<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen">Abadeen</a> and <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/perifa">PERIFA</a> have celebrated the topping out of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf,</a> marking a significant milestone in the delivery of one of Syd​ney's most anticipated waterfront communities.

Located on Sydney's harbourfront at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/putney-nsw-2112">Putney</a>, the project has now reached its highest structural point, with construction progressing strongly towards completion in 2027. 
&nbsp; 
The milestone was celebrated on-site with project partners Phoenix Property Investors, Mitsubishi Estate Asia, Versatile Construction, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/sjb-architects">SJB</a>, consultants and stakeholders, to recognise the collective effort behind the transformation of the historic waterfront site into a vibrant new residential, marina and lifestyle destination.

&nbsp; 
<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> will deliver a mix of waterfront residences and terraces, complemented by a private 36-berth marina, waterfront dining opportunities and a revitalised foreshore designed to reconnect the community with the river's edge. 
&nbsp; 
Abadeen Executive Chairman and Founder Justin Brown said the project represented a rare opportunity to create the next chapter in Sydn​ey's long history of successful waterfront precincts. 
&nbsp; 
"Throughout Sydney, some of the city's most sought-after addresses have emerged from carefully considered waterfront precincts such as Woolloom​ooloo Wharf, Walsh Bay and Breakfast Point," Brown said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=362566] 
&nbsp; 
"What makes these places so successful is that they become much more than residential developments," Brown said.

"They bring together homes, hospitality, marina facilities, public spaces and a strong sense of community in locations where future supply is incredibly limited."

Brown has long described absolute waterfront land in Sy​dney as "finite."

"Once these opportunities are developed, they are rarely replicated. That's why Syd​ney's waterfront precincts have consistently demonstrated strong demand and long-term value growth over many decades. 
&nbsp; 
"<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> is one of the few remaining opportunities to secure a residence within a masterplanned waterfront community that combines direct water access, marina ownership opportunities and a genuine village lifestyle just moments from the Sy​dney CBD."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=362564] 
&nbsp; 
PERIFA Founder and Managing Director Fabrizio Perilli said the project reflected a shared commitment to delivering exceptional places that create long-term value for residents and the broader community. 
&nbsp; 
"The topping out milestone is a significant achievement for the Versatile Group and a testament to the collaboration between all project partners, consultants and contractors involved," Perilli said. 
&nbsp; 
"Beyond the residences themselves, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> will establish a new waterfront destination that celebrates the history, character and lifestyle of this unique location while creating a lasting legacy for future generations."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=291195] 
&nbsp; 
Construction is being delivered by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/versatile">Versatile Construction</a>, with structural works now substantially complete across the precinct. Attention will progressively shift to the construction of the waterview terraces, apartment façades, services and interior fit-out works over the coming months. 
&nbsp; 
With limited residences and marina berths remaining, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> continues to attract strong interest from owner occupiers and downsizers seeking a premium waterfront lifestyle within close proximity to Putne​y Village, Rh​odes, Top Ry​de and the Syd​ney CBD. 
&nbsp; 
As one of the last opportunities to secure a residence within a new masterplanned waterfront community on Sy​dney Harbour, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-harbourfront-precinct-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a> is expected to remain a highly sought-after address for years to come.

Kew has long been regarded as one of Melbourne's premier residential suburbs. It's a location defined by its grand period homes, leafy streets and some of the city's most prestigious schools, yet it has often sat just outside the spotlight cast on neighbouring Hawthorn and Camberwell.

Increasingly, however, buyers are recognising that Kew offers much of what draws people to those suburbs, with a quieter residential setting, exceptional amenity and long-term owner-occupier appeal.

Within a few minutes' walk, residents can access Kew Junction, one of Melbourne's most established village centres. Cafés, bakeries, restaurants, supermarkets, boutique retailers and everyday services are all on the doorstep, with local favourites including Centonove, Adeney Milk Bar Cafe, and Frank &amp; Harri creating the type of walkable lifestyle that has become increasingly difficult to find in Melbourne's inner east. Beyond the immediate neighbourhood, Glenferrie Road's renowned shopping and dining precinct in Hawthorn and the retail, dining and entertainment offerings of Camberwell Junction are both just a short drive or tram ride away.

The suburb is equally well connected. Tram routes 48 and 109 provide direct access to the CBD, while High Street and Cotham Road connect residents to the wider inner east.&nbsp;Nearby access to the Eastern Freeway also places the Yarra Valley, Mornington Peninsula and Melbourne Airport within easy reach, adding another layer of convenience for weekend travel.&nbsp;It's a rare combination of connectivity and tranquillity, where quiet residential streets sit just moments from some of Melbourne's most established shopping and lifestyle precincts.

For families, Kew remains one of Melbourne's most tightly held addresses. Carey Baptist Grammar School, Xavier College, Methodist Ladies' College, Trinity Grammar, Ruyton Girls' School and Genazzano FCJ College are all nearby, while the Yarra River parklands, walking trails and sporting clubs provide another layer of lifestyle appeal.

It's within this established pocket that developer Ricdanic is delivering <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/wimba-ave-kew-9-11-wimba-avenue-kew-vic-3101">Wimba Ave</a>, a boutique collection of just 13 residences across two buildings named after its location on the tree-lined Wimba Avenue,&nbsp;within one of Kew's most prestigious pockets where homes have been known to sell up to and above $8 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140755 project_image_fid=354809]

The residences prioritise the space that buyers are increasingly searching for but struggling to find in established suburbs. Living areas extend beyond five metres in width, ceiling heights range from three to five metres, and apartments open onto private gardens averaging around 125 sqm. Selected residences also feature balconies of approximately 60 sqm, while premium inclusions include Miele appliances, double-glazed windows, EV readiness, fully electric systems and a 7.2 NatHERS energy rating.

Architect Chris Idle says opportunities to deliver homes of this scale within established suburbs have become increasingly uncommon.

