<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen">Abadeen</a> and <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/perifa">PERIFA</a> have celebrated the topping out of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf,</a> marking a significant milestone in the delivery of one of Syd​ney's most anticipated waterfront communities.

Located on Sydney's harbourfront at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/putney-nsw-2112">Putney</a>, the project has now reached its highest structural point, with construction progressing strongly towards completion in 2027. 
&nbsp; 
The milestone was celebrated on-site with project partners Phoenix Property Investors, Mitsubishi Estate Asia, Versatile Construction, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/sjb-architects">SJB</a>, consultants and stakeholders, to recognise the collective effort behind the transformation of the historic waterfront site into a vibrant new residential, marina and lifestyle destination.

&nbsp; 
<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> will deliver a mix of waterfront residences and terraces, complemented by a private 36-berth marina, waterfront dining opportunities and a revitalised foreshore designed to reconnect the community with the river's edge. 
&nbsp; 
Abadeen Executive Chairman and Founder Justin Brown said the project represented a rare opportunity to create the next chapter in Sydn​ey's long history of successful waterfront precincts. 
&nbsp; 
"Throughout Sydney, some of the city's most sought-after addresses have emerged from carefully considered waterfront precincts such as Woolloom​ooloo Wharf, Walsh Bay and Breakfast Point," Brown said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=362566] 
&nbsp; 
"What makes these places so successful is that they become much more than residential developments," Brown said.

"They bring together homes, hospitality, marina facilities, public spaces and a strong sense of community in locations where future supply is incredibly limited."

Brown has long described absolute waterfront land in Sy​dney as "finite."

"Once these opportunities are developed, they are rarely replicated. That's why Syd​ney's waterfront precincts have consistently demonstrated strong demand and long-term value growth over many decades. 
&nbsp; 
"<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> is one of the few remaining opportunities to secure a residence within a masterplanned waterfront community that combines direct water access, marina ownership opportunities and a genuine village lifestyle just moments from the Sy​dney CBD."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=362564] 
&nbsp; 
PERIFA Founder and Managing Director Fabrizio Perilli said the project reflected a shared commitment to delivering exceptional places that create long-term value for residents and the broader community. 
&nbsp; 
"The topping out milestone is a significant achievement for the Versatile Group and a testament to the collaboration between all project partners, consultants and contractors involved," Perilli said. 
&nbsp; 
"Beyond the residences themselves, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> will establish a new waterfront destination that celebrates the history, character and lifestyle of this unique location while creating a lasting legacy for future generations."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=291195] 
&nbsp; 
Construction is being delivered by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/versatile">Versatile Construction</a>, with structural works now substantially complete across the precinct. Attention will progressively shift to the construction of the waterview terraces, apartment façades, services and interior fit-out works over the coming months. 
&nbsp; 
With limited residences and marina berths remaining, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> continues to attract strong interest from owner occupiers and downsizers seeking a premium waterfront lifestyle within close proximity to Putne​y Village, Rh​odes, Top Ry​de and the Syd​ney CBD. 
&nbsp; 
As one of the last opportunities to secure a residence within a new masterplanned waterfront community on Sy​dney Harbour, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> is expected to remain a highly sought-after address for years to come.

Kew has long been regarded as one of Melbourne's premier residential suburbs. It's a location defined by its grand period homes, leafy streets and some of the city's most prestigious schools, yet it has often sat just outside the spotlight cast on neighbouring Hawthorn and Camberwell.

Increasingly, however, buyers are recognising that Kew offers much of what draws people to those suburbs, with a quieter residential setting, exceptional amenity and long-term owner-occupier appeal.

Within a few minutes' walk, residents can access Kew Junction, one of Melbourne's most established village centres. Cafés, bakeries, restaurants, supermarkets, boutique retailers and everyday services are all on the doorstep, with local favourites including Centonove, Adeney Milk Bar Cafe, and Frank &amp; Harri creating the type of walkable lifestyle that has become increasingly difficult to find in Melbourne's inner east. Beyond the immediate neighbourhood, Glenferrie Road's renowned shopping and dining precinct in Hawthorn and the retail, dining and entertainment offerings of Camberwell Junction are both just a short drive or tram ride away.

The suburb is equally well connected. Tram routes 48 and 109 provide direct access to the CBD, while High Street and Cotham Road connect residents to the wider inner east.&nbsp;Nearby access to the Eastern Freeway also places the Yarra Valley, Mornington Peninsula and Melbourne Airport within easy reach, adding another layer of convenience for weekend travel.&nbsp;It's a rare combination of connectivity and tranquillity, where quiet residential streets sit just moments from some of Melbourne's most established shopping and lifestyle precincts.

For families, Kew remains one of Melbourne's most tightly held addresses. Carey Baptist Grammar School, Xavier College, Methodist Ladies' College, Trinity Grammar, Ruyton Girls' School and Genazzano FCJ College are all nearby, while the Yarra River parklands, walking trails and sporting clubs provide another layer of lifestyle appeal.

It's within this established pocket that developer Ricdanic is delivering <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/wimba-ave-kew-9-11-wimba-avenue-kew-vic-3101">Wimba Ave</a>, a boutique collection of just 13 residences across two buildings named after its location on the tree-lined Wimba Avenue,&nbsp;within one of Kew's most prestigious pockets where homes have been known to sell up to and above $8 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140755 project_image_fid=354809]

The residences prioritise the space that buyers are increasingly searching for but struggling to find in established suburbs. Living areas extend beyond five metres in width, ceiling heights range from three to five metres, and apartments open onto private gardens averaging around 125 sqm. Selected residences also feature balconies of approximately 60 sqm, while premium inclusions include Miele appliances, double-glazed windows, EV readiness, fully electric systems and a 7.2 NatHERS energy rating.

Architect Chris Idle says opportunities to deliver homes of this scale within established suburbs have become increasingly uncommon.

"There are very few opportunities to do these kinds of developments in leafy, established suburbs," he says. "To get this level of amenity, natural light, and architectural freedom in such a setting is extremely rare."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140755 project_image_fid=366267]

The architecture draws on Kew's established character through the use of handmade Krause bricks, while landscaping by John Patrick introduces 23 plant species, including nine native varieties, creating an environment which focuses just as much on nature as it does the building.

Construction on Wimba Ave is well underway by renowned high-end builder Sinjen, with completion expected in late 2027. Prices start from $2.22 million.

The enduring appeal of Kew's tree-lined streets and village lifestyle

"For me, it's the location." That was the first thing Chris pointed to when reflecting on why he and his wife Marita decided to purchase at Candela Ivanhoe, the under-construction new apartment development by Salter Brothers in the heart of the north-eastern M​elb​ourne​ suburb. ​

"We've lived here before… everything is here," Chris said.

