level 4 retreat, which includes a magnesium lagoon pool, gym, yoga room, steam and sauna, hot and cold plunge pools, treatment suites, BBQ areas, indoor and outdoor lounges, private dining and games rooms.

Above, the Residents’ Club, exclusive to Private Residence owners, spans two entire levels and features another pool, further wellness zones, a zen garden, personal training gym, office suites, cinema, music studio, library, club lounge and multiple entertaining spaces.

Further reinforcing this sense of exclusivity, Sandpiper has been thoughtfully designed with separate entrances, lobbies and lift cores for the Classic and Private Residences, ensuring privacy for the upper residence-only levels and a seamless arrival experience.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149910 project_image_fid=360190]

“This momentum builds on the proven success of The Rochester Broadbeach, which continues to progress ahead of programme,” Cottam added.

“That delivery performance has been critical in reinforcing buyer confidence and further cements Polycell’s strength as both developer and builder in this market.”&nbsp;

With demolition underway and development approval secured, Sandpiper is on track to commence main construction in late July 2026, following the completion of demolition. Final completion of the project is forecast for July 2030.

Leading Australian developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/homecorp">Homecorp</a> has officially kicked off construction on its $210 million Florence Residences, ushering in the Gold Coast’s next era of wellness-infused luxury as the city continues to top sales charts nationwide.&nbsp;

Rising 26-storeys above the Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach skylines, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/florence-residences-24-monte-carlo-avenue-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">Florence Residences</a> will deliver 120 curated homes paired with a private residents’ only wellness club including a resort-style rooftop pool, hot and cold plunge pools, a spa retreat, contemporary gymnasium and a spacious yoga and Pilates studio.&nbsp;

The project is anticipated to complete in late 2027.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150414 project_image_fid=357947]

“This project was an opportunity to deliver something truly special for the Gold Coast," said Ron Bakir, Founder and CEO of Homecorp.

"We have listened and we have researched to develop a project that has been designed to meet a powerful shift in what buyers are craving around the world. The wellness residential market is one of Australia’s fastest-growing sectors and we wanted to deliver a place that feels like an escape from the everyday.

“Florence Residences is a community where architecture, lifestyle and wellness converge, designed as a home for the future, one that will truly stand the test of time. A place that can be passed down through generations, in a city where lifestyle never compromises. With construction underway, we mark not just the beginning of a build, but the start of a new era for our buyers, for Surfers Paradise and for the Gold Coast.”

Beyond each residence, the Eastern European-inspired project introduces a holistic lifestyle destination within one of the city’s most exclusive coastal and park-side enclaves, boasting social and community-focused spaces, including a resident-only lounge with private dining and a rooftop bar, premium outdoor entertaining areas, a striking hotel-style lobby lounge, generous bike parking and pet-friendly perks including a heated dog wash.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150414 project_image_fid=357946]

Mayor of the City of the Gold Coast, Councillor Tom Tate, said&nbsp;Florence Residences offers more variety of high-quality product for the Gold Coast, featuring a lot of rare wellness facilities for buyers chasing a lifestyle with a large focus on health.

"This project is one of the best to be bought to our skyline," Tate says.

"This city has something for everyone and in the lead up to the 2032 Olympics, projects like this are important to provide more homes for Gold Coasters."

Buyer demand on the Gold Coast remained exceptionally strong in the third quarter of 2025, with the region home to Australia’s highest-selling residential developments, including Homecorp’s $250 million Cienna Varsity Ridge Stage Two which led national results, selling out all 289 apartments and outperforming more than 161 developments across the country.

“The Gold Coast is truly growing and we have an opportunity to provide not only housing for local residents, but offer a lifestyle that you can’t find anywhere else," Gold Coast Councillor Darren Taylor says.

"From Surfers Paradise to the Gold Coast, those that call this area home are chasing a lifestyle that’s connected with access to the light rail and nestled between the gardens and the iconic coastline.