"There are very few opportunities to do these kinds of developments in leafy, established suburbs," he says. "To get this level of amenity, natural light, and architectural freedom in such a setting is extremely rare."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140755 project_image_fid=366267]

The architecture draws on Kew's established character through the use of handmade Krause bricks, while landscaping by John Patrick introduces 23 plant species, including nine native varieties, creating an environment which focuses just as much on nature as it does the building.

Construction on Wimba Ave is well underway by renowned high-end builder Sinjen, with completion expected in late 2027. Prices start from $2.22 million.

The enduring appeal of Kew's tree-lined streets and village lifestyle

"For me, it's the location." That was the first thing Chris pointed to when reflecting on why he and his wife Marita decided to purchase at Candela Ivanhoe, the under-construction new apartment development by Salter Brothers in the heart of the north-eastern M​elb​ourne​ suburb. ​

"We've lived here before… everything is here," Chris said.

"Our doctor is around the corner, there's dentists, pilates, everything we need, restaurants, fast food places, two train stations, Ivanhoe and Darebin, both in walking distance. You don't need anything else."

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/X8K0Bozug7A?si=Puwc6vx_ZO0qQZF8" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

Just 10 kilometres from Melbo​urn​e's CBD, Ivanhoe combines direct city connectivity with the amenity of an established village community. Residents have access to highly regarded schools, expansive parklands, public transport, and a thriving retail and hospitality precinct centred around Upper Heidelberg Road, all within a neighbourhood that has retained its leafy character despite its proximity to the city.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/candela-ivanhoe-40-upper-heidelberg-road-ivanhoe-vic-3079">Candela Ivanhoe</a> sits within the heart of this established landscape, positioned just moments from Ivanhoe Village and within walking distance of many of the suburb's most sought-after amenities.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=364553]

From Candela, residents can access cafés, grocers, wine bars, restaurants and essential services on foot, while Ivanhoe Station and Darebin Station provide direct connectivity across Mel​bour​ne. The development is also surrounded by some of the suburb's best-known lifestyle destinations, including Pinkie, Laurent, Enni, Docasa and Woodfire Pizza e Cucina, alongside Ivanhoe Plaza, Woolworths, pharmacies and specialty retailers.

Green space is another defining feature of the suburb. Darebin Parklands, Ivanhoe Park, Nellie Ibbot Park and the Yarra River trail network provide extensive opportunities for recreation, while Ivanhoe Golf Course and Ivanhoe Tennis Club continue to underpin the area's long-established lifestyle appeal.

The suburb's education offering further strengthens demand. Ivanhoe Grammar School, Ivanhoe Girls' Grammar School, Mary Immaculate Primary School and Ivanhoe Primary School have helped establish the area as one of Melbou​​rne's most sought-after schooling precincts, attracting families and downsizers alike who want to remain connected to the area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=357510]

While location was the priority for Marita and Chris, the project itself also needed to meet their expectations.

"Whilst location was paramount, I was also looking at design of the environment and Candela ticked every box," Marita said.

"We're just thrilled with our choice."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=336455]

Developed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/salter-brothers">Salter Brothers</a>, Candela Ivanhoe has been designed to complement its village setting, with an emphasis on generous floorplans, natural light and practical everyday living.

Residents will have access to a range of shared amenities, including a communal rooftop garden and dedicated residential lounge, complemented by a ground-floor café and lifestyle wellbeing centre, helping foster the sense of community already emerging among future owners.

That approach has resonated strongly with the market. More than 90 per cent of purchasers at Candela Ivanhoe are owner-occupiers, with buyers ranging from downsizers and second-home buyers to young families and first home buyers, creating a genuinely multi-generational community of grandparents, parents and children. It reflects a broader shift across Melbo​​urne's apartment market, where buyers are increasingly prioritising neighbourhood quality, lifestyle amenity and long-term liveability.

Currently under construction by Ironside, Candela Ivanhoe comprises 58 apartments. Candela Ivanhoe is scheduled for completion in the coming months, and residents can move in from September. One to four bedroom residences, prices from $649,000 and limited opportunities remaining.

Location and lifestyle drive demand at Candela Ivanhoe

As apartment buyers increasingly look beyond the four walls of their residence, the quality and depth of shared amenity has become a defining factor in how developments are designed and experienced, particularly in the high-rise, new apartment development space.

In Southbank, where high-density living continues to evolve, developers are placing greater emphasis on creating environments that support wellbeing, connection, and convenience as part of everyday life.

That approach sits at the heart of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/aura-at-melbourne-square-7-hoff-boulevard-southbank-vic-3006">AURA</a>, the latest residential tower in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/osk-property">OSK Property</a>’s $3.5 billion Melbourne Square precinct. Rising 67 storeys above Hoff Boulevard, the 673-apartment development has been conceived around what OSK describes as a “vertical wellness ecosystem”, a layered collection of amenities that extends throughout the building rather than being confined to a single podium level.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=370263]

The amenity offering begins on the seventh level within the AURA Club, a dedicated resident hub focused on health, relaxation, and daily convenience. Here, residents will have access to an indoor swimming pool, cold plunge, spa, sauna, and steam room, alongside a fully equipped gym, reformer Pilates studio, and yoga room.

The wellness facilities are complemented by a range of spaces that acknowledge the changing ways people live and work. Work-from-home lounges and co-working areas sit alongside a library, music room, games room, cinema facilities, and open-air terrace spaces, providing residents with flexible environments that can adapt throughout the day.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367468]

Beyond the internal amenity, AURA introduces a series of Japanese-inspired gardens that form a quieter counterpoint to the tower’s social spaces.

Landscaped retreats feature curated outdoor dining, tranquil courtyard seating, fire pit, and a tea house pavilion. Rather than functioning as simple recreational areas, the gardens have been designed as places for reflection and informal gathering, drawing on principles of balance, nature, and calm that underpin the project's broader design philosophy.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367810]

The social amenity continues to evolve as residents move higher through the building. Levels 49 and 50 house the Meridian Club, where a lounge bar, conservatory spaces, and private dining rooms take advantage of elevated city views. At the summit of the tower, the exclusive Cumulus Club spans Levels 66 and 67, offering additional lounges, private dining, and meditation and treatment rooms positioned above Melbourne’s skyline.

