All building works for Stage 1 are complete, with the internal roads asphalted, line marking finished, and the bin store slab poured.&nbsp;All essential services, including permanent power, sewer, gas, and water, are now connected and operational.

The defects process is expected to continue until late-August.

Stage 2 is also moving forward steadily, with all townhouses sheeted, the first coat of paint applied, and joinery installed throughout. Tiling has been completed on six of the seven blocks, and the pool is scheduled to be pebblecreted by the end of August.

Stage 3 continues to gather momentum, with external cladding completed on three of the eight blocks. All townhouses have been fully roughed-in for electrical, plumbing, and air conditioning, and the first two blocks have now progressed to internal sheeting.

Stage 1 and 2 are 100 per cent sold and there are now just 10 four-bedroom townhomes left in Stage 3, priced from $1,125,000.

Residents at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/citrine-townhomes-rochedale-311-gardner-road-rochedale-qld-4123">Citrine Townhomes</a> can also look forward to high-quality shared amenities. The residents' facility will feature a pool, landscaped areas, and a BBQ space, contributing to a lifestyle-focused community environment.

Metro’s fully furnished display home has generated strong interest locally, reinforcing the market’s confidence in the project. Stage 1 and 2 are completely sold out and Stage 3 has officially launched and is selling fast. Just 10 townhouses remain for sale in the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136295 project_image_fid=273134]

The broader Citrine development comprises 90 three and four-bedroom townhomes designed across two to three levels, offering a contemporary contrast to Rochedale’s surrounding single-family homes.

Located just 17 km from Brisbane CBD, Citrine is within walking distance to schools, parks, and the popular Rochedale Village, home to Coles, medical services, and dining options.

Metro Property Group remains on track for project completion, with settlements forecast for Stage 1 in October/November 2025, Stage 2 in November/December 2025, and Stage 3 in January/February 2026.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/urban-property-group">Urban Property Group</a>&nbsp;has kicked off construction at its new Edmondson Park masterplan, Chapter Place, a mixed0use residential and retail precinct that will bring up to 1,900 new homes to Sydney's thriving south west.

The ground was broken for the first 43, three-level terraces in the development, which will be completed within 12 months.

It is the first of Chapter Place’s five sites to be developed across 51,634 sqm. Located just 800 metres from Edmondson Park Station, an estimated 4,700 residents will call the $1.5 billion development home by mid-2030. &nbsp;

Urban CEO Patrick Elias said the precinct marked a new chapter in high-quality residential development for the region.&nbsp;

“This is the first step in creating an innovative, sustainable and welcoming community, offering a mix of well-connected homes that bring smart, practical living to Sydney’s South West,” Elias said. &nbsp;

“Chapter Place will support community growth and connection, contributing to the urgently &nbsp;needed local housing supply with beautifully designed, high amenity housing and shared &nbsp;open spaces.&nbsp;

“Importantly, the development will also include 272 designated affordable homes for essential workers.”&nbsp;

<img alt="Chapter Place" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ef159ec6-4ee0-4e3e-a34b-3c71ce11eb0f" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/250627%20-%20UPG%20Chapter%20Place%20-%20Kitchen%20SB-MB%20Side%20Final-min.jpg?VersionId=fwbw1IzDKXmSXwQQ7IbNB9INx2WUmT6E" />

Liverpool Mayor Ned Mannoun welcomed the new development in the booming South West.&nbsp;

“Chapter Place is a wonderful new addition for Edmondson Park – an area that’s attracting &nbsp;residents drawn to its open green spaces, public transport, schools and thriving job market &nbsp;due to the construction of Western Sydney Airport and nearby Bradfield City," Mannoun said.

“This project will create another 5,200 new jobs over the next five years, which is another &nbsp;terrific boost for southwest Sydney residents.”&nbsp;

The site was acquired in 2021 from Landcom, the New South Wales Government's land and &nbsp;property development organisation.&nbsp;

<img alt="Chapter Place" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="5dc7da9a-b5a7-492a-a432-8bc0144393e2" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/250610%20-%20UPG%20Chapter%20Place%20-%20Rooftop%20Final-min.jpg?VersionId=InxydncyNnuezA6ccAnHeM.a.aZ0TU7B" />

