It can be a long and arduous journey for developers after they submit a development application to local councils.

They each have different criteria and move at different speeds.

Sometimes however, they can all come at once. That's certainly been the case for Tim Campbell and Stuart Kacir's Carpe Group, which has had two developments approved in the last few weeks.

Carpe, who develop for downsizers right across Melbourne, has secured approval for two projects in the Bayside suburbs of Hampton and Sandringham, and hope to secure one in Kew where they're currently developing The Walton.

Read more:&nbsp;<a href="/news/vic/how-a-property-market-shift-triggered-the-founding-of-carpe-group">How a property market shift triggered the founding of Carpe Group</a>

In Sandringham, Carpe secured eight townhouses across two blocks which will make way for <a href="/new-apartments/the-coterie-sandringham-49-51-abbott-street-sandringham">The Coterie</a>, a Warren &amp; Mahoney-designed building of 25 apartments.

They will be a mix of 11 generously sized two-beds, starting from 100 sqm, and 14 three-bed apartments which get as large as 190 sqm internally. The penthouses will have large rooftop terraces with the option to add a spa. Every apartment will have interiors by Lisa Buxton.

The project sits in a cracking spot at <a href="/new-apartments/the-coterie-sandringham-49-51-abbott-street-sandringham">49-51 Abbott Street</a>, toward the western end of the street near Sandringham Station, the surrounding retail amenity, and Sandringham Beach.

Carpe's other Bayside project, in <a href="/developments/hampton-vic-3188">Hampton</a>, is another that's all about the location. Strategically located one street back from the vibrant Hampton Street with all the retail, hospitality and Hampton Station. Carpe will launch 18 apartments at 8-10 Ocean Street, designed by Martin Friedrich Architects who will also handlethe interiors.

That building, with five two-beds from 113 sqm and 13 three-bed apartments, will replace an old house, which has already been demolished, and two side by side townhouses.&nbsp;

Image supplied

Carpe will be developing Ocean Street alongside joint venture partner Icon Kajima. They're forecasting a spring launch after they complete their display suite on Hampton Street.

Carpe is hoping to get another project to get approved in Kew, where they're approaching completion on the nearly sold-out The Walton. They've grabbed a 3,709 sqm site at 85 Studley Park Road, near Studley Park, where they're planning 31 apartments.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149271]

Campbell says that while it takes more time than ever to put together a good site in a good location, it's always time well spent.&nbsp;

"Both the Bayside projects are a short walk to train stations, without being right on top of them, and with the train stations come the activity centres of the suburbs. All the shopping needs are within a walk, and with Bayside, you've also got the beach and park reserves."

Campbell says Kew presents a different opportunity compared to the Bayside.

Stuart Kacir says you can't have all of the above in Kew, so you offer something different depending on where you're developing.

"With The Walton, residents will be closer to the centre of Kew, while the new project is more geared toward being a short walk to Studley Park, with the convenience of numerous bus stops on Studley Park Road. The centre of Kew and the shops are still only a kilometre away."

Studley Park will be the last domino to fall, with a launch expected later in 2024 after Carpe complete the display suite on High Street.

Carpe Group secure green light for two Melbourne apartment developments

In the first four months of 2024, Lower North Shore developer WINIM has launched three new residential projects across their favoured Sydney region.

Following launches of apartments in <a href="/developments/mosman-nsw-2088">Mosman</a> and <a href="/developments/cremorne-nsw-2090">Cremorne</a>, <a href="/developers/winim">WINIM</a> has launched <a href="/new-townhouses/lume-gordon-43-47-dumaresq-street-gordon">Lume Gordon</a>, 14 townhouses ideally located just off Gordon's main retail strip and near&nbsp;<a href="/developments/gordon-nsw-2072">Gordon</a>&nbsp;Station.

They had their go-to architect <a href="/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> create the house-sized townhomes that offer three, four or five-bedroom configurations.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7354 project_image_fid=269522]

Lume's architecture is characterised by traditional brick and timber expression. Integral to the design is a smooth, effortless transition from the interiors to the alfresco spaces.

&nbsp;

"Our vision was to create elegant, uplifting homes that draw on and positively contribute to the local character through meticulously considered design and an interaction with the surroundings," Gary Tsui of Rothelowman said.

The townhomes feature fireplaces, bespoke cabinetry, wine storage, and expansive alfresco entertaining terraces with a custom-created outdoor kitchen featuring an in-built barbeque and bench seating.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7354 project_image_fid=269527]

Homeowners at Lume have the option to choose from two interior colour schemes. Amaroo reflects hues of the bushland, dappled light and pale gum trees, while Gully is inspired by stronger and deeper tones of the forest.