"Our doctor is around the corner, there's dentists, pilates, everything we need, restaurants, fast food places, two train stations, Ivanhoe and Darebin, both in walking distance. You don't need anything else."

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/X8K0Bozug7A?si=Puwc6vx_ZO0qQZF8" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

Just 10 kilometres from Melbo​urn​e's CBD, Ivanhoe combines direct city connectivity with the amenity of an established village community. Residents have access to highly regarded schools, expansive parklands, public transport, and a thriving retail and hospitality precinct centred around Upper Heidelberg Road, all within a neighbourhood that has retained its leafy character despite its proximity to the city.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/candela-ivanhoe-40-upper-heidelberg-road-ivanhoe-vic-3079">Candela Ivanhoe</a> sits within the heart of this established landscape, positioned just moments from Ivanhoe Village and within walking distance of many of the suburb's most sought-after amenities.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=364553]

From Candela, residents can access cafés, grocers, wine bars, restaurants and essential services on foot, while Ivanhoe Station and Darebin Station provide direct connectivity across Mel​bour​ne. The development is also surrounded by some of the suburb's best-known lifestyle destinations, including Pinkie, Laurent, Enni, Docasa and Woodfire Pizza e Cucina, alongside Ivanhoe Plaza, Woolworths, pharmacies and specialty retailers.

Green space is another defining feature of the suburb. Darebin Parklands, Ivanhoe Park, Nellie Ibbot Park and the Yarra River trail network provide extensive opportunities for recreation, while Ivanhoe Golf Course and Ivanhoe Tennis Club continue to underpin the area's long-established lifestyle appeal.

The suburb's education offering further strengthens demand. Ivanhoe Grammar School, Ivanhoe Girls' Grammar School, Mary Immaculate Primary School and Ivanhoe Primary School have helped establish the area as one of Melbou​​rne's most sought-after schooling precincts, attracting families and downsizers alike who want to remain connected to the area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=357510]

While location was the priority for Marita and Chris, the project itself also needed to meet their expectations.

"Whilst location was paramount, I was also looking at design of the environment and Candela ticked every box," Marita said.

"We're just thrilled with our choice."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=336455]

Developed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/salter-brothers">Salter Brothers</a>, Candela Ivanhoe has been designed to complement its village setting, with an emphasis on generous floorplans, natural light and practical everyday living.

Residents will have access to a range of shared amenities, including a communal rooftop garden and dedicated residential lounge, complemented by a ground-floor café and lifestyle wellbeing centre, helping foster the sense of community already emerging among future owners.

That approach has resonated strongly with the market. More than 90 per cent of purchasers at Candela Ivanhoe are owner-occupiers, with buyers ranging from downsizers and second-home buyers to young families and first home buyers, creating a genuinely multi-generational community of grandparents, parents and children. It reflects a broader shift across Melbo​​urne's apartment market, where buyers are increasingly prioritising neighbourhood quality, lifestyle amenity and long-term liveability.

Currently under construction by Ironside, Candela Ivanhoe comprises 58 apartments. Candela Ivanhoe is scheduled for completion in the coming months, and residents can move in from September. One to four bedroom residences, prices from $649,000 and limited opportunities remaining.

Location and lifestyle drive demand at Candela Ivanhoe

As apartment buyers increasingly look beyond the four walls of their residence, the quality and depth of shared amenity has become a defining factor in how developments are designed and experienced, particularly in the high-rise, new apartment development space.

In Southbank, where high-density living continues to evolve, developers are placing greater emphasis on creating environments that support wellbeing, connection, and convenience as part of everyday life.

That approach sits at the heart of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/aura-at-melbourne-square-7-hoff-boulevard-southbank-vic-3006">AURA</a>, the latest residential tower in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/osk-property">OSK Property</a>’s $3.5 billion Melbourne Square precinct. Rising 67 storeys above Hoff Boulevard, the 673-apartment development has been conceived around what OSK describes as a “vertical wellness ecosystem”, a layered collection of amenities that extends throughout the building rather than being confined to a single podium level.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=370263]

The amenity offering begins on the seventh level within the AURA Club, a dedicated resident hub focused on health, relaxation, and daily convenience. Here, residents will have access to an indoor swimming pool, cold plunge, spa, sauna, and steam room, alongside a fully equipped gym, reformer Pilates studio, and yoga room.

The wellness facilities are complemented by a range of spaces that acknowledge the changing ways people live and work. Work-from-home lounges and co-working areas sit alongside a library, music room, games room, cinema facilities, and open-air terrace spaces, providing residents with flexible environments that can adapt throughout the day.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367468]

Beyond the internal amenity, AURA introduces a series of Japanese-inspired gardens that form a quieter counterpoint to the tower’s social spaces.

Landscaped retreats feature curated outdoor dining, tranquil courtyard seating, fire pit, and a tea house pavilion. Rather than functioning as simple recreational areas, the gardens have been designed as places for reflection and informal gathering, drawing on principles of balance, nature, and calm that underpin the project's broader design philosophy.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367810]

The social amenity continues to evolve as residents move higher through the building. Levels 49 and 50 house the Meridian Club, where a lounge bar, conservatory spaces, and private dining rooms take advantage of elevated city views. At the summit of the tower, the exclusive Cumulus Club spans Levels 66 and 67, offering additional lounges, private dining, and meditation and treatment rooms positioned above Melbourne’s skyline.

For OSK Property, the extensive amenity offering reflects a broader focus on wellbeing as a core component of apartment living rather than an added feature.

“Aura stands tall as an exemplar of holistic wellness – its focus on social, physical and mental health culminate in a building that is calming, restorative and relaxing, where residents will have their own sanctuary within the well-connected and sought-after Southbank,” says OSK Property CEO Chong Boon Woon.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367796]

AURA’s amenity strategy extends beyond the tower itself through its integration with the wider Melbourne Square precinct.

Residents will have direct access to Kennedy Park, Southbank’s 3,745 sqm landscaped public park, alongside a full-line Woolworths supermarket, childcare centre, hospitality venues, and approximately 1,600 sqm of additional retail planned within AURA’s lower levels. Together, these elements create a highly connected residential environment where daily needs, recreation, and wellness are woven into the fabric of the community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=370253]

As Melbourne’s apartment market continues to mature, developments are increasingly judged by the lifestyle they provide beyond individual residences.

Through its combination of wellness facilities, landscaped retreats, social clubs, and precinct-wide amenity, AURA represents a shift toward a more comprehensive model of vertical living, one where shared spaces play as significant a role as the homes themselves.

AURA elevates amenity living at Melbourne Square

Builder-developer Scion is the latest to target Sydney's booming Hills Showground Metro precinct, filing plans for more than 100 apartments within walking distance of the station.

