Developer&nbsp;New Hope Evergreen&nbsp;has sold three luxury penthouses across its two apartment developments in St Leonards.

They've secured an $8 million sale of The Grand Harbour penthouse in the completed The Landmark development, and two penthouses in their recently launched The Landmark Quarter development nearby.

CBRE's Tim Rees secured the sales of the two Landmark Quarter penthouses, for $9 million and $7.1 million.&nbsp;

“Identified as a new Sydney growth area, St Leonards developments are booming," Rees says.

"The NSW government has now finalised details of its planning changes, bringing 16,500 new jobs and 6680 dwellings into the suburb and neighbouring Crows Nest.

“Developers are acquiring property in the precinct as the state government plans to permit higher height limits, rezoning areas to address Sydney’s housing shortage and allowing more mixed-use developments close to where people want to live with transport, education, restaurants, health and education hubs nearby."

The Landmark Quarter, a collection of three Rothelowman-designed buildings, is located&nbsp;at St Leonards South’s highest point and the new development presents six-star levels of resort-style luxury, including amenities like a cinema, mineral pool, rooftop terrace, dining and games room, gym, hot spa and smart home technology.

Construction is due to commence this year, with completion anticipated for Q1 2026.

Peter Pereira, New Hope Evergreen&nbsp;Development Director, said the buyers were local downsizers who chose St Leonards after an extensive search for a penthouse that met their exacting demands for size, finish quality, location, and view.&nbsp;

"Both were further attracted by each development’s separate private parking garage, soon to become home to their respective prestigious car collections," Pereira said.

New Hope Group have invested $1.4 billion in Sydney's Lower North Shore, with most of that concentrated in St Leonards.

Many of the apartments in Landmark Quarter benefit from city and harbour views, which can be taken in from either the balcony or living area, given all apartments have floor-to-ceiling glass doors to the balcony.

The townhouses have three bedrooms, each with their own private entrance.

New Hope Evergreen secure three penthouse sales across St Leonards

There's nothing like a boost of confidence in a project when the penthouse sells.

It tells other prospective buyers someone is so confident in what's being developed that they're wanting to buy the most expensive apartment in the building.

Melbourne developer Salter Brothers has sold all of the penthouses crowning their new <a href="/developments/ivanhoe-vic-3079">Ivanhoe apartment development</a>, Candela.

<a href="/new-apartments/candela-ivanhoe-40-upper-heidelberg-road-ivanhoe">Candela</a> has proven popular with a range of buyers, given it's diverse mix of apartment configurations and price points. It offers loft-style, one-bedroom apartments, right through to the now spoken for penthouses.

The spacious floor plans are designed to accommodate young families, multi-generational living, downsizers, and couples seeking a lock-up-and-leave lifestyle with ample space for guests.

Confidence nod at Candela Ivanhoe as penthouses snapped up

The penthouse offering atop Main Beach’s luxury ARI residential tower was unveiled this week.

The two-level design boasts a private rooftop terrace with a pool, spa and barbecue facilities, for the exclusive use of the penthouse owner, along with space to lounge in the open air.

Set on levels 18 and 19, the penthouse and rooftop expose 360-degree views spanning the Pacific Ocean, the city skyline, the Broadwater, and the <a href="/new-apartments/gold-coast-qld">Gold Coast</a> hinterland.

The Melbourne-based Stamoulis Property Group is developing the project, which has been designed by Bayden Goddard's&nbsp;BGD Architects.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112163 project_image_fid=217022]

Kollosche's Michael Kollosche, who is selling <a href="/new-apartments/ari-3555-main-beach-parade-main-beach">ARI</a> with Harry Kakavas, said there are few comparable penthouses on the Gold Coast market.

“We’re expecting strong interest from buyers who want the best of location, lifestyle and luxury in one package,” Kollosche says.

“To acquire a penthouse in a luxury boutique residential building, with its own private rooftop, on a triple block with 30-metre beach frontage truly is a rare opportunity.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112163 project_image_fid=217021]

Priced at $19.75 million, the sprawling penthouse suite spans 759 sqm in total, 436 sqm of internal living space and a further 296 sqm of outdoor living.

There are three living areas and a dining area, a gourmet kitchen plus a scullery, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, a separate study, a powder room, and five car spaces.

The penthouse has soaring 4.5-metre ceilings and full-height glass windows which curve around the open plan main living and dining area, taking&nbsp;full advantage of views to South Stradbroke Island and south to <a href="/new-apartments/coolangatta-qld-4225">Coolangatta</a>.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112163 project_image_fid=217019]

The residents-only tower comprises 26 half-floor residences and three full-floor sky homes. Half-floor apartments with three bedrooms start from 288 sqm and range in size to 325 sqm, while full-floor apartments with four bedrooms range in size from 567 sqm to 618 sqm.

Kollosche said that current demand had seen a number of half-floor residences amalgamated.

<a href="/new-apartments/ari-3555-main-beach-parade-main-beach">ARI</a> residents will enjoy exclusive access to resort-class amenities including a heated 25-metre lap pool, a gym, steam room, sauna, cold plunge pool, residents lounge and business centre.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112163 project_image_fid=216350]

More than half of the available apartments in ARI have sold since the project launched in May.

Kollosche said buyers have responded to the absolute beachfront location, the architectural design, the high standard of finish, and uninterrupted ocean view lines.

“Brand new apartments on the absolute beachfront are few in <a href="/developments/main-beach-qld-4217">Main Beach</a> and redevelopment options are even fewer,” Kollosche says.

“The <a href="/developments/main-beach-qld-4217">Main Beach lifestyle</a> is a major drawcard for owner-occupiers with the beach and the Tedder Avenue village centre all on the doorstep.

“Nearby Marina Mirage and The Spit precinct are earmarked for major redevelopment in coming years which only adds to the value of any investment in Main Beach.”

ARI apartments are priced from $5.9 million.
