Developer Iris Capital has joined the growing number of developers bringing construction in house.

Approaching completion of early construction works by CF Group, the Sam Arnaout-led developer will be building the next stage of construction of its much anticipated two-tower development Victoria & Albert by itself.

They've announced Iris Built, already fully licensed with the QBCC. They've assembled an experienced and dedicated Tier 1 construction team with extensive major project experience to focus fully on the delivery of V&A.

The Iris Built team will continue to work closely with Eastview Australia, an experienced project management business that has been delivering major high-rise developments on the Gold Coast for over 20 years.

This structure will allow the project to be delivered to the highest possible standards, with an Iris Group business acting in the capacity of builder.

Over half of the 399 apartments in Victoria & Albert have sold.

The apartments have been designed by renowned architecture firm DBI, who drew inspiration from the coastal environment.

V&A is being built in the heart of Broadbeach, on the old Niecon Plaza site, which has been demolished. The towers will sit atop a $200 million commercial, retail and fresh food precinct. Colliers sales agent Paul Putsay says the commercial offering has particularly resonated with buyers from Melbourne and Sydney, who appreciate the convenience and vibrancy offered by a vibrant commercial hub.

V&A will also feature a 25-metre lap pool with an outdoor dining and barbecue area, a spa and steam room, a Zen garden, a yoga deck, a boutique resident's lounge, and a kid's club area with a playground, all surrounded by sub-tropical gardens.

The project also includes a residents sky lounge on the top level of the Victoria tower, complete with luxury dining, lounge, wellness, and work zones, taking in ocean and city skyline views.
