"A deliciously eclectic urban village": Inside Stones Corner's newest apartment development, Corner House

Until eight years ago, Stones Corner was simply a neighbourhood within Greenslopes and Coorparoo. But in 2017, the small 0.6-square-kilometre area became its own suburb, named after James Stone, who operated a ginger beer shop there in 1875.

Anchored by Hanlon Park—one of Brisbane's best parks—Stones Corner is now well and truly on the map.

Stones Corner, a small and deliciously eclectic urban village, is one of inner-city Brisbane’s biggest residential opportunities and best-kept secrets,” Slaite Projects Director Brett Jackson says.

The Slaite team, on behalf of developer DeMartini Fletcher Property, recently launched Corner House—just 88 apartments on the corner of Montague and Stoneham Streets. Within a matter of months, 50 per cent of the apartments have already been spoken for.

We recently joined Jackson at the onsite display suite for Corner House to find out more about the project.

“Corner House honours the character and vernacular of Stones Corner while adding a fresh contemporary spin,” Jackson says.

The building has been designed by Ellivo Architects, who incorporated the existing red brick corner structure—a nod to the surrounding area. The upper levels step back and are wrapped in curved balconies with soft, fluid edges.

While larger towers are rising in the nearby Woolloongabba precinct, Corner House keeps things deliberately modest. The 88 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments are spread across an 11-level building.

“Each residence has been designed to be luxuriously spacious, with open-plan living, a large entertainer’s kitchen, and ample storage,” Jackson says.

Flush floor finishes allow living areas to flow directly onto the balcony, while green-screen planters between apartments help soften sightlines and maintain privacy.

There’s a noticeable consistency in the finishes throughout—no jarring leap between entry-level and premium inclusions. Kitchens come fitted with a full suite of integrated Italian-designed Kleenmaid appliances, including double fridges and freezers.

A strong design trend over the past five years has been to place resident amenities on the rooftop—and that's exactly what Ellivo leaned into when designing the building.

“The rooftop at Corner House has been conceived as an all-encompassing experience designed to enhance your lifestyle,” Jackson says.

The roof will feature a resort-style infinity pool that spans almost the entire width of the building, a spa, sauna, and ice bath, as well as a gym, yoga lawn, herb garden, and BBQ facilities.

Construction has commenced at Corner House with an early 2028 completion.
