Leading Australian developer TOGA Group has released the final stage of residences at its iconic Surry Hills Village precinct.

The last three completed terraces, known as the Marriott Street Terraces, will likely sell between $3.7 million and $3.9 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=9302 project_image_fid=342101]

SJB Director Adam Haddow, a Surry Hills local who designed the terraces, says terrace housing&nbsp;is synonymous with inner-city living in Sydney.

"At Surry Hills Village, each terrace has been individually designed with its own identity, a playful street presence, and generous courtyards at its heart," Haddow said.

"These homes are made for entertaining, thoughtfully balancing privacy and abundant natural light, all while closely connected to the surrounding retail, restaurants, cafes, and everyday essentials that anchor the community at Surry Hills Village.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=9302 project_image_fid=342097]

Each three-bedroom, three-bathroom terrace comes with a prized car space, a rarity for terraces in the Surry Hills/Redfern area.

They span two levels and feature a&nbsp;landscaped courtyard garden, a separate alfresco terrace with built-in Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and a functional scullery to ensure maximum preparation space while keeping sleek aesthetics in mind.

Each terrace’s striking facade reflects the Surry Hills iconic streetscape and allows natural light to fill spacious living areas and an effortless transition between outdoor entertaining areas and oversized indoor areas.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=9302 project_image_fid=342093]

The terraces are close to one of Sydney’s most sought-after new dining and shopping precincts, Wunderlich Lane with the hottest restaurants like Olympus Dining, Lottie and Bar Julius, all only 15 minutes from Sydney CBD.

Paul Shaw, Executive General Manager of TOGA Group, said it is rare to find a development that offers such strong synergy between space, privacy and connectivity.

"Residents can enjoy the oversized living areas, secluded communal gardens and private underground parking, while only being a walk away from the vibrant cultural offerings of Wunderlich Lane," Shaw said.

"The final three terraces of our exclusive Marriott Street collection offer a new way of modern living which has resonated strongly with both the community and the buyer market.”

<a href="/developers/thirdi-group">Third.i</a>&nbsp;has&nbsp;announced a strategic partnership with Dexus’s opportunistic Fund series, Dexus Real Estate Partnership (DREP), for the development of The Merewether Residences in Newcastle.&nbsp;

The second fund in the series, DREP2, has entered a joint venture with Third.i to deliver the $300 million, 178-unit retirement village on a one-hectare site at the Merewether Golf Club. The partnership will support Third.i’s vision and delivery of The Merewether Residences as a landmark over-55s community.&nbsp;

Luke Berry, Director and Co-Founder of Third.i Group said DREP plays a critical role in providing capital funding to support the development.

“This partnership with DREP2 reflects Third.i's reputation and experience as a developer, built on a track record of delivering outstanding projects," Berry says.

"We are excited to continue leading the way in creating vibrant residential communities.&nbsp;

Development approval has been obtained, and enabling works are underway with construction due to start later this year with completion expected by late-2027.&nbsp;

For several years, a prime development site on Upper Heidelberg Road in Ivanhoe—the gateway to one of Melbourne’s most exclusive north-eastern suburbs—sat vacant.

After a few delays Salter Brothers, one of Australia's leading alternative investment managers, acquired the 2,445 sqm block.

Construction is now set to begin on <a href="/new-apartments/candela-ivanhoe-40-upper-heidelberg-road-ivanhoe">Candela Ivanhoe</a>, the only off the plan apartment development currently available in the area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=212227]

The brief for architect John Demos was to design a building that would embrace the unique shape of the site allowing for maximum light and flexible floor plan options that would appeal to a diverse range of buyers. The result is a boutique, six-level development comprising 62 apartments, offering a mix of one, two, three, and four-bedroom configurations.

Kathy Demos handled the interior designs for the apartments, focusing on functionality and sustainability. The building has been designed to deliver a 7-star average energy rating average outlined in the Building Code of Australia.