Scion has lodged a concurrent rezoning and State Significant Development Application for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/27-33-middleton-avenue-castle-hill-nsw-2154">27–33 Middleton Avenue</a>, where it plans to replace four existing homes with an 11 and 14-storey mixed-use development comprising 109 apartments, six affordable housing dwellings, and a ground-floor café.

Designed by BHK Architects, the proposal includes three levels of basement parking with 174 spaces, more than 1,200 sqm of communal open space, and extensive landscaping across the 3,791 sqm site.

The development has been designed as two buildings connected by a recessed wintergarden spine, with the 14-storey building positioned to the south and the 11-storey building to the north.

<img alt="Scion" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="64dc359d-736b-43b8-87a8-70a8285cab47" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-06-25%20at%208.47.01%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=PXh.m8id_aevBPHEckPf88wQ2RQThPos" />

The apartment mix has been weighted towards owner-occupiers, with 13 one-bedroom apartments, 55 two-bedroom residences, 31 three-bedroom apartments, six three-bedroom lofts, and four four-bedroom homes. Six apartments will be dedicated as affordable housing in line with the NSW Housing SEPP.

According to the Architectural Design Report by BKH, the proposal seeks to create "a place-responsive architecture" inspired by the natural landscape surrounding Cattai Creek, while strengthening the public domain through landscaping, active frontages and a neighbourhood café.

Atlas Urban, in its Urban Design Report, says the proposal takes a different approach to increasing density around Hills Showground Station by favouring a more slender, vertically articulated built form over a conventional mid-rise outcome. The report argues this allows for greater deep soil planting, improved solar access and a better public domain outcome, while still delivering additional housing close to rapid public transport.

The site sits around 500 metres from Hills Showground Metro Station, within a precinct earmarked for significant residential intensification following the opening of the Sydney Metro Northwest line. Planning documents accompanying the application note that Greater Sydney's population has grown by more than one million people since planning for the precinct first began, reinforcing the need to accelerate housing delivery around existing transport infrastructure.

Scion is expanding its development pipeline which also includes <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/chatham-west-ryde-2-6-chatham-road-west-ryde-nsw-2114">Chatham in West Ryde</a>, 62 apartments which are approaching completion. They also have a State Significant Development Application with the NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/96-anzac-avenue-west-ryde-nsw-2114">145 apartments on Anzac Avenue</a>, also in West Ryde.

Sydney’s property market is known for high prices, competitive bidding, and mounting pressure on first home buyers. But change is on the horizon.

From late 2025, eligible first home buyers in New South Wales will have access to a new federal government initiative aimed at addressing affordability: the Help to Buy Scheme.&nbsp;

<h2>What is the Help to Buy Scheme?</h2>

The program introduces a shared equity model intended to reduce the upfront cost of entering the property market, particularly in high-demand urban areas such as Sydney.

The scheme operates under a shared ownership structure in which the federal government takes an equity stake of up to 40 per cent for new homes, or 30 per cent for existing dwellings. This arrangement allows eligible buyers to significantly reduce their loan size and avoid the added cost of Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI).

Under this model, purchasers can enter the property market with as little as a two per cent deposit, well below the traditional 10 to 20 per cent usually required. The government’s contribution is not a loan but a co-ownership stake in the property. As such, there is no interest or rent charged on its portion.

Because the government’s equity combined with the buyer’s deposit typically meets or exceeds the 20 per cent threshold, LMI does not apply. The remaining balance, generally between 60 and 70 per cent of the property’s value, is financed through a standard home loan with a participating lender.

The government's equity in the property remains in place until the buyer chooses to repay it voluntarily or until the property is sold. Buyers can buy back the government’s share over time, in increments of at least five per cent, depending on their financial situation.

There is no fixed repayment timeline, but the amount to be repaid will be based on the property's market value at the time of repayment, not the original purchase price.

<h2>How do you qualify for the&nbsp;Help to Buy Scheme?</h2>

To qualify for the Help to Buy Scheme, applicants must meet the following conditions:

<ul>
	<li>Be an Australian citizen at least 18 years of age.</li>
	<li>Be a first-home buyer who does not currently own property.</li>
	<li>Intend to live in the property as their primary residence.</li>
	<li>Earn less than $100,000 per year for individuals, or $160,000 for couples.</li>
	<li>Purchase a property within the regional price caps, currently $950,000 in Sydney, though this is expected to rise to approximately $1.3 million ahead of the program’s launch.</li>
</ul>

While the Help to Buy Scheme does not solve affordability challenges across the board, it does offer a more accessible pathway for a defined segment of the market, particularly younger buyers with moderate incomes who have been priced out of traditional lending routes.

The scheme is expected to commence in NSW in late 2025, as part of a national rollout.

Under the new model, purchasers can enter the property market with as little as a two per cent deposit, well below the traditional 10 to 20 per cent usually required

Help to Buy Scheme: What first home buyers in NSW need to know

The First Home Owners Grant (FHOG) is a government initiative designed to help eligible first-time home buyers by offering financial assistance towards the purchase or construction of a new home.

While the FHOG is a nationwide program, it is administered separately by each state and territory, meaning the eligibility criteria, grant amounts, and property requirements can vary depending on your location. This means that the amount available and the conditions attached to the grant will differ, so it is important to check the specific guidelines for your state or territory.

It’s important to note that the FHOG is just one of several incentives available to first home buyers. In most states and territories, the grant is not linked to stamp duty exemptions or concessions, with the exception of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). The FHOG is typically a one-off payment, reducing the overall cost of purchasing or building a new home before any stamp duty concessions are applied.

Below, we provide a breakdown of the First Home Owner Grants available across Australia, outlining the specific details for each state and territory.

Every First Home Owner Grant for new property by state

In the ever-evolving landscape of sustainable architecture and environmentally conscious design, systems and ratings in place can help determine the energy efficiency of residential buildings in Australia.

Australia has multiple building rating systems that evaluate energy efficiency and sustainability in existing and new building designs.

Some systems assess individual building components, while others provide an overall rating for the entire structure.

A rating system ensures that homes are comfortable and energy-efficient, whether you are buying, renovating, or building.

NatHERS (Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme) is a common way for new homes to meet energy efficiency requirements.

As new developments continue to shape the urban environment, understanding NatHERS ratings becomes essential for developers and homeowners. This article delves into the concept of NatHERS ratings, their significance, and how they contribute to creating energy-efficient homes.

