Designed by global architecture practice <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a>, long-term collaborators of the Coronation team, the project draws inspiration from the Sydney Blue Gum High Forest and the leafy character of the South Chatswood Heritage Conservation Area.

Coronation receives green light for Archer & Albert apartments in Chatswood

Leading Sydney developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a>, in partnership with Metrics Credit Partners, has officially broken ground on its landmark $1.8 billion Kings Bay Village project in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/five-dock-nsw-2046">Five Dock</a>, marking the beginning of construction on one of the most significant urban renewal precincts within the Parramatta Road Corridor.

A sod-turning ceremony was held at the project site on Parramatta Road, with NSW Premier Chris Minns and NSW Planning Minister Paul Scully joining Deicorp Chairman Fouad Deiri OAM and Metrics CEO and Managing Partner Andrew Lockhart, to mark the significant milestone.

Located at 129-154 Parramatta Road, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kings-bay-village-five-dock-53-75-queens-road-five-dock-nsw-2046">Kings Bay Village</a> will transform more than three hectares of underutilised land into a highly connected new neighbourhood comprising 1,185 homes, including 218 affordable dwellings for essential workers, alongside new retail, commercial, and community spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146120 project_image_fid=356895]

Designed by award-winning architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/turner-studio">TURNER</a>, the precinct blends crafted brick architecture with a pedestrian-focused urban layout across six buildings of varying scale. The project will deliver 14,700sqm of retail and commercial space, 6,500sqm of public open space, and a new 2,290sqm landscaped park and civic plaza that will form the social heart of the community.

Kings Bay Village is positioned minutes from the future Five Dock Metro Station, supporting the NSW Government and City of Canada Bay Council’s shared ambition for a more connected, liveable and revitalised Parramatta Road Corridor. Deicorp will also contribute more than $80 million towards new and upgraded local infrastructure, including pedestrian laneways, an activated streetscape and significant public domain works.

Fouad Deiri OAM, Chairman of Deicorp, said Kings Bay Village represents a defining opportunity for Sydney’s Inner West.

&nbsp;“Today marks the beginning of a precinct that will deliver lasting benefits for the Five Dock community - new homes, new open spaces, and a vibrant mixed-use environment that brings people closer to transport, services and amenities,"&nbsp;Deiri says.

“We are proud to be delivering much-needed housing, including affordable homes for essential workers, in partnership with the NSW Government and the City of Canada Bay. Kings Bay Village is urban renewal at its best - thoughtful, connected and community-focused.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146120 project_image_fid=356894]

Metrics CEO and Managing Partner Andrew Lockhart said the company is proud to support more housing and infrastructure in a key Sydney corridor. 
&nbsp; 
“Metrics and Deicorp share a proven track record of delivering high-impact projects that align closely with the NSW Government’s housing and infrastructure priorities. Kings Bay Village marks our most significant Sydney development to date, offering quality homes, essential infrastructure, and dynamic public spaces.” 
&nbsp; 
“This project reflects our ongoing commitment to creating value by supporting economic growth, job creation, and delivering excellent outcomes for our investors,” he said.

With Kings Bay Village now underway, Deicorp’s pipeline of apartments under construction across Sydney has increased to 5,102. Kings Bay Village is scheduled for completion in Q2 of 2029.

When Antoinette Chan and her architect husband, Peter began casually searching for an investment property, they weren’t expecting it to evolve into a life-changing family decision.

But one visit to the display suite of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen-group">Abadeen</a>’s <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/koyo-crows-nest-1-11-rodborough-avenue-crows-nest-nsw-2065">KOYO</a> development in Crows Nest changed everything, and sparked a remarkable story of three generations choosing to live side by side in one of the suburb's most architecturally-striking new developments.

Antoinette, her mother Janet Khoo, and her sister, who is currently living in Singapore, each purchased an apartment in the same building, creating a rare and meaningful multi-generational living arrangement underpinned by modern design, community values, and premium convenience.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356083]

“It wasn’t planned,” says Antoinette, who purchased a three-bedroom garden apartment with her husband and teenage daughter. “Peter came across KOYO and encouraged me to visit because he had a lot of respect for Abadeen’s previous work. As soon as we saw it, we knew it wasn’t just an investment, this was a home.”