For OSK Property, the extensive amenity offering reflects a broader focus on wellbeing as a core component of apartment living rather than an added feature.

“Aura stands tall as an exemplar of holistic wellness – its focus on social, physical and mental health culminate in a building that is calming, restorative and relaxing, where residents will have their own sanctuary within the well-connected and sought-after Southbank,” says OSK Property CEO Chong Boon Woon.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=367796]

AURA’s amenity strategy extends beyond the tower itself through its integration with the wider Melbourne Square precinct.

Residents will have direct access to Kennedy Park, Southbank’s 3,745 sqm landscaped public park, alongside a full-line Woolworths supermarket, childcare centre, hospitality venues, and approximately 1,600 sqm of additional retail planned within AURA’s lower levels. Together, these elements create a highly connected residential environment where daily needs, recreation, and wellness are woven into the fabric of the community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151921 project_image_fid=370253]

As Melbourne’s apartment market continues to mature, developments are increasingly judged by the lifestyle they provide beyond individual residences.

Through its combination of wellness facilities, landscaped retreats, social clubs, and precinct-wide amenity, AURA represents a shift toward a more comprehensive model of vertical living, one where shared spaces play as significant a role as the homes themselves.

AURA elevates amenity living at Melbourne Square

Builder-developer Scion is the latest to target Sydney's booming Hills Showground Metro precinct, filing plans for more than 100 apartments within walking distance of the station.

Scion has lodged a concurrent rezoning and State Significant Development Application for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/27-33-middleton-avenue-castle-hill-nsw-2154">27–33 Middleton Avenue</a>, where it plans to replace four existing homes with an 11 and 14-storey mixed-use development comprising 109 apartments, six affordable housing dwellings, and a ground-floor café.

Designed by BHK Architects, the proposal includes three levels of basement parking with 174 spaces, more than 1,200 sqm of communal open space, and extensive landscaping across the 3,791 sqm site.

The development has been designed as two buildings connected by a recessed wintergarden spine, with the 14-storey building positioned to the south and the 11-storey building to the north.

<img alt="Scion" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="64dc359d-736b-43b8-87a8-70a8285cab47" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-06-25%20at%208.47.01%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=PXh.m8id_aevBPHEckPf88wQ2RQThPos" />

The apartment mix has been weighted towards owner-occupiers, with 13 one-bedroom apartments, 55 two-bedroom residences, 31 three-bedroom apartments, six three-bedroom lofts, and four four-bedroom homes. Six apartments will be dedicated as affordable housing in line with the NSW Housing SEPP.

According to the Architectural Design Report by BKH, the proposal seeks to create "a place-responsive architecture" inspired by the natural landscape surrounding Cattai Creek, while strengthening the public domain through landscaping, active frontages and a neighbourhood café.

Atlas Urban, in its Urban Design Report, says the proposal takes a different approach to increasing density around Hills Showground Station by favouring a more slender, vertically articulated built form over a conventional mid-rise outcome. The report argues this allows for greater deep soil planting, improved solar access and a better public domain outcome, while still delivering additional housing close to rapid public transport.

The site sits around 500 metres from Hills Showground Metro Station, within a precinct earmarked for significant residential intensification following the opening of the Sydney Metro Northwest line. Planning documents accompanying the application note that Greater Sydney's population has grown by more than one million people since planning for the precinct first began, reinforcing the need to accelerate housing delivery around existing transport infrastructure.

Scion is expanding its development pipeline which also includes <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/chatham-west-ryde-2-6-chatham-road-west-ryde-nsw-2114">Chatham in West Ryde</a>, 62 apartments which are approaching completion. They also have a State Significant Development Application with the NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/96-anzac-avenue-west-ryde-nsw-2114">145 apartments on Anzac Avenue</a>, also in West Ryde.

Sydney’s property market is known for high prices, competitive bidding, and mounting pressure on first home buyers. But change is on the horizon.

From late 2025, eligible first home buyers in New South Wales will have access to a new federal government initiative aimed at addressing affordability: the Help to Buy Scheme.&nbsp;

<h2>What is the Help to Buy Scheme?</h2>

The program introduces a shared equity model intended to reduce the upfront cost of entering the property market, particularly in high-demand urban areas such as Sydney.

The scheme operates under a shared ownership structure in which the federal government takes an equity stake of up to 40 per cent for new homes, or 30 per cent for existing dwellings. This arrangement allows eligible buyers to significantly reduce their loan size and avoid the added cost of Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI).

Under this model, purchasers can enter the property market with as little as a two per cent deposit, well below the traditional 10 to 20 per cent usually required. The government’s contribution is not a loan but a co-ownership stake in the property. As such, there is no interest or rent charged on its portion.

Because the government’s equity combined with the buyer’s deposit typically meets or exceeds the 20 per cent threshold, LMI does not apply. The remaining balance, generally between 60 and 70 per cent of the property’s value, is financed through a standard home loan with a participating lender.

The government's equity in the property remains in place until the buyer chooses to repay it voluntarily or until the property is sold. Buyers can buy back the government’s share over time, in increments of at least five per cent, depending on their financial situation.

There is no fixed repayment timeline, but the amount to be repaid will be based on the property's market value at the time of repayment, not the original purchase price.

<h2>How do you qualify for the&nbsp;Help to Buy Scheme?</h2>

To qualify for the Help to Buy Scheme, applicants must meet the following conditions:

<ul>
	<li>Be an Australian citizen at least 18 years of age.</li>
	<li>Be a first-home buyer who does not currently own property.</li>
	<li>Intend to live in the property as their primary residence.</li>
	<li>Earn less than $100,000 per year for individuals, or $160,000 for couples.</li>
	<li>Purchase a property within the regional price caps, currently $950,000 in Sydney, though this is expected to rise to approximately $1.3 million ahead of the program’s launch.</li>
</ul>

While the Help to Buy Scheme does not solve affordability challenges across the board, it does offer a more accessible pathway for a defined segment of the market, particularly younger buyers with moderate incomes who have been priced out of traditional lending routes.