<h2>What is NatHERS?</h2>

NatHERS is a national initiative implemented by the Australian government to promote energy efficiency in residential buildings. The scheme aims to provide a standardised method for assessing the thermal performance of homes, considering factors such as insulation, orientation, ventilation, and building materials.&nbsp;

NatHERS ratings are the most common way new homes meet the National Construction Code's (NCC's) minimum energy efficiency requirements.&nbsp;

NatHERS assessments provide thermal and whole-home ratings for new homes, townhouses, and apartments.

The rating helps evaluate the energy performance of buildings, guides homeowners and developers to make informed decisions about the energy efficiency of their properties, and encourages the construction of more sustainable, comfortable, and cost-effective homes.

<h2>How NatHERS Ratings Work</h2>

NatHERS ratings are determined through four accredited software tools (AccuRate, BERS Pro, FirstRate5, HERO) using a calculation engine CSIRO developed to predict building temperature based on various factors.

The tools can model complex effects of building mass, insulation, window size, and other elements.

The outcome is a star rating that reflects the building's overall thermal efficiency, indicating how well it can maintain a comfortable indoor temperature without excessive reliance on heating or cooling systems.

The star rating scale ranges from 0 to 10, with a 6-star rating being the minimum requirement for compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC).&nbsp;

Achieving a higher star rating demonstrates a commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability, as the building is better equipped to minimise its environmental impact and reduce long-term energy costs.

Anyone can use NatHERS tools, but accredited assessors can provide certified ratings and professional advice.

<h2>Benefits of Higher NatHERS Ratings</h2>

Energy Efficiency: Buildings with higher NatHERS ratings are more energy-efficient, requiring less heating and cooling energy. This reduces the structure's carbon footprint and lowers occupants' energy bills.

Cost Savings: Homes with higher NatHERS ratings are generally more energy-efficient, resulting in reduced energy consumption for heating and cooling. This translates to lower energy bills for homeowners, making sustainable living environmentally friendly and economically viable in the long run.

Environmental Impact: Lower energy consumption directly translates to a reduced environmental impact. Buildings with higher NatHERS ratings contribute to the overall goal of mitigating climate change by lowering greenhouse gas emissions associated with heating and cooling systems.

Improved Comfort: Buildings with high NatHERS ratings offer better thermal comfort to occupants. Proper insulation, well-designed ventilation, and optimal orientation maintain a consistent and comfortable indoor temperature, providing occupants with a more enjoyable and healthier space.

Market Value and Desirability: Higher NatHERS ratings can enhance the market value of a property. As energy efficiency becomes a more significant consideration for homebuyers, a well-rated building may attract a premium price and stand out in the real estate market.

Compliance with Building Codes: NatHERS ratings are a vital component of the National Construction Code (NCC), and compliance with these ratings is often a mandatory requirement for new developments. Local councils and planning authorities may set minimum energy efficiency standards that must be met to obtain development approval.

The Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) is a crucial initiative shaping the future of energy-efficient, resilient, and cost-effective homes. With its recent upgrades, NatHERS has evolved into a world-leading tool for the building sector, supporting the global commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

What is a NatHERS rating in new off the plan apartment developments?

Mixed-use developments have gained significant popularity across Australia in recent years due to their unique blend of residential, commercial, and recreational spaces.

Unlike traditional single-purpose developments, mixed-use projects offer a harmonious integration of various functions within a single locale.

Residential units seamlessly coexist with commercial establishments, retail outlets, dining venues, entertainment hubs, and recreational facilities, with the combination not only enhances convenience but also fosters a vibrant lifestyle and a sense of community.

<h3>Convenience and accessibility</h3>

Mixed-use developments are designed with convenience in mind. They often integrate residential units with commercial spaces, retail outlets, restaurants, and recreational facilities, creating a self-contained community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204874]

The proximity allows residents to enjoy the convenience of having essential amenities and services within walking distance. Whether it's grabbing a cup of coffee, going grocery shopping, or accessing healthcare services, everything is conveniently located, saving residents time and effort.

<h3>Vibrant lifestyle and community</h3>

One of the major advantages of mixed-use developments is the vibrant lifestyle they offer. With a diverse range of amenities and communal spaces, residents have ample opportunities to interact, socialise, and build a sense of community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107714 project_image_fid=214122]

The presence of parks, community centres, and shared spaces fosters a lively atmosphere, encouraging residents to engage in various activities and events. The vibrant lifestyle within these developments creates a unique sense of belonging and camaraderie among the residents.

<h3>Potential for higher rental yields and property value appreciation</h3>

Mixed-use developments tend to attract a broad range of tenants and buyers due to their versatile nature. This high demand can result in higher rental yields for investors and potentially lead to property value appreciation over time.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=139989 project_image_fid=212887]

The integration of commercial and retail spaces attracts businesses, which can provide a stable rental income stream. Additionally, the popularity of mixed-use developments often drives up property values, making them a potentially lucrative investment in the long term.

<h3>Enhanced security and maintenance</h3>

Mixed-use developments typically have comprehensive security measures in place. With controlled access points, CCTV surveillance, and professional security staff, residents can enjoy enhanced safety and peace of mind.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108019 project_image_fid=212658]

Additionally, these developments often have dedicated maintenance teams responsible for the upkeep of common areas, landscaping, and infrastructure. This ensures that the overall appearance and functionality of the development are well-maintained, creating a pleasant living environment for residents.

<h3>Live-work-play balance</h3>

One of the key attractions of mixed-use developments is the ability to achieve a desirable live-work-play balance. The integration of residential and commercial spaces allows residents to live closer to their workplaces, reducing commuting time and improving work-life balance.

The proximity to various amenities and recreational facilities encourages an active and healthy lifestyle. Residents can easily access fitness centres, parks, restaurants, and entertainment options, all within the same development, leading to a more fulfilling and convenient way of life.

The top five reasons to buy in a mixed-use development

When buying a property, everyone needs to be aware of the additional costs that come as part of the buying process.

Often the largest outlay, after the deposit which goes to the bank, is stamp duty.

<h2 style="line-height: 1.38;">What is Stamp Duty?</h2>

Stamp duty is an extra tax to pay the government when you buy land, a property, and other certain assets.

It happens when the legal ownership is transferred. It can also be known as property transfer duty or transfer duty.

<h2>Who pays Stamp Duty?</h2>

In some circumstances, you may get an exemption. For some states, you won’t have to pay for stamp duty if you are a first home buyer or a pensioner for houses under a particular price. There are also stamp duty concessions, where you may be entitled to a discount.

<h2>How much does Stamp Duty cost?</h2>

Each state has different rules which affect how much you need to pay. These rules can affect the rate you pay, and the timeframe you will need to pay in. Before you buy land or a property, make sure you check the up-to-date information for your state’s stamp duty.

You can use a free stamp duty calculator online to see approximately how much you’ll need to pay. Find out if you’re eligible for an exemption by enquiring on a project via Urban!