Chapter Place showcases a range of innovative sustainability initiatives. In collaboration with Austral Bricks, Urban has created a custom brick produced just 22 kilometres from the site and incorporating 21 per cent recycled content. Carbon-neutral bricks will be used &nbsp;throughout the construction of Chapter Place apartments, reflecting a strong commitment to &nbsp;environmentally responsible design.&nbsp;

Other sustainability features include energy-efficient, fully electric appliances with maximum &nbsp;Energy Star ratings and solar battery storage to meet household operational energy needs. &nbsp;

Chapter Place follows Urban’s delivery of The Halston at North Strathfield, the first residential project to be completed under the NSW Government’s new affordable housing policy, which opened in June this year.&nbsp;

John Brogden, Chair of Urban’s Advisory Board, said the property marked another milestone in development for the Sydney market.&nbsp;

“This family-owned and run business is delivering a range of innovative and diverse housing &nbsp;choices that respond to changing needs and market demographics, especially in areas of &nbsp;high growth like Western Sydney.&nbsp;

“Chapter Place is another example of high-quality development that creates not just homes &nbsp;but thriving local communities.”&nbsp;

The first stage of 43 terrace homes, designed by Cox Architecture, is scheduled for completion in mid-2026. Construction on the second stage - comprising 63 terrace homes also designed by Cox - is set to commence in October, with completion expected by April 2027.&nbsp;

Chevron Island is set for a little slice of New York with the upcoming completion of Greenwich, the newest development by Ention Properties.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/greenwich-surfers-paradise-30-anembo-street-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">Greenwich</a>, a boutique 15-level development with just 46 apartments on Anembo Street, just off Chevron Island Park, has been designed by Ferro Chow to look like Manhattan's famous Flatiron Building.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6647 project_image_fid=171555]

Ention has refined the design and the make-up of the building over several years, reducing the number of apartments and increasing the internal floor areas of the apartments.

The remaining apartments for sale, which start from over 100 sqm and range in size up to the 209 sqm, penthouse-style offering, start from just over $1,129,000. There are a handful of two and three-bedrooms remaining, each with views over the Gold Coast skyline and waterways from the balconies and living areas.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6647 project_image_fid=183797]

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/ferro-chow-architects">Ferro Chow Architects</a> led the design, placing emphasis on curved forms, expansive arched floor-to-ceiling windows, and a natural palette that connects the interiors with the parkland and river landscape.&nbsp;

Each apartment features wide-plank oak flooring and a refined materials palette, including marbled stone kitchens and premium Miele and V-ZUG appliances.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6647 project_image_fid=183798]

Greenwich’s amenity is anchored by a rooftop pavilion dedicated exclusively to residents, comprising an infinity-edge pool, daybeds, poolside cabanas, a BBQ area, and a yoga and relaxation lawn.

The elevated vantage point offers sweeping city and water views, complementing the project's positioning at the quiet residential end of Chevron Island, but also just off the Thomas St village strip.

Jayde Pezet, Director at Pezet Matheson, says buyers have been drawn to the central location of the development, abutting public open space, with water and skyline views.&nbsp;

"Greenwich offers residents unparalleled walkability to HOTA, waterways, Surfers Paradise golf course, beaches and dining precincts.&nbsp;Also the stunning architectural design of the towers facade coupled with exquisite rooftop amenity has drawn attention from buyers and local residents alike."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112195 project_image_fid=2145]

Voyage's architecture, by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cheah-saw-architecture">Cheah Saw Architecture</a>, is defined by an asymmetrical façade and a refined palette that echoes the surrounding coastal tones.&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.

The Kensington, one of the latest apartment projects by longstanding Sydney developer TOGA, has hit a major milestone.

The Anzac Parade building has officially topped out under the watchful eye of Gold Star iCIRT-rated builder DASCO, who can start to turn their attention toward the exterior of the building, and the fitout of the&nbsp;142 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments strategically located opposite the Kensington Light Rail stop.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110959 project_image_fid=307645]

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-kensington-147-151-anzac-parade-kensington-nsw-2033">The Kensington</a>'s design, in collaboration with award-winning design firm <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/turner-studio">Turner Studio</a>, aims to reflect the charm of Kensington through its use of face brickwork, while offering contemporary, high-quality living spaces.&nbsp;

A standout feature is the communal rooftop garden, which provides sweeping views over the surrounding parklands and Randwick Racecourse.