Shortly after, Antoinette suggested her mother, Janet Khoo, take a look at the same development. A long-time inner-city resident who had recently sold her property in The Rocks, Janet had experienced some health setbacks and was contemplating a move closer to her daughter.

“I walked into the display apartment, and it just felt right,” says Janet. “I didn’t look anywhere else. The space, the simplicity of the design, the light, everything gave me a sense of peace. It’s a new beginning, but it also feels like home.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356093]

In a stroke of serendipity, Janet selected the two-bedroom apartment next door to her daughter, completely unaware of Antoinette’s purchase. Around the same time, Antoinette’s sister, who resides in Singapore, viewed the property via a virtual tour and chose to buy the apartment directly above Janet’s.

“We were all drawn to KOYO individually, and it just happened that our homes ended up vertically stacked, ground, first, and second floor,” Antoinette laughs. “It was a coincidence, but also a sign. This is where we’re meant to be.”

Designed by celebrated architect <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/koichi-takada-architects">Koichi Takada</a>, KOYO delivered on all fronts for the Chan-Khoo family.

“Our garden apartment gives us the feel of a standalone home but with none of the maintenance,” says Antoinette. “All three bedrooms open onto a generous private garden, which is perfect for our dog Archie, and for entertaining. The open-plan layout and high ceilings make it feel airy, calm and luxurious.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356092]

For Janet, security and accessibility were top priorities, and KOYO offered the ideal balance.

“At my age, I didn’t want to be climbing stairs,” she explains. “The first-floor apartment opens directly to the garden, and the building is small, which gives it a more personal, village-like feel. Yet I’m just steps away from my daughter and granddaughter. That gives me so much peace of mind.”

The family also appreciated the thoughtful amenities that avoided the excesses of some larger developments.

“We didn’t want a complex with too many facilities we wouldn’t use,” explains Antoinette. “KOYO has everything we need, generous storage, secure parking, beautifully landscaped walkways, and a stunning rooftop terrace with BBQ facilities that feels serene rather than busy.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=355428]

The location was another critical factor in the family’s decision. Though they had always lived closer to Sydney’s eastern suburbs, Antoinette says the transformation of Crows Nest was a revelation.

“When we returned from living overseas, we discovered Crows Nest had become this vibrant, walkable hub,” she says. “We love being able to stroll to cafés, restaurants, and shops on Willoughby Road. The new Metro makes the commute into the CBD effortless, and our daughter can walk to her school, it’s just next door."

Janet agree. “I was worried about giving up my inner-city lifestyle, but I’ve fallen in love with this area. It has everything I need, supermarkets, quiet streets, friendly faces, and it’s all a short walk away. I feel safe, independent, and connected.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356085]

While design and location were important, the family also credits their decision to Abadeen’s reputation and responsiveness. With decades of experience delivering high-quality residential projects, Abadeen’s track record helped build trust during a volatile market period.

“The waiting game was tough, especially after selling my old apartment,” says Janet. “But the Abadeen team kept me updated every step of the way. They were professional, courteous, and transparent.”

Antoinette said Peter works in property and had already heard of Abadeen. "The quality of their work really impressed us, and as the project neared completion, they went above and beyond to keep us informed and supported. That level of communication is rare.”

Only a handful of three-bedroom residences remain for sale, priced from $3.5 million.

Sydney-based developer Gold Partners Australia is making its move on the Gold Coast, launching what is one of the most affordable towers to the booming Broadbeach market.

Its <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/harmony-on-broadbeach-2797-gold-coast-highway-broadbeach-qld-4218">Harmony on Broadbeach</a> project, just 400m from the beach, has prices starting from $975,000 for its two-bedroom apartments that measure nearly 90 sqm internally.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113098 project_image_fid=355607]

There will be 113 two- and three-bedroom apartments spread out across the 33-storey tower on the 1,201 sqm site that will front First Avenue. Gold Partners Australia, which has delivered several major projects in Sydney's Norwest and has an active pipeline with projects in Hornsby and Carlingford, secured the block vacant, and want to start preliminary site works early next year through their in-house construction capability.