The scheme is expected to commence in NSW in late 2025, as part of a national rollout.

Under the new model, purchasers can enter the property market with as little as a two per cent deposit, well below the traditional 10 to 20 per cent usually required

Help to Buy Scheme: What first home buyers in NSW need to know

The First Home Owners Grant (FHOG) is a government initiative designed to help eligible first-time home buyers by offering financial assistance towards the purchase or construction of a new home.

While the FHOG is a nationwide program, it is administered separately by each state and territory, meaning the eligibility criteria, grant amounts, and property requirements can vary depending on your location. This means that the amount available and the conditions attached to the grant will differ, so it is important to check the specific guidelines for your state or territory.

It’s important to note that the FHOG is just one of several incentives available to first home buyers. In most states and territories, the grant is not linked to stamp duty exemptions or concessions, with the exception of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). The FHOG is typically a one-off payment, reducing the overall cost of purchasing or building a new home before any stamp duty concessions are applied.

Below, we provide a breakdown of the First Home Owner Grants available across Australia, outlining the specific details for each state and territory.

Every First Home Owner Grant for new property by state

In the ever-evolving landscape of sustainable architecture and environmentally conscious design, systems and ratings in place can help determine the energy efficiency of residential buildings in Australia.

Australia has multiple building rating systems that evaluate energy efficiency and sustainability in existing and new building designs.

Some systems assess individual building components, while others provide an overall rating for the entire structure.

A rating system ensures that homes are comfortable and energy-efficient, whether you are buying, renovating, or building.

NatHERS (Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme) is a common way for new homes to meet energy efficiency requirements.

As new developments continue to shape the urban environment, understanding NatHERS ratings becomes essential for developers and homeowners. This article delves into the concept of NatHERS ratings, their significance, and how they contribute to creating energy-efficient homes.

<h2>What is NatHERS?</h2>

NatHERS is a national initiative implemented by the Australian government to promote energy efficiency in residential buildings. The scheme aims to provide a standardised method for assessing the thermal performance of homes, considering factors such as insulation, orientation, ventilation, and building materials.&nbsp;

NatHERS ratings are the most common way new homes meet the National Construction Code's (NCC's) minimum energy efficiency requirements.&nbsp;

NatHERS assessments provide thermal and whole-home ratings for new homes, townhouses, and apartments.

The rating helps evaluate the energy performance of buildings, guides homeowners and developers to make informed decisions about the energy efficiency of their properties, and encourages the construction of more sustainable, comfortable, and cost-effective homes.

<h2>How NatHERS Ratings Work</h2>

NatHERS ratings are determined through four accredited software tools (AccuRate, BERS Pro, FirstRate5, HERO) using a calculation engine CSIRO developed to predict building temperature based on various factors.

The tools can model complex effects of building mass, insulation, window size, and other elements.

The outcome is a star rating that reflects the building's overall thermal efficiency, indicating how well it can maintain a comfortable indoor temperature without excessive reliance on heating or cooling systems.

The star rating scale ranges from 0 to 10, with a 6-star rating being the minimum requirement for compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC).&nbsp;

Achieving a higher star rating demonstrates a commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability, as the building is better equipped to minimise its environmental impact and reduce long-term energy costs.

Anyone can use NatHERS tools, but accredited assessors can provide certified ratings and professional advice.

<h2>Benefits of Higher NatHERS Ratings</h2>

Energy Efficiency: Buildings with higher NatHERS ratings are more energy-efficient, requiring less heating and cooling energy. This reduces the structure's carbon footprint and lowers occupants' energy bills.

Cost Savings: Homes with higher NatHERS ratings are generally more energy-efficient, resulting in reduced energy consumption for heating and cooling. This translates to lower energy bills for homeowners, making sustainable living environmentally friendly and economically viable in the long run.

Environmental Impact: Lower energy consumption directly translates to a reduced environmental impact. Buildings with higher NatHERS ratings contribute to the overall goal of mitigating climate change by lowering greenhouse gas emissions associated with heating and cooling systems.

Improved Comfort: Buildings with high NatHERS ratings offer better thermal comfort to occupants. Proper insulation, well-designed ventilation, and optimal orientation maintain a consistent and comfortable indoor temperature, providing occupants with a more enjoyable and healthier space.

Market Value and Desirability: Higher NatHERS ratings can enhance the market value of a property. As energy efficiency becomes a more significant consideration for homebuyers, a well-rated building may attract a premium price and stand out in the real estate market.

Compliance with Building Codes: NatHERS ratings are a vital component of the National Construction Code (NCC), and compliance with these ratings is often a mandatory requirement for new developments. Local councils and planning authorities may set minimum energy efficiency standards that must be met to obtain development approval.

The Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) is a crucial initiative shaping the future of energy-efficient, resilient, and cost-effective homes. With its recent upgrades, NatHERS has evolved into a world-leading tool for the building sector, supporting the global commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

What is a NatHERS rating in new off the plan apartment developments?

Mixed-use developments have gained significant popularity across Australia in recent years due to their unique blend of residential, commercial, and recreational spaces.

Unlike traditional single-purpose developments, mixed-use projects offer a harmonious integration of various functions within a single locale.

Residential units seamlessly coexist with commercial establishments, retail outlets, dining venues, entertainment hubs, and recreational facilities, with the combination not only enhances convenience but also fosters a vibrant lifestyle and a sense of community.

<h3>Convenience and accessibility</h3>

Mixed-use developments are designed with convenience in mind. They often integrate residential units with commercial spaces, retail outlets, restaurants, and recreational facilities, creating a self-contained community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204874]

The proximity allows residents to enjoy the convenience of having essential amenities and services within walking distance. Whether it's grabbing a cup of coffee, going grocery shopping, or accessing healthcare services, everything is conveniently located, saving residents time and effort.

<h3>Vibrant lifestyle and community</h3>

One of the major advantages of mixed-use developments is the vibrant lifestyle they offer. With a diverse range of amenities and communal spaces, residents have ample opportunities to interact, socialise, and build a sense of community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107714 project_image_fid=214122]

The presence of parks, community centres, and shared spaces fosters a lively atmosphere, encouraging residents to engage in various activities and events. The vibrant lifestyle within these developments creates a unique sense of belonging and camaraderie among the residents.

