There aren’t many luxury penthouses in Fitzroy, fewer still that offer unobstructed views, two separate living zones, and over 300 sqm of living space. Especially in a Melbourne suburb better known for terrace houses and converted warehouses than for vertical-scale opulence.

But well-known local developer <a href="/developers/sma-projects">SMA Projects</a> has reserved the entire top floor of its newest apartment development,&nbsp;<a href="/new-apartments/the-regent-fitzroy-340-fitzroy-street-fitzroy-vic-3065">The Regent Fitzroy</a>, for two apartments, but one very distinct penthouse that will stand unrivalled in the popular inner-city suburb.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24824 project_image_fid=304614]

The penthouse, with its immense north-facing view, is the largest in the block. The four-bedroom residence has been cleverly designed by Hayball Architects to include two separate living areas, accommodating a variety of household needs, from young families wanting a second space for children, to those approaching the empty-nester stage, with adult children studying at university.

At the heart of the home is a central kitchen, designed and realised by the renowned interiors team at Studio Tate. It is anchored by a full-length island bench with an overhang intended for casual dining and entertaining. It also includes a full butler’s pantry, an inclusion more typically found in high-end houses than in city apartments.&nbsp;

This open-plan space, which incorporates the main living area and a dedicated dining zone, is framed by a wraparound terrace that is deep and long enough to accommodate multiple lounge areas, a dedicated outdoor kitchen, and an alfresco dining space.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24824 project_image_fid=304613]

The master suite features a walk-through wardrobe, a double vanity, a freestanding bath, and a shower, and it opens directly onto the terrace. Easily the showstopper at this old Fitzroy theatre site of its original namesake. Each of the three additional bedrooms also includes their own en-suite with showers.

To preserve the functionality of the main living areas, Studio Tate has demonstrated refined design thinking to incorporate a separate study, featuring a long, integrated desk ideal for multiple work-from-home setups, tucked privately away from the main living zones. Meanwhile, the laundry, often squeezed into a butler’s pantry in more typical compact designs you’d find throughout Fitzroy, has been given its own fully dedicated room.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24824 project_image_fid=304603]

The Regent occupies the former site of the old Regent Theatre, which was demolished in the early 1980s. In response to this storied inner Melbourne history, SMA Projects, Hayball Architects and Studio Tate have drawn subtle references from the site’s cinematic past through materiality and form.

The Regent's design includes curved motifs, tactile surfaces, and dual interior palettes which were inspired by the glamour and texture of the classic cinema architecture of the original building.

While both top-floor apartments benefit from the development’s broader architectural language, the penthouse asserts a distinct presence through its positioning, size, and north-facing outlook.

The Regent presents a considered selection of luxurious, hotel-inspired amenities—including concierge service, a private guest suite, resident workshop, dog wash station, and curated ground-floor retail—designed to offer comfort, convenience, and a lifestyle defined by distinction.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24824 project_image_fid=304615]

Importantly, all apartments in the building offer on-title car parking with no stackers or car lifts, a practical point of difference that will appeal to owner-occupiers.

Positioned in one of Fitzroy’s quieter pockets, The Regent is still within walking distance to Brunswick Street, Smith Street, and Carlton Gardens.

Tram connections also place the city within eight minutes of the CBD, while surrounding dining, cultural and retail amenities remain a drawcard for local and interstate buyers alike.

The Regent will comprise 64 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, with two-bedroom, two-bathroom residences starting from $699,000 and the penthouse selling at $8,500,000.

Currently, off the plan apartment buyers in Victoria can purchase with no stamp duty for a limited time only.

SMA Projects unveils its luxury penthouse crowning The Regent Fitzroy

Sydney rich-lister Ian Malouf has launched a sales campaign for the three-level spread atop his completed Broadbeach apartment development, REMI Residences.

The REMI Residences penthouse on Surf Parade spans 1,200 sqm and features six bedrooms, two of which are in a self-contained apartment, and a&nbsp;wine cellar with a dedicated tasting room.