“Construction commencing at Florence Residences is really exciting for this city. Demand is continuing to soar across the Gold Coast, particularly in Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach, and this is a project that is helping to meet that demand.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150414 project_image_fid=357950]

From coastal horizons to Hinterland contours and calm waterways, each residence is framed by a unique outlook that evokes a sense of calm, clarity and connection. Perfectly positioned, the project is just minutes from world-class dining, shopping and entertainment in Broadbeach and Surfers Paradise.

Florence Residences officially launched to the market in late 2025, with prices beginning from $1,249,000.

Construction has commenced&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kew-palm-house-bellevue-hill-88-birriga-road-bellevue-hill-nsw-2023">Kew Palm House</a>, marking a significant milestone for the boutique Bellevue Hill apartment project on one of the suburb's best streets.

Developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/kew">KEW</a> recently hosted the traditional ground-breaking ceremony, joined by key project partners, officially turning the soil on what will become one of Bellevue Hill's most impressive new developments in one of&nbsp;Sydney’s most tightly held residential markets.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=133966 project_image_fid=352214]

Set across two low-rise buildings on the dress circle Birriga Road, Kew Palm House will deliver a mix of 16 two-, three-, and four-bedroom residences, including whole-floor homes and penthouses, responding to sustained demand from downsizers and owner-occupiers seeking high-quality apartment living without leaving the suburb.

The project occupies an amalgamated 3,000 sqm site bordering the Royal Sydney Golf Club, a rarity for new apartment development in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/bellevue-hill-nsw-2023">Bellevue Hill</a>.

Architecture by Woods Bagot takes a townhome-inspired approach, with finely detailed façades and layered massing designed to sit comfortably within the established streetscape.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=133966 project_image_fid=352216]

The buildings are surrounded by landscaped gardens by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/dangar-barin-smith">Dangar Barin Smith</a>, with communal pathways leading to a pool house and shared alfresco spaces intended to support a quieter, more residential form of apartment living.

Interiors will feature natural materials including travertine, stone and engineered timber, alongside V-ZUG kitchen appliances, with layouts prioritising generous proportions, privacy and indoor-outdoor connection.

Each residence has been designed to maximise natural light while maintaining separation from neighbouring homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=133966 project_image_fid=352222]

Kew Palm House forms part of KEW’s growing Eastern Suburbs portfolio under the Positive Investment Enterprise group. It follows the completion of Kew Bondi on Bondi Road, with Kew Hillcrest in Rose Bay also currently under construction. Palm House reflects the developer’s longer-term commitment to Bellevue Hill, where opportunities for new, design-led apartment projects remain limited.

Kew Palm House is targeting completion in late 2027, with construction to be delivered by Harvestland Construction. KEW also has Kew Hillcrest in Rose Bay under construction, just six luxury apartments near the beach.

Longstanding local builder-developer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/gwh">GWH</a> has broken ground on its flagship Newcastle West development, ERA,&nbsp;signalling a significant step forward for what will become the city’s newest residential address.&nbsp;

The milestone marks the beginning of construction on the 266-apartment project, which GWH describes as a defining moment in its continued growth across the region.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/era-newcastle-west-124-126-bull-street-newcastle-west-nsw-2302">ERA</a> has been more than two years in planning, shaped through collaboration with financier Qualitas and its design project partners from&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/fk-australia">FK Australia</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/oculus">OCULUS</a>.

Before the first sod was turned, over 50 per cent of the building has been snapped up,&nbsp;a sign of buyer confidence in both the development itself and inner-city Newcastle more broadly.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=351103]

Positioned on Bull Street in Newcastle West, the dual-tower project will introduce 266 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, supported by more than 2,000 sqm of resident amenity including a podium pool deck, gym, sauna, cinema room and two rooftop terraces with harbour and ocean views.

