<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/draycon">Draycon Building</a> is nearing completion of Boutique Chevron Island, a 42-apartment development on the northern end of Chevron Island at 17–19 Parneno Street, with a limited-time offer of fully furnished apartments available.

Now more than 90 per cent complete, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/boutique-chevron-island-17-19-parneno-chevron-island-qld-4217">Boutique</a> has been shaped by one of the Gold Coast’s most tightly held island addresses, where riverfront outlooks and walkable access to Surfers Paradise converge.

For Draycon Building Managing Director Howard Dabit, the appeal of the site was immediate.

“I knew it was a good site as soon as I saw it,” Dabit said.

“The position and location on the north end of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/chevron-island-qld-4217">Chevron Island</a>, the way the river swirls around the site basically from the north to the east, it feels like the site is surrounded by the water. The height that we’ve got and the aspect looking north is beautiful. Eighty per cent of the apartments are looking north so they get that drenching sunlight coming in.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360922]

That northern orientation places the development within a stretch of Chevron Island defined by open river aspects and skyline views, while remaining embedded in the suburb’s established village setting.

Chevron Island has increasingly drawn owner-occupiers seeking centrality without the intensity of high-rise beachfront living. Positioned at the geographical centre of the Gold Coast, the island offers direct access to both the beach and key cultural infrastructure while retaining a neighbourhood-scale character.

Connected by bridge to Surfers Paradise, Chevron Island offers walkable access to beaches, riverfront parklands and a revitalised foreshore boulevard animated by walkers and cyclists throughout the day. The Pacific Ocean is only minutes away, reinforcing the suburb’s dual river-and-surf identity.

At the same time, Thomas Drive forms the spine of the island’s village life, delivering cafés, wine bars, casual dining and everyday services within easy reach. Independent grocers, wellness operators and neighbourhood retailers contribute to a community atmosphere that remains distinct from the vertical scale of the beachfront.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360915]

In the opposite direction, the Green Bridge links directly to HOTA – Home of the Arts – placing galleries, performance venues and parklands within walking distance. Weekly markets and major exhibitions draw visitors from across the region, while residents return to a quieter residential pocket at day’s end.

Public transport, including nearby bus routes and the G:link light rail corridor along the coastal spine, strengthens connectivity north and south. Griffith University, the Gold Coast University Hospital precinct and established private schools such as The Southport School are all within a short drive.

Ongoing investment across Surfers Paradise, HOTA and the broader Southport corridor has elevated amenity while preserving Chevron Island’s comparatively low-rise residential character. It is this balance, walkable village atmosphere paired with metropolitan-scale infrastructure, that continues to differentiate the suburb from higher-density beachfront precincts.

Boutique comprises just 42 residences, designed to maximise river and skyline outlooks within this tightly held island setting.

Boutique Chevron Island is slated for completion in April 2026, with prices starting from $1,220,000.

Sydney developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a> has secured planning approval for a $300 million residential development in Lindfield, marking the company’s second project on Sydney’s North Shore and its first on the Upper North Shore.

Located on Beaconsfield Parade and designed by DKO Architecture, the state significant development comprises three buildings of up to 10 storeys and will include 399 residences, including 59 affordable homes and 40 adaptable homes.

Residences will range in size from one, two and three bedrooms, with two-bedroom apartments accounting for over 60 per cent of the product make-up. Residents will have access to a broad suite of amenities, including a wellness area, indoor and outdoor recreational spaces, a pool, a gym, a community room and a golf simulator.

In line with Deicorp’s long-standing focus on creating transit-oriented communities, the project is located just 260 metres from the Lindfield Train Station, reinforcing its role in delivering well-connected housing close to established infrastructure, retail and local services.

The inclusion of affordable and adaptable housing supports greater diversity within the local market, while the mix of apartment types responds to demand from downsizers, young professionals and families seeking access to the Upper North Shore.

Deicorp Founder Fouad Deiri OAM said the approval represents an important milestone for both the company and the suburb

“This approval allows us to deliver well-designed homes in a location that is already supported by strong transport and community infrastructure," Deiri said.

"Our focus is on creating places that integrate into their surroundings and provide long-term value for residents, and the broader Lindfield community. Being within walking distance of the station ensures this project supports sustainable growth in the right locations."