<h3>Potential for higher rental yields and property value appreciation</h3>

Mixed-use developments tend to attract a broad range of tenants and buyers due to their versatile nature. This high demand can result in higher rental yields for investors and potentially lead to property value appreciation over time.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=139989 project_image_fid=212887]

The integration of commercial and retail spaces attracts businesses, which can provide a stable rental income stream. Additionally, the popularity of mixed-use developments often drives up property values, making them a potentially lucrative investment in the long term.

<h3>Enhanced security and maintenance</h3>

Mixed-use developments typically have comprehensive security measures in place. With controlled access points, CCTV surveillance, and professional security staff, residents can enjoy enhanced safety and peace of mind.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108019 project_image_fid=212658]

Additionally, these developments often have dedicated maintenance teams responsible for the upkeep of common areas, landscaping, and infrastructure. This ensures that the overall appearance and functionality of the development are well-maintained, creating a pleasant living environment for residents.

<h3>Live-work-play balance</h3>

One of the key attractions of mixed-use developments is the ability to achieve a desirable live-work-play balance. The integration of residential and commercial spaces allows residents to live closer to their workplaces, reducing commuting time and improving work-life balance.

The proximity to various amenities and recreational facilities encourages an active and healthy lifestyle. Residents can easily access fitness centres, parks, restaurants, and entertainment options, all within the same development, leading to a more fulfilling and convenient way of life.

The top five reasons to buy in a mixed-use development

When buying a property, everyone needs to be aware of the additional costs that come as part of the buying process.

Often the largest outlay, after the deposit which goes to the bank, is stamp duty.

<h2 style="line-height: 1.38;">What is Stamp Duty?</h2>

Stamp duty is an extra tax to pay the government when you buy land, a property, and other certain assets.

It happens when the legal ownership is transferred. It can also be known as property transfer duty or transfer duty.

<h2>Who pays Stamp Duty?</h2>

In some circumstances, you may get an exemption. For some states, you won’t have to pay for stamp duty if you are a first home buyer or a pensioner for houses under a particular price. There are also stamp duty concessions, where you may be entitled to a discount.

<h2>How much does Stamp Duty cost?</h2>

Each state has different rules which affect how much you need to pay. These rules can affect the rate you pay, and the timeframe you will need to pay in. Before you buy land or a property, make sure you check the up-to-date information for your state’s stamp duty.

You can use a free stamp duty calculator online to see approximately how much you’ll need to pay. Find out if you’re eligible for an exemption by enquiring on a project via Urban!

Overall, the stamp duty you need to pay will depend on:

<ul>
	<li aria-level="1">How much your land/property is worth</li>
	<li aria-level="1">Where your land/property is located</li>

</ul>

Off-the-plan property explained: What is stamp duty?

A trio of Queensland property groups have unveiled plans for a $300 million mixed-use redevelopment of the former Noosa Bowls Club site, a proposal that would deliver more than 200 new homes in one of the Sunshine Coast's most supply-constrained markets.

Kilter Property, Frank Developments and Calile Malouf Investments are behind the plans for the 1.8-hectare site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/99-noosa-drive-noosa-heads-qld-4567">99 Noosa Drive</a>, which would transform the long-vacant site into a new residential precinct featuring 208 apartments, retail, hospitality and public space.

The proposal comes as Noosa continues to grapple with housing affordability and a shortage of permanent accommodation, particularly for key workers. The site's location in Noosa Junction, close to shops, public transport and employment, aligns with the direction of Noosa Council's Housing Strategy, which encourages higher-density housing within established activity centres rather than continued urban expansion.

The draft plans include 48 affordable-by-design apartments and 48 rooming accommodation units aimed at key workers. Around 2,000 sqm of ground-floor retail and food and beverage space would activate the street frontage, alongside a new public town square and landscaped open space.

<img alt="Noosa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2dd02f53-1360-4e51-801e-bfd61a6c980e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-06-26%20at%208.44.34%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=x1iNs3BSMN6Jy7YUwaBZMHRrrKX2hMpy" />

&nbsp;

Frank Developments Founder and Director Frank Licastro said the development would continue the company's focus on architecturally-led residential projects while addressing one of the region's biggest challenges.

"Not only will this project exude a sense of luxury, it will also enhance not only the built environment but also the surrounding community," Licastro said.

"Noosa's success relies on the people who live and work here. Providing well-designed accommodation for key workers is critical to supporting the local economy and ensuring the Shire can continue to thrive."

Kilter Property Co-Founder Huw Williams said the focus was on delivering additional permanent housing while creating a mixed-use destination that benefits both residents and the wider community.

"Our focus is on delivering a well-considered mixed-use project that provides more permanent housing options, supports local workers and businesses, and delivers an exceptional product for the local market," Williams said.

"The redevelopment vision aligns with the long-term evolution of Noosa Junction as a vibrant activity centre, creating a destination that enhances the area's character while delivering significant economic and community benefits."

Calile Malouf Investments, best known for its role in Brisbane's James Street precinct and The Calile Hotel, will bring its place-making experience to the project. The company recently commenced construction on The Calile Noosa hotel and says the residential development will complement its growing investment in the region.

CMI Director Cal Malouf said the aim was to create a walkable precinct combining housing, retail and hospitality while remaining true to Noosa's character.

"We see a similar opportunity in Noosa to deliver a vibrant, walkable destination that combines exceptional housing, hospitality and retail in one integrated project," Malouf said.

Brisbane-based Cavill Architects has been appointed to design the project.

Noosa Bowls Club to be redeveloped into mixed-use apartment precinct

The Brisbane property developer Kenlynn is heading back to Kangaroo Point for its next apartment project.

Following its successful development of Thornclyffe Residences, the redevelopment of the 1880s heritage-listed Thornclyffe House,&nbsp;Kenlynn, has lodged plans for a 15-level project dubbed 130Lambert, just up the road&nbsp;112-130 Lambert Street.