Designed by FK Australia, ERA aims to set a new benchmark for urban living in Newcastle. The architecture positions the towers as a new marker on the city skyline, while the interiors emphasise daylight, generous glazing and modern finishes. Large balconies, thoughtful storage and contemporary kitchens cater to the growing owner-occupier demand in the CBD.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=351104]

GWH says ERA represents “continued momentum for GWH, continued investment in our region, and continued delivery of projects that raise the benchmark for quality and liveability.”&nbsp;

ERA’s location in the city’s west end, within walking distance of the harbour, the Newcastle Interchange, Honeysuckle dining precinct and the University of Newcastle’s city campus, positions it well for professionals, downsizers and investors seeking both connection and long-term value.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=351106]

The developer will also construct the project, supported by the Hunter Construction Group, adding an additional layer of certainty for purchasers.

Buyers will also be buoyed with the fact GWH has taken out the&nbsp;coveted 10-year Latent Defects Insurance policy on ERA, one of the only new developments under construction in the region with the new cover.

Offered by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/resilience-latent-defects-insurance">Resilience Insurance</a>, LDI is a first-right insurance product that protects purchasers from structural or waterproofing defects within the first 10 years after completion. GWH's adoption of the policy aligns with broader industry movement toward more rigorous assurances and supports buyer expectations around long-term asset performance.

With construction now officially underway and pre-construction pricing still available, the East Tower release offers a selection of remaining two- and three-bedroom apartments priced from $980,000 to $2.8 million.&nbsp;

Completion is anticipated for early 2028.

GWH commences construction at ERA, Newcastle's newest residential address

Construction at Megara's new North Fremantle apartment development,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/serai-north-fremantle-21-mccabe-street-north-fremantle-wa-6159">Serai</a>, has reached a new milestone.

Buyers now have a chance to walk through a completed apartment, ahead of construction completion in early 2026.

The update marks a significant step for the 98-residence development on McCabe Street, where remaining apartments and townhomes continue to be secured by buyers seeking a low maintenance, lock-and-leave lifestyle, especially those seeking an ocean or river view with only a few of those apartments left.

Demand has remained steady among buyers living within 10 to 15 kilometres of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/north-fremantle-wa-6159">North Fremantle</a>, largely long-term locals looking to transition from family homes without compromising on space, privacy or outlook.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110291 project_image_fid=186202]

A completed three-bedroom apartment now offers the clearest preview yet of Serai’s interiors, river views and layout efficiency, with buyers responding strongly to its level of finish and indoor–outdoor connection.&nbsp;

“Many have commented on the quality of the fittings and the spaciousness of the living areas,” Megara's Stephen Vitale noted.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/megara">Megara</a>’s decision to pursue the elevated <a>North Fremantle</a> site followed two years of targeted acquisition work. Perched between the river and the ocean, the position was selected for its panoramic views and proximity to dining, boutique retail and transport connections.&nbsp;

“This exceptional location was meticulously chosen for its unrivalled outlooks and its access to the lifestyle that defines the area,” Megara Director Jamie Clarke said.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110291 project_image_fid=186197]

The brief to architect Felipe Soto centred on expressing those views through a sculptural building form, a direction influenced by the Amalfi Coast and the local coastal landscape.&nbsp;

The project comprises 87 apartments and 11 townhouses, with one-bedroom residences already sold out and only limited two-bedroom layouts remaining. Three-bedroom apartments start from $1.995 million, townhouses from $2.75 million, and penthouses from $3.95 million.&nbsp;

Buyers are also moving to secure residences ahead of the government’s 37.5 per cent stamp-duty concession (capped at $50,000), which applies for eligible purchases within the timeframe.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110291 project_image_fid=186198]

Amenity remains a key differentiator at Serai and a consistent point of discussion among those comparing local options.

Health and lifestyle-focused spaces, including a gym and yoga studio, sauna and steam room, heated pool with cabanas, and a fire-pit lounge, are complemented by an outdoor cinema, games room, dining spaces and a maker’s studio. Secure bike and watercraft storage, washdown areas and EV charging cater to the active coastal lifestyle that defines North Fremantle living.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110291 project_image_fid=186200]

For many purchasers, the combination of design, amenity and early delivery has been decisive.