Across its portfolio, Deicorp currently has 4,703 apartments under construction, playing a leading role in shaping connected, liveable communities across Sydney.

Its expanding portfolio of Metro-linked developments includes Tallawong Village, <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> in Five Dock, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/hyde-metropolitan-sydney-133-141-liverpool-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Hyde Metropolitan</a> in Sydney CBD, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/falcon-alexander-crows-nest-8-alexander-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Falcon &amp; Alexander</a> in Crows Nest and Showground Village, Castle Hill.

Deicorp purchased the Beaconsfield Paradise site last year. Construction is scheduled to commence in Q2 of 2026 and will be completed in 2029.

In a joint venture with The Trump Organization, Australia developer Altus Property Group has announced plans to bring a Trump International Hotel &amp; Tower to the Gold Coast, marking the first Trump-branded project in Australia.

"Trump International Hotel &amp; Tower, Gold Coast is our first official project in Australia and reflects our unwavering commitment to delivering world-class luxury experiences in iconic locations around the world," Eric Trump, Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization, said.

"This development exemplifies the Trump brand’s dedication to quality, sophistication, and unmatched service, and we are thrilled to bring this vision to the vibrant Gold Coast community."

The 91-storey building, which will become the tallest in Australia at 335 metres, will feature a&nbsp;285-room luxury hotel bearing the trademark Trump logo. It will also include 272 luxury residential apartments, a three-level podium with an exclusive Beach Club, and over 3,400 sqm of premium commercial, retail, and dining space, revitalizing the central Surfers Paradise precinct.

“Trump International Hotel &amp; Tower, Gold Coast will be a truly unique offering in the Australian market, bringing the prestige and allure of a world-class luxury brand,"&nbsp;Altus founder and chief executive David Young said.

"Altus Property Group is proud of its track record in delivering landmark developments across Australia, and our expertise ensures this project will be an outstanding success."

More than a century after the Corrimal Coke Works first opened in 1912, the industrial landmark that helped shape the suburb is being reinterpreted as a walkable residential neighbourhood, with Stage One of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-works-stage-one-27-railway-street-corrimal-nsw-2518">The Works</a> now underway at 27 Railway Street.

For 102 years, the site was central to <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/corrimal-nsw-2518">Corrimal</a>’s economic and social identity before operations ceased in 2014. Rather than erasing that legacy, developer Legacy Property has embedded it into the masterplan, retaining and reinterpreting elements such as the iconic 1912 brick chimney and sections of the original C1 Coke Oven Battery, alongside the adaptive reuse of the former powerhouse building.

Stage One will introduce 181 apartments across low-rise buildings, offering predominantly two and three-bedroom residences with completion targeted for mid-2027. The scale and configuration reflect a deliberate focus on owner-occupiers, targeting those seeking a lower-maintenance home in a prime location within the northern suburbs of Wollongong.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143415 project_image_fid=359833]

Apartments have been designed to maximise natural light and cross-ventilation, with floor-to-ceiling glazing extending living areas onto generous balconies. Engineered timber flooring, induction cooktops and 900mm ovens in larger residences support everyday functionality, while two interior palettes allow buyers to tailor finishes to their preferences. The material selection draws on a restrained coastal language, intended to connect homes to their surroundings rather than compete with them.

The Works forms part of a broader 18-hectare masterplan that will ultimately deliver around 550 dwellings, new parks, and a heritage precinct celebrating the site’s past. More than seven hectares are dedicated to open space, including Southern Park and a Village Green with community gardens and recreation areas. The creek corridor is being rehabilitated with 150,000 native plantings, restoring biodiversity to the site and softening landscape.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143415 project_image_fid=359841]

Positioned adjacent to Corrimal Station and within walking distance of Corrimal Town Centre, the precinct places daily essentials, rail connections and local retail within easy reach. Wollongong CBD, including the hospital, university and entertainment venues, sits approximately 6.5 kilometres to the south.

For buyers more familiar with North Wollongong, Corrimal offers a different proposition: a well-established coastal suburb framed by beaches to the east and the escarpment to the west, with a strong sense of local identity shaped in part by the former Coke Works. The Works seeks to reinforce that identity by creating a connected, walkable neighbourhood between coast and escarpment, rather than a standalone apartment complex.