Overall, the stamp duty you need to pay will depend on:

<ul>
	<li aria-level="1">How much your land/property is worth</li>

Off-the-plan property explained: What is stamp duty?

Boutique developers Norup + Wilson have been making a name for themselves across Perth for a number of years, having now amassed a portfolio that spans far and wide, with over half a billion dollars on the books.&nbsp;

Headed by Director’s John Norup and Dave Wilson, the group focuses on the owner-occupier, &nbsp;paying particular attention to the standard and range of first-class amenities on offer within their multi-level communities.&nbsp;

It’s been no different for the group’s imposing 21-storey community on the high-point of the coveted Mount Pleasant and Applecross peninsula - having attracted the interest of buyers not only for its enviable location.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8514 project_image_fid=203919]

“In order for a community to function efficiently and happily, an enormous amount of careful thought and effort needs to be invested in the planning, design and built-form solutions to which they lead,” said Wilson.&nbsp;

“From the outset of this ambitiously innovative residential development, my focus has been on ensuring that all the community facilities integrate seamlessly with the private living areas. In this way, resident privacy and security are maximised as elegantly as are the shared benefits of the resort-quality these facilities provide.”

“Our goal is to set an unrivalled benchmark in apartment living.”

The action begins across the ground floor, transitioning into a destination entertainment piazza featuring an eclectic assortment of cuisines and experiences, with a number of restaurants already operating on the doorstep of The Precinct, and a handful still to come.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8514 project_image_fid=203923]

More often than not, developments focus their private amenity offering around the pool. The Precinct has instead incorporated the facilities into distinct zones throughout, allowing residents to fully enjoy each space.&nbsp;

Reminiscent of the finest resorts across the world, The Precinct is home to an indoor and outdoor gym, a running track, a swimming pool, Bocci pit, cabana daybeds, Teppanyaki barbecues, a residents lounge and library, a wine room and a kid’s play room.&nbsp;

For the exclusive use of Sky Residents from levels 17 to 21, a Sky Lounge is also part of The Precinct, encompassing some of the best views on the west coast.&nbsp;

“The only difference between this peaceful escape from the everyday and the kind of relaxing, five-star resort you’d find in some distant tropical paradise, is that this one is yours. Your own piece of paradise,” Wilson said.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8514 project_image_fid=203920]

The Precinct stands as the most prominent landmark in the Canning Bridge Precinct, commanding views of every facet of the city, from Kings Park and the CBD, to the converging Swan and Canning Rivers and the distant escarpment to the east.&nbsp;

Norup + Wilson chose the landmark site to maximise the Melville Council’s $235 million redevelopment vision for the precinct. Over the next ten years the Canning Bridge area is expected to be transformed with an expanded train station, river ferry and revitalised town centre on par with what was witnessed at Subiaco and East Perth.&nbsp;

"Your own piece of paradise": Inside the Mount Pleasant apartments with resort-inspired amenities

The Gold Coast is always at its busiest over Christmas, as southern capital dwellers heading to the Sunshine State over the holidays.

And that's not lost on some developers who know there is always a considerable amount of interest in property over the booming December and January period.

Online search is up, and so is foot traffic. With just two months to go until the end of the year, a number of developers have seen enough early enquiry to be getting their projects in market before we close 2022 and new projects start launching in 2023.

We've had a look at the best Gold Coast projects launching before the end of 2022.

<h2>Project: North 
Developer: Gallery Group 
Address: 211 Surf Parade, Surfers Paradise 
Apartments: 93</h2>

The national property developer Gallery Group is set to launch North, its sister project to Chalk on Surf Parade, in the coming weeks.

There will be 93 apartments in North, which will be taller than Chalk at 28 levels. Over two thirds of the product mix in North is two-beds. There will be 26 three-bed apartments and two four-bedroom skyhomes, as well as a ground level business centre, a gym on level 11, and a pool on level 12.

<img alt="North pool" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e9c20931-776f-48ad-af1d-ad9afd4dbc0d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-11-03%20at%203.34.38%20pm.png?VersionId=4Wrb8HmKOV.kxsPf2lI93rRPbozlZGjH" />

&nbsp;

North has been designed by architects MAS, who&nbsp;took cues from Chalk. The aim was to create a "distinctly recognisable form that integrates into the established character of the area, whilst complementing its southern neighbour.

"Apartments have been designed with coastal living at the forefront of mind, with expansive living zones transitioning out to articulated balconies, offering privacy and comfort and encouraging the notion of sub-tropical Queensland living," MAS noted in their submission to the Gold Coast Council.

<h2>Project: Holm Rainbow Bay 
Developer: Chapter Two 
Address: 44-50 Eden Avenue, Rainbow Bay 
Apartments: 86</h2>

The Brisbane developer Chapter Two is set to break into the Gold Coast market with its much anticipated Holm, Rainbow Bay development.

Two-bedroom apartments are expected to start in the $800,000's, one of the most affordable products in the area which has been one of the hottest pockets since the pandemic.

They'll offer a rare trifecta of views, with ocean river and Gold Coast hinterland outlooks, including views over Snapper Rocks.

Designed by Plus Architecture, some&nbsp;of the two-bedders will offer additional multi-purpose rooms, the same deal with the three-bedroom apartments.

<img alt="Holm" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2d030112-6935-4f15-a1f6-a5b5d4cf4d17" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-11-03%20at%2012.12.06%20pm.png?VersionId=eZVoip58gGvml87XjerkM0i8ZNquRp.3" />

Following the success of their Infinity, Broadbeach development, Bassar Construction Group are set to launch their next in Broadie.

Bassar, who sold out the 62-apartment, 39-storey Infinity development in March, currently under construction on the corner of Surf Parade and George Avenue, will be creating a Eternity, around the corner at 14-18 Mary Avenue Eternity.

<img alt="Bassar Eternity" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="f0a6c3f3-08e8-4046-baae-f9dcedd9068e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-11-03%20at%201.37.49%20pm.png?VersionId=5LkJPjbDqW5VLiHQRaGLzvCx_06P8o6F" />

“The major appeal of this site is the unobstructed ocean views because that is what people expect when they visualise their sea change on the Gold Coast,” said Leo Sarris, who heads up Bassar Construction Group alongside Simon Bassil.

“Our commitment and focus remain in Broadbeach because we feel it is the suburb that caters for everyone and everything you need is within walking distance.” Located opposite Broadbeach State School, the site is currently home to two seventies-style blocks of flats across two titles."

Gold Coast-based Plus Architecture was engaged to conceive a slender design which improves upon an existing development approval sold with the site.

Eternity will offer three and four-bedroom floor plans ranging from 190 sqm to 300 sqm, in addition to the 500 sqm for the penthouse suites.

