Melbourne developer <a href="/developers/prime-edition">Prime Edition</a> has launched its latest residential development <a href="/new-apartments/como-toorak-2-bruce-street-toorak">Como Toorak</a>, a collaborative effort between <a href="/developers/prime-edition">Prime Edition</a> and architectural practice <a href="/architects/jolson">Jolson</a>.

The Melbourne-based developer secured the high-profile 2500 sqm site at <a href="/new-apartments/como-toorak-2-bruce-street-toorak">2 Bruce St</a>, an amalgamation of multiple blocks, from AFR Rich Lister Larry Kestleman for a record $26 million in 2022.

This $120 million project will comprise only 17 apartments, including penthouses, immersed in garden foliage and terrace planters designed by Paul Bangay.

The building's facade features vertical landscaping that softens the architecture and seamlessly blends it with the surroundings. At ground level, meticulously manicured shrubs and a mature tree with blossoming branches will add colour against the neutral tones of the structure.

Beneath the greenery, the building's crafted facade stands out with considered articulation, depth, and textures. Jolson prioritised architectural strength and an authentic character, incorporating premium materials such as handcrafted Spanish bricks, textured render, and column pieces integrated with deep, recessive balconies and garden beds.

“The building’s detail meanders between chiselled forms and curved edges from the exterior to the interior, creating a holistic design language and a distinct design identity,” <a href="/architects/jolson">Jolson</a> Director Mat Wright said.

<img alt="COMO Toorak" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="15aad99e-820c-4fc2-a3a1-cb2265de4d3d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-27%20at%201.09.53%20pm.png?VersionId=2sLdjoEXBotrlDRFciJ3cowO6lbo6Btk" />

Como's entrance features large, artisanally made steel gates leading to an arrival lobby where a daytime concierge provides a hotel-like experience for residents and visitors.

Drawing on Jolson's architectural expertise in large-scale private homes, each of the 17 residences has been meticulously considered in every detail, incorporating a palette of natural materials, built-in joinery, custom-designed elements, and a rare generosity of space.

The interplay between gently sculpted contours and the precision of chiselled lines on the facade extends into Como's expansive corridors and living areas.

Expansive glazing maximises views, sunlight, and connections with nature, emphasising a sense of openness. Luxurious and long-wearing surfaces characterise each space, from oak floorboards to polished plastered walls, plush carpeting, natural stone, and textured porcelain tiles.

“The interiors emphasise using texture and form to create an enduring design response. We wanted each space to feel generous and crafted, considered and well planned. Everything should feel calm and imbued with a sense of identity,” <a href="/architects/jolson">Jolson</a> Associate Jaclyn Lee said.

<img alt="Como" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="7265594e-fe84-471c-958b-77b866cc903a" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-27%20at%201.10.24%20pm.png?VersionId=50yD8mpy2C5X7cNMHuQkGgEyV4291.mS" />

The penthouses, combining the aesthetic principles of the lower residences with the benefits of an elevated position, are wrapped in glass like a pavilion within a private garden terrace overlooking spectacular views across the grass courts of South Yarra Tennis Club and the city skyline.

Each penthouse is appointed with a large-scale kitchen surrounded by glazing for ample sunlight at the heart of the home. The kitchen features a concealed walk-in scullery and multiple dining and bar areas, complemented by stone benchtops and premium appliances.

Outside, the courtyard design aims to provide privacy and maximise natural light, with carefully selected greenery to emphasise texture, movement and softer elements—framed by carefully arranged paving and steppers.

Paul Bangay's landscape design captures the classic elegance of the area's ordered gardens and the vibrant character of <a href="/new-apartments/toorak-vic-3142">Toorak</a> today. The curved facades of Como are mirrored in rounded garden walls and paved areas, with textural foliage softening every space.

Prime Edition's $270 million pipeline of high-end residential projects, set to launch before the end of 2024, includes three other projects, another in <a href="/new-apartments/toorak-vic-3142">Toorak</a>, one in <a href="/new-apartments/south-yarra-vic-3141">South Yarra</a>, and another in <a href="/new-apartments/clifton-hill-vic-3068">Clifton Hill</a>.

Como is slated for completion in 2025.