Sustainability underpins the development approach. The Works is targeting Wollongong’s first 5-Star Green Star-rated community, with water-sensitive urban design, recycled materials and energy-efficient buildings integrated across the masterplan. For residents, these measures provide not only environmental benefits but also reduced operational costs and future resilience.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143415 project_image_fid=359842]

With construction commenced and display materials available to view, prospective buyers can now engage more directly with the project’s vision, reviewing floorplans, material selections and the broader masterplan in detail. For many local homeowners weighing a move, the opportunity to experience how heritage, landscape and contemporary design intersect may help bridge the gap between familiarity and the next chapter.

As Stage One progresses toward its mid-2027 completion, The Works represents a significant chapter in Corrimal’s evolution, transforming a site that once powered local industry into a walkable residential precinct designed for its next generation of residents.

When it comes to developing in Melb​ourne's Bayside region, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/lowe-living">Lowe Living</a> knows exactly what buyers want.

With a longstanding presence in the area and a string of sell-out projects, Lowe Living consistently delivers developments that are as sought-after as their predecessors.

Their latest instalment is in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/hampton-vic-3188">Hampton</a><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/hampton-east-vic-3188">&nbsp;East,</a> the same postcode where they have previously delivered Hampton Hill and Oceano. The developer-builder recently commenced construction on its newest project,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/marella-hampton-31-35-alicia-street-hampton-east-vic-3188">Marella</a>, a collection of 32 apartments just five minutes from the beach.

Site acquisition is paramount to success. Lowe Living rarely brings a building to market that isn’t within walking distance of essential amenities, whether it be the beach, a prominent retail strip, or a train station. Marella is no exception, located at its Alicia Street address, less than a kilometre from the retail heart of Hampton Street and Hampton Station.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358495]

Equally important to Lowe Living is the architecture.

For Marella, they appointed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cera-stribley-architects">Cera Stribley</a>, who explains that the architectural vision was to create a contemporary reinterpretation of the Californian bungalow, a style that’s iconic to Hampton’s heritage.

"By borrowing, abstracting, and reinterpreting elements of this quintessential style, such as strong datum lines, articulated columns, exposed structures, and roof tiles, our design strikes a balance between modernity and familiarity," says Cera Stribley.

"This approach ensures that the development is not only visually appealing but also contextually sensitive, resonating with Hampton's existing architectural landscape."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358499]

The building features terracotta brick, soft cream masonry, and exposed metal detailing, giving it a tactile presence that is intended to weather gently over time.

Internally, the focus on lasting quality continues, with two and three-bedroom residences anchored by sculptural stone kitchen islands, natural light, and clearly defined transitions between living, dining, and outdoor spaces.

The layouts have been carefully designed. Open-plan zones extend to private balconies, with light-filled interiors and generous kitchen proportions, supported by Miele wall ovens, induction cooktops, and integrated fridge-freezers. These are not small apartments rebranded as luxury; they have been designed at scale, with ample storage, hotel-style entry access, and secure basement parking provided as standard.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358492]

At the uppermost level, Marella’s Signature Collection penthouses offer city or bay views, large entertaining terraces (some with outdoor spas), and elevated finishes, including fully wrapped stone kitchen benches and a Liebherr wine fridge.

Flexible room arrangements allow for a fourth bedroom or secondary living space, sought-after by both empty nesters who want the space when family visits and families with older children.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358498]

A residents’ lounge on the ground floor reinforces the project’s small-community feel. With a fireplace, private dining area, and adjoining terrace, it’s one of several shared spaces that balance amenity with privacy and scale.

Construction has commenced, with completion expected in early 2027.

The City of Onkaparinga has officially given property developer Greaton the green light to commence construction on their new 10-building luxury resort in McLaren Vale, 38 kilometres south of Adelaide. The development is a partnership between Greaton and sustainable wine purveyors Wirra Wirra, with plans to build a 33-key resort, situated amongst the Wirra Wirra vineyards.

Recent data from the South Australian Tourism Commission found that there were only 3% of overnight visitors to the Fleurieu Peninsula between 2018 to 2019, many of which were intrastate visitors. Greaton decided to embark on this ambitious project to drive an uplift in international tourism within the Fleurieu Peninsula region. 

