<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mayd-group">MAYD Group</a> has set a new residential price record in Queensland with the $30 million sale of the penthouse at its <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/one-burleigh-88-the-esplanade-burleigh-heads-qld-4220">ONE Burleigh</a> development in Burleigh Heads.

The sale equates to around $37,500 per sqm.

The two-level, 800 sqm penthouse, featuring five bedrooms, five bathrooms, five car spaces, and a private infinity pool overlooking the Pacific Ocean, was acquired by a Gold Coast-based entrepreneur, highlighting continued demand for ultra-premium beachfront product.

Selling agent Freddie Tehle of PRD Burleigh Heads said the result reflects tightening supply of high-quality, large-format apartments in Burleigh.

“There’s very limited opportunity to secure this level of scale and absolute beachfront position in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/burleigh-heads-qld-4220">Burleigh Heads</a>,” Tehle said.

“Buyers are increasingly seeking apartments that genuinely replace a standalone home, and this penthouse delivers that with its size, privacy, and direct ocean frontage.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146358 project_image_fid=323057]

The sale comes as construction progresses on ONE Burleigh, a boutique development of 17 full-floor residences at 88 The Esplanade, scheduled for completion in early 2027.

Developed by MAYD Group and designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/mas-architecture-studio">MAS Architecture</a> with interiors by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/interior-designers/sici-design">Sici Design</a>, the project has been positioned as a collection of house-sized beachfront apartments, each occupying an entire floor with around 381 sqm of internal and external living space.

When construction commenced, MAYD director Todd Mould pointed to the long-term resilience of premium coastal real estate as a key driver behind the project.

“Real estate, particularly at the premium end, remains one of the most resilient and proven long-term investment avenues,” Mould said.

“Our ambition is that anyone who buys a MAYD-built product can genuinely feel the care, craftsmanship and commitment we bring to every detail.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146358 project_image_fid=323055]

Each residence has been configured with four bedrooms, multiple living zones, a private office, and expansive ocean-facing terraces. Interiors draw on a restrained material palette, including travertine stone, timber joinery, and integrated premium appliances.

Interior designer Sici Design said the approach was to reflect the project’s coastal setting through both materiality and spatial planning.

“ONE Burleigh is our vision of luxury living, designed to bring the essence of Burleigh Heads' vibrant coastal beauty into an unparalleled residential experience.”

Residents will have access to a suite of wellness-focused amenities, including pools, sauna facilities, and dedicated relaxation spaces, reflecting a broader shift toward lifestyle-driven apartment design on the Gold Coast.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146358 project_image_fid=323052]

The project occupies a southern Esplanade site with uninterrupted beachfront frontage, an increasingly rare offering in Burleigh Heads, free from the Norfolk Pines that line much of the coastline and often limit direct ocean outlook.

Mould said the design intent was to balance that outlook with a sense of retreat.

“Living at ONE Burleigh is about how your day naturally unfolds, morning light across the ocean, coffee on the balcony, and being in Burleigh but elevated above the noise.”

The result further reinforces Burleigh Heads’ emergence as one of the Gold Coast’s most tightly held and supply-constrained beachfront markets, where boutique, owner-occupier-focused developments are increasingly setting new price benchmarks.

&nbsp;

Located at 32 Carrington Road, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/castle-hill-nsw-2154">Castle Hill</a> and designed by award-winning architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/ptw">PTW</a>, Lily Lane is directly opposite the Hills Showground Metro station.

“Developments of this calibre are very rare in the Hills District, and Lily Lane’s sales success demonstrates the depth of demand for over-sized apartments that genuinely compete with freestanding homes," Schulze says.

"We are seeing particular demand from downsizers who want to remain in the area but transition into spacious, high-quality apartment living."

On the penthouse sale, it says it shows buyers&nbsp;are prepared to pay a premium for scale, quality, and direct access to the Metro.

Ellipse sets Castle Hill apartment record with $5.75 million Lily Lane penthouse sale

Developer-builder <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/billbergia">Billbergia</a> has set a new apartment price record for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/rhodes-nsw-2138">Rhodes</a>, a suburb the company has been instrumental in transforming over the past two decades.

The milestone follows the delivery of thousands of apartments across the harbourside peninsula, culminating in the $4.5 million sale of a 220 sqm penthouse in the <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/rhodes-central-oasis-39-marquet-street-rhodes-nsw-2138">Rhodes Central Oasis</a> building, which Billbergia completed earlier this year. It is the first apartment in Rhodes to surpass not only the $4 million mark for settled sales, but also the $3 million mark, eclipsing the previous $2.75 million record set in 2021.

