Sydney's top 15 new apartments developments set to launch in 2026

Developer-builder <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/dasco-australia">DASCO</a> has pushed beyond the now-standard inclusions of rooftop pools and landscaped podiums at its recently launched new Epping project, Senso.

It has laid out over 4,000 sqm of resident-only amenity in a move designed to compete directly with low-density housing on livability, not just density. The result is a development that supports genuine daily use through purposeful spaces distributed across its five-building, 479-apartment precinct.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134954 project_image_fid=4396]

Two rooftop pools form the anchor of Senso. One is a 27-metre lap pool adjoining a heated spa, designed for everyday fitness rather than just summer leisure. The second sits on a lower podium, allowing different buildings to share in vertical access and reducing crowding during peak times.

It is the secondary spaces that start to distinguish Senso from other large-scale suburban projects. A rooftop cinema is integrated into a landscaped terrace, offering open-air screenings with natural ventilation and passive cooling.&nbsp;

The inclusion of a “sensory walk”, an elevated boardwalk that threads through the site, suggests a rare investment in non-commercial, non-essential amenity: space for quiet movement that doesn’t double as access or traffic circulation.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134954 project_image_fid=4402]

The gym and wellness centre, often relegated to a small ground-floor room in many builds, takes on more substance here. Residents have access to a fully equipped gym, as well as outdoor yoga areas and meditative zones that integrate greenery and natural light.&nbsp;

The Club Lounge is similarly designed to support multiple use cases, with a private dining terrace, kitchenette, workspace, and lockable wine storage. These aren’t superficial additions; their scale and spatial allocation indicate serious intent for frequent resident use.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134954 project_image_fid=4391]

Importantly, Senso’s amenities are embedded within a site that spans more than 10,000 sqm, allowing for better separation between spaces and reduced noise spillover, a critical but often overlooked factor in high-density developments. This spatial generosity also enables multiple alfresco kitchens and communal terraces without compromising individual privacy or usable space.

While many developments make claims about lifestyle, few back it with this level of built infrastructure. Senso’s mix of dedicated fitness, wellness, social and passive green spaces suggests a conscious response to the post-pandemic shift in housing expectations, especially among owner-occupiers.&nbsp;

DASCO is one of several leading developers who have taken out Resilience Insurance's Latent Defects Insurance policy, providing buyers with a 10-year structural and waterproofing warranty, and giving them the ultimate peace of mind.

Senso is scheduled for completion in late 2028.

The outdoor amenities elevating life at Senso, Epping

Following the proposal by the Minns Labor Government to rezone Parramatta Road to create up to 8,000 new homes, prominent developer Ceerose has gone to the NSW Gov to increase the density of its new mixed-use residential building in Leichhardt.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/ceerose">Ceerose</a>, founded by Edward Doueihi nearly three decades ago, has filed plans for 154 apartments above ground-floor retail at 307-315 Parramatta Road, a key corner site near Norton Street, the main high street strip in Leichhardt.

It's an upsize from the previously approved scheme of 63 apartments across a seven-storey building.

<img alt="Ceerose" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ba1ae75b-5f08-43fb-b8d5-3de6d9f6ef71" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-04%20at%2010.31.39%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=yA3hBBLPH4ev7MsAE0_hieXeqiFqBUb7" />

The project is being advanced through the State Significant Development (SSD) pathway, with concurrent rezoning sought to facilitate the proposal. The 10-storey development would rise over a four-level basement and deliver two retail tenancies, one a larger-format offering and the other a smaller “hole in the wall” space, addressing the Parramatta Road frontage. 21 of the apartments are dedicated as affordable housing.

According to the Urban Design Report by Architecture AND, the scheme includes a podium and tower configuration, with a fine-grain, two-storey parapet street wall that references the traditional shopfront rhythm along the corridor. “An elegant tower form is proposed, combined with a characterful two storey frontage... articulating it as two related buildings, providing consistency with the rhythm and grain of Parramatta Road,” the report notes.

The residential component is split across two slender towers set back from the street edge, a design move aimed at preserving solar access and reducing perceived bulk. This massing strategy also seeks to improve residential amenity by focusing scale toward the quieter northern interface, away from Parramatta Road’s noise and pollution.

<img alt="Ceerose" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="347f2f8f-5d36-4388-b40a-2e77380b9c19" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-04%20at%2010.31.02%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=xvyUE2ujT1lzivXTo.mHBJFF4SmfgLtz" />

Architecture AND has worked with Ceerose on previous Inner West projects, and cites a deep familiarity with the local character. Their design draws heavily on context, heritage, and sunlight access considerations, and engages with the Inner West Council’s “Our Fairer Future” strategic planning framework.

The site spans 2,712 sqm and is located near key intersections with Catherine Street, Hay Street, and Redmond Street. It adjoins a public carpark to the north and is within walking distance of Stanmore and Petersham stations. It is also flagged in state and local planning strategies, including the Parramatta Road Corridor Urban Transformation Strategy, as a suitable candidate for increased density.

Ceerose recently completed The Alex Collective on McEvoy Street in Alexandria, Abbie's Lane in Annandale, and the award-winning Munro House in Elizabeth Bay.