<blockquote>
"This year, expenditure is forecast to increase to $509M*, so while growth in this market is expected, we are confident this resort will go some way to further increasing international visitation once completed. In addition, to further increase the appeal to overseas visitors, we are currently negotiating with an international wellness-oriented resort operator that runs some of the most renowned resorts and hotels around the world – we hope to be in a position to announce this partnership soon."
</blockquote>

<figcaption>Image supplied.</figcaption></figure>Wirra Wirra Managing Director, Andrew Kay, explains that the winery staff often hear from inbound tourism operators about the lack of premium accommodation offerings in the Fleurieu Peninsula region. 

<blockquote>
"We presented our hotel concept to potential suppliers at the 2019 Australian Tourism Exchange in Adelaide, and the response was overwhelmingly positive. They would book tomorrow if they could."
</blockquote>

Kay believes that the 5-star development will add significant value to the Peninsula and drive international awareness of the area. 

Blink Design Group has designed the approved plans for the spa resort, which also includes an infinity pool, function hall and the restoration of a heritage building, which previously belonged to the winery founder Robert Wigley.

<blockquote>
"The building is quite derelict, and the development provides the opportunity to give it a purposeful role into the future." 
</blockquote>

The heritage building is set to become a bookable luxury bridal suite once restorative works are complete. 

Construction is slated to begin in November this year, with completion anticipated for 2022.

Greaton has acquired Queensland's Keswick Island, as the group continues to diversify its portfolio from apartments to hotel resorts.
It reported it was recently listed with adjusted $20 million hopes.
The transfer of the lease over Keswick Island from Edward Dawson-Damer to Sydney-based Chinese investors Greaton has received State Govenmemnt sign off.
In 2016 Keswick Island, a Great Barrier Reef island, was on the market with $30 million hopes.
Keswick Developments, owned by the Dawson-Damer family, was hopeful of attracting Chinese tourism interests. 
Keswick Developments is dieted by Edward Dawson-Damer, a former equerry to Queen Elizabeth.
Captain James Cook charted Keswick on his maiden voyage, but since the hilly island -- home to an extinct volcano -- has been sparsely occupier with only about 20 houses and permanent residents.
Cars are banned, with residents travelling by golf buggy on the island.
Keswick Developments obtained the head lease eight years ago after the previous owner, Peter Marshall, spent 20 years attempting to develop the island.
The new owner will have a 117-hectare development lease with the Queensland government until 2096.
The rest of the 517 hectare island is national park. 
The purchase will also give the buyer a 25-hectare seabed lease for a 180-berth marina and deep water jetty.
The mixed-use zoning on the sub-tropical island can accommodate 1000 dwellings and 3000 people. 
The island, 32 kilometres off the coast of Mackay, already has a sealed airstrip, 150 subdivided lots, and preliminary key infrastructure for ongoing development.
The local paper wrote Whitsunday MP Jason Costigan said he was aware of a number of ­issues on Keswick Island, and he hoped that the lease transfer would be “the start of an exciting new era”.
Costigan said it was a shame that many of the southern Whitsunday islands, including Keswick, St Bees and Brampton islands, had been underdeveloped in terms of their tourism potential.
Linc Energy founder Peter Bond has recently commenced a formal campaign to sell Dunk Island off Mission Beach on the Great Barrier Reef with expectations around $20 million.

Adelaide's General Post Office development scored a shot in the arm today with a hotel operator confirmed for project.

Marriott International Group will assume operating rights over the $200 million hotel development which is backed by developer Greaton. Overlooking Victoria Square, the Westin-branded outlet which is set to open during 2022 will include 285 rooms and in turn create 250 ongoing jobs upon its completion.

Westin's arrival follows on from Greaton's move to rework the development during April, applying for the right to deliver Adelaide's first five-star hotel. Approval was granted during May, subject to a number of conditions.

Hassell has undertaken design duties for the 16-level hotel which will see the existing General Post Office building refashioned to include retail spaces and associated hotel uses.

The mining company is slated to take 10,000 square metres, taking the tower's committed Net Lettable Area to beyond 90%. Contractor Built has the office tower's jump form above ground owing to its abbreviated delivery window, whilst the Westin hotel's 2022 targeted completion leaves it with additional breathing room in terms of a construction start.