The purchaser had originally secured several apartments in the 40-storey tower off the plan as investments. During settlement, she spent more time in the Rhodes area and was so impressed with the building that she decided to downsize from her Northbridge home into the four-bedroom plus MPR penthouse.

The sale underscores the long-term work Billbergia has undertaken in Rhodes since the early 2000s. The company, rated 4.5 Gold Stars under the NSW iCIRT system, identifying it as one of the state’s most trustworthy and financially secure developers, was a pioneer of the area’s urban renewal. What was once a heavily industrial waterfront has become one of Sydney’s most successful examples of transit-oriented development.

<img alt="Billbergia" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="56093d7f-db18-42f4-bf9b-115bdf76f5f3" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-11-26%20at%2011.10.06%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=pca77Mr.H83nwXbJexmaLUAqBewtQ7d9" />

Billbergia is now driving the peninsula’s next major evolution: the most ambitious project in its nearly four-decade history. They are planning the Rhodes Bay Masterplan, an eight-tower, mixed-use precinct on Leeds Street. Currently with the NSW Government’s Housing Delivery Authority which is now championing large-scale projects across the state, the Rhodes Bay Masterplan lays the groundwork for a generational reshaping of this important pocket of Sydney’s Inner West.

The masterplan spans more than 31,000 sqm of amalgamated industrial land along the foreshore, land that has been privately held and inaccessible to the community for more than a century. According to Billbergia’s Development Director, Saul Moran, reclaiming this land for public use is central to the company’s vision. 
 
“What’s so exciting is that we have over 300 metres of privately-held industrialised waterfront, land that’s been locked away for more than 100 years, which we’re bringing back to the community,” he says. “It’s taken many years to assemble sites like these, and the goal now is to transform them into meaningful public space where new homes can be built in an integrated, amenity-rich setting.”

At full completion, the Rhodes Bay Masterplan is expected to deliver over 2000 apartments, with the first 1000 to be completed by 2029. Billbergia’s design focused on nine slender towers, so they could give back more to the ground plane. There will be more than 16,000sq m of new parkland and recreation space, including sports fields, a foreshore play area and waterfront green links. Around 14,600 sqm of retail is also proposed, extending the precinct’s role as a true mixed-use hub.

<img alt="Rhodes Bay" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="240ffc41-4f26-421a-9606-5c56f6fc2d93" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-11-26%20at%2011.05.48%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=BkBxZr7S8CAt1vgNa8AF3zjdc3YuVh0L" />

“Density only works when it’s paired with amenity, transport and open space, and that’s what’s made Rhodes such an amazing success story,” Moran says, adding that the demographic shift Billbergia has seen over the last two decades has informed their future development pipeline in the suburb.

“Rhodes has moved from being largely an investor market to a strong owner-occupier community,” Moran says. “There’s real demand for three-bedroom homes, flexible intergenerational layouts, and apartments people can grow into.”

&nbsp;“We’re designing taller, more slender towers to free up the ground level for sport, recreation and green space. High-density communities thrive when people have the best backyards in Australia, and that’s what we want to create here.”

Demand remains robust, evidenced by Billbergia’s recent results. “We achieved a record sale across the entirety of Rhodes Central just last week,” Moran says. “It shows the depth of confidence buyers have in what’s being built here.”

Billbergia’s vertically integrated model allows them to overcome the recent cost escalation and challenges in the build environment. “Having an in-house construction team lets us control feasibility, value management and quality from day one,” Moran says. “It’s critical in the current market, where construction escalation is at the forefront of every project’s viability.”

The company is also leveraging the NSW Government’s new Housing Delivery Authority process, which Moran describes as a more efficient pathway without compromising design standards. 
 
“We’re really applauding the NSW Government for its efforts to increase housing supply. There’s been a remarkable improvement in how they’re helping deliver more homes, more quickly.”

Billbergia has already commenced construction of Stage One of the Rhodes Bay masterplan. They will be lodging the State Significant Development Application before Christmas.

“We’re moving quickly, but with due care,” Moran says. “This is a generational precinct, and it needs to be done right.”

Billbergia smashes suburb record as Rhodes transformation continues

&nbsp;

A local Australian has spent a Lower North Shore record $15.1 million at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/elevate-hume-place-crows-nest-25-hume-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Elevate Hume Place</a>, the new TOD above the recently opened Crows Nest Metro Station.