The project also features retail spaces on the ground floor, aimed at offering convenience and services for residents and the local community. With private entrances for the SOHO terraces, these spaces are well-suited for small businesses or entrepreneurs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110959 project_image_fid=307661]

Apartments in The Kensington cater to a broad range of buyers, with one, two, and three-bedroom layouts available. The mix also includes a limited number of SOHO properties, offering flexible spaces that suit both living and business needs.&nbsp;

Prices are positioned in the luxury segment, with premium finishes, spacious floor plans, and an emphasis on seamless indoor-outdoor living.&nbsp;

Each apartment has been designed to adapt to modern lifestyle trends, including work-from-home arrangements, by integrating study areas in most layouts.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110959 project_image_fid=307651]

Kensington has become one of the more sought-after locations in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs. Situated just 200 metres from the Kensington Light Rail stop and within a 10-minute drive to both the CBD and Coogee Beach, The Kensington offers a highly accessible location with a distinctly coastal-city lifestyle.&nbsp;

The area continues to see significant investment and development, driven by its proximity to major institutions such as the University of New South Wales (UNSW) and Prince of Wales Hospital.&nbsp;

The increasing demand for property in the area is reflected in a tightening rental market, with low vacancy rates contributing to positive fundamentals for development projects like this.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110959 project_image_fid=307652]

TOGA, a well-established Australian developer, is known for its solid track record in delivering residential projects. With over 60 years of experience, the company is backed by a reputation for quality construction and innovation.&nbsp;

The Kensington marks a significant step in TOGA’s broader vision for revitalising the Anzac Parade corridor, contributing to the creation of a vibrant new residential and business precinct in the area.&nbsp;

Residents will move in midway through 2026.

Perth developer DevWest is approaching completion of its latest new apartment development, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/olive-st-263-hay-street-subiaco-wa-6008">Olive St</a> in Subiaco.

Due for completion next month,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/olive-st-263-hay-street-subiaco-wa-6008">Olive St</a>&nbsp;offers a rare opportunity to buy a brand new apartment in a suburb that gives its residents "a little bit of everything."

Nicole Jones from Jones Realty says&nbsp;Olive St strikes a unique balance between boutique living and urban convenience.

"Buyers are drawn to the fact that they can experience the best of both worlds – the calm of a quieter street, yet with direct access to the vibrant heart of <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/subiaco-wa-6008">Subiaco</a>," Jones says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106968 project_image_fid=3037]

Olive St consists of just 71 apartments across six levels, and is one of the few new apartment developments in the area. Olive St is designed as a low-rise, boutique offering that appeals to those seeking a more personal, community-oriented living experience.&nbsp;

The apartments range from two-bedroom to three-bedroom configurations, with all one-bedroom apartments already sold out. Prices start from $839,000, making Olive St a considerably more affordable alternative to Subiaco's soaring house market, which has jumped by over seven per cent in the last 12 months to just shy of $1.8 million.

Olive St's design puts practical living at the forefront. Each apartment features an open-plan living space that flows out to a spacious terrace or balcony.&nbsp;North-facing units, in particular, have been well-received for their natural light and views that extend across Subiaco.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106968 project_image_fid=3032]

The building's amenities take the same thoughtful approach. A co-working hub, gym, BBQ area, and residents’ lounge are all part of the package, ensuring there are spaces for relaxation, socialising, and working from home.&nbsp;

The co-working hub caters to the growing number of professionals seeking a flexible work environment without leaving the comfort of their apartment.

“It’s a real shift towards what people need today,” Jones adds.

“We’re seeing a lot of interest from buyers looking for a home that offers flexibility, especially with more people working remotely.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106968 project_image_fid=3028]

The demand for Olive St has been strong, with buyers from various demographics expressing interest. Jones explains that the development is drawing a mix of local professionals and downsizers seeking a low-maintenance, lock-and-leave lifestyle, to families and couples looking for more space.&nbsp;

Investors have also been active, with many securing the one-bedroom apartments early in the sales process. The inclusion of commercial spaces and the planned co-working hubs within the development ensures that Olive St will remain a highly attractive place for a diverse range of residents, further solidifying its potential for strong rental yields.

There is still an opportunity to take advantage of stamp duty savings of up to $50,000 before construction is completed, with a limited number of apartments remaining.