The private rooftop is the standout, complete with a swimming pool and a rooftop pickleball court, the first in the world.

<img alt="REMI" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="35123635-971e-40d7-83ea-f4eed18c858e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-04-07%20at%201.35.44%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=Z2aGQZJXp6zRBjKX8hDAlSPGnUZh3hVc" />

&nbsp;

“This development reflects what we like in our yachts and residences in scale, design, finishes and artwork," Malouf said.

"Our objective was to create a world-class penthouse."

Highland agent Hanan Cawley says there is no completed luxury penthouse product of this calibre currently available in the central Gold Coast.

“This is a rare chance to experience and purchase an ultra-luxury residence that is not just conceptual, but fully complete and ready to occupy.”

<img alt="REMI" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a61367ab-e871-41e7-90ac-73527cbb8159" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-04-07%20at%201.36.11%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=EaD7T5imi7.l5FagOMUJj5OPLFtC.o5z" />

&nbsp;

REMI Residences, completed last year, features a suite of five-star amenities including spa treatment rooms, saunas and steam rooms, hot and cold plunge pools, and a 15-metre lap pool.

David Highland, CEO of Highland Property, said the REMI penthouse is&nbsp;one of the most remarkable penthouses he's seen anywhere in the world.

&nbsp;

“It’s not just the size and scale—it’s the lifestyle, the finish, the readiness. Ian’s created something truly iconic here.”

World-first rooftop pickleball court crowns new Gold Coast penthouse

There’s nothing quite like a new penthouse listing.

Beachfront apartment developments, particularly at the southern end of the Gold Coast, are incredibly rare. This makes the penthouses that crown developments like <a href="/new-apartments/pipis-bilinga-303-golden-four-drive-bilinga-qld-4225">PIPIS</a> even more unique.

Developer <a href="/developers/siera">SIERA</a> has been working toward the completion of the luxury 11-level Golden Four Drive development, located on the sands of Bilinga Beach. They are anticipating welcoming residents at the end of 2025. Now, they've released a first look inside the luxury two-level penthouses, which are expected to set a new apartment record for this quiet beachside suburb.

Each penthouse spans 446 sqm of internal and external living space across the top two levels of the Ellivo Architects-designed building.

The PIPIS Penthouse Collection is defined by high-end finishes, including natural stone, Navurban Balmoral and Plytec Blossom joinery, woodcut white-oiled natural timber, wool-textured loop carpet, and handmade feature tiles.

A sculptural spiral staircase serves as a striking focal point, complemented by a private lift offering seamless access between levels.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138311 project_image_fid=341447]

Floor-to-ceiling windows wrap almost entirely around the penthouses, framing panoramic views of the coastline. Each residence has been designed for indoor-outdoor living with four balconies and two entertainment areas, one of which is positioned on the rooftop and will be home to a private plunge pool with a sun deck.

The kitchens are appointed with premium appliances, including an induction cooktop, combination steam oven, speed oven, ZIP tap, InSinkErator, built-in coffee machine, and a butler’s pantry with a wine cellar.

The penthouses offer four spacious bedrooms, one of which is an expansive master suite with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite.

Each penthouse includes four secure car spaces with EV charging, dedicated bike and surfboard storage, and a full-size laundry with an outdoor drying court.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138311 project_image_fid=264308]

PIPIS comprises just 17 half-floor apartments, as well as the two penthouses.

Residents of PIPIS will have access to a range of private ground-floor amenities, including a 15-metre heated lap pool with a sun lounge deck, a fully equipped gym with rowing, biking, and reformer Pilates facilities, as well as an outdoor rain-head shower and dog wash station.

PIPIS has been popular with owner-occupiers, downsizers, and investors from both Brisbane and the Gold Coast, while a handful of buyers have come from outside Sydney and Melbourne.

The highest settled sale price for an apartment in Bilinga is $4.6 million, in the recently completed Si Bilinga block, just a few doors down from PIPIS.

PIPIS penthouses turn heads in Bilinga

Just three penthouses remain for sale at Consolidated Properties' Monarch Residences in Toowong after a strong run of sales.