The buyer amalgamated a penthouse and sub-penthouse to create the triplex apartment that will have five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a private rooftop pool, expansive terrace, and panoramic views of Sydney Harbour and skyline. The building is being created by burgeoning developer Third.i, alongside joint venture partner Phoenix Property Investors.

The buyer was drawn to Elevate’s unrivalled connectivity, situated directly above the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/crows-nest-nsw-2065">Crows Nest</a> Metro Station, and the vibrant lifestyle precinct that surrounds it. The Metro connects to the CBD in just seven minutes, and Chatswood in four.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142550 project_image_fid=309367]

Designed by internationally acclaimed architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a>, Elevate draws inspiration from the ancient blue gum forests native to the area. The building is a Net Zero development, created in consultation with Indigenous communities and exceeding sustainability benchmarks. Interiors feature chevron-engineered timber flooring, natural stone benchtops, and premium Sub-Zero Wolf appliances, delivering timeless elegance and next-level comfort.

The exchange of the $15.1 million apartment, follows a recent $5 million sale, and over $30 million currently in expressions of interests. Interest in Elevate’s penthouse stock has surged, reflecting a strong appetite for ultra-luxury residences that combine design excellence with unmatched connectivity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142550 project_image_fid=309369]

“We’re seeing a significant uptick in interest from local and international buyers who are prioritising connectivity, sustainability, and lifestyle,” said Callum Billinghurst, Head of Sales at Third.i Group.&nbsp;

“These recent sales are a testament to the vision behind Elevate. It’s not just about luxury finishes or panoramic views, it’s about creating homes that are deeply connected to the city and the community. Buyers are responding to that. They want to live somewhere that offers more than just a postcode, they want culture, convenience, and long-term value. Elevate delivers all of that, and more.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142550 project_image_fid=297878]

As part of the Hume Place precinct, Elevate is transforming Crows Nest into Sydney’s most dynamic urban village. Elevate’s unique position directly above the metro, combined with its curated amenity offering, has made it a magnet for buyers seeking a future-proof investment and a vibrant urban lifestyle.

The next release at Elevate is expected later this year.

In a record-breaking deal that underscores the strength of the Gold Coast luxury market, Queensland developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sherpa-property-group">Sherpa Property Group</a> has shattered the Chevron Island price record with the $10 million-plus off the plan sale of a penthouse at its <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/perspective-helm-107-stanhill-drive-chevron-island-qld-4217">Perspective Helm</a> development.&nbsp;

With Penthouse 10 now sold, only Penthouse 9 remains available in the boutique block of 10.

The record-breaking sale surpasses the previous <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/chevron-island-qld-4217">Chevron Island</a> high of $9 million, achieved by the Chevron One penthouse in 2022.&nbsp;

The buyers of Penthouse 10 are private residents from Brisbane.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143018 project_image_fid=313578]

Sherpa’s founder Christie Leet said the sale reinforces the scale, exclusivity, and prestige of Perspective Helm, located in one of the Gold Coast’s most tightly held waterfront precincts.

“We’ve seen strong momentum for sales at Perspective Helm, with 90% of residences now sold, and to have secured a contract on one of the penthouses is a significant milestone,” said Leet.

“This result not only reflects the extraordinary calibre of Perspective Helm but also demonstrates ongoing buyer confidence and the robust demand for premium property across the Gold Coast.”

Leet said releasing Penthouse 9 to the market represents a rare chance to secure one of the most significant residences ever delivered on Chevron Island.&nbsp;

“It’s the last opportunity to own a residence of this calibre in what is arguably one of the most coveted waterfront addresses on the Gold Coast,” said Leet.&nbsp;

“We don’t expect Penthouse 9 to remain available for long; there is nothing comparable on the market right now.”&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Penthouse 9, priced at $9.99 million,&nbsp;spans 793 sqm across two levels. It will have four bedrooms and four bathrooms, as well as a powder room, a cinema, a multipurpose room, and a four-car lock-up garage. There is also a 60-foot private Marina Berth included.&nbsp;

Designed for upscale entertaining, the penthouses boast indoor and outdoor living spaces, featuring a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, barbecue, private pool, pizza oven, and fire pit.

&nbsp;

“Every detail of these penthouses has been meticulously crafted to offer an indulgent lifestyle, where effortless luxury meets serene sophistication,” Leet added. &nbsp;

Perspective Helm is currently under construction and is scheduled to be completed in October 2025.

Over half of the apartments in SP Setia's Atlas skyscraper have been snapped up before the project launch.