Candela - the influence of light - inspired the name of the building, as all apartments are designed to enhance daylight access in all living areas and bedrooms, reducing the reliance on electric lighting and increasing the wellbeing of residents. Renewable Energy A 25kW Solar PV system will be installed on the roof to help power the communal areas and reduce owners' corporation contribution.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=336455]

In addition to introducing new apartment living to a suburb traditionally dominated by detached houses, Salter Brothers is also bringing a number of amenities to Ivanhoe. The apartments will sit above a providore, and commercial spaces—encouraging resident interaction while serving the wider community. Residents will also enjoy private amenities, including a landscaped communal rooftop terrace for resident use.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=169534]

Arguably, Candela’s biggest drawcard is its location. Boasting a Walk Score of 90 out of 100, the development is just a six-minute walk from Ivanhoe Station and is surrounded by cafés, restaurants, parks, and schools. In this highly walkable neighbourhood, owning a car is truly optional.

Construction will soon commence on Candela, with completion expected toward the end of 2026.

Kingsford Direct Director Sonia Fava says Candela has been worth the wait for owner-occupiers seeking to secure a home in the brilliantly located Ivanhoe Village.

<a href="/developers/sma-projects">SMA Projects</a> believes in flexibility when it comes to property development, making it easier for their purchasers, the majority of whom are downsizers, to transition from their family home into a new apartment.

As well as offering <a href="/news/vic/why-the-ability-to-customise-is-a-crucial-offering-in-the-off-the-plan-apartment-market">customisable floorplans to suit a buyers' needs</a>, the lifestyle developer also offers a stress-free way of downsizing.

Their 'Settle When You've Sold' initiative allows those coming from another home to wait until they have sold it before settling on their new apartment, removing the complexity of coordinating the sale of their current home in time for building completion.

The flexible scheme is available to buyers at its latest apartment development <a href="/new-apartments/the-regent-fitzroy-340-fitzroy-street-fitzroy-vic-3065">The Regent Fitzroy</a>, a reimagination of the old Regent Theatre which once stood on the <a href="/developments/fitzroy-vic-3065">Fitzroy</a> Street site.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24824 project_image_fid=304614]

The Regent will comprise 64 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, with two-bedroom, two-bathroom residences starting from $725,000.

Designed by acclaimed architecture firm <a href="/architects/hayball">Hayball</a> with interiors by <a href="/interior-designers/studio-tate">Studio Tate</a>, The Regent is a tribute to Fitzroy’s storied past and dynamic present. It features two distinct interior schemes: the Classic Collection, a Nordic-inspired light palette, and the darker, moodier Arthouse Collection.&nbsp;

Each residence is crafted to evoke the cinematic glamour of the original Regent Theatre, from arched ceilings and art deco-inspired detailing in the foyer, to expansive living areas that open onto private balconies or terraces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24824 project_image_fid=304767]

Residents at The Regent will enjoy access to a 315 sqm rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the city skyline, complete with BBQ and dining spaces.

A resident guest suite offers a hotel-style option for visiting friends and family, while pet owners will appreciate the convenience of an on-site dog wash.&nbsp;

The inclusion of a resident workshop also reflects SMA Projects’ dedication to supporting a lifestyle that is both creative and practical.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24824 project_image_fid=304766]

The Regent will rise from a prime corner site bordering Fitzroy and Johnston Streets, one of the most walkable developments currently being delivered in the area. Think walking distance to artisan cafes, independent boutiques, leafy parks, and renowned restaurants.&nbsp;

Currently off the plan apartment buyers in Victoria can purchase with no stamp duty, but only until the end of October 2025.

Barry Morris’ <a href="/developers/morris-property-group">Morris Property Group</a> has been central to the transformation of the nation’s capital since their first investment in the late-1970s.

Now the developer is onto their 78th project, having already delivered over 7,000 apartments over the last four decades.

Their most recent development, <a href="/new-apartments/iris-belconnen-53-benjamin-way-belconnen-act-2617">Iris</a>, will bring 239 one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments to the heart of <a href="/developments/belconnen-act-2617">Belconnen</a>. 

Iris, designed by <a href="/architects/guida-moseley-brown-architects">Guida Moseley Brown Architects</a>, will feature four low-rise buildings on Benjamin Way, a stone’s throw from the growing town centre.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149774 project_image_fid=346516]

The apartments all feature the must-haves in apartment living, like hybrid timber flooring, double-glazed windows, ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning systems, and large sliding glass doors that open up to private balconies.