They secured both of the sites late last year for a combined $5.3 million, with the amalgamated sites totaling over 1,200 sqm.

Local architecture firm Ellivo Architects has drawn up the plans for the two and three-bedroom project which will feature contemporary sub-tropical design, incorporating a sequence of landscape components such as&nbsp;streetscape and entries, terrace gardens, and communal rooftop garden.

<img alt="" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" height="826" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-04_at_11.35.02_am.png" width="1594" />

"The overall design aims for an environmental and socially sustainable landscape and an integrated landscape experience with the building architecture and function, activating the site and creating a vibrant precinct and place to live," Kenlynn note on their website.

<a href="/new-apartments/130lambert">130Lambert</a> is set to launch to the market in the second half of 2024.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=145081 project_image_fid=281209]

Kenlynn's development manager, Andrew Travers, said the design is informed by impacts of COVID on how people live and work and attracting residents back to inner city living in apartments which offer generous space, good natural light/ventilation, plus work from home spaces.

"The development includes significant communal recreation and fitness spaces, edible garden, plus meeting/multi-purpose spaces," Travers added.

<img alt="" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" height="840" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-04_at_11.34.54_am.png" width="1638" />

"We have also incorporated dedicated EOT facility for more secure and purpose designed bike storage (noting future KP green bridge) for the increased use of active transport options in the city. We are also looking to incorporate dedicated parcel lockers (including some refrigerated) for online deliveries.

"Further into detailed design we will be looking to incorporate Solar Array for communal power, plus provision for EV charging."

Kenlynn has previously developed townhouse projects in New Farm and Hendra. Late last year they sold the Hendra Bowls Club for&nbsp;$3,575,000.

Kenlynn developed an eight-level, 20-apartment block around Thornclyffe House, a Victorian-style Queenslander well over a century old.

They secured both of the sites late last year for a combined $5.3 million, with the amalgamated sites totalling over 1,200 sqm

Kenlynn set for another boutique Kangaroo Point apartment development

Gold Coast locals have descended on Melbourne developer Hirsch &amp; Faigen&#39;s third Gold Coast apartment project, Yves.

The Mermaid Beach development is now 50 per cent&nbsp;sold since its launch, which has prompted Hirsch &amp; Faigen to bring forward construction, which will be handled by Hutchinsons, to May.

Most of the buyers have been local to the Gold Coast, the majority coming from within 50km of Mermaid Beach.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102451 project_image_fid=186075]

&ldquo;Many of these buyers are local downsizers, and even some local first home buyers, all of which have been enticed by Yves proximity to key amenities including the beachfront, Pacific Fair, the Gold Coast Highway and Broadbeach, while remaining secluded in its own private pocket,&rdquo; Hirsch and Faigen&rsquo;s QLD Sales Manager, Alex Jokovich, said.

&ldquo;I think the locality of buyers we&rsquo;ve welcomed is a huge testament to Yves&rsquo; appeal to discerning locals who have a deep appreciation and understanding of the projects positioning in one of the coasts&rsquo; most coveted residential addresses.&rdquo;

Designed by Rothelowman, Yves will rise 26 levels at 7-9 Mermaid Avenue and comprise 145 apartments.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102451 project_image_fid=186076]

Hirsch &amp; Faigen Co-Founder Daniel Faigen said, as with each of their&nbsp;Gold Coast projects, they wanted to create something that differentiated them from the market.

&quot;I think the sales we&rsquo;ve achieved to date are a strong indication that our aptitude for quality design and remarkable architecture are resonating with buyers.&quot;

Prices for remaining Yves apartments range from $875,000 to $2.495 million.

Yves&rsquo; ultra-exclusive penthouse collection remains for sale, offering&nbsp;335 sqm of living space.&nbsp;Prices for the penthouse collection range from $4.25 million to $5.5 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102451 project_image_fid=186078]

The brief shelf life of Hirsch and Faigen product has become a family narrative across the coast, after the developer notched successive sell-outs in its first two forays onto the Gold Coast &ndash; in Hemingway Palm Beach and Emerson Kirra.

&ldquo;Given the rate with which apartments have been purchased to date, we expect the remaining apartments to sell out fast,&rdquo;&nbsp;Jokovich added.

Yves will feature an array of residents only amenities, which will feature a&nbsp;20-metre lap pool, children&rsquo;s garden, fully equipped gym and yoga studio, wellness spa and sauna, as well as a private rooftop sky lounge and wine bar.

[smartcode_project_cta: project_id=102451]

It’s been a phenomenon driven by local buyers, with a vast majority of Yves purchasers coming from within a 50-kilometre radius of Mermaid Beach.

Mirvac has officially launched the latest residential offering at its&nbsp;racecourse-fronting Ascot Green community in Brisbane.

Charlton House, which has been fast tracked due to sales success in the first two stages, Tulloch House&nbsp;and Ascot House, will have over 100 apartments across its 13 levels.

There will be&nbsp;one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments, as well as a a limited collection of three and four-bedroom villas.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108351 project_image_fid=194811]

Two-bedroom and two-bathroom apartments start from $755,000, while the four premium villas, integrated into the first levels of Charlton House, are a first for the Ascot Green community.

Designed by Mirvac Design, Charlton House also features a rooftop sanctuary, with a private dining room taking in Brisbane city skyline views, lounge areas and extensive subtropical landscaping, along with a gym and resort-style pool on the ground level overlooking the racecourse.

Charlton House is the third building to be released by Mirvac at Ascot Green and is part of Brisbane Racing Club&rsquo;s $1.2 billion masterplan redevelopment of Eagle Farm, to include apartments, commercial offices, a new shopping and dining precinct and a range of entertainment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108351 project_image_fid=194814]

Brisbane City Council approved the development application for the $131 million, 13-level building in late December.

Mirvac General Manager, Residential Queensland, Warwick Bible said the group had worked to bring the apartments to market as soon as possible, with enquiries continuing to race in following the sell-out of its second building, Tulloch House, in July last year.