Apartments will each have a double garage, while the penthouses come with triple car parking, a rooftop terrace and a plunge pool.

MPG are currently building Sanbar Burleigh Beach nearby.

The top 6 Gold Coast apartment developments still to launch in 2022

As development ramps up across Western Sydney, especially in the state’s second CBD, Sydney group, SW Developments are next to join the line in keen developers looking to benefit from the growing pipeline of infrastructure upgrades and projects set for the burgeoning area.&nbsp;

The group has lodged plans for two sites within the City of Parramatta, taking up shop in both Thallon Street and Shirley Street in Carlingford.&nbsp;

Dickson Rothschild prepared the designs for the 12-storey towers, which are similar in design and will deliver a total of 178 apartments upon completion.&nbsp;

Located near the new Carlingford Light Rail Station, the 9-11 Thallon Street site has been designed to cater for the family owner-occupier, contributing to the changing demographics of Carlingford with the addition of a restaurant and retail space across the ground floor.&nbsp;

<img alt="Artist's impression of the Thallon St development " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="313d283b-41a4-472f-96d4-66f0e81188cc" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-11-02%20at%203.02.27%20pm.png?VersionId=vLq05ycaOMtp0ALv2VAtsOcB9fU.Finl" /> 
Artist's impression of the Thallon St development.

43 two-bedroom apartments will be constructed, along with 37 three-bedroom and 11 four-bedroom residences.&nbsp;

Divided via two slots, the tower will be infiltrated with an abundance of natural light and ventilation in the internal corridors, with the elements also modulating the tower’s facade.

The proposed development achieves a built form with good proportions and a balanced composition.&nbsp;

The four-storey podium achieves a human scale within the streetscape with defined bricks in a nod to the existing older building within the streetscape, complemented with an underlying base colour and a lighter frame which reflects the more modern developments in the neighbourhood.&nbsp;

Taking inspiration from the podium, the tower framing elements extend above the roof parapet, crowning the corners of each tower.&nbsp;

The north-eastern portion of the site is landscaped with both communal areas and private terraces, providing additional vegetation on the built form, which softens the tower and provides a complimentary space to the public open area towards the light rail station.&nbsp;

<img alt="Artist's impression of the Shirley St development" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9c2b1153-0ce7-451b-977c-5d163ecb3780" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-11-02%20at%203.03.15%20pm.png?VersionId=LNM2Urs1tKn6zRjBiOrSlfhxaptNOAtx" />Artist's impression of the Shirley St development.

The communal open space for the development is located on level one, featuring a pool, barbecue facilities, a gym, spa and a common room. Communal open space will also be provided on the rooftop, embellished in lush landscaping.&nbsp;

Thallon Street benefits from being nearby to a number of goods, services, amenities and public transport options, with a broad concentration of retail and dining businesses, as well as community facilities including parks, recreation centres and schools in the surrounding areas.&nbsp;

The Shirley Street development will take place across a 3,141 sqm site, delivering 87 apartments, with a mix of one, two, three and four-bedroom floorplans atop a 76-place childcare centre and basement carparking.&nbsp;

It said the new proposal would result in better communal open space, a unit mix weighted more on larger apartments.&nbsp;

Conceived as a slender tower, two one-bedroom apartments will feature, along with 41 two-bedroom, 43 three-bedroom and one four-bedroom.&nbsp;

Open space will be provided to the south of the site, along with a communal rooftop space, complete with lush landscaping, shaded seating and barbecue facilities.&nbsp;

“The proposed building as amended provides for a high-quality development … on a strategic site in very close proximity of the new light rail station and within proximity of significant buildings within the core of the Carlingford Precinct,” the development application said.&nbsp;

“This building will set a good standard for urban consolidation and design.”

“The proposal achieves a reasonable transition from the denser development around the light rail to the lower density areas within the precinct to the north.”

“The form of the building has been crafted to take into consideration site constraints and has arisen out of urban design analysis taking into account the site context.”

Located near the new Carlingford Light Rail Station, the 9-11 Thallon Street site has been designed to cater for the family owner-occupier, contributing to the changing demographics of Carlingford with the addition of a restaurant and retail space across the ground floor. 

SW Developments lodge plans for two apartment towers in Sydney’s West 

Melbourne-based developer Beulah has secured another development site in Melbourne's inner-ring.

The new site in Brunswick is likely to yield&nbsp;to deliver an eco-conscious and locally-considered townhomes project, with Six Degrees Architects already drawing up the plans.

Six Degrees Architects, leaders in social and sustainable architecture, will create just 25&nbsp;low-rise, eco-sustainably&nbsp;townhomes targeting carbon-neutral, that will consciously seek to retain the existing heritage facade on-site and add immense value to the precinct through community-focused, biophilic design and ecologically sustainable materials.

The site at 17-23 Hodgson Street spans over 3,700 sqm and boasts two extensive street frontages totalling over 120m.

The new site is ideally positioned between Sydney Road’s famed retail precinct including Barkly Square Shopping Centre and Union Square Shopping Centre and is walking distance to some of Melbourne’s most loved parklands including Royal Park, Princes Park and the Melbourne Zoo, while being a stone’s throw from the picturesque Temple Park.

Beulah Managing Director Jiaheng Chan said the site presents an exciting opportunity to engage with the community to deliver homes that will be warmly welcomed by locals.

“Brunswick is a thriving creative and environmentally-conscious pocket of Melbourne and we look forward to working with the local people and community to do the site justice,” he said.

“We are excited to work with Six Degrees Architects to deliver a raw, heritage warehouse-style, ecologically sustainable townhome collection that is designed to be low-density, unique and kind on the environment.

“Our aim is to attract like-minded individuals to this fantastic location, with an opportunity to live and breathe all the wonderful things that Brunswick and its people have to offer.”

Six Degrees Director Peter Malatt is excited to be collaborating with Beulah to transform the historic warehouse precinct into 25 Brunswick townhomes.

“We are an architectural practice with a strong connection with Brunswick, and a passion for its unique character and history," Malatt said.

"We appreciate its sense of community, and we love its stories. Having completed the Heller Street park and townhouses, which one our directors lives in, as well as the Spanish Cellars apartments in adjacent streets, gives us an opportunity to leverage this local knowledge and play off the rich history of the site.

“Beulah and Six Degrees is a natural collaborative partnership and we are really looking forward to working together on this fantastic project. Our vision in transforming spaces, creating experiences and a sense of community is strongly aligned. We have a shared passion for creating 25 exceptional homes along with an authentic, meaningful precinct that is strongly connected to Brunswick.”

The ecological approach for Brunswick follows in the footsteps of Beulah’s most innovative residential project to date, The Wilds, set to become the first carbon-neutral detached housing development in inner Melbourne.