The new tower, at the northern end of La Trobe Street, has been designed by Cox Architecture and Fender Katsalidis and is Setia's&nbsp;fourth project in the CBD, following the success of Sapphire by the Gardens, UNO Melbourne, and Fulton Lane.

The heritage-listed wall of the former Royal Mint forms the backdrop to the contemporary porte-cochere, forming a striking contrast to the 72-level tower.&nbsp;

Atlas will feature&nbsp;852 apartments, from studios through to three-bedroom residences, starting at $410,000.

<img alt="Atlas Melbourne" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="f4c50513-ae45-4149-8ca6-0e94dec0e373" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/240925_Level%2072_Library.jpg?VersionId=LCAlVvC3OQ0j6fzz4NzrS998OXBSfCqW" />

Tim Storey, Managing Director, Victoria | Residential at Colliers, said Atlas is a very rare proposition.

“Atlas is the last building in this pocket of the city to be granted a permit for this volume of units, as the permit was obtained back in 2017. Since then, new height restrictions have come into effect, and no other super-skyscrapers of this size will be built in the CBD.”&nbsp;

He says the reason they have been able to sell more than half of the apartments in a short amount of time is that the development ticks all the boxes.

"Not only is the location right, the amenities are right, the design is right, but most importantly, the product is right.&nbsp;The development also caters to a wide range of buyer profiles. We haven’t seen many studio &nbsp;apartments in recent new developments, but as a way to address affordability and the growing &nbsp;demand for city living, the development will house 189 studio apartments, which are already sold out, and we now have a waiting list.”&nbsp;

The tower is divided into three bespoke residential offerings: Garden Residences on levels 1-7, &nbsp;Horizon Residences across levels 9-49, and Sky Crown Residences on levels 50-70.

<img alt="Atlas Melbourne" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="0e937e56-e4b7-400f-b950-886752d79883" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/240917_Pool%20view%20level%208_0.jpg?VersionId=uMoDCs2t1JvMXwVtxiYZB.8V8.0gEZEc" />

Philip Rowe, Director at Cox Architecture, said throughout the building, there are strong connections to nature and greenery.

“It’s a vertical village that includes the Sky Club on levels 71 and 72, and the Horizon Collective on levels 42, which features a music room, cinema, &nbsp;game area, karaoke lounge, terrace, and more. Level 8 is dedicated to a Wellness Club, offering a gymnasium, spa, sauna, pool, and open green space."

&nbsp;

Construction is set to commence in Q3 2025, with completion expected to take place in mid-2029.

Design-led property developer <a href="/developers/orchard-piper">Orchard Piper</a>, together with joint venture partner NPACT, has broken the record for the most expensive apartment sale in Toorak at their freshly launched new apartment development, <a href="/new-apartments/one-toorak-place-7-19-carters-avenue-toorak-vic-3142">One Toorak Place</a>.

Australian retail executive Daniel Agostinelli and his wife Lynette have spent more than $20 million on the penthouse in the heart of Toorak Village. The sale comes after the successful sale of the sub-penthouses at another Orchard Piper project - Toorak Village&nbsp; - which is currently under construction with Cobuild, for records of more than $11.5 million in May 2024, each exceeding $38,000 per sqm.

Located on Carters Avenue,&nbsp;<a href="/new-apartments/one-toorak-place-7-19-carters-avenue-toorak-vic-3142">One Toorak Place</a> is set to revitalise Toorak Village with a mixed-use offering comprising 47 apartments, commercial suites, and a curated retail and hospitality precinct — all centred around a new private laneway.

As Toorak’s first hotel-style serviced building, the project introduces a new model of lifestyle-focused living, akin to internationally recognised branded residences.

Residents will enjoy a suite of hotel-style services and amenities, including concierge, private car transfers and on-site security, alongside an extensive wellness offering featuring a 25-metre pool, gymnasium, sauna, steam room, cold plunge, spa and treatment room. In addition, residents will have access to a dedicated lounge, meeting rooms, a golf simulator, and practical facilities such as dog-washing and a car-wash bay.

Agostinelli, Group CEO of Accent Group Limited, has followed the developer’s work for over a decade, with the penthouse marking his first purchase.

The house-proportioned apartment comes with five bedrooms, an eight-car private garage, direct lift access to a private lobby, a 1000-bottle cellar, and private wellness facilities, including a pool and spa set across 560 sqm of outdoor terraces and gardens, framed by expansive views of the Melbourne city skyline.