“People are purchasing at Serai for the river and ocean views, the prime location within close proximity to the beach, and because they don’t have to wait,” Vitale added, noting that move-in is now less than a year away.&nbsp;

As Megara continues construction toward completion, the opening of the finished apartment provides prospective buyers with a tangible view of life at Serai, clarity that is proving influential in a market where quality, certainty and lifestyle alignment are driving decisions.&nbsp;

Developer Third.i has topped out its luxury Potts Point apartment development, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/muse-potts-point-30-34-brougham-street-potts-point-nsw-2011">Muse</a>.

Under construction by Dilcara and expected to complete in mid-2026, Muse comprises just 13 apartments designed by acclaimed architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/wmk-architecture">WMK Architecture</a> and Mathieson. The building’s design celebrates Potts Point’s heritage character while introducing refined modern elements like advanced building technology and private balconies and terraces that offer views of the Sydney city skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112613 project_image_fid=231687]

Luke Berry, Director &amp; Co-Founder at Thirdi Group, said Muse is a celebration of Potts Point’s unique character and charm.

"With only 13 residences, we’ve created something truly special for those who appreciate exclusivity and design excellence," Berry says"

"The views, the location, and the lifestyle make Muse a rare opportunity in Sydney’s property market. We’re thrilled to see the project take shape and look forward to welcoming our residents in mid-2026.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112613 project_image_fid=231686]

Only a limited number of residences remain at Muse.

Third.i recently launched The Rushcutters nearby, also just 13 large-scale apartments. The two-bedroom apartments were all snapped up in double-quick time. The three-bedroom apartments are priced from just under $5 million.

Potts Point has always been popular for apartment living, but given the lack of suitable development sites in the affluent suburb, new apartment developments have been few and far between.

Early next year Ceerose will launch <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/belgravia-potts-point-117-victoria-street-potts-point-nsw-2011">Belgravia</a>, a mix of two- and three-bedroom apartments on Victoria Street.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/northland">Northland Group</a> has marked a significant construction milestone at Central Quarter, officially topping out the 22-storey structure in the heart of Merrylands.

For the Sydney-based developer–builder, the moment represents more than structural progress, it signals the emergence of a new mixed-use residential, retail, and commercial precinct at one of Western Sydney’s most connected transport gateways.

Executive Director at Business Western Sydney, Mr David Borger attended and spoke at the ceremony, commending the team's desire to positively contribute to the suburb’s next chapter. “This is the perfect example of good quality housing,” Borger said, praising the development’s promise and highlighting its community benefit.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5660 project_image_fid=1674]

CEO of Resilience Insurance, Corey Nugent, said that Central Quarter is one of only a handful of developments in&nbsp;<a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/sydney-nsw&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1764118068771000&amp;usg=AOvVaw1umQGjZtW7fyDkwFKpekYZ" href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/sydney-nsw" id="m_3439471637559591274OWA6ec3f35d-5631-3998-289e-eeff041be45c" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/sydney-nsw">Sydney</a>’s west, and the only one in&nbsp;<a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/merrylands-nsw-2160&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1764118068771000&amp;usg=AOvVaw04LK-WNjWmozinqnnaGled" href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/merrylands-nsw-2160" id="m_3439471637559591274OWA3ee924c8-5fa4-930f-ba76-784fa010f835" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/merrylands-nsw-2160">Merrylands</a>, to offer the sought-after 10-year Latent Defects Insurance policy, which covers significant structural and waterproofing defects.

A requirement of the policy is that a Technical Inspection Service (TIS) regularly attends the site during construction to ensure the building is being delivered to code. SDSS, which operates the TIS, says Central Quarter has consistently ranked within the top one per cent of more than 100 projects they monitor for build quality, a strong endorsement at this stage of delivery.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5660 project_image_fid=1605]

Developed and constructed entirely by Northland Group, Central Quarter is on track for completion in early-to-mid 2026 and will deliver 194 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments atop a mixed-use retail and commercial podium.&nbsp;

The developer launched the project only after construction was well underway, a move intended to give buyers greater clarity and confidence around timelines and delivery.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5660 project_image_fid=1616]

Inside, apartments feature engineered timber flooring, plush carpeting, zoned air conditioning, and Smeg appliances with Villeroy &amp; Boch tapware, alongside full-height bathroom tiling and stone benchtops.&nbsp;

Open-plan living areas connect to tiled balconies, maximising natural light and supporting indoor–outdoor living, key considerations for owner-occupiers and investors alike.