The Brunswick site joins Beulah’s growing portfolio in Melbourne’s inner north including Fitzroy and Northcote.

Chevron Island is set to welcome its first ever two-tower development.

A private local developer has submitted plans for what will be Chevron Island's second largest development, with 277 apartments planned across two 30 and 35-level towers.

Site amalgamation specialists GV Property Group sold the 17 Illawong Street site, a huge 3,033 sqm site which straddles Illawong and Dalpura Streets, on behalf of 20 unit owners in a tired 1960s block of townhouses.

<a data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e2fff24b-afd7-4bbf-94c5-07718a74e7c9" href="/new-apartments/illawong-surfers-paradise-17-illawong-street-chevron-island"><img alt="Chevron tower" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e2fff24b-afd7-4bbf-94c5-07718a74e7c9" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-11-02%20at%205.10.45%20pm.png?VersionId=oLz5rfoyZDR.G.ZlUaZXLZP87dhPyg.Z" /></a>

Plus Architecture say the two tower scheme was a response to views, shaping the towers to respond to views in all directions.

"Views to the hinterland to the west, views to Southport Spit to the north, views of the Nerang River to the south and most importantly views of Surfers Paradise and the ocean to the east," Plus noted in the design statement submitted to the local council.

"Starting with such a primary function – achieving broad vistas in all directions – the planning was simple."

Plus said that a significant amount of time was spent crafting the floor plates into sculpted forms that not only responded to the views but worked to create a delicacy of form, cast shadow and create movement when viewed from each direction.

"The two residential towers work together in almost perfect symmetry, offset but balanced to respect orientation but also allow for privacy, light and setback within the site."

There will be 126 apartments in the northern tower, a mix of 72 two-beds and 51 three-bed units. The southern tower, the taller of the two, will have 87 two-beds, 61 three-bed apartments, and three four-bedroom penthouses, a total of 151 units.

Level 28 of the northern tower will feature three sub-penthouses. Levels 29 and 30 of the northern tower will have three double storey sky homes.

There will be the same layout across the southern tower, just at higher levels.

<a data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="0782816b-44b5-47b4-9d65-7a9089771c02" href="/new-apartments/illawong-surfers-paradise-17-illawong-street-chevron-island"><img alt="Chevron Island" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="0782816b-44b5-47b4-9d65-7a9089771c02" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-11-02%20at%205.10.39%20pm.png?VersionId=rVrT96sf08xsSYY2Q_c67jS1ttfDkqXr" /></a>

Typically there will be five apartments per floor. The floorplates of both towers have been designed with three units orientated to the north and two units to the south or east.

There will be 381 resident car parks across three levels of basement and two podium levels of parking, as well as an additional 30 visitor parking spaces on the ground level.

Resident amenity will occupy the top of the podium, shared across the two buildings. There will be an infinity pool, a gym with a yoga deck, a spa garden with a sauna and steam room and outdoor plunge and cold pools, an outdoor barbecue and dining area, a work from home lounge, and a private dining room.

Plus noted the height in the design, given the towers will be the second and third tallest on the Island.

"Height was another careful consideration in the design – sited in an unlimited height area it was critical that a balance of scale and form was achieved.

"One tower is 30 storeys in height and the other 35 storeys to introduce a dynamic perspective of the development from all angles. By altering the heights of the two towers the perceived bulk and scale is also reduced and the towers are read as having two distinct identities, one recessive, the other more prominent."

There are currently nine developments either approved or under construction on Chevron Island, which has become a hotbed for residential development in recent years.

The Melbourne-based Bensons Property really kicked off the high-rise trend with Chevron One, the 41-level tower on Stanhill Drive currently under construction.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6515 project_image_fid=68839]

Designed by global architecture practice Marchese Partners, the architects behind the iconic Bondi Icebergs, Chevron One Residences is rapidly earning the moniker of being the ‘millionaires’ tower’ with all remaining apartments priced well over $1 million. The project is now 60 per cent sold, and recently secured&nbsp;the highest price per sqm for an apartment on the Gold Coast.

The four-bedroom apartment, part of the Daylight Sky Homes collection, sold for $9 million to a well-known Sydney family, who intend to make the luxury apartment a local base for their vacations and school holidays. The family also acquired a three-bedroom apartment for family members.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6515 project_image_fid=68833]

The $9 million sale of apartment 3802 transacted at $25,000 per sqm, topping the previous record of $24,725 per sqm. The four-bedroom apartment spans over 364 sqm.

Brent Thompson's Siera is currently selling Tapestry, an arts-inspired project near Chevron One on Darrambal Street.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108641 project_image_fid=192963]

The development approved-project of 113 apartments, on the sought-after eastern side of Chevron Island near the bridge that takes residents over to Surfers Paradise, pays homage to Chevron Island's arts and cultural precinct.

Inspired by HOTA and designed to be a ‘home amongst the art’, Tapestry will feature one of the most impressive rooftop amenity's on the island, with a sunken swimming pool, gym, and private dining area.

There's Nina by Macquarie York also being developed on Chevron, their second project on the island after Allure. There's also Citimark's Mirador at&nbsp;8 Mawarra Street

Brisbane developer Ention's Greenwich, a design inspired by New York's Flatiron building, is all-but sold out.

Currently awaiting approval is Vaun Developments' Aurum project, which will bring something different to Chevron Island.

Vaun Developments, led by young entrepreneur Luke Vaughan who founded and now runs Gold Coast estate agency Crown Realty, and his business partner, construction industry veteran Geoff&nbsp;Pontefract, are plotting a boutique project of just eight two-level apartments, each set to have nearly 320 sqm of internal space, four bedrooms, a multipurpose room, and a study. Each level of the apartments will open to a 23 sqm balcony space.

Aurum, Latin for gold, will also have the largest apartment ever offered in Chevron Island. The massive penthouse will spans three levels and features its own rooftop pool and full barbecue kitchen.

In a bid to improve housing supply and affordability, the Western Australian Government further built on the states rebates for off the plan apartments back in May this year.&nbsp;

Conceived as part of the state’s largest budget, the new $50,000 rebate is in place for purchasers of off the plan apartments until the end of October 2023.&nbsp;

There is a sliding scale for concessions for a pre-construction contract entered into between 1 June 2022 and 24 October 2023.

Buyers will see 100 per cent of the duty paid by the WA Government if the property is&nbsp;valued at $500,000 or less, capped at a maximum of $50,000

There will be between 100 per cent and 50 per cent of the duty paid if the property is valued at more than $500,000 but less than $600,000.

Then from $600,000 plus, 50 per cent of the duty is paid, capped at a maximum of $50,000.