Orchard Piper Director Luke McKie says opportunities of this calibre are incredibly rare, not just in Toorak, but anywhere in Australia.

“The penthouses at <a href="/new-apartments/one-toorak-place-7-19-carters-avenue-toorak-vic-3142">One Toorak Place</a> are designed to offer all the qualities of a fine luxury home, with the added security, privacy and views that only penthouse living can provide," Mckie said.

Orchard Piper Director Rick Gronow added, “To close such a significant sale ahead of launch speaks volumes about the strength of the precinct and the market’s appetite for thoughtfully designed, premium residences in Toorak Village.”

Agostinelli said the decision to purchase was driven by Orchard Piper’s consistent commitment to quality over the past decade.

“I’ve known Rick Gronow and Orchard Piper for a long time," Agostinelli said.

"My wife Lynette and I trust their quality, which made us comfortable buying off the plan. Their work speaks for itself, and this project takes it to a new level. <a href="/new-apartments/one-toorak-place-7-19-carters-avenue-toorak-vic-3142">One Toorak Place</a> stood out to us as a unique chance to live privately while still enjoying the kind of services and experiences you’d normally only find in a five-star hotel. It’s something we haven’t seen in Toorak or Melbourne at this level before and we are very excited about the project."

To complement the residential offering, Orchard Piper has partnered with acclaimed restaurateur Chris Lucas to deliver a new hospitality benchmark in luxury living – a ground-floor dining precinct paired with exclusive in-residence experience. From all-day dining to private catering, cellar services, and events, residents enjoy seamless access to Melbourne’s most iconic hospitality, all curated by the team behind restaurants like Society and Grill Americano.

“This is about more than great food,” said Chris Lucas. “It’s about bringing the spirit of our restaurants into the home — creating a seamless lifestyle that celebrates design, connection and the joy of exceptional hospitality.”

“Uninterrupted views of the harbour and city skyline is a big drawcard for buyers, along with the proximity to Woollahra, <a href="/developments/bondi-junction-nsw-2022">Bondi Junction</a> and Centennial Park across the road.”

“The Centennial Collection finishes are extremely luxurious. There’s a winter pool and a year-round rooftop pool, a concierge and wellness hub; it really is a luxury experience.”

Bo said the apartments had been consistently achieving record prices for the area since the project was launched.

On the fringe of Centennial Park,&nbsp;<a href="/new-apartments/the-centennial-collection-east-sydney-2-nelson-street-bondi-junction">The Centennial Collection</a>&nbsp;comprises just 73 one, two and three-bedroom apartments across two 10-level buildings designed by SJB.

The first release of the apartments last year were snapped up in a matter of weeks, part due to the architectural designs by SJB, part due to the rarity of a new project so close to the convenience of Bondi Junction, the beauty of Centennial Park, and the vibrancy of Woollahra's Queen Street.

Communal facilities in the building will include a rooftop pool with outdoor dining and entertaining spaces as well as an indoor ‘winter’ pool. There's also a concierge, cold and dry goods delivery rooms and a wellness hub including a cardio and personal training area. The building will also have EV charging stations and storage for all residences.

<a href="/project-marketer/ray-white-projects">Ray White Projects</a>&nbsp;Managing Partner, Eddie Mansour, said with construction well underway, buyers are becoming increasingly interested in the building.

“Stargate Property Group are one of the leading developers and builders in Sydney’s East and has created a genuine legacy, having built over 20 projects in the local area.

“Locals are transitioning out of big traditional family homes, to a spacious residence that they can lock up and leave.

“Buyers are wanting a lifestyle change and are becoming more fluid in where they want to live. With construction well underway, buyers can plan out their relocation and lifestyle change in advance. It gives them time to prepare their family home for sale and to align it with the completion of The Centennial Collection.”

Centennial Collection apartments continue to break records

AYA Penthouse, the largest single-level apartment in Bondi Beach, has just been sold for around $22 million, just a few weeks before its completion.

The four-bedroom, 353 sqm penthouse designed by world-renowned architect Koichi Takada, was sold by Eddie Mansour of Ray White Projects and Jeremy Wiesner of Wiesner Property, with Mansour saying the sale represents the highest price achieved for a&nbsp;non-beachfront facing apartment.

Wiesner said every square metre of the penthouse "goes above and beyond."

"The indoor/outdoor living areas, enhanced by Takada’s signature touches, were a major drawcard for buyers."

The AYA Penthouse sits atop Aqualine, a boutique block of just 12 apartments at 45 Hall Street, developed by Moshav Financial.