DBI Architects designed the tower with a four-level podium which will have an open-air swimming pool, sun deck, outdoor lounges, alfresco dining spaces, and a gym with adjoining yoga lawn. A hospitality venue will anchor the building at street level.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113098 project_image_fid=355611]

Olympus Property Group is selling Harmony on Broadbeach on behalf of Gold Partners Australia. Olympus Director Deanna Lockett says the project is resonating with everyone from locals, investors, those moving from interstate, and second home buyers from Brisbane.

"There's been nothing new come to the market in Broadbeach at this price point for nearly a year," Lockett recalls. "It hits the sweet spot of affordability, good sized apartments, in a great location."

Construction will commence in Q2 2026, and wrap up, all going well, by the end of 2028.

Offering both work and play: Inside Cube's amenity-rich Seasons Birtinya

Leading Sunshine Coast developer Cube Developments has achieved a near $75 million sell-out across its Bokarina Beach project Oasis.

Positioned with ocean views on the last remaining beachfront location on Bokarina Beach, Oasis makes up a collection of 56&nbsp;apartments with amenities including a lap pool, open air resident dining, a gym, an outdoor beach shower and lush gardens.

The boutique project sold 70 per cent of residences prior to officially hitting the market, totalling close to $50 million within a week of its soft launch.

Just four apartments remain, including two penthouses that range from 191 sqm to 242 sqm, boasting secluded rooftop terraces and private plunge pools, starting from $3.5 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106623 project_image_fid=200348]

Cube Developments Director Scott Juniper pointed out the region's notably high demand for prestigious properties, which is evident in the palpable desire among buyers. However, the limited supply of such properties is struggling to keep up with the demand.

“In a market where there is high demand for prestigious coastal homes, buyers are taking quick action to avoid missing out on the limited supply," Juniper said.

“Our sales team had 40 appointments booked on the first day of Oasis’ soft launch, 25 of which sold that very same day. There’s a strong sense of urgency among potential buyers, and we’ve observed a significant level of enthusiasm from people who want to secure a prime piece.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106623 project_image_fid=200349]

“We’re delivering an exceptional project on one of the last remaining beachfront blocks on Bokarina Beach to offer an unparalleled lifestyle, and buyers responded well to this vision."

The majority of buyers being local residents and individuals from wider South East Queensland can be attributed to the area's beauty and rarity of properties like this one. This is due to the combination of its premium yet simplistic design and the incredible oceanfront location on Longboard Parade, which provides a unique vantage point.

Set across six levels, Oasis’ configuration maximises access to almost 180 degree ocean views stretching North from Point Cartwright all the way down to the Caloundra Headland.

Oasis is now over 92 per cent sold.&nbsp;Remaining apartments start from $1,650,000.

Cube Developments see soaring demand for high-end Sunshine Coast apartment developments

The Sunshine Coast&nbsp;developer Cube Developments has lodged plans for a $30 million residential community in Peregian Springs, which will be one of the last opportunities for freehold land in the coveted region.

The community, dubbed Lumeah, will see just 33 land lots released, ranging from 500s qm to 800 sqm.

The 2.79 hectare&nbsp;site on Pavilion Drive was originally pinned for 51 townhouses but instead, Cube is seeking to offer 33 exclusive land parcels.

The project, which has been lodged as a joint venture with Queensland builder McNab, will benefit from its position of being a short walk from the Peregian Springs Shopping Centre, beach and Surf Lifesaving Club and Peregian Beach Village, as well as being close by to well-regarded private and state schools.

Director of Cube Developments Scott Juniper said Lumeah has been designed to fit in with the existing style and feel of the surrounding streetscapes, with plenty of landscaping to its verges.

<a href="/developments/peregian-springs-qld-4573"><img alt="" height="822" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-02-24_at_4.35.33_pm.png" width="1288" /></a>

&ldquo;The site itself is just spectacular, it&rsquo;s nestled within the leafy and well-established community of Peregian Springs and is a stone&rsquo;s throw from some of the best beaches the Sunshine Coast has to offer,&rdquo; Juniper said.

&ldquo;Majority of blocks back onto scenic outlooks and provide unbelievable ocean views.&rdquo;

&ldquo;We made the call alongside McNab to reduce the density from the existing DA approval for 51 townhouses, as we feel as though 33 lots is more aligned with the surrounding residents and will give this estate a truly prized and intimate feel.&rdquo;

Peregian Springs is a small oceanside community just south of Noosa that boasts wide open greenspace, oceans and wildlife conservation sites.