Kitchens will feature European appliances by Franke, and Cassa Luso tapware will be used in both the kitchens and bathrooms.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149774 project_image_fid=346512]

Iris residents will be well-serviced with a full 1,875 sqm retail precinct on the ground level, as well as a range of private resident facilities like a gym, yoga lawn, sundeck, and swimming pool. 

The one-bedroom apartments, with over 60 sqm of living space and a parking spot, start from $479,900 — well below the near-$600,000 median of units in Canberra.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149774 project_image_fid=346511]

Iris will rise from a prime 8,000 sqm-plus site on Benjamin Way, walking distance from Westfield Belconnen, home to over 270 specialty retail, food, and beverage outlets. It is also a short walk to the newly revitalised Capitol Food Market, which brings local businesses and farmers together to support the local community and enjoy fresh produce and multicultural cuisine.

The rest of Canberra can be accessed easily via the Belconnen Bus Interchange, next door to the Westfield.

Morris Property Group’s in-house construction business will be responsible for the delivery of the build.

Until now, it has been nearly impossible to obtain a Passivhaus home without building one yourself.

C. Street Projects has collaborated with award-winning Neil Architecture to bring the world’s best standard for energy efficiency to Melbourne’s leafy Hawthorn.

These rare three-bedroom homes are continuously ventilated with fresh, filtered air, significantly reducing allergens and pollutants in the home.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112386 project_image_fid=338634]

Designed to maintain a comfortable 23 degrees during all seasons of the year while using 70 per cent less energy than a typical Victorian home, the Passivhaus-certified homes are also incredibly quiet, thanks to triple-glazed windows, straw panel insulation, and intelligent airtight membranes. Additionally, they are equipped with EV chargers, PV solar, and battery storage, operating as net zero energy buildings for the ultimate sustainable lifestyle.

Kin Seng Choo and Michael Robertson, the duo behind C. Street Projects, have spent the last five years developing a method and design approach to scaling certified Passivhaus projects suited to the unique challenges of Australian conditions.

“Australians should have access to sustainable homes built to global best practice. Turnkey homes certified to the Passivhaus standard provide that independent verification and surety of quality,” says Choo.

“Passivhaus certification is the exemplary benchmark for high-performance building, recognised globally. While relatively new in Australia, this model is well established in Europe, the United States and Canada. The guaranteed performance from its stringent certification process is a major selling point."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112386 project_image_fid=338637]

C. Street is committed to improving the quality of buildings with international best practices and innovates approaches that pair architectural design with excellent performance.

“It has been a challenge to deliver Passivhaus certification consistently and reliably because there is a rigorous testing and commissioning process at the end.

We’ve worked tirelessly on our approach to ensure this can be done at scale. Living in a Passivhaus is an awesome experience. It will change your perspective on what’s important in a home – away from surface finishes, to focusing on what’s under the hood and what true comfort really means,” says Robertson.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112386 project_image_fid=338647]

Choo says great architecture and material finishes must be paired with energy-efficient design and the quality of execution.

"Building your own certified Passivhaus is daunting, but now <a href="/buildings/echo-hawthorn-360-auburn-road-hawthorn">ECHO</a> provides a brand new, turnkey solution available to the market. Buyers have a choice."

“The Horizon Centre precinct will not only host Games action but will provide a lasting post-Games legacy, including a high-quality restaurant and entertainment district providing the Sunshine Coast with a world-leading venue for concerts, events and cultural experiences well beyond 2032,” Saba said.&nbsp;

SunCentral CEO Amanda Yeates said Maroochydore City Centre has become an economic powerhouse for the Sunshine Coast.

“In 10 years, we have seen Maroochydore City Centre transformed from a golf course to the makings of a real city, and with incredible projects underway all around us at SOL by Walker, 50 First Avenue, Maroochy Private Hospital and now new legacy infrastructure, the next decade is shaping up to be even bigger,” Ms Yeates said.&nbsp;

National apartment developer Abadeen Group is bringing its expertise from decades of developing luxury apartments in Sydney, and more recently Melbourne, to the Gold Coast.

<a href="/developers/abadeen-group">Abadeen</a>, founded in 1995 by industry veteran Justin Brown, chose one of the Gold Coast's most popular suburbs for its debut project, Villea, located just 400m away from the sand in<a href="/developments/palm-beach-qld-4221"> Palm Beach</a>.