The Parramatta Road corridor is coming to life with the proposed rezoning which is serviced by a significant number of bus, light rail and train routes.

Deicorp is progressing with its $1.8 billion <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> precinct on Parramatta Road in Five Dock, as is <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/nsw/toga-to-push-on-with-five-dock-mixed-use-masterplan">TOGA further down the street</a>. Those two projects alone will bring nearly 2,000 new homes to Parramatta Road.

North Sydney's landmark 'SBS Building' on Alfred Street is set to be demolished to make way for a new mixed-use residential tower in the booming North Sydney.

Commercial property group FiveX is behind the plans for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/275-alfred-street-north-north-sydney-nsw-2060">39-storey tower</a>, the latest project to advance under the NSW Government’s Housing Delivery Authority pathway.

They are proposing 184 apartments above retail spaces, which will replace the existing 20-storey commercial building. FiveX was set up more than five decades ago by Joshua and Marko Berger. It is currently led by Joshua's son Lesli.&nbsp;

<img alt="First look: Fivex plans 39-storey residential tower at 275 Alfred Street, North Sydney" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2efa0980-53fa-4cca-9f9e-9c3c845d4746" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Article%20Feature%20Image%20%28Grid%29%20%281%29_0.png?VersionId=y_YyPMq3NQLfYRs84pP4os9UgWiMLp75" />

According to the Architectural Design Report by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/fjc-studio">FJC Studio</a>, the slender tower form has been deliberately designed to respect the site's transitional setting at the southern gateway to the North Sydney CBD, where high-rise towers give way to lower-scale residential precincts.

"The slender tower form and articulated podium establish a respectful relationship with nearby heritage and low rise buildings, including the Whaling Road Heritage Conservation Area,” the architecture firm noted, adding that the tower “completes a missing link in the urban fabric” while enhancing the Alfred Street streetscape.

The proposed building will include a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, with 15 percent of the gross residential floor area allocated as affordable housing. There is an agreement already in place that those apartments will be managed by Evolve Housing.

The project aligns with broader state housing objectives, including the National Housing Accord target of delivering 1.2 million new homes by 2029. The Scoping Report filed with the State Significant Development Application (SSDA) suggests the site "presents no impediments to rapid delivery,” with construction able to commence within 12 months of receiving consent.

North Sydney has been one of the most popular suburbs in Sydney for new and off the plan apartment development, but hasn't had the supply to keep up with demand, until recently.

AURA by Aqualand was, for a long time, the only off the plan apartment building on the market. That completed last year, and has sold the majority of its 386 luxury apartments. Recently ALAND launched <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-walden-173-179-walker-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">The Walden</a> on the same street, selling over $100 million within just a few hours of its launch, while developer CASA also launched&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-mclaren-north-sydney-45-mclaren-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">The McLaren</a>&nbsp;in the same precinct.

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.

&ldquo;Our sales team had 40 appointments booked on the first day of Oasis&rsquo; soft launch, 25 of which sold that very same day,&quot; Juniper said.

&quot;There&rsquo;s been a sense of urgency and we&rsquo;ve certainly had people vying to get a piece of the action.

&ldquo;Buyers are largely locals and those from wider South East Queensland who understand the beauty of this area and the rarity in stock like this, both in its very premium yet simplistic design and the incredible oceanfront vantage on Longboard Walk.

&ldquo;Quietly tucked between Caloundra and Mooloolaba, this location offers connection to the best of the suburb and beyond.&quot;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109813 project_image_fid=196622]

Positioned with uninterrupted ocean views on the last remaining beachfront location on Bokarina Beach, Oasis has two-bedroom apartments from $800,000 and three-bedroom apartments from $1 million.

The&nbsp;project also features two-level penthouses that boast secluded rooftop terraces and private plunge pools, starting from $3.2 million.

Juniper said they expected to be sold out within the week.

It comes at the same time that Cube has sold out its Nature by Cube project further up the road in Cotton Tree, with the 12 apartments selling for a combined value of $43 million, including its $7 million penthouse.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89721 project_image_fid=172105]

&ldquo;Nature is an extremely exclusive project given the handful of residences on offer, and is unique to the coast from an architectural and materiality standpoint,&quot; Juniper added.

&quot;The sheer amount of amenity and meticulous attention to detail in the design of each home is what sets it apart in the market.

&ldquo;We want to deliver something that hasn&rsquo;t been experienced before here on the Sunshine Coast, to offer an unparalleled lifestyle, and buyers responded well to this vision.

&ldquo;The strong desire for prestige property is palpable in this region, it&rsquo;s a matter of supply struggling to keep up with demand.&quot;

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.



Cube lodge application for $30 million residential community in Peregian Springs

Demand has continued for the up-and-coming Sunshine Coast suburb of Birtinya, with Cube Developments announcing a sell out success of the first tower in its Seasons by Cube project, totalling over $40 million in sales.

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.

Priced from $499,000, the apartments have been a hit with first home buyers, local and interstate investors, as well as downsizers.



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.

&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.

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.

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.

&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.

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.