Eight of the 11 penthouse apartments have been snapped up in recent months, totalling nearly $50 million in sales alone.

The <a href="/new-apartments/monarch-residences-toowong-600-coronation-drive-toowong">Monarch Residences</a> Penthouse Collection feature elevated 3.2m ceilings, expansive views of the Brisbane River and city skyline, and an abundance of natural light. Each penthouse features unique floorplans with premium finishes like Herringbone oak floors, bespoke joinery, Dolce Vita quartzite benchtops and European-designed appliances.

Befitting its riverfront location, one of the final penthouses for sale is the last remaining 295 sqm River Home. The River Home boasts penthouse finishes and is positioned on the ground floor offering a leafy outlook at the river’s edge.

The additional two penthouses are the last remaining top-floor residences available. Both penthouses feature three bedrooms, a multi-purpose room, and three car spaces.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113455 project_image_fid=302323]

Colliers Director of Residential for Queensland, Andrew Scriven says the demand for Monarch’s top floors and unique River Homes has been incredibly strong, and the remaining penthouses will sell quickly.

"Since coming onto the market, the demand for these once-in-a-lifetime ultra-premium penthouse homes has been incredible," Scriven said.

"We’re continuing to see enquiry from local buyers as well as from out-of-state buyers. The level of interest in these homes speaks to the calibre and design of the Penthouse Collection."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113455 project_image_fid=302326]

The average purchase price of the penthouses has been $5.85 million.&nbsp;The purchasers include a mix of Brisbane-based downsizers and families.

Consolidated Properties Group CEO and chairman Don O’Rorke says the development team’s vision was to deliver a super-premium residential project worthy of its unique north-facing location on the Brisbane River.

“The Monarch Residences penthouses offer unparalleled views, elegant design, and the kind of luxury living rarely seen in Brisbane,” O’Rorke said.

“Every apartment in the buildings is beautiful and in a class of its own – but with the penthouses, we’ve created a very small, exclusive set of residences that elevate themselves into a new class.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113455 project_image_fid=211496]

Monarch Residences comprises a total of 224 apartments across two 15-level towers. It sits on a prime 1.2-hectare site with 130m-plus of north-facing direct river frontage with views from St Lucia to Mt Coot-Tha.

Residents at Monarch Residences will have direct access to the historic heritage-listed Middenbury House, which sits on the site and is currently being restored and refurbished.

Monarch Residences is currently under construction with Hutchinson Builders. Anticipated move-in for owners is by the end of 2025.

There are less than 10 residences and penthouses for sale, with a starting price for three-to-four bedroom riverfront residences from $4.4 million.

Local developer Sherpa Property Group looks set to break the <a href="/developments/chevron-island-qld-4217">Chevron Island</a> apartment record at its newly released luxury development, Perspective Helm.

The 10 apartments, including four river residences and two two-level penthouses, ranging in price from $3.7 million to $10 million. A sale close to $10 million would surpass the island record, set in Chevon One where a penthouse sold for $9 million. That too set a record $25,000 per sqm.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143018 project_image_fid=289075]

It is the Eastern Penthouse which is listed for just shy of $10 million. Spanning 917 sqm across two levels, the penthouse features four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a cinema, and an additional multipurpose room. There will also be a wine display cellar and a private rooftop with an outdoor kitchen, pool, pizza oven and firepit, as well as panoramic views of Surfers Paradise.

Eight of the 10 apartments in <a href="/new-apartments/perspective-helm">Perspective Helm</a> have already been snapped up by local and oversees buyers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143018 project_image_fid=289077]

<a href="/developers/sherpa-property-group">Sherpa</a> General Manager Daniel Clarke says the swift uptake of Perspective Helm underscores the project’s exceptional design and prime location.

“Our commitment to delivering high-calibre projects in prime locations is clearly resonating with buyers," Clarke says.