<a href="/new-apartments/villea-palm-beach">Villea</a>, already well under construction and expected to welcome buyers by the end of 2025, will consist of just 69 apartments across an eight-level building designed by BDA Architecture. It presents a rare opportunity to purchase a two-bedroom apartment for under $1 million in a suburb dominated by luxury beachfront projects.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336441]

The apartments have been designed to evoke beachside living. They feature a neutral, coastal colour palette, and have been configured to open to the outdoors through large sliding glass doors, to capture views to either the Pacific Ocean, Tallebudgera Creek, Burleigh Headland, and Snapper Rocks.

Villea residents will be well catered for Villea includes private resort-style amenities such as a resort-style pool enveloped in lush landscaping, a fully equipped gym, and a recreational BBQ area.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336442]

The Mawarra Street building, one of only a handful under development on the western side of the Gold Coast Highway where prices are much more affordable than the eastern side, sits in a quiet pocket that is dominated by established houses.

While just a short walk to beachside amenity, Abadeen will bring further convenience by activating the ground plane of Villea with a boutique retail precinct.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336445]

Villea residents will also benefit from the extended G:Link light rail that will be extended all the way down to Coolangatta. One of the proposed stops in Palm Beach is just 650m away.

SRQ Projects Director, Nick Clydsdale says Villea residents will be able to embrace a lifestyle unlike any other.

“Villea embraces the essence of Palm Beach living, where mornings begin with a great coffee just steps from home, and the beach is the backyard. From sunrise strolls on the sand to paddleboarding at Tally Creek, Villea places you at the heart of Palm Beach’s natural beauty.”

Villea is already well under construction and is expected to complete by the end of 2025, with buyers moving in shortly after.

GV Property Group's Antonio Mercuri and Luke Reaby amalgamated the site for Abadeen.

	<li aria-level="1">Willbowbark Park has been completed and officially opens this month</li>
	<li aria-level="1">Stage 2 is now selling and construction of homes has commenced</li>
</ul>

<hr />
<a href="/developers/development-victoria">Development Victoria</a> has started to welcome the first residents at its burgeoning <a href="/developers/development-victoria">Sunshine North</a> masterplanned community, <a href="/new-townhouses/luma-sunshine-north-247-st-albans-road-sunshine-north">LUMA</a>.

Development Victoria, the development arm of the Victoria Government, sold out the first stage of the community, located halfway between Ginifer and Albion Stations.

They’ve recently started construction on the second stage, a mix of 85 one, two, three, and four-bedroom townhouses, purposefully varied in configurations which have drawn the eye of everyone from first home buyers and investors to young families and downsizers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27783 project_image_fid=286483]

The homes at LUMA are designed with a focus on sustainability and are all-electric, featuring solar PV with battery storage, double-glazed windows, and a minimum 7-star <a href="/guides/what-is-a-nathers-rating-in-new-off-the-plan-apartment-developments">NatHERS</a> energy rating.

Development Victoria ensured the first residents to call LUMA home would already be part of a community. As part of the first stage is the 3,600 sqm Willbowbark Park, set to open in April. The park, a short walk from the townhouses in the first two stages at LUMA, will have a fully equipped children’s playground, a sheltered BBQ, picnic area, and large grass expanses, met with clusters of retained established trees.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27783 project_image_fid=96894]

Plans for a pedestrian and vehicle bridge over Stony Creek via Metherall Street will further connect LUMA to the surrounding neighbourhoods, while following stages will include the future development of a commercial and retail precinct within the masterplan.

Positioned near the proposed Sunshine Precinct, LUMA will benefit from significant infrastructure projects, including the future Sunshine Station Superhub, Melbourne Airport Rail, and the Western Rail Plan, enhancing connectivity to Melbourne’s CBD, the airport, and regional areas.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27783 project_image_fid=255556]

The broader Sunshine Precinct is expected to become a major employment and innovation hub, supporting up to 45,000 jobs and 70,000 residents.