Western Australia Premier Mark McGowan said the budget measure was focused on lifting housing supply while addressing unaffordability.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8516 project_image_fid=205534]

“The measures would create a pipeline of more affordable homes into the future, while also providing greater assistance to those seeking to purchase homes at the affordable end of the market, and aim to smooth the construction pipeline beyond the current boom in activity,” he said.&nbsp;

Stirling Capital's Cirque Duet has apartments that will see buyers pay $0 stamp duty. Prices start from $495,000 for the one-bedroom stock in the resort-inspired Mount Pleasant development.

Conceived as twin towers, Cirque Duet residences are connected above street level through an expansive podium of more than 3,000 sqm, housing the project's extensive amenity offering.&nbsp;

From a heated swimming pool to a children’s playground, Cirque Duet offers up some of the best Perth has to offer.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8516 project_image_fid=191424]

The podium also features a spa and sauna, a gym, private dining rooms, cabanas, a cocktail bar, and barbecue facilities.&nbsp;

The amenity continues inside as well, with residents treated to a luxury cinema to watch all the latest blockbusters from the comfort of their own home, and a library.&nbsp;

Along the ground floor, the hotel-inspired lobbies also feature a concierge desk and access to a business centre and meeting room.&nbsp;

Southport is set for a new apartment development which have been mooted as more affordable than other apartments on the market.

The eight-storey building at 18 Bauer Street will comprise 54 apartments, a mix of 16 three-bedroom and 38 two-bedroom units which BDA said will offer quality apartment design in a central location and at an affordable price point.

The apartments will be set atop a communal podium and expansive entry lobby, with a small-leaved Fig and landscaping penned for the space.&nbsp;

Softly curved balconies and vertical blade walls combine with a textured and timeless material palette, featuring light-textured face brick and a mix of coloured and rendered concrete.&nbsp;

<img alt="Southport tower" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="5c48d8a1-2031-4d57-a2f9-ce9a6b53060d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-11-02%20at%203.24.41%20pm.png?VersionId=WDoGQqpWuZx_GYN5vSbwOYtCKuhR2Din" />

The bladed walls sweep toward the base transitioning into curved podium planters, complemented by further planting across the site’s boundaries, in addition to cascading and screening landscaping.&nbsp;

"As designed, the project will provide a memorable sculptural apartment building,"&nbsp;BDA noted in their design statement submitted as part of the development application.

“In its overall shape, massing and composition, the external form of the project has been developed through a considered analysis of the physical form, existing character, climatic conditions and envisaged potential for the site."

<img alt="Southport tower" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e5ed25ad-03c2-4c92-a54f-58ba5556e263" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-11-02%20at%203.24.51%20pm.png?VersionId=ObiQ0vF9ZujOUvwIIn9f5neuHgUG0Fav" />

The architecture firm said the design intent is to contribute positively to the image, identity and overall quality of the context through achieving a high quality urban environment with appropriately expressive built form and activated and interesting street frontages.

Externally, the tower will be made up of predominantly glass and rendered painted concrete, with the base also including a mix of brick, stone cladding and aluminium battens.&nbsp;

Future residents will also benefit from the site's close proximity to the Ferry Road Markets, along with Southport Shopping Centre, the CBD and an array of public and private schools.

<img alt="Southport tower" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="4f89cd97-1d47-4f05-a730-7f3d18e00ca9" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-11-02%20at%203.24.17%20pm.png?VersionId=3mLdflRd5MS3UG.pCav8qcYKI61vsm8o" />

"Through thoughtful considered analysis of the context and its location within Southport, the design builds on the existing contextual qualities and re-defines the existing Neighbourhood Centre with an appropriate urban response," BDA added.

"The design approach will result in the addition of a high quality, engaging apartment building providing considerable amenity for residents, visitors and neighbours alike."

The plans were filed by a&nbsp;company associated with local builder and Kriptal director, Ralf Hecke. 
 
Hecke's Kriptal most recently developed the Brightwater Apartments in Labrador.

The apartments will be set atop a communal podium and expansive entry lobby, with a small-leaved Fig and landscaping penned for the space

"Affordable" new apartments set for Southport

Only 10 kilometres from the heart of the city, Ivanhoe is one of Melbourne’s most historically rich neighbourhoods.

Recognised as an area with great vitality and landscape appeal, Ivanhoe is bordered by Darebin Creek to the west and the Yarra River to the south, and offers a unique village lifestyle surrounded by parks, walking paths and golf courses – making it a walker’s paradise.&nbsp;

The unique charm and potential of Ivanhoe was what attracted developers Salter Brothers, who have taken to the unique location in the heart of Ivanhoe village to deliver their latest residential project, Candela Apartments.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=169535]

The investment group’s impressive portfolio comprises luxury residences, hotels and restaurants in some of Australia’s most desirable locations.

Salter Brothers engaged John Demos Architects to design the 62 apartments for his deep architectural experience and knowledge of the uniquely shaped site with uninterrupted views across to the Melbourne skyline and Dandenong Ranges.&nbsp;&nbsp;John Demos Architects was founded in Melbourne in 1984 by Demos himself.

Collaborating with his sister, interior designer Kathy Demos, Candela Apartments delivers a mix of one, two, three and four bedroom apartments plus penthouses. In addition, there are three double storey family- sized loft apartments, comprising four bedrooms with a second upstairs living zone, dedicated study area, laundry chute and an opulent master bedroom suite.

Rather than existing as one form, the building has been separated into a series of curved forms. The design allows for points of transition from one form to the next, while also creating a sense of space and privacy between the residences.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=169544]

Distinguished by a glass facade, the layered materiality of the Candela Apartments, coupled with the structural design, interacts with natural light, inviting an abundance into each of the homes.

The apartments are considered as a retreat for rest and rejuvenation. Generously sized and designed with options to suit all purchasers whether they be downsizers, first home buyers, couples or families without compromising on amenity, location or quality.

Internally, apartments include an over-sized living areas and bedrooms, complemented by stone bench tops throughout, wool carpets in the bedrooms, Miele kitchen appliances and an integrated refrigerator.

Each of the apartments also features excellent natural light and views, whilst the penthouses enjoy large terraces with top floor panoramic views.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=169537]

Benefiting from the height and orientation of the building,&nbsp;residents will enjoy unrivalled views from the city skyline or the Dandenong Ranges.

With the city only 20 minutes away by car or train, the development presents the opportunity to live in one of Melbourne’s most rewarding and connected locations. Stroll two minutes up the road for a morning coffee, grocery shopping, gourmet dining, all services and more, with the village conveniences delivering the ultimate inner-urban lifestyle.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=342]

In the heart of Ivanhoe Village designed to suit the lifestyles of families, couples and singles alike.