"Perspective Helm sets a new benchmark for luxury living.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143018 project_image_fid=313575]

Perspective Helm, on a prime 1,711 sqm north-facing, riverfront site at 107 Stanhill Drive, has been designed in collaboration with HAL Architects and MAS Architectural Studio.

There are a handful of private marina berths with vessels up to 18 metres.

Local builder <a href="/builders/lps-group">LPS Group</a> is in charge of the build. Excavation is underway and the project is expected to complete by late 2025.

Elsewhere on the Gold Coast, Sherpa is currently delivering <a href="/new-apartments/perspective-nexus">Perspective Nexus</a>, another boutique apartment development in Palm Beach, and <a href="/new-apartments/flourish-on-sixth-ave-6-12-sixth-avenue-palm-beach">Flourish on Sixth</a>, part of their new brand to offer more affordable apartments to the local market. That too is in <a href="/developments/palm-beach-qld-4221">Palm Beach</a>.

Sherpa’s Perspective Helm to challenge Chevron Island apartment record

Penthouses and Surry Hills/Redfern don't often go hand in hand.

The predominantly low-rise, inner-city suburbs, starved of new apartment development in the last decade, haven't witnessed true penthouse living like some of its neighbouring suburbs. Until now.

Builder developer TOGA recently drew back the curtain on&nbsp;<a href="/buildings/surry-hills-village-redfern-6-14-baptist-street-redfern-nsw-2016">Surry Hills Village</a>, the redevelopment of the former 'Murder Mall' on the fringe of Redfern and Surry Hills.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=9302 project_image_fid=306319]

They strategically kept one penthouse until completion, but that's already been snapped.

The buyer has likely paid a price that would be toward the top of the record books in both Surry Hills and Redfern, given the three-bedroom penthouse was being offered with expressions of interest above $7.5 million.

<a href="/architects/sjb-architects">SJB</a> Director Adam Haddow took inspiration from his&nbsp;own award-winning Redfern residence when designing the penthouses at Surry Hills Village.

"The open living and garden courtyards, the framing of the views, privacy without fences… all these features draw on my investigations in creating my own home," Haddow said.

The idea was to create a peaceful retreat, something rarely found in the inner city.

The penthouse features a main terrace area, designed for alfresco dining, a striking kitchen with a scullery, marble island and integrated Sub-Zero Wolf appliances, and a custom bar area concealed behind leather-bound joinery doors, fitted with display shelving and a Sub-Zero wine fridge.

<img alt="TOGA" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="75d33db0-fea8-44a1-aeb6-7ebfcd46da7c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202024-11-25%20at%202.00.12%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=wjeV.xzOtbmNzqfzBtyYCXZyQ3xoXd7v" />

The recent completion of Surry Hills Village marks an eight-year journey for TOGA, who bought the former shopping centre way back in 2016.

Understanding the importance of the development given its prime position between two of Sydney's most popular suburbs, and at the end of Crown Street, Sydneysiders' go-to street for hospitality, TOGA knew they had to create something that befitted its location.

As well as the 122 apartments, Surry Hills Village is also home to Wunderlich Lane,&nbsp;designed as a lifestyle destination with 25 hospitality venues, markets, boutique retail stores, and creative workspaces.&nbsp;

Wunderlich Lane is already thriving, with several operators already having opened their doors.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=9302 project_image_fid=313542]

Coles, Vintage Cellars, Harris Farm, QMan Barber, Blooms The Chemist and Beyond Eyecare have now opened, and they will soon be joined by Lumi Dining Group, House Made Hospitality and Olympus Dining (by the Apollo Group). The precinct opens in stages until autumn next year.

TOGA is selling the final two and three-bedroom apartments in the building that is already proving to be a landmark for both residents and visitors.

In the penthouse market, buyers expect the highest level of detail in every aspect of the apartment, from the design and orientation to the finishes.

Respected Brisbane developer, <a href="/developers/consolidated-properties">Consolidated Properties</a>, left no stone unturned when crafting the penthouses atop <a href="/new-apartments/monarch-residences-toowong-600-coronation-drive-toowong">Monarch Residences</a>, one of the best riverfront apartment developments produced on the Brisbane River in decades.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113455 project_image_fid=302326]

They knew exactly the clientele they were creating their apartments for, the affluent downsizer.