Development Victoria is a government agency partnering with industry and communities to create sustainable, liveable places for people. They unlock underutilised land to deliver housing across Victoria, from house and land communities in Officer and Springvale, to mixed-use precincts in Fitzroy and Kew. They build a variety of homes and communities where people can thrive while catering to different budgets, lifestyles and needs so that more people can live where they want to be at prices they can afford.

To make home ownership more accessible, Development Victoria is offering a low-deposit scheme. Buyers can secure a home at LUMA with just a 2.5 per cent deposit upfront, with a further 2.5 per cent required up to six months after signing the contract.&nbsp;

With no progress payments required during construction, this initiative aims to provide more Victorians with the opportunity to enter the property market in a well-connected and growing community.&nbsp;

A Priority Access Program is also in place, providing eligible buyers with an early opportunity to secure homes before they are made available to the broader market.

<hr />
Design-driven developer <a href="/developers/angle">ANGLE</a> has reached two significant milestones with its recently unveiled Kew residential development, Fernhurst.

First, they have secured funding from ANZ, making it one of the few new residential developments in Melbourne backed by a Big Four bank. With financing in place and a significant percentage of homes already sold, ANGLE has appointed high-end builder <a href="/builders/coben">COBEN</a> to deliver a mix of apartments and freestanding houses in one of <a href="/developments/kew-vic-3101">Kew's most coveted locations</a>.

COBEN has already begun site works on the rare 4,000 sqm Fernhurst Grove site, nestled in the heart of the leafy Studley Park, where new development is exceptionally scarce.

<a href="/new-apartments/fernhurst-kew-11-15-fernhurst-grove-kew-vic-3101">Fernhurst</a> will feature just 18 apartments and three freestanding houses, all privately set one street back from the vibrancy and convenience of Kew Junction.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138904 project_image_fid=326922]

Fernhurst marks another collaboration between ANGLE, COBEN, <a href="/architects/edition-office">Edition Office</a>, and <a href="/landscape-architect/eckersley-garden-architecture">Eckersley Garden Architecture</a>. The same team previously partnered on ANGLE’s Fenwick development in Studley Park, a multi-award-winning project just 700 meters from Fernhurst.

ANGLE prioritizes privacy in its designs. The large size of the site has allowed for generous setbacks, and extensive landscaping has been used to almost conceal the buildings from the streetscape.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138904 project_image_fid=326892]

Edition Office and Eckersley Garden Architecture worked closely together to ensure that the design and articulation of the buildings complement, rather than compete with, the landscaping. The design highlights a strong connection to nature, with the brick façade seamlessly blending into the abundant greenery. The architecture conveys a sense of permanence, making the buildings appear as if they have been part of the streetscape for decades.

The apartments in Fernhurst feature spacious, open-plan living areas with a minimum ceiling height of three meters, designed to maximize natural light and create a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces. Each of the two and three-bedroom apartments includes lush terraces or courtyards.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138904 project_image_fid=326884]

True to ANGLE's ethos, the development prioritizes space and quality over density. Despite occupying a full acre site, the apartments are generously sized, with two-bedroom units starting at over 140 sqm—some of the largest two-bedroom apartments available in Melbourne. The three-bedroom apartments offer more than 200 sqm of true indoor-outdoor living space.

The interiors are crafted with a refined and tactile material palette, featuring European oak flooring, travertine tiles, and bespoke timber joinery. Kitchens are equipped with Gaggenau appliances and Brodware tapware, while bedrooms include Molteni&amp;C wardrobes and luxurious wool carpets.

Fernhurst will also feature three unique freestanding houses. Two will be newly built, each with three bedrooms, a home office, four bathrooms, and garages. The third home is a grand heritage property that will be carefully restored and brought into the 21st century with a reconfigured floor plan, all while retaining its original façade.

<a href="/project-marketer/jellis-craig-projects">Jellis Craig Projects</a> Director Stephen Bowtell is selling Fernhurst, having sold out Fenwick before it completed in 2023.

"Fernhurst offers a rare opportunity for downsizers looking to live in Kew's historic Studley Park Estate," Bowtell says.

"It's not often a development in inner Melbourne combines such natural beauty and privacy, while also being so well connected to everything one of Melbourne's best suburbs has to offer. ANGLE, Edition Office and Eckersley Garden Architecture have come together again to bring what will be another landmark development in Kew for generations to come."