&ldquo;There were a number of people who missed out on securing their place in Tulloch House who have been eagerly awaiting this next release and we&rsquo;ve continued to field new enquiries from those wanting to join the community,&rdquo; he said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108351 project_image_fid=194813]

&ldquo;Demand for quality apartments in blue-chip Brisbane locations such as this have grown exponentially over the past six months, and we anticipate apartments in Charlton House will sell quickly as a result.&rdquo;

Bible said about 60 per cent of buyers in the first two stages &ndash; Ascot House and Tulloch House &ndash; had moved from the directly surrounding suburbs such as Ascot, Hamilton and Clayfield, with Charlton House expected to be no different.

&nbsp;

Charlton House&#39;s design has been guided by the &lsquo;Buildings that Breathe&rsquo; vision and Brisbane&rsquo;s subtropical climate. Its architects describe it as a re-imagining of the classic Queenslander and Ascot aesthetic, with light-filled spaces that can be opened and closed to capture sunshine and breezes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108351 project_image_fid=179497]

&ldquo;The apartments and villas blend timeless refinement, style and sophistication, with lush greenery and a comforting feeling of home, which is a cornerstone of the design,&rdquo; Bible added.

&ldquo;More than 50 hectares of green space, including the racecourse, lay at the doorstep, giving residents the feeling they are in their own private sanctuary, while the Brisbane CBD and so many fantastic restaurants, cafes and shops are close by. It is the epitome of the best of both worlds.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project_cta: project_id=108351]

Two-bedroom and two-bathroom apartments start from $755,000, while the four premium villas, integrated into the first levels of Charlton House, are a first for the Ascot Green community.

Supply keeps on coming in the sought-after Broadbeach for high-end, luxury apartments.

The latest development application in Broadbeach is for a 20-level tower of just full floor and double-storey apartments at 39 Brittania&nbsp;Avenue.

Architecture firm TVS has created the plans for a local developer who secured the 607 sqm site last year, paying $2.58 million for an original 1970s home.

Dubbed Monarch, the tower will have 15&nbsp;full-floor apartments, one one and a half floor sub-penthouse, and a two-level penthouse.

<a href="/new-apartments/monarch-39-britannia-avenue-broadbeach"><img alt="" height="782" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-04_at_9.09.02_am.png" width="1138" /></a>

Each of the full-floor apartments will have four bedrooms. The sub-penthouse, which covers one and a half levels, will also have four bedrooms, two downstairs and two upstairs. The upper level will have&nbsp;a semi-enclosed dining area, an outdoor dining area, which adjoins the outdoor kitchen, and a private spa.

The penthouse spans levels 19 and 20 and will have a feature curved staircase up to the rooftop where there will be a master suite with full dressing room and ensuite and a&nbsp;multi purpose room. The plans have two outdoor areas, one with a feature tree and day bed, the other the main space complete with an infinity edge pool, outdoor kitchen and dining space.

A resident gym, sauna, and steam room will be located on the first level, as will the communal swimming pool, spa, outdoor kitchen and dining area, and cinema room.

&quot;The development aims to capture coastal breezes and will enjoy natural daylight into northern living spaces and Eastern oriented bedrooms,&quot; TVS noted in their design statement submitted to the Gold Coast City Council.

&quot;The development has overcome the constraints of a tight site by providing a high quality architectural outcome, featuring large zones of resident&#39;s private and common amenity and car parking.

&quot;The proposed building is represented by a simplicity and elegance of form that is attractive and fitting for the character of the Broadbeach precinct.

<a href="/new-apartments/monarch-39-britannia-avenue-broadbeach"><img alt="" height="752" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-04_at_9.23.05_am.png" width="1086" /></a>

&quot;The architecture is complimented by high quality landscaping on the ground plane, in addition to selected key community focused levels, where planting will contribute to the external building form.&quot;

Broadbeach has been a popular spot for high-end, full-floor apartments in recent months.

Demand was high for Aperture, the Broadbeach project by the Melbourne developer Little Projects. They were offering just 29 apartments across its 35 levels.

Sydney-based luxury developer Sammut Group has signed Australia&rsquo;s largest builder Multiplex to construct its debut Gold Coast development, the $200 million absolute beachfront, COAST, at Garfield Terrace.

COAST will rise on a prime beachfront site at 43 Garfield Terrace with construction scheduled to start this month following the appointment of Multiplex.

It&#39;s going to be a big year for both developers and buyers on Surfers Paradise&#39;s luxury beachfront strip.

Local developer Frank Developments, headed by Frank Licastro,&nbsp;will be bringing&nbsp;MIRA, a huge tower designed for the high-end owner-occupier, to&nbsp;61 Garfield Terrace, offering some of the biggest apartments on the Gold Coast.

The skinny 32-level tower, designed by Ferro Chow Architects will have just 14 apartments, each spanning two levels. A mega penthouse will crown the top four levels.

In their design statement submitted to the Gold Coast City Council, Ferro Chow said MIRA&nbsp;is a unique and exclusively boutique residential project.

<a href="/new-apartments/mira-61-garfield-terrace-surfers-paradise-qld-4217"><img alt="" height="1010" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-03-31_at_7.12.21_pm.png" width="1686" /></a>

&quot;The name MIRA translates to many things and drawn from many origins. These elements are expressed in the architecture, which is a statement of quality contemporary detailing, sophisticated in styling and responding to local context. It adopts innovation in designing with technology and sustainable outcomes. MIRA is as unique as it is timeless.&quot;

Each of the two level apartments will have four bedrooms, one on the lower level, set at the rear of the wing, privately away from the main living, kitchen and dining space.&nbsp;

Upstairs is a further three bedrooms, one being a master retreat with a walk in wardrobe and ensuite. All of the four bedrooms will have ensuites.

<a href="/developments/chevron-island-qld-4217">Chevron Island</a>&nbsp;has undergone a full regeneration, with buyers descending on the village-style island just off across the bridge from the lifestyle and entertainment hub of Surfers Paradise.