Once approved, it will offer one of the last opportunities for freehold land in the coveted Peregian Springs region.

Comprising 54 two and three-bedroom apartments, the first eight-storey tower was launched to market six months ago and has seen a diverse buyer mix, with first home purchasers, investors, downsizers and interstate buyers all moving quickly on the opportunity to purchase off the plan.

Over 30 per cent of the second tower has already been secured since its launch prior to Christmas.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106957 project_image_fid=184864]

Director Scott Juniper noted the team have also seen a spike in local downsizers to the project.

&ldquo;Empty nesters from Buddina and the neighbouring area are capitalising on a market where they can sell their existing residence as a million dollar knockdown and opt for an oceanside apartment.

&ldquo;Three-bedroom units have been particularly popular in the most recent release due to being priced at under $750,000, making them appealing to this type of buyer.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106957 project_image_fid=184867]

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve also sold two of the three penthouses, one to a local buyer from the neighbouring area for $1.5 million, and given the expansiveness and inclusions of these modern residences, we expect the final penthouse to move quickly too.&rdquo;

Seasons&rsquo; Tower Two offers fewer apartments per floor to Tower One, including ground floor residences, while Tower One houses the elaborate suite of amenities including a fully equipped gym, yoga studio, spa and sauna on the ground level.

Upon completion, the Cottee Parker-designed project will make up around 148 apartments set over three eight-storey towers.

Cube Developments sell out first tower in Sunshine Coast apartment development, Seasons Birtinya

Seasons Birtinya, on the Sunshine Coast, has proved to be popular with all demographics, as Cube, one of the area&#39;s most well-regarded developments, put together a development which was both design driven and price led.

Cube had their go-to architecture firm, Cottee Parker Architects, who have designed the developer&#39;s most high end stock in the area, create Seasons, with the overarching design principles to connect residents to the local community and to differentiate the design from its neighbours.

Priced from $499,000, the apartments have been a hit with first home buyers, local and interstate investors, as well as downsizers.

Urban recently spoke to Sandra Browne, director at Cottee Parker,&nbsp;to discuss the design ideas behind Seasons.

JR: What was the brief from Cube for Seasons? What were the key features that were essential?&nbsp;​

SB: The&nbsp;brief was to create a unique and elevated &#39;Work Rest Play&#39; environment in response to the post COVID lifestyle shift, with leading amenity for the Sunshine Coast.

JR: Was there a project that inspired you in the design?

SB: We&nbsp;initially&nbsp;drew inspiration from some&nbsp;inner-city&nbsp;Melbourne projects, and&nbsp;then evolved and adapted these to speak to the Sunshine Coast lifestyle -&nbsp;with a point of difference being an enormous amount of amenity to take advantage of the weather, the adventure and a&nbsp;sense&nbsp;of health and wellbeing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106957 project_image_fid=184863]

JR: What were the most important features of the site/location which influenced your design?

SB: Its position on Lake Ka​wana alongside the ocean&nbsp;and&nbsp;hinterland views - these factors heavily influenced the design and vision which ultimately&nbsp;culminated&nbsp;in in utilising lots of natural light and in building three individual towers with central cores.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106957 project_image_fid=184864]

JR: What was the biggest challenge in the design of Seasons?

SB: The unique shape of the site and balance area left over from Stage 1&nbsp;proved a challenge when&nbsp;placing amenity destinations throughout the common areas.

JR: How do you approach designing a three-tower development?

We engaged Cottee Parker architects to ensure our building design captured all views on offer with lots of natural light as&nbsp;well as&nbsp;appealing to a variety of purchasers through the right apartment mix.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106957 project_image_fid=184866]

JR: What part of the design are you most proud of/ most looking forward to seeing when the towers are completed?

SB: Looking forward to seeing the terrace apartments of Stage One as well as seeing the three apartment towers work together as an integrated precinct.

How the Sunshine Coast apartment development, Seasons Birtinya, was designed: Five minutes with Cottee Parker's Sandra Browne

The Sunshine Coast developer, Cube Developments, has appointed National Construction Management to start building their luxury Maroochydore apartment development, Nature.

It will be NCM&#39;s third Cube build, following the now complete Curve Birtinya and the currently under construction Picasso apartment development in Mooloolaba.