Melbourne-based property developer Ninety Four Feet has unveiled its project Lakeview Te Taumata, a 10-hectare lakeside suburb set to redefine luxury living in the heart of Queenstown.

Situated near the iconic Skyline Gondola, the collaboration with ASX-listed Centuria Capital Group and visionary pioneers from the Britomart precinct in Auckland will transform a former campground on Lake Wakatipu into a vibrant, world-class community over the next decade.

The multi-billion-dollar precinct will encompass diverse offerings, including residential apartments, a co-living building, three hotels, a co-working centre, health and wellness facilities, curated retail spaces, an art gallery and a significant food and beverage offering. The proposed addition of thermal pools, pending approval, will add an exciting dimension to the project.

Architectural renders reveal stone-wrapped shops and restaurants at ground level, complemented by one co-living building and four residential tower blocks, with the tallest reaching twelve stories high.

Over half of the precinct will be dedicated to open public spaces and walkways, fostering a sense of community.

Ninety Four Feet Development Manager Charmaine Balchin stated the project will officially launch in early 2024, with New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty inviting high net worth clients from their database to register their interest now.

“Despite global challenges, the Queenstown Lakes District Council has shown remarkable dedication to bringing this ambitious project to fruition,"&nbsp;Balchin said.

“It’s really inspiring to see the precinct forming and we’re excited to bring this community alive with our layers. We anticipate startingconstruction of the first stage coming out of winter 2024."

UDIA Award-winning developer Otello is bringing something different to Adelaide's growing inner-west area.

They've just launched Treno, a modern apartment and townhouse development in Mile End. The project will comprise&nbsp;31 apartments and townhouses on the western side of the CBD, across the road from Mile End Train Station and the picturesque 35-hectare Ellis Park.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142023 project_image_fid=239075]

Polly Property's James Polacek, who is marketing Treno, says the project's location means it's a rare offering for two reasons.

"The prime location of Treno on Railway Terrace means future residents can't get closer to the park," Polacek says, adding while that alone is a unique selling point, it also adds another string to the bow of the project.

"Due of the proximity to the park and the train station, views encompassing the whole city aren't ever likely to be built out to the east because they're protected, while the zoning to the north and west now doesn't allow for anything to be developed higher than Treno, which means it's unlikely there will ever be anything blocking out those district views."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142023 project_image_fid=239073]

Polacek is speaking to a lot of downsizers for the project, given it's weighted toward three-bedroom units.&nbsp;

The location is one of the biggest drivers to the project, Pollacek says. The proximity to the train station is suiting those wanting to connect with , while the proximity to Gladys Elphick Park is attracting the active downsizer.

The apartments have been designed by Studio Nine Architects to offer buyers a variety of floorplans. There are three different floorplan configurations for the three-bedroom apartments and three for the penthouses.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142023 project_image_fid=239075]

The townhouses too have three bedrooms, as well as multiple living areas and balconies which provide direct views of the parkland and the city.

GurnerTM's $1 billion game-changing precinct in Adelaide will also be the first building on the other side of the park, around a kilometre away. That will bring significant hospitality to Adelaide.

There's a number of infrastructure changes coming to Mile End, such as the new state funded women's and children's hospital and some supporting medial industries, which&nbsp;Polacek says will drive a lot of growth in the inner west.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142023 project_image_fid=239103]

Otello, who has previously developed five modern townhouse developments across Adelaide previously, is joint venture partnering with the builder, so they're invested in the build process of Treno too, which makes for a more cost effective build and accurate construction timeline.

Apartments at Treno start from $629,000. The project is slated for completion in early 2025.

Developer <a href="/developers/landmark-group">Landmark</a> has unveiled its newest apartment development, <a href="/new-apartments/the-macquarie-collection-5-halifax-street-macquarie-park">The Macquarie Collection in Macquarie Park</a>, a suburb is undergoing a full transformation led by some of the state's largest developers.

<a href="/developers/landmark-group">Landmark</a>, who have previously developed the 1300-apartment Lachlan's Line in <a href="/new-apartments/macquarie-park-nsw-2113">Macquarie Park</a>, have launched the first building of three buildings at <a href="/new-apartments/the-macquarie-collection-5-halifax-street-macquarie-park">5 Halifax Street</a>, near the North Ryde Metro Station.