&nbsp;

In addition to the individual home amenities, residents of Lume also have access to a landscaped communal outdoor BBQ area, creating opportunities for social gatherings and community interactions.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7354 project_image_fid=269521]

The development is designed to integrate with its natural surroundings, with a pathway connecting the residences to a natural creek bed and a raised boardwalk with seating areas.

"The private reserve adjoining Lume’s homes provided us with the rare opportunity to create a very special place for residents. Just as waterways carve their way through Kur-Ring-Gai’s landscape, a raised boardwalk weaves through the reserve, connecting the homes to this tranquil oasis," Ben Newell &amp; Kate Phillips of <a href="/landscape-architect/arcadia-landscape-architecture">Arcadia</a> Said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7354 project_image_fid=269529]

For those who prefer working outdoors, charging stations in the communal area enable a change of scenery while staying connected. This feature aligns with modern lifestyle preferences, offering flexibility and convenience to homeowners.

Lume's proximity to Gordon Village, train station, and shopping precinct, only 300 metres away, provides residents with convenient access to local amenities and services.

Residents can also explore the nearby St Johns Avenue multicultural culinary eat street, adding a diverse range of dining options to their lifestyle.

WINIM kicked off 2024 by launching <a href="/news/nsw/winim-reveal-huntington-residences-cremorne-luxury-apartment-development">Huntington Residences in Cremorne</a> in late January, before <a href="/news/nsw/winim-launch-second-apartment-development-in-2024-as-kl-o-mosman-hits-the-market">then revealing Kleo Mosman</a>.

Builder developer PERIFA has launched one of the only new apartment developments in Kingsford in Sydney's tight Eastern Suburbs off the plan apartment market.

<a href="/buildings/botanica-kingsford">Botanica</a>, which is currently under construction by PERIFA's building arm <a href="/builders/versatile">Versatile</a>, comprises 58 studio, one, and two-bedroom apartments catering to young professionals, families, and investors looking for an affordable address <a href="/new-apartments/kingsford-nsw-2032">in an area</a> which has a vacancy rate of around one per cent.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143113 project_image_fid=265531]

The studio starts at $580,000, while one-bed apartments are priced at $725,000 through <a href="/project-marketer/laver-residential-projects">Laver Residential Projects</a>. The average size for one-bedroom units at Botanica ranges from 40 to 45 sqm internally, with most apartments also featuring private balconies.

Designed by <a href="/architects/studio-johnston">Studio Johnson Architects</a>, Botanica features a cross-flow design that maximises natural light and ventilation. Most units also offer a northern aspect, with some offering views of the CBD.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143113 project_image_fid=245908]

Residents will also have access to communal amenities such as the garden and barbeque area for leisure and social gatherings.

Botanica's walking proximity to public transport, with the added convenience of the nearby UNSW campus and Prince of Wales Hospital just five minutes away, further adds to its appeal.

Botanica Kingsford is slated for completion in June 2024.

Last year we caught up with <a href="/developers/perifa">PERIFA</a> Founder Fabrizio Perilli to talk about the Sydney off the plan apartment market.

The forever busy Gold Coast apartment developer, Marquee Development Partners, has secured a sellout of its luxury Kirra project Monterey, and in the same breathe they've launched another.

<a href="/new-apartments/monterey-kirra-beach-4-6-musgrave-street-coolangatta-qld-4225">Monterey</a>, at 4-6 Musgrave Street, the dress circle address offering gun-barrel views over the beach, is Marquee's 10th development on the <a href="/new-apartments/gold-coast-qld">Gold Coast</a>, which will be closely followed by the recently launched <a href="/new-apartments/la-belle-palm-beach-332-the-esplanade-palm-beach">La Belle</a>.

Monterey garnered significant interest from a diverse pool of buyers, including local, interstate, and international individuals due to its prime location and unique offering, a chance to buy a primary residence, holiday retreat, or investment property on one of the last beachfront sites in <a href="/new-apartments/kirra-beach-qld-4225">Kirra</a>.

The project offered 35 three and four-bedroom apartments across its 14 levels and 45 metres of north-facing beach frontage, creating almost unrepeatable views north and south from&nbsp;Snapper Rocks and the Kirra Headland to the <a href="/new-apartments/surfers-paradise-qld-4217">Surfers Paradise</a> skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112210 project_image_fid=198839]

Monterey was designed by the <a href="/new-apartments/brisbane-qld">Brisbane</a>-based <a href="/architects/ellivo-architects">Ellivo Architects</a> to replace an ageing apartment block of 15 which has been on the 1,163 sqm site for over five decades.

As with every Marquee community, residents will have exclusive access to a curated selection of resort-style amenities, with Monterey taking inspiration from Mykonos and the Greek Islands.