Nature, located in the small waterfront suburb of Cotton Tree,&nbsp;was originally pinned for 13 opulent residences set over eight-storeys, but has dropped to 12 following a &lsquo;mega apartment&rsquo; amalgamation.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89721 project_image_fid=172108]

To date, Nature by Cube has sold close to $39 million worth of apartments off-the-plan with all but one snapped up, including the sale of the enormous $7 million penthouse; a record price for the developer&rsquo;s portfolio.

Designed by Cottee Parker, Nature boasts a host&nbsp;resort-style amenities, including a 25-meter lap pool, gym, steam room and spa, yoga lawn, gardens, greenspaces and sun lounging areas - all programmed into a ground floor activity space.

Cube Development&rsquo;s Director Scott Juniper said it was a significant milestone to be starting construction, following the project&rsquo;s DA approval in July and the near sell-out success.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89721 project_image_fid=172109]

&ldquo;Nature will be home to some of the most luxurious apartments the Sunshine Coast has seen and we believe NCM has the capabilities and track record to deliver on this, including the bespoke nature of these apartments following amalgamations and customisations.&rdquo;

Director at Cottee Parker, Sandra Browne, said the quality of architecture far exceeds what is offered in the surrounding market.

&ldquo;We wanted to deliver a product that stood out amongst the crowd in terms of amenity, as well as being of a higher architectural spec and with an unrivalled, premium aesthetic.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89721 project_image_fid=172107]

&ldquo;The materiality of the building and the expansiveness of the open&nbsp;glass facade and viewing speaks to a quality of architecture that exceeds what is offered in the surrounding market,&rdquo; she said.

Construction on Nature by Cube is due to commence in the coming weeks and is scheduled to be complete by 2023.

One apartment remains for sale, priced from $3.5 million.

Cube to start building luxury Cotton Tree, Maroochydore apartment development, Nature

The prominent Sunshine Coast developer, Cube Developments, has bolstered its 2022 pipeline, securing four super lots in the growing Bir​tinya area.

The near 9,000 sqm Cardinal Place site will host up to 245 apartments, adding a further $100 million to Cube&#39;s Birtinya portfolio.

Cube Developments Director Scott Juniper said that he expected the new sites to relieve the pressure currently experienced in the Sunshine Coast housing market.

&ldquo;Our commitment to the Sunshine Coast is resolute and has culminated in a site where we can rapidly cater to the strong demand that we&rsquo;re experiencing,&rdquo; Juniper said.

&ldquo;For us, Birti​nya was the perfect location - it&rsquo;s one of the fastest growing suburbs on the coast and the site itself is nestled in the Birtinya Business Village, adjacent from the Town Centre and of course benefitting from stunning Lake Ka​wana with its waterfront vantage.

&ldquo;The property is just 20 minutes from Marooc​hydore and Cal​oundra, 30 minutes from the Sunshine Coast Airport and just over an hour to land you in Brisbane CBD.&rdquo;

Cube&#39;s already solid Birtinya portfolio includes&nbsp;Seasons by Birtinya, a three-tower, 146-apartment project in its second stage release.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106957 project_image_fid=184863]

That&#39;s proved popular with&nbsp;first home buyers and investors, who were been attracted to&nbsp;the affordable $499,000 entry point for a two-bedroom apartment in the Cottee Park-designed development.

Juniper said there was significant interest due to&nbsp;the project&#39;s plethora of amenities and location.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve witnessed strong uptake from both first home buyers and investors who are drawn to Seasons&rsquo; amenities, which provides incredible value for money given the price point,&quot; Juniper says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106957 project_image_fid=184875]

&ldquo;All while being located in the heart of it all,&nbsp;Bir​tinya&nbsp;is really starting to come into its own; residents will enjoy waterfront vistas, beach access is just moments away and as it is a relatively new suburb, it has fantastic infrastructure to cater to demand.&rdquo;

Amenities include outdoor BBQ and gathering spaces, private dining room, lounging areas, sun decks, a 25-metre lap pool, fully equipped gym, yoga studio, spa and sauna.

Cube also has the&nbsp;50 sold-out lakeside residences at One Prosperity and the completed, 55-dwelling Curve project.

Cube has recently delivered Beach Life at Alexandra Headland project Beach Life, which settled at the start of this year, and its boutique Mooloolaba project Picasso is due for completion by mid next year.