It's the highest density tower of the three by a considerable margin, with 256 apartments across 28 levels. The other two towers are just six levels, with 28 and 16 apartments in each.

AJC Architects designed the buildings to foster a welcoming sense of community where generous communal space across the buildings blends indoor and outdoor life.

<img alt="Macquarie Park" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c6f29ea4-8b63-42a8-ac88-d00f24dfc035" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-21%20at%201.05.04%20pm.png?VersionId=vW35f0W5qn4UkIj.6tGqetTu_7B0drHm" />

On the sunny northeast corner, beautifully landscaped open space is the residents' own ‘urban backyard’, while the rooftops will take in panoramic views which set the scene for weekend barbecue lunches through Sydney’s long summers.&nbsp;

The beauty of the surroundings also extends to the indoors. Residents will come home to a space that’s light-filled and welcoming.

Each apartment has an understated interior palette in soft natural hues and was carefully planned to deliver a generous flow of indoor-outdoor living through large windows and balconies.&nbsp;

<img alt="The MAcquarie Collection" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="db9ff8e7-b51f-4057-958b-ecda0ebdea10" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-21%20at%2012.46.27%20pm_0.png?VersionId=x0WiCmSFCDBC36TjP1NXTZm4wje8jmAu" />

The climate-controlled apartments are designed to escape the Macquarie Park buzz, perfectly oriented to draw in breezes, sunlight and views.

Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the streetscape and city views outside, while spacious balconies form natural extensions of the living areas.

Open-plan kitchens and eat-in islands invite people to gather, with timeless finishes blending into the living and dining areas.&nbsp;

<img alt="Macquarie Collective" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3f717a1e-afac-418f-bc6d-ed579a9f5f26" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-21%20at%2012.46.31%20pm.png?VersionId=Gs3YsQiJbVXwaRIHiK23PCl_2ofV5zrP" />

Bedrooms, bathrooms and ensuites are elegant and beautifully appointed with robust, high-quality, low-maintenance finishes with abundant essential storage throughout the spaces.

Landmark Group Director of Sales and Acquisitions Mark Meyer says Macquarie Park is a growing location.

"It's a great precinct, a very exciting corridor for growth," Meyer says.

So far there's been a real mix of demographics showing interest in The Macquarie Collection. Even some investors are starting to creep back into the market.

Macquarie Park is undergoing a huge transformation. Recently Urban Property Group launched La Vera, their first project in Macquarie Park, while TOGA also launched Macquarie Rise.

Landmark have an extensive workbook across the whole of Greater Sydney, from Dee Why in the north, to Caringbah in the south, and Blacktown in the west.

Meyer says as long the suburb has the key fundamentals of amenity and transport, then there's no reason to be dedicated to develop in one area.&nbsp;

"We're not working in new suburbs," Meyer says.

"These are established suburbs with all of the infrastructure already in place. It takes out the guess work of whether growth can occur in a suburb or not. As long as there's the fundamentals buyers look for, then growth comes hand in hand."

Developed in collaboration with Cottee Parker, <a href="/new-apartments/keynote-residences-beecroft-5-wongala-crescent-beecroft">Keynote Residences</a> presents 34 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments and two large four-bedroom penthouses. The penthouse grants exclusive access to 80 sqm of balcony space.

The <a href="/new-apartments/keynote-residences-beecroft-5-wongala-crescent-beecroft">five-level building</a> will fit right into the Beecroft High Street with its versatile retail space at the ground level, and its use of colour and materials that resonate with the suburban environment.

"The building and the interiors address the materiality of the suburbs, so we've used brick that's common to the area," Cottee Parker Principal Designer Angelo Di Marco said.

"The materials are earthy and autumnal in tone. They're sort of materials that we're familiar with, so it feels very natural environment that blends in with the surrounding area."

<img alt="Beecroft" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="b6feb093-f777-4b8e-a647-a6e3ea10878c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-21%20at%2011.17.13%20am.png?VersionId=2JYBSMcOf5_TEc4ONwIxT46O3IJjqoiE" />

Each apartment is designed with a focus on modern elegance yet welcoming atmosphere. Engineered European oak timber floors add warmth, while panelled feature walls contribute a unique textural element. Some residences feature Australian-designed and handcrafted Ceto feature lights in kitchens and bathrooms for a bespoke touch.