The ground floor of Monterey will feature a heated swimming pool oasis accompanied by poolside cabanas, an outdoor spa, and a European-style sauna, as well as an outdoor beach shower and surfboard wash station. A gym with a yoga lawn, and a resident bar with a billiards lounge, will sit on the floor above.

Construction is well advanced at Monterey, which is expected to complete later this year.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112210 project_image_fid=198833]

<a href="/developers/marquee">Marquee</a> has just launched its latest project in Palm Beach. La Belle, 74 three, four, and five-bedroom apartments, also with ultra-wide aspects and sweeping north and south views.

Each apartment features sliding doors connecting the living and kitchen areas to indoor-outdoor living spaces.

The kitchens are equipped with top-of-the-range Gaggenau appliances and feature walk-in butler's pantries, as well as dry bars between the kitchen and dining areas.

Residents of La Belle will also have access to two levels of amenities including an outdoor heated pool and spa and a wellness centre with a gym offering pilates and barre/yoga, stretching rooms, a Nordic Sauna, an indoor hot spa, and cold plunges. There will be multiple teppanyaki dining bars, as well as, like Monterey, a residents lounge with a billiards room.

Property developer Omira Property Group has carved out a reputation as one of the most architecturally-focused villa developers in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales and the southern areas of the Gold Coast.

Now they're bringing their classic coastal-style to Ballina, following success in the likes of Byron Bay, Currumbin and Kingscliff.

They've brought the same team down from their most recently completed development, Asana, on Byron Bay's dress circle Marvell Street. Asana comprised just three luxury villas which sold with prices ranging from $4.4 million to $4.6 million.

The new <a href="/new-townhouses/ballina-nsw-2478">Ballina</a> project, <a href="/new-townhouses/mana-ballina-86-90-norton-street-ballina">Mana</a>, comprises 14 luxury villas, each with over 220 sqm of internal space. They start from $1.95 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144558 project_image_fid=264603]

<a href="/developers/omira-property-group">Omira Property Group</a> Director Alasdair Baker says the villas will represent an opportunity for prospective purchasers to live in something Ballina hasn't seen before.

"Ballina has everything Byron Bay has and more at half the price tag," Baker says, calling the area a "sleeping giant of opportunity that's just about to wake up."

"The focus in this region has always been on Byron Bay, but when people travel north or south, they realise the same lifestyle opportunities, with multiple beachside precincts, exist up and down the coastline."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144558 project_image_fid=264608]

<a href="/architects/c2-architecture">C2 Architecture</a>, whose concept embodies an iconic coastal aesthetic with architecture inspired by Palm Springs, is working with designer Mon Palmer of Bare Cabo design studio who has developed an interior scheme that emanates calm.

Marble features predominantly throughout the three-bedroom villas, with stone cladding, timber-look panels and white render on the exterior to create a cool coastal effect.

Hit-and-miss brickwork serves to protect the home from the heat while welcoming summer breezes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144558 project_image_fid=264613]

Baker says the project will suit the local downsizer market, those who have been on acreages in the region, as well as those from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane who are looking for the Byron Bay-style lifestyle.

Baker says a project of this calibre needs to have a location to match, which is why they settled on a prime site on Norton Street,&nbsp;a literal stone's throw from&nbsp; North Creek and just over a kilometre to Ballina Fair Shopping Centre.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144558 project_image_fid=261478]

Pacifico Property, who sold Omira's Asana <a href="/new-townhouses/byron-bay-nsw-2481">Byron Bay</a>, is marketing Mana, which is slated for completion in 2025.

One of the villas has already been snapped up pre-launch for $2.4 million, bought by a downsizer from Byron Bay.

Floor-to-ceiling glass windows and doors provide connection to the outdoors, whether it be a balcony or a garden courtyard. The one and two-bedroom apartments have one parking space, while the three-bedroom apartments have two.

The Residences will also have on-site amenities available, including a private pet-friendly "Green Spine" with exercise and relaxation zones, a BBQ pavilion, a dog wash bay, and a lounge equipped with a large boardroom-style table and kitchenette, ideal for remote work or social gatherings.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135247 project_image_fid=262186]

The location of The Residences on Fox Valley Road puts future residents near the vibrant villages of both <a href="/new-apartments/wahroonga-nsw-2076">Wahroonga</a> and <a href="/new-apartments/turramurra-nsw-2074">Turramurra</a>, in the heart of some of the best educational institutes in Sydney and&nbsp;and 100m to the renowned San Hospital.

Wahroonga welcomes rare new apartment development as The Residences approaches launch

Brisbane's riverfront is arguably the most sought-after spot for anyone to live.