Central Quarter’s location remains one of its strongest drawcards. Positioned directly beside Merrylands Station and bus interchange, and across the road from Stockland Merrylands, residents will have frequent public transport, nearly 200 retailers, and diverse dining options at their doorstep.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5660 project_image_fid=343732]

The podium levels of Central Quarter will also introduce a 24/7 gym, childcare centre, and additional retail amenity at ground level, further activating the precinct.

As construction moves into its final stages, the topping out of Central Quarter marks a clear signal of progress for both the developer and Merrylands’ evolving urban landscape.&nbsp;With structural works now complete, internal fit-outs and façade detailing will take centre stage as the project moves toward its 2026 completion.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mosaic-property-group">Mosaic Property Group</a> has brought forward construction on Madeline by Mosaic, its $270 million, 37-level ultra-luxury tower in Broadbeach, after securing more than $175 million in pre-sales in just three months, the strongest off the plan result recorded on the Gold Coast this year.

Designed in collaboration with Fraser &amp; Partners and built by Mosaic’s in-house construction arm, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/madeline-by-mosaic-22-mary-avenue-broadbeach-qld-4218">Madeline</a> will comprise 59 whole- and half-floor residences, several spanning more than 400 sqm, on a site that secures one of Broadbeach’s last remaining protected ocean-view corridors. &nbsp;An extensive suite of health and wellness amenities, conceived to rival a five-star hotel, will further enhance the resident experience.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=3409]

Mosaic has rapidly expanded its Gold Coast presence, with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/madeline-by-mosaic-22-mary-avenue-broadbeach-qld-4218">Madeline</a> marking its 13th luxury project in just six years, an unprecedented run of delivery in one of the nation’s most competitive markets.

Marella by Mosaic in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/broadbeach-qld-4218">Broadbeach</a> was completed earlier this year, with Lily by Mosaic, also in Broadbeach, on track for completion in late 2025. Sophia by Mosaic in Palm Beach and Isabel by Mosaic in Burleigh Heads are both advancing their building programs, taking Mosaic’s active Gold Coast construction portfolio to more than $800 million in combined project value. All projects are either sold out or nearing sell-out.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=3405]

Beyond the Coast, Mosaic is advancing a South East Queensland pipeline worth more than $2 billion, while already having delivered projects valued at over $2 billion.

Founder and Managing Director Brook Monahan said the success of Madeline is a testament to Mosaic’s ability to consistently meet the market through discipline, evolution, a commitment to quality and a customer-first mindset.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150135 project_image_fid=3406]

“Our entire model is built on delivering extremely high quality, assurance and certainty," Monahan says.

"We listen, we adapt, and we learn, and that is why our homes resonate so deeply, why our customers return and refer, and why our projects continue to sell out well ahead of completion. Something we continue to work hard towards maintaining and will never take for granted.

“Madeline brings together rare fundamentals, a prime, protected ocean-view site, generously scaled exquisite residences, no more than two per floor, and genuine design integrity. with the confidence that Mosaic will deliver exactly what we promise.”

Monahan acknowledged that while demand is strong, the construction environment remains highly challenging.

“There is no denying that costs, labour, and capacity are still under real pressure. But our integrated model gives us visibility and control across every stage of delivery, and that is how we continue to navigate those headwinds without compromise to quality or certainty for our customers.”

He stated that in this environment, trust is a crucial factor for buyers.

“With so many projects delayed or withdrawn, buyer confidence has been shaken, and they are making a flight to certainty by rewarding developers with a track record of delivery. Madeline’s success is proof that when people trust the developer, they’re prepared to commit early and with conviction. We’ve never gone back to purchasers asking for more money, and that consistency, built on trust, integrity, and authenticity, is what sets Mosaic apart.”