The Consolidated team recently revealed the final six residences&nbsp;atop the two-tower development, now over 95 per cent sold and under construction by building giant Hutchinson's Builders.

We recently visited the Monarch Residences display suite, on site at&nbsp;at 600 Coronation Drive, <a href="/developments/toowong-qld-4066">Toowong</a>, to chat with Don and the team at Consolidated about what made the penthouse collection special.

Don says the team worked closely with&nbsp;<a href="/architects/john-wardle-architects">John Wardle Architects</a> and <a href="/architects/cottee-parker-architects">Cottee Parker</a>&nbsp;to create a collection of uncompromised focus on quality, timelessness, and attention to detail.

The final penthouses, created to evoke the same grandeur as a home just without the additional maintenance, range in size from 295 sqm to 347 sqm.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113455 project_image_fid=302322]

They each have different floorplans, but the level of luxury is the same throughout, from soaring 3.4-metre-high ceilings to sweeping views of the Brisbane River and the city skyline from the riverfront terraces.

Everything in the penthouses is top-of-the-line. Herringbone European oak flooring features throughout the living areas, while the kitchen, fitted with a suite of&nbsp;premium V-ZUG Swiss appliances, is anchored by an oversized island bench with&nbsp;Dolce Vita quartzite.

Prospective penthouse buyers, as well as those who have been lucky enough to secure a piece of Monarch Residences, will be moving into the riverfront development in late 2025.

"A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity": Don O'Rorke discusses the Monarch Residences Penthouse Collection

While Melbourne has seen a generational shift of new apartment towers in the last decade, the high-density sprawl is yet to reach Geelong.

Geelong, the harbourside city that has grown significantly due to millions of dollars worth of private and public investment, has only seen a handful of new apartment developments come to life in recent years.

Given the lack of new developments across the city, what has been even more rare has been the availability of new penthouses. That’s what makes the four penthouses atop <a href="/new-apartments/motif-geelong-1-york-street-geelong-vic-3220">Motif</a> Geelong, currently being developed by <a href="/developers/dm-property-icon-kajima">DM Property and Icon Kajima</a>, a golden opportunity for those looking to downsize on the edge of the burgeoning city.

Just four apartments sit on the penthouse level, and offer the ideal lockup and leave lifestyle which has proven scarce in the Geelong region for many years.

The timing of the release is set to benefit downsizers, given the VIC Government's move in October to <a href="/news/vic/vic-government-slashes-stamp-duty-for-off-the-plan-property-buyers-savings-available-immediately-oct-2024">scrap stamp duty in the new apartment space for 12 months</a>, a move that is likely to encourage downsizers in particular out of their family homes and into a new, large apartment, without the expensive duty transfer they would have previously paid.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136615 project_image_fid=311693]

The penthouses, three three-bedroom apartments and sole two-bedroom apartment, offer the best views from the sixth and highest level of the boutique York Street building designed by <a href="/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a>.

Each penthouse, with upgraded Fisher &amp; Paykel integrated appliances, offers expansive views of the Geelong CBD as well as water views of the bay. They have been oriented so the open plan kitchen, living and dining room meets the balcony that captures the extensive views.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136615 project_image_fid=311694]

Stuart Marsland, Principal of Rothelowman, said the site for Motif has the advantage of not just being on the edge of the city, but also the edge of the bay.

"Our vision was to provide high-quality spaces for living and working that take advantage of views in all directions," Marsland said.

An internal light well in the building invites additional daylight, while the&nbsp;ground floor features a communal, plaza-like area landscaped by ACRE, as well as a shared rooftop terrace.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136615 project_image_fid=241455]

More than 60 per cent of the 129 apartments have been snapped up since the development launch back in September last year. In a sign of tight supply in Geelong, there has only been one other development launch in the last 12 months.