Sunshine Coast developer&nbsp;Habitat Development Group is set to break ground on its latest Sunshine Coast project, The Millwell.

Habitat will officially turn the first sod at the start of July at the Millwell Road East site, adjacent to the Sunshine Plaza and fronting the Cornmeal Creek.

<a href="/new-apartments/the-millwell-2-millwell-road-east-maroochydore">The Millwell</a> continues Habitat’s strong momentum in Maroochydore, where the Brisbane-based developer has already delivered Market Lane Residences and The Corso Collection.

The $243 million project will deliver 205 apartments across two eight-level towers, designed by long-time Habitat collaborator <a href="/architects/k-architecture">K Architecture</a>.&nbsp;

A mix of two, three, and four-bedroom residences, including four premium penthouses, will be complemented by 361 sqm of ground-floor commercial and retail space.

Sunshine Coast Mayor Rosanna Natoli will join Habitat Managing Director Cleighton Clark to officiate the ceremony, marking a symbolic moment for both the developer and the region.&nbsp;

Clark said The Millwell has been designed to meet this sustained demand with larger format apartments and elevated amenities.

The Millwell will offer a suite of high-end amenities for residents, headlined by the Sunshine Coast’s first 25-metre rooftop infinity-edge pool.&nbsp;

The rooftop terrace, complete with subtropical landscaping and sweeping 360-degree views, will also feature an independently operated spa and wellness centre, private dining rooms, a rooftop bar, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen and communal areas designed to foster a vibrant community.

Views will span across the Maroochydore River and Mount Coolum to the north, Mount Buderim and Point Cartwright to the south, and the beaches and hinterland of the wider Sunshine Coast region.

The project comes at a time when the Sunshine Coast rental market continues to tighten, with historically low vacancy rates driving interest from both investors and owner-occupiers.&nbsp;

In a move that signals the next chapter for Green Square’s transformation, <a href="/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a> will break ground next week on The Avenues, a $874 million mixed-use precinct that will see a former industrial site in Zetland turned into a new residential neighbourhood over the coming years.

The 2.87-hectare site on Joynton Avenue, previously home to an Ausgrid depot, sits just four kilometres from the Sydney CBD and forms part of the broader Green Square renewal zone.&nbsp;

Construction will begin with a ceremonial sod-turn led by Deicorp founder Fouad Deiri.

Once complete, <a href="/new-apartments/the-avenues-zetland-130-joynton-avenue-nsw-2017">The Avenues</a> will deliver 624 apartments across nine buildings, along with curated ground-floor retail, purpose-built student housing and build-to-rent dwellings delivered in partnership with Scape. It's one of the largest developments to be launched in Sydney’s inner south in recent years, and one that takes a layered approach to scale, tenure and architecture.

Designed by <a href="/architects/fk-australia">Fender Katsalidis</a>, <a href="/architects/candalepas-associates">Candalepas Associates</a> and Lachlan Seegers Architects, the buildings vary in height and form, from eight to 14 levels. Each has been designed to respond to context: earth-toned brick facades, generous landscaped streets, and active retail edges aim to bring a pedestrian rhythm to what’s long been a closed-off site.

Public space is a key part of the plan. A $16 million package of park and infrastructure upgrades is tied to the project, including improvements to neighbouring Woolwash and Biyanbing Parks.

In contrast to the typical strata-only model, Deicorp’s plan integrates a mix of market apartments, long-term rentals and student housing, an increasingly common formula in inner-city regeneration precincts like Green Square and Waterloo. The precinct will also include over 800 sqm of commercial and retail space, with tenancy types ranging from cafes and bistros to small-format grocery and convenience stores.

The developer says the design prioritises sustainable performance and thermal comfort, with high-performance façades, natural ventilation, and external shading systems planned to meet SEPP 2022 and BASIX targets.

<a href="/developments/zetland-nsw-2017">Zetland</a> has rapidly shifted from an industrial edge suburb to one of Sydney’s densest residential postcodes, driven largely by its rail connection and proximity to the city. Yet many parts of the suburb remain transitional. The Avenues aims to stitch one of its largest remaining brownfield parcels back into the urban grid, just a short walk from Green Square Station and the Gunyama Park precinct.

The project continues Deicorp’s active pipeline across metropolitan Sydney, with other projects underway or in planning in Parramatta, Melrose Park, Crows Nest and the Hills District.