Cube Developments set for further Birtinya apartment development

The prominent Sunshine Coast developer, Cube Developments, has lodged plans for its latest apartment development.

They&#39;ll be creating Oasis Apartments, just 56 apartments across three buildings at Bokarina Beach, a site they acquired earlier in the year.

At the time of purchase, Cube Director Scott Juniper said the&nbsp;3,215 sqm block, located between Calounda and Mooloolaba and adjacent to&nbsp;Bokarina Beach, was earmarked for a six level apartment building of up to 75 apartments.

<a href="/new-apartments/oasis-apartments-bokarina-25-kombi-street-bokarina">To keep up to date with the development and its launch, enquire here</a>

But Juniper wanted to go the other way, planning something more boutique which would offer&nbsp;a point of difference to the other developments in the masterplan.

<img alt="" height="657" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/oasis_apartments_bokorina_3.jpg" width="1200" />

&quot;Three of the five sites nearby are under construction and are quite large scale, large built form projects, some with over 100 units,&quot; Juniper said, adding that those developments will have ground floor activation.

&quot;We&#39;re looking to go boutique, with larger format units, and really build to the strength of what&nbsp;Bokarina has become,&quot; Juniper said.

<a href="/new-apartments/oasis-apartments-bokarina-25-kombi-street-bokarina">To keep up to date with the development and its launch, enquire here</a>

They had local architect Cameron Sheedy put together the plans for the 56 apartments, a maximum of four apartments per level. Each building rises six storeys.

There are six two-level penthouses, each with at least three-bedrooms plus a multipurpose room. The biggest penthouse has four bedrooms. They range from 160 sqm to 242 sqm, and feature their own rooftop terraces with a private lap pool.

Cube lodge $75 million plans for Oasis Apartments at Sunshine Coast's Bokarina Beach

A wave of local and interstate high-rollers have pinpointed the Sunshine Coast apartment market, with the local apartment developer, Cube Developments, seeing huge success at their&nbsp;Maroochydore apartment development, Nature by Cube.

Over three quarters of the luxury development has sold since it achieved development approval in August, totalling $32 million worth of sales to date.

Nature by Cube, on the dress circle The Esplanade,&nbsp;was pinned for 13 luxury apartments across eight-levels, crowned by an expansive 475 sqm penthouse.

But buyers have been keen on replicating the penthouse scale and level of luxury across the lower levels, combining two apartments to create the bigger space, with six bedrooms being combined.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89721 project_image_fid=172109]

Cube Developments Director Scott Juniper says&nbsp;that buyers are moving to the area and are looking to maintain inner-city luxuries alongside a post-COVID lifestyle shift.

&ldquo;Buyers are seeking to achieve the best of both worlds - the open-air and relaxed lifestyle that the Sunshine Coast offers, coupled with a high-end home that is on par with their Brisbane,&nbsp;Sydney or Melbourne residence,&rdquo; Juniper said.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;re meeting the need with a flexible design and build model that is culminating in homes that are far from cookie cutter and truly bespoke; we&rsquo;re creating something that you&rsquo;ve never seen before.&rdquo;

The mega-apartments span full floors and will feature&nbsp;seven-metre frontage living with enormous semi-outdoor entertaining and kitchen spaces, as well as two dining areas, a private wine cellar, beverage service bar and multiple home offices.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89721 project_image_fid=172105]

The penthouse was secured&nbsp;for nearly $7 million.

Architecture firm Cottee Parker designed the development, with Juniper&#39;s brief simple: &#39;We want the best the Sunshine Coast has ever seen.&#39;

Cottee Parker Director Sandra Browne said the expansive design of the sky home has been fashioned to retain waterfront views across the master bedroom and communal living spaces, with an architectural spec which has not yet been seen on the Sunshine Coast.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89721 project_image_fid=172106]

&ldquo;This is the largest penthouse that we&rsquo;ve been part of creating in the area, and is within the top of Cottee Parker&rsquo;s national portfolio in terms of its sheer size,&rdquo; Browne said.

&ldquo;We have certainly taken advantage of this to capture the views - which are nothing short of spectacular, and maximise the frontage over the water.&quot;

Only three apartments at Nature by Cube remain, and are priced from $2.95 million.