The development has proven popular with local first home buyers, investors, both those from Melbourne and Sydney, as well as local downsizers.

Located at 1 York Street, just outside the CBD, the project is on the doorstep of Pakington Street’s bustling café and dining scene, the Little Malop Street cultural precinct home to the Geelong Library and Heritage Centre, and close to waterfront attractions.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136615 project_image_fid=295056]

Motif is the first apartment development on the Bellarine Peninsula to be built by regarded construction firm&nbsp;<a href="/builders/hamilton-marino">Hamilton Marino</a>, strengthening confidence in buyers the building will be completed to a high standard. There's also the expertise from Icon Developments, owned by the publicly listed Kajima Corporation, one of the world’s largest property and construction companies.

DM Property, founded by Brendan Mullan and David Dordevic, kicked off their development journey with the successful Sandringham townhouse development, Early 3191, which will be ready for occupancy early next year.

They have a new townhouse project coming up early next year in Brighton.

Construction of Motif is well underway, with completion slated for late 2025. RPM Group is handling the project sales.

Downsizers set to swoop on new penthouses at Motif Geelong

Elizabeth Bay has netted one of its highest apartment sales to date with a $24 million sale of a sub penthouse in the under-construction apartment development, Billyard Ave.

The highest price was set when the whole floor penthouse within the same project sold for $30 million to&nbsp;former head of USB Matt Allen, the owner of Sydney to Hobart winning ocean racer, Ichi Ban.

The other su bpenthouse sold for $22 million to Paul Keating’s confidante and lawyer Chris Coudounaris, and the garden manor residence sold for $17.5 million to Tina Green, widow of the late hotelier Maurice Green.&nbsp;

There are just&nbsp;nine residences in the high-end development that is almost complete.&nbsp;

The recent buyers of the sub penthouse are an Eastern Suburbs couple relocating from a large family home in Bellevue Hill with a strong affiliation with Elizabeth Bay. The property’s size, location, and unparalleled finishes were key factors in their decision to purchase.

Ray White Projects Managing Director,&nbsp;Eddie Mansour, says the sale of the sub penthouse at Billyard Ave demonstrates the unwavering demand for premium properties in this prestigious location.

"The unique features and the exceptional design of this residence have attracted buyers looking for something truly special," Mansour said.

“This sale not only underscores the rarity of house-sized apartments in the market, but also the continued trend of buyers looking to rightsize, rather than downsize, without compromising on luxury.

“The demand for these unique residences is stronger than ever.”

<img alt="East" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="1bec843e-a77b-4259-bddd-1e7c488777be" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202024-10-28%20at%201.14.28%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=G_6DwWk_8fmRHgpjQ3qYPd1seC6eKrdf" />

The apartment comprises four bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, three car spaces, and expansive living and dining areas, totaling 360 sqm of internal space with harbour views.

&nbsp;

Billyard Ave, designed by award-winning architects Adam Haddow and Victoria Judge from SJB, features nine exclusive residences ranging internally from 360 sqm to 400 sqm. The building will also showcase sculptures by renowned artist Mika Utzon Popov, further adding to its appeal.

Developer Peter Walsh from NorthEast Corp, in collaboration with Philippe Remond of P3 Living, is very proud of the project’s success.&nbsp;

"We envisioned a residence that met the needs of discerning buyers who value size, features, and finishes," Walsh says.

"The local market's reception has exceeded our expectations, proving that our vision resonates with those looking to embrace a luxurious lifestyle in the Eastern Suburbs,” Walsh said.

"Our financial partner, MA Financial, run by Andrew Pridham, recognised the demand for this unique project and bought into the vision of Billyard Avenue."

“We have had a tremendous response since launching La Belle, with the desire for low maintenance beachfront property in a secure building proving popular with downsizers and second homeowners,"&nbsp;Winterburn said.

"Our dedication to delivering state-of-the-art amenities, including a world-class wellness centre and opulent communal spaces, has clearly struck a chord with discerning buyers looking for a place to relax and spend time with family and friends at the beach."