The likes of <a href="/developments/kangaroo-point-qld-4169">Kangaroo Point</a>, <a href="/developments/new-farm-qld-4005">New Farm</a> and <a href="/developments/hawthorne-qld-4171">Hawthorne</a> always have their suburb records set on the river. It's been a regular occurrence over the last decade that one of those suburbs has taken out the most expensive house sale in Brisbane.

Seldom does the opportunity arise for a true riverfront apartment development, given the cost of the land and the difficulty of prying a large enough site out of the hands of an owner who will know opportunities to buy back onto the riverfront will be few and far between.

The property developing Zullo family, who run luxury apartment developer <a href="/developers/bellevue-queensland">Bellevue Queensland</a>, bought their slice of riverfront on Byron Street in <a href="/developments/bulimba-qld-4171">Bulimba</a>, buying an old walk-up on 1,454 sqm in early 2022.

Two years after securing the site, they've launched <a href="/new-apartments/apollo-bulimba-63-byron-street-bulimba">Apollo Bulimba</a>, a collection of just 12 apartments starting from $2.125 million, a price unrivalled for the riverfront position.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144437 project_image_fid=261631]

Apollo Bulimba has been designed by Esat Design who have focused on creating a subtropical lifestyle with a Mediterranean-inspired building and interiors, featuring white textured finishes and rich bronze and copper accents.

The interior palette features warm neutral tones with timber flooring, hand-picked Signorino stone benchtops, brushed metal tapware, and VZUG appliances integrated into the kitchens.

Offering 16 metres of Brisbane River frontage, the apartments will offer sweeping river and city skyline views. The sprawling penthouse will take in the best views, barring the rooftop which will be home to a communal swimming pool, pool deck, and a barbecue lounge for residents.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144437 project_image_fid=261640]

Rare opportunity to buy on the Brisbane River as Apollo Bulimba apartments launch

A rare opportunity in one of Sydneysiders' and&nbsp;Canberrans' favourite locations on the South Coast of New South Wales has presented itself with the recent launch of Kailani, a boutique collection of luxury apartments in Batemans Bay.

<a href="/developments/batemans-bay-nsw-2536">Batemans Bay</a>, around two hours from Canberra and three to four hours south of Sydney past Jervis Bay and Mollymook, is well known for its relaxed beach lifestyle, as well as its proximity to some of the state's best national parks and pristine waterways.

There are only five apartments left in the luxury development of 16 units which is being developed and built by the Bowral-based KELA Building Group. KELA is forecasting an early 2025 completion of the five-level development block on Beach Road, arguably one of the best sites in Batemans Bay with unobstructed views over the adjacent park, marina and the Bay. The site is just around the corner from the 27-hole Championship Catalina Golf Course, and just a short level walk to the town centre.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135129 project_image_fid=258271]

Designed by architect Nathan Judd of <a href="/architects/judd-studio">Judd Studio</a>, <a href="/new-apartments/kailani-batemans-bay-50-52-beach-road-batemans-bay">Kailani</a> was conceptualised with a focus on longevity and timeless design, ensuring that the building remains relevant and of high quality for decades to come.

"The brief [to Nathan Judd] was to make a building that was quality, that was going to be as relevant today as it is in 20 to 30 years – something that was timeless," KELA Building Group Director and Construction &amp; Project Manager, Simon Kearney, said.

The four three-bedroom apartments on offer have large internal areas ranging from 132 sqm to 147 sqm, as well as balconies looking out across the water.

The final spacious penthouse, which is seeking $2.75 million, has nearly 180 sqm of internal living space and has four bedrooms and bathrooms, two living areas, as well as the largest terrace in the building.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135129 project_image_fid=258273]

Taking inspiration from the natural beauty of the South Coast region, <a href="/interior-designers/archebiosis-architects">Archebiosis Interior Architects</a> has curated three calming natural colour palettes for prospective buyers to choose from.&nbsp;

The palettes highlight organic, natural textures and earth tones to withstand changing trends and provide a warm, peaceful home— continuing the concept of timelessness and longevity in the interiors.

All apartments at Kailani feature a prime northerly aspect with spacious living areas that extend to large balconies offering direct views of Batemans Bay, the foreshore, and the marina.

The kitchens are equipped with quality appliances, and each apartment has a large master suite boasting an ensuite with a double vanity and several with a freestanding bath. All apartments have ducted air conditioning, plus two dedicated undercover secure parking spaces and lock-up storage.

Only five apartments remain at&nbsp;<a href="/new-apartments/kailani-batemans-bay-50-52-beach-road-batemans-bay">Kailani</a>, which is well advanced in its construction.