Generous, stylish living areas create the perfect environment for entertaining, flowing to spacious alfresco areas set against a backdrop of sweeping views.

"We've really focused on the indoor and outdoor living spaces. I think the most significant thing about Keynote is the ability to flow from inside to outside on your terrace into having these district views, feeling part of the treetops, feeling part of the village below," Di Marco added.

<img alt="Beecroft" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="0ea646f1-0202-4cfa-8566-cee3533b1a24" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-21%20at%2011.17.08%20am.png?VersionId=1U04sv7GptAi3s7HdyR7cJOyqQoayLz_" />

Kitchens boast a curved island made from timber veneer, topped with engineered stone and detailed joinery, creating a functional and aesthetically pleasing space.

Bedrooms have been designed as calming havens appointed with Acacia Hill carpet. Several master suites open to the alfresco areas for an airy indoor-outdoor flow, with large sliding glass doors drawing light into the spaces.

A number of the master suites enjoy the privilege of a custom-designed walk-in dressing area and wardrobe lit by LED lights to store and display famous designer pieces.

In the bathrooms, larger tiles add sophistication, complemented by heated towel rails for a touch of luxury and warmth.

Select units feature versatile piano rooms, catering to music enthusiasts or as flexible multi-purpose spaces.

Keynote is located next to the retail hub of <a href="/new-apartments/beecroft-nsw-2119">Beecroft</a> Place and directly opposite the <a href="/new-apartments/beecroft-nsw-2119">Beecroft</a> train station.

The newest Caulfield South apartment development, Broadway, is set to bring a little something for everyone.

The boutique development comprises just 12 one, two and three-bedroom apartments, which are expected to suit every demographic from first home buyer to rightsizer or downsizer.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142367 project_image_fid=234262]

Architecture firm Innovation One Design Group have sought to blend&nbsp;modern, Edwardian, and Victorian architecture, which is evident in Broadway's unique form and refined colour palette.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Designed asymmetrically, the upper-level apartments float weightlessly above the second-level apartments, which are concealed by a row of panels for optimal privacy and to create a podium-like effect.&nbsp;

Broadway's asymmetrical form utilised a monochromatic palette and grey concrete accentuated by black steel and soaring windows to add visual interest.

At Broadway, an inviting lobby area affords residents their first warm welcome home.

Interiors have been planned to allow a flood of natural light and are adorned in a palette of texturally rich finishes.

Appointed with full-height windows and a seamless connection to balconies, living spaces in the apartments are light-filled and optimised for ventilation.

The spacious balconies are the perfect venue for residents to admire the verdant treetops and views over the streetscape as they cook barbecues with friends or enjoy a solo wine at sunset.

At the centre of every Broadway kitchen is an island bench adorned by a striking grey stone benchtop, complemented by full Miele kitchen appliances and integrated double-door fridges.

The bathrooms are set up high for privacy but feature a vast window allowing ample natural light. All bathrooms are well-appointed by greystone countertops with integrated storage and timber joinery, and the master suite has a large-sized bathtub.

Located at 630-632 Glen Huntley Road, Broadway is surrounded by various cuisine and retail options and is only 20 minutes from the CBD.

Broadway is currently under construction, and is estimated to be completed in July 2024.

From first home buyer to downsizer: Why Caulfield South's newest apartment development will suit every buyer

Developer Freeman Group is set to introduce a boutique collection of inner-city apartments in the heart of Melbourne’s lifestyle and sporting precinct.

The Lara Architect-designed <a href="/new-apartments/bridge-palmer-richmond-609-bridge-road-richmond">Bridge + Palmer</a> will comprise just 12 apartments across a contemporary seven-level building in <a href="/new-apartments/richmond-vic-3121">Richmond</a>, above the Bridge Road streetscape near where the Yarra River splits <a href="/new-apartments/richmond-vic-3121">Richmond</a> and Hawthorn.

The introduction of warm timber finishes on the canopied ground level softens what is instead a raw, red-brick-heavy facade—a nod to Richmond's industrial history and surrounding brick warehouses and buildings.

Architecture firm LARA Architects says the character of Richmond is "diverse but groovy, chaotic and unexpected."

"That is the motto of our design," the Carlos Lara-ran practice noted.