Property developer Greaton has won the Deal of the Year award in the over $100 million transaction category for The Ribbon in Sydney's Darling Harbour at Hotels World 2017.
Greaton beat Novotel Melbourne On Collins, Travelodge Docklands, Intercontinental Sydney Double Bay, Hilton Melbourne South Wharf, W Melbourne and a portfolio of 15 Ibis Hotels to take the award.
Nicho Teng, Greaton managing director said it is a significant honour for Greaton to be awarded this accolade for The Ribbon.
"We are a very new player in the Australian hotel market, but intend to build our presence with several significant acquisitions over the next few decades," he said.
"The Ribbon will set a new benchmark for luxury hotels in Sydney and become a destination of choice by both locals and international tourists.
“The IMAX theatre site in Darling Harbour is one of Sydney’s most famous tourist areas.
"It was only fitting that one of Australia’s best hotels is positioned on this site.” 
John Smith, HotelsWorld Australia CEO said Greaton was against a strong field of major deals but was a stand-out.
"The Ribbon is an amazing transaction due to its unique nature, location and scale, all within what promises to be a timeless modern architectural masterpiece," he said.
"It is an important addition to the hotel market in Sydney, which needs more luxury hotels to meet burgeoning demand from local and overseas markets.”
The Ribbon features a 25 storey luxury hotel and the return of the IMAX theatre.

Developer Greaton has begun construction work on the $260 million Oxford Central residential and commercial development in Sydney's Epping.
Situated at 30 - 42 Oxford Street, Oxford Central comprises 252 luxurious apartments spread across two 17 storey towers, 292 car spaces and 625 sq m of retail on the ground level.
A two storey heritage building located on the site will also be retained and is part of the retail precinct.
An open air café area and public plaza will feature alongside the Heritage building which fronts the development and will be accessible to the public.
Greaton managing director Nicho Teng said this is a significant milestone for the business.
"Oxford Central is Greaton’s first major mixed use project in Sydney and marks the beginning of a very long journey to deliver community focused, quality lifestyle precincts," he said.
“We have hand-picked international award-winning builders and architects - Ceerose and Marchese Partners to ensure Oxford Central becomes an iconic structure on Epping’s skyline.
"Local purchasers have embraced the opportunity to be part of this landmark project.
“Sydney’s horizon is scattered with many cranes.
"We look forward to adding our cranes to the skyline as well as helping create hundreds of jobs for local contractors.
"The Sydney property market is very busy.
"We expect to announce new acquisitions in the near future which will further add to Sydney’s construction activity.”

Construction starts on Greaton's Oxford Central

Major construction work has commenced on the first phase of West Franklin, an urban regeneration project located in the West End part of Adelaide’s CBD.
The work is being carried out by Built Environs, who were awarded the $90 million contract earlier this year by global property development company Greaton. Hundreds of construction jobs will be generated during stage one, with over seventy subcontracting firms employed.
Situated on the corner of Franklin, Elizabeth and Morphett Streets, the new West Franklin precinct comprises 560 apartments and penthouses spread across four towers.
Residential facilities include a 20 metre wet edge lap pool, gym, spa, sauna, resident dining and lounge rooms, sky park with BBQ facilities and landscaped gardens, resident cinema, golf simulator and roof top bar showcasing views of Adelaide CBD, the ocean and Adelaide Hills.
“Greaton is helping stimulate the Adelaide economy by bringing this landmark project to life and creating hundreds of local jobs. West Franklin is located in an area that has been dormant for many years. The sheer size of this project will help activate this entire precinct,” commented Nicho Teng, managing director of Greaton.
“We are creating a new affordable urban lifestyle in West End that has never been seen before. West Franklin is expected to become an iconic lifestyle destination that the West End community will be very proud to call home,” he said.
West Franklin apartments have been pitched at the affordable luxury market to appeal to a broad cross section of purchasers, with over 70 per cent of stage one already sold. Local Adelaide architects Brown Falconer were chosen to lead the exterior design and interior fit-out.
Due to be completed early 2019, the first stage of West Franklin features 272 residential apartments spread across two towers. They both share a common podium comprising 1,100 sqm of retail on the ground level, resident facilities and car parking.
“The commencement of work on site is an important milestone for both Greaton and Built Environs,” added Daryl Young, Built Environs managing director.
“After the design finalisation phase and procurement of our key sub contracts it is exciting to see action on site,” he said.