Since the opening of the new $60 million arts precinct HOTA (Home of The Arts), Australia's largest regional art gallery, Chevron Island has well and truly been in the spotlight, both for developers, who are seeking to creating apartments on the limited land on the island, and buyers who want to live the quiet village, community-driven lifestyle, while still being within touching distance of Surfers Paradise.

Urban has taken a look at some of the best apartments currently for sale on Chevron Island.

<h2>Orama</h2>

<h2>Developer: Aniko Group</h2>

The site is also located on the sought-after eastern side of Chevron Island, which makes it just a short 950 metre walk over the bridge to the heart of Surfers Paradise.

There will be 102 apartments in the tower, six units per floor on the lower levels comprising two-bed, two-bath units with a study, and most with two car parks. Prices start from $795,000.

On the higher levels there are three-bedroom skyhomes and two penthouses.

Plus Architecture has designed the tower, noting in their submission that they&nbsp;always design with the intent to produce buildings that are not only beautiful, but considered, functional and lasting.

<h2>Tapestry</h2>

The top three Chevron Island apartment developments on the market

The Gold Coast apartment market is continuing to see elevated demand.

The property data house, Urbis, noted in their&nbsp;Q4 2021 market report that Gold Coast growth outstripped Sydney over the past two years, growing 14 per cent from 2020 to 2021, compared to Sydney&#39;s 11 per cent.

Apartments prices on the Gold Coat have jumped over 20 per cent since 2019.

Pezet Matheson Director Todd Matheson says there very much still plenty of demand for apartments on the Gold Coast, there&#39;s just a few less project launches as developers seek to be in the most stable position as possible before launching.

&quot;What we&#39;re now seeing is developers getting all of their ducks in a row before launching their project,&quot; Matheson said.

We&#39;ve wrapped up what&#39;s happened on the Gold Coast in March.

<h2>Drew Group start taking sales at&nbsp;Lagoon Main Beach</h2>

The longstanding South East Queensland developer,&nbsp;Drew Group, is already started to attract a lot of interest at&nbsp;their landmark Main Beach apartment development, Lagoon Main Beach.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=193023]

The first tower to launch in the&nbsp;dual-tower development, in the heart of Main Beach at 11-23&nbsp;Cronin Avenue, is Sunrise Tower, which will comprise&nbsp;148 apartments of the total 259&nbsp;apartments on offer. Sunrise Tower is the larger tower, at 33 levels.

Jonathan Drew, who heads up the developer&nbsp;Drew Group, says locals were at the forefront of his thinking during the design process.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=190743]

&ldquo;As a local I feel an overwhelming responsibility to deliver an outstanding result for the Main Beach community and the future residents of Lagoon and this notion will be the central focus throughout the project until future residents move in,&quot; Drew said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109905 project_image_fid=184886]

Coolangatta&#39;s Rainbow Bay area has arguably been the hottest proposition for apartment seekers since the pandemic drove the masses toward the Gold Coast.

Local and interstate buyers were swooping on anything that came on to the market, and even before then, with a number of developers securing sell outs before the general public could even enquire.

Chapter Two,&nbsp;a development group led by Jon Quayle and Oliver Bagheri, in collaboration with Summa Group, identified a gap in the market with their newly approved Eden Avenue project, Holm.

Gold Coast apartment insights: What happened on the Gold Coast in March?

The redevelopment of the Kirra Beach Hotel, the large scale&nbsp;project by the luxury apartment developer and hotel operator, KTQ, is set to be delivered well ahead of schedule.

Rather than delivering the vast project in four stages, KTQ, led by Peggy Flannery, will be delivering the development as a single and final stage, which will bring forward project completion by three years.

KTQ has made tweaks to the plans, added a floor of commercial space and another level of hotel rooms, taking it to a 92-room hotel. There will be another two levels of apartments in the second residential tower, which will see a further 13 apartments and 14 hotel rooms added.

<img alt="" height="862" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/kirra_point_whole.jpg" width="1200" />

The resort pool and bar has moved to the rooftop on Level 6, and the pool and recreation facilities for the second&nbsp;residential tower is also on the rooftop &ndash; level 13.

KTQ saw huge demand for stage one of the project, Miles Residences, which saw all 118 apartments&nbsp;snapped up within just a few months.

That saw construction of Miles Residences, as well as the new pub and pavilion that will replaced to original Kirra Beach Hotel, fast-tracked.

The project is now well underway, with demolition, excavation, and ground work commenced.

<a href="/buildings/miles-kirra-beach-hotel-101-musgrave-street-coolangatta"><img alt="" height="1066" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/_g1a2346-x311.jpg" width="1600" /></a>

&quot;We have been working with&nbsp;Mark Damant&nbsp;and the team at&nbsp;Little Boat Projects, alongside&nbsp;nettletontribe&nbsp;and&nbsp;Urbis, on this reimagined people-first precinct, with stage one&nbsp;already under construction,&quot; KTQ Development Director, Jeremy Holmes, said.

&quot;We can&#39;t wait to see this all come together.&quot;

Damant says the precinct laneways, with extensive retail, will offer &quot;something for everyone.&quot;

<a href="/buildings/miles-kirra-beach-hotel-101-musgrave-street-coolangatta"><img alt="" height="896" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/kirra_miles_2.jpg" width="1200" /></a>

There will be another opportunity to buy in the sought-after precinct later this year, with&nbsp;a second residential building with resident amenity on the roof, to hit the market in the summer.

The well regarded building firm, Hutchinsons,&nbsp;are handling the construction of the development, which is set to be the go-to spot just off the sand.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;re on the cusp of a renaissance for&nbsp;Kirra Beach&nbsp;that will deliver an exciting new destination in its own right where locals and visitors will be able to live&nbsp;work and play,&rdquo; Holmes added.

<img alt="" height="800" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/kirra_point_front.jpg" width="1200" />

&ldquo;Our plans have drawn on the history of the site that for generations was the social heart of the southern Gold Coast.

&ldquo;The incredible market response to our first-stage release affirms our faith in our vision for the site which will be delivered over the next few years.&rdquo;

KTQ saw huge demand for stage one of the project, Miles Residences, which saw all 118 apartments snapped up within just a few months