"Embracing the diversity and character of its location, <a href="/new-apartments/bridge-palmer-richmond-609-bridge-road-richmond">Bridge + Palmer</a> is a welcome addition to the eastern end of Bridge Road."

They said the project manages to settle seamlessly in its location, with&nbsp;materials that speak of its contemporaneity as well as its role as a landmark for future developments.

"The introduction of timber finishes softens its presence and welcomes residents and visitors alike. A ground floor retail space ensures activation. A canopy conceived as book match to the ground floor elevation, and the ground floor facade finishes provide consistency and clean lines for a consolidated design approach, contributing to the streetscape at ground level.

"The upper levels are finished in a combination of red bricks that speak of the site's industrial history, in a nod to the surrounding brick warehouses and buildings that form the fabric of Richmond. The building is set back at the sixth storey, where a communal room and outdoor space provide residents with an entertainment area all year round, with city views on top of one of Melbourne's busiest streets."

Inspired by the rich historical tapestry of <a href="/new-apartments/richmond-vic-3121">Richmond</a>, <a href="/new-apartments/bridge-palmer-richmond-609-bridge-road-richmond">Bridge + Palmer’s</a> interior stylings merge heritage and modern luxe with a chic palette of materials that appropriately reflect its lively locale.

"Our interior design scheme is lively and warm, which reflects this character-filled neighbourhood," Katrina Hooker of KHID Interior Design said.

A consistent muted green palette and wooden material are a focal point for every space in the home.

The open living, dining, and kitchen area lends the active spaces of the home spacious and easily extendable to the outdoors via the north-facing balcony overlooking Palmer Street’s treetop views.

<a href="/new-apartments/bridge-palmer-richmond-609-bridge-road-richmond">Bridge + Palmer</a> is just 13 minutes from the CBD, and only eight-minutes from Australia’s greatest sporting events at Melbourne Park, AAMI Park, and Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Freeman Group reveal Bridge + Palmer, Richmond apartment development

Devlink Group's UNIQ townhouses will be a welcome addition to Bundall and are set to benefit from the $370 million redevelopment of the Gold Coast Turf Club just across the Nerang River.

The 22 architecturally-designed townhouses, which present a rare opportunity to buy brand new in the suburb more well known for large family homes, will each front the river and have three bedrooms and a self-contained multi-purpose room. They start from $1,395,000.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114207 project_image_fid=233793]

The duplexes have been future-proofed, each with private lifts.

The spacious living areas, which flow from the contemporary kitchens anchored by a large island bench, are connected to the balconies through UNIQ's distinct archway design.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114207 project_image_fid=233791]

Master bedrooms are generously sized, featuring oversized headboards and carpeted flooring.

The master ensuites convey a sense of openness with frameless shower walls and arched glass partitions connecting to the master bedroom. The bathrooms also feature his and her vanity.

There are rooftop terraces which take in views over the Nerang River, the Southport Race Course, and the Gold Coast city skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114207 project_image_fid=233795]

The waterfront properties will also feature private plunge pools, while the broader development will have access to a communal swimming pool and barbecue facilities.

Devlink expecting to commence construction later this year.

Devlink Group Head of Marketing, James Ball, said the project is an opportunity to deliver an incredible addition to the area at a time when the Sunlight Lifestyle Precinct is set to transform Bundall into one of the most in-demand locations on the entire&nbsp;<a href="/developments/gold-coast-qld">Gold Coast</a>.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114207 project_image_fid=233796]

“Our focus as a business has been developing and delivering boutique townhouse projects in some of the Gold Coast’s most desirable locations just as interest in the area escalates – something we experienced with our Kirra VIII project and now appear to have done again with UNIQ,” Ball said.

“Given the fast-growing population of the&nbsp;<a href="/developments/gold-coast-qld">Gold Coast</a>&nbsp;and the lack of land availability buyers are choosing this type of product as it gives them the opportunity to live in a location that allows for a great lifestyle while providing them the living space, they want with minimal upkeep required. What makes it even more thrilling for us is the fact that our project is situated in a prime area, granting access to two prominent entertainment hubs—the Sunlight Lifestyle Precinct and Home of The Arts (HOTA), while still being only five to 10 minutes’ from the beach.”