Monahan, who was recently appointed Chairperson of Queensland’s Residential Tenancies Authority, said Mosaic’s growth has never been about chasing volume but about discipline and clarity of purpose.

“We don’t chase every site or every opportunity, we focus only on those that allow us to deliver enduring value. That discipline is why we’ve been able to grow without compromising quality. We don’t overpromise, we don’t cut corners, and we don’t walk away after completion. That consistency gives our buyers confidence, and it’s why they continue to back us.”

Madeline by Mosaic is expected to be completed in early 2028, with remaining residences priced from $3.5m.

Mosaic fast-tracks construction of Madeline by Mosaic after $175m sales blitz

A new chapter in Sydney’s urban renewal story begins today as NSW Premier Chris Minns officially turns the sod for Dawn, the fifth stage of Sekisui House Australia’s $5 billion <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/melrose-park-nsw-2114">Melrose Park</a> masterplanned community.

Developed in partnership with Hankyu Hanshin Properties and built by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/decode">Decode</a>, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/dawn-melrose-park-bundil-boulevard-melrose-park-nsw-2114">Dawn</a> will deliver 368 parkside residences, forming part of one of NSW’s largest privately owned urban renewal projects.&nbsp;

The milestone marks the start of the next phase in transforming Melrose Park into a new community delivering over 5,500 homes, a mixed-use town centre, 50,000 sqm of open green spaces and several future schools.

Kazunori Ito, Group CEO and Managing Director at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sekisui-house-australia">Sekisui House Australia</a>, said the milestone symbolises the company’s ongoing commitment to job creation, housing supply and sustainable community building.

“This moment represents more than just the start of construction," Ito said.

"It is about building a new urban heart for Sydney’s geographic centre. Dawn and the wider Melrose Park masterplan will generate thousands of jobs, deliver quality homes for families and help more people realise the dream of home ownership.

“We are proud to be supporting the NSW government’s housing targets and expanded Home Guarantee Scheme, which came into effect on 1 October. The program is already opening doors for more first home buyers at Melrose Park, many of whom are using the scheme to purchase with a five per cent deposit and no Lenders’ Mortgage Insurance.”

Since its introduction, the enhanced federal government’s Home Guarantee Scheme has given first home buyers greater access to the property market. With value thresholds in New South Wales now lifted to $1.5 million, buyers can secure a new apartment in Melrose Park sooner, reducing the burden of saving a 20 per cent deposit and removing costly mortgage insurance premiums.&nbsp;

The Dawn precinct, designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/group-gsa">Group GSA</a> embodies Sekisui House’s global “Love of Humanity” philosophy, integrating sustainability, technology and liveability into every design detail. Residents will enjoy abundant green space, energy efficient features and a direct connection to the future Parramatta Light Rail Stage 2 and Melrose Park Town Centre set to open in 2026.

As part of the NSW government’s long-term commitment to the local community, work recently commenced on the new Melrose Park High School, a state-of-the-art education facility designed to accommodate more than 1,000 students. The school will be within walking distance to Dawn and will become a cornerstone of the precinct’s family friendly environment.

Melrose Park’s smart community vision includes EV charging stations, environmental monitoring systems with Western Sydney University and NBN node to residence connectivity. With over $216 million in planning contributions committed to local and state infrastructure, this project supports NSW’s 30-minute city goal, ensuring residents can live, work and play within easy reach of key employment and lifestyle hubs.

Dawn’s contemporary residences all have secure basement parking and start at $649,000 for a one-bedroom apartment and $1.259 million for three-bedrooms.&nbsp;

The project will also overlook Central Park which spans nearly two hectares and features barbeque and picnic areas, children’s play zones and walking tracks ideal for active residents and pets.

Residents will enjoy exclusive rooftop community facilities including private rooftop gardens, beautifully landscaped podium parks and internal courtyard gardens.

Construction of Dawn, which is being led by regarded builder Decode, will be completed by Q1 2028, adding to Sekisui House’s pipeline of more than 9,000 homes and apartments under development across Australia.