Tal Silberman, group managing director of Moshav, said that he was incredibly proud of their group’s development, setting a new benchmark for luxury property.

“AYA Penthouse epitomises coastal luxury with its iconic location and innovative design,"&nbsp;Silberman said.

"This record-breaking sale is testament to the desirability of Bondi Beach and the appetite for truly magnificent design."

Buyers agent Will Roberts from Alsaker negotiated the sale on behalf of the Eastern Suburbs buyer.

Construction firm Lord Group is currently completing the final stages of the development.

AYA Penthouse, Bondi Beach's largest single-level apartment sells for around $22 million

Developer James Place has set the Penrith apartment price record, selling one of its penthouses for $5.5 million in its new apartment development, Perle.

Perle,&nbsp;located in the emerging East Side Quarter (ESQ) neighbourhood of&nbsp;<a href="/developments/penrith-nsw-2750">Penrith</a>, comprises 173 apartments, penthouses and terraces, and is anchored by a 1000 sqm lakefront dining precinct.

The rooftop features an infinity pool, a state-of-the-art wellness centre, private gardens, a hotel-like concierge service, and a private dining room for residents.

Former Penrith Mayor and long-term Councillor, Tricia Hitchen, who has bought an apartment in Perle, says the $200 million development is "reshaping the Penrith community and changing the way in which we can live."

Perle is the fourth of five stages of the ESQ, following the sell out of the first three stages One Eastside, Aqua, and Eden.

Perle has been designed by&nbsp;<a href="/architects/turner-studio">Turner Studio</a> and <a href="/architects/bayley-ward">Bayley Ward</a>&nbsp;and offers one, two and three-bedroom apartments with balconies and terraces designed for outdoor dining.

<img alt="Penrith waterfront development Perle" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="599af40d-db14-483f-bbc5-3bd84df4ac9a" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/James%20Place_Perle_The%20Residences.jpg?VersionId=ifLxop_gL75o_sBrCC6NKSXswTP1U9dc" />

The apartments are expected to attract interest from first home buyers, investors and downsizers who will have access to all that the project has to offer.

Andrew James, Founder and Managing Director of James Place Group, said James Place&nbsp;is committed to creating vibrant, mixed-use communities that redefine modern living.

"Our aim with Perle is to transform urban spaces into places that foster community connection, innovation, and well-being," James said.

"With its exceptional design, world-class amenities and a dedicated onsite team, Perle is set to become a landmark in Penrith, offering residents a unique lifestyle experience with everything on their doorstep. We hope to offer not just a place to live, but a vibrant neighbourhood that residents and the Penrith community can be proud of.”&nbsp;

Ahead of launch, James Place held an off-market tower release of 20 sky homes within the development called ‘The Residences’.

Designed to be personally customised for each purchaser, these properties also offer expansive wrap-around views, an entertaining bar, butlers’ kitchens and high-end V-ZUG appliances. All but three have been sold, with the largest penthouse purchased by a local businessman for a record $5.5 million.

Perle also houses ‘The Collection’ which features three townhouses and five rooftop penthouses.&nbsp;

<img alt="Penrith waterfront development Perle masterplan" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="94114fa0-7d8a-4f05-9a99-9c700a5d3758" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/James%20Place_Perle_A01_Aerial_Masterplan.jpg?VersionId=SYAHRP381tNgsnZHtwVJYozTfEOdoU_7" />

Perle is part of the larger ESQ master plan located on the Panthers precinct, which has been designed to enhance the quality of life for its residents and contribute positively to the community. Conceived by Cabe, the ESQ masterplan is already home for residents of the first two stages, One East Side and Aqua, and the third stage EDEN is currently under construction with Astina Group.&nbsp;

“The ESQ development is a project for the government to take note of," James added.

"It’s a case study for the delivery of high quality and much needed housing in Western Sydney with high demand from key workers, such as first responders and nurses, along with investors, first homebuyers and aspirational downsizers. These developments are transforming Penrith into a lifestyle and residential hub with lakeside dining, entertainment, shopping, and art installations.”&nbsp;

Construction of Perle is set to begin in 2024, and completion is slated for the end of 2026, in time for the opening of Western Sydney’s new airport. Perle will create over 1,000 new construction jobs, further boosting the local economy and delivering in-demand housing.&nbsp;

“With this week’s announcement that Singapore Airlines will be taking off in 2026 from the Badgerys Creek just 15 minutes away, you will be able to go from swimming in your own infinity pool to Marina Bay’s overnight, as this new service connects ESQ to the world."
