<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/broadbeach-qld-4218">Broadbeach</a> offers plenty of reasons to live vertically, but moving from a substantial family home into an apartment can expose the compromises of high-density living. Privacy, room for guests and usable living space tend to matter more when an apartment is intended as a permanent home rather than an occasional coastal base.

A typical residential floor at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-eveleigh-broadbeach-7-9-surf-parade-broadbeach-qld-4218">The Eveleigh</a>, on Surf Parade,&nbsp;contains just four apartments. The 94-residence development by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/hirsch-faigen">Hirsch &amp; Faigen</a> is predominantly made up of expansive three-bedroom homes, with a limited collection of half-floor penthouses above.

Across the apartment floors, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> has used the relatively limited number of residences to give each home greater access to natural light and outlook. Living spaces extend towards full-height glazing, while a series of bay windows frame selected views across the Pacific Ocean, city and hinterland rather than treating the building edge as a continuous wall of glass.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360965]

“The apartment floors deliver a collection of homes that embrace controlled outlook via a series of bay windows deliberately framing moments of view,” Rothelowman Director Kim Lowman said.

From outside, those projecting forms contribute to the tower’s faceted profile. Strong horizontal and vertical elements establish its proportions, while the changing position of the sun alters the light, shadow and reflection across the façade throughout the day.

The same attention moves inside the apartments, where the material palette combines warm timber, natural stone, metallic detailing and softer curved forms. Kitchens sit within the main living zone, with stone island benches, integrated joinery and European appliances, before the living areas extend towards the glazing and the outlook.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360981]

Three genuine bedrooms provide room to accommodate family and guests, while two secure car spaces and storage address some of the practical considerations that can become more noticeable when moving from a larger home. Feedback from the display suite has centred on the warmth and restraint of the interiors, with buyers commenting that the residences feel like homes rather than conventional coastal apartments.

A limited collection of half-floor penthouses occupies the upper levels, increasing the scale of the living spaces and adding private balconies and elevated finishes. From this position, the outlook extends between the ocean and hinterland.

Outside the private residences, The Eveleigh separates its shared spaces between the podium and rooftop. The podium is centred on wellness, with subtropical landscaping surrounding a swimming pool and pool terrace, yoga garden, private gymnasium, sauna and hot and cold plunge facilities. Landscaped retreats and pavilions provide additional places to sit away from the main recreation areas.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360966]

Higher in the building, a rooftop pavilion and private dining suite sit alongside resident lounge, barbecue and outdoor dining areas, opening towards panoramic views across the ocean, city and hinterland.

“Buyers are no longer just looking for an apartment, but a lifestyle where they can relax, reset, and enjoy a balanced way of living,” Hirsch &amp; Faigen Director of Sales Matt George said.

Interest to date has come from established owner-occupiers and interstate lifestyle purchasers, including buyers planning a future move to the Gold Coast. Many are coming from larger homes and want to reduce ongoing maintenance without giving up space for family and guests, privacy, two car spaces or the ability to entertain at home.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360969]

Much of that daily life can also take place beyond the building without requiring a drive. Kurrawa Beach and Pratten Park are an easy walk from Surf Parade, while Pacific Fair, Oracle Boulevard, The Oasis, restaurants, cafés, entertainment and public transport are also within walking distance.

The Eveleigh is Hirsch &amp; Faigen's fourth Gold Coast development since entering the market in 2021, following The Hemingway at Palm Beach, The Emerson at Kirra and Yves at Mermaid Beach. Each of the preceding projects sold out before completion.

“Broadbeach had been on our radar throughout our time operating on the Gold Coast,” the developer said. “Following our projects in Palm Beach, Kirra and Mermaid Beach, Broadbeach represented the natural next step for the business.”

The Surf Parade site brought together proximity to the beach, protected coastal outlooks and walkability to dining, shopping and recreation. Hirsch &amp; Faigen also identified the street as an emerging premium residential address, with enough separation from Broadbeach's busier destinations to retain a quieter environment at home.

The Eveleigh is now under construction by Maxcon, with completion forecast for mid-2028. Three-bedroom residences are currently available from $2.87 million.

The Eveleigh brings house-like apartments to Broadbeach

A long-stalled Campbelltown development site is back in play, with new plans for 139 apartments set to supersede a mixed-use scheme approved almost a decade ago but never built.

The new proposal for 28 Cordeaux Street would deliver 116 market and 23 affordable apartments in a part 14-storey building, bringing a substantial new project into a Campbelltown market where new apartment supply remains limited.

Plans have been filed over the 3,092 sqm corner site at Moore-Oxley Street, around 600 metres from Campbelltown Railway Station and the city-centre retail core.

The site already carries a mixed-use residential approval dating to 2016. Doroch Architects has now been engaged on a larger replacement scheme, which is progressing as a State Significant Development Application following a Housing Delivery Authority determination in August 2025.

The apartment mix comprises 39 one-bedroom, 72 two-bedroom and 28 three-bedroom residences. Two-bedroom apartments make up just over half of the project, while three-bedroom homes account for 20 per cent.

<img alt="First look: New 139-apartment plans revive long-stalled Campbelltown city centre site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="136dd5b9-3791-4da6-9e31-76f533f5b4de" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Campbelltown%20da2.png?VersionId=LgOSy9nwf5u.MGswBBwaGGxuX8QpHSl_" />

Of the 139 apartments, 23 will be delivered as affordable housing under the in-fill affordable housing provisions of the Housing SEPP. The affordable component represents 15 per cent of the residential gross floor area and will be managed by a registered Community Housing Provider.

Doroch has sought to break the scale of the building into two distinct elements, with a masonry podium of around four storeys establishing the street edge before the residential tower steps back above.

The corner position has shaped that approach. Cordeaux Street faces toward the commercial and civic centre, while Moore-Oxley Street leads into the lower-scale residential neighbourhood to the south, and the design verification report describes the site as "bridging the commercial core to the north and established residential areas to the south."

The podium will be expressed predominantly in face brick, while the upper levels shift to brushed and grooved concrete cladding with darker metal detailing. Recessed sections, deep balcony edges and landscaping break down the upper form, with an approximately 11.8-metre setback to the northern boundary addressing the adjoining St Peters Anglican School.

Campbelltown has been starved of new residential developments in the last decade.

The only other notable development set to come to market this year is ALAND's Queen Square, a mixed-use precinct on over two hectares that will comprise apartments above a vibrant ground-level retail and hospitality dining precinct.

First Look: Sherlock Construction pitches apartments for low-rise Deception Bay

Queensland builder-developer MAYD has revealed the first look at its major North Kirra beachfront development, lodging amended plans that reduce the number of apartments and increase the proportion of larger residences.

The project is planned across a substantial 4,742 sqm amalgamated site spanning seven lots at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/2-6-pacific-parade-bilinga-qld-4225">2-6 Pacific Parade</a> and 27-33 Golden Four Drive in Bilin​ga, directly opposite Nor​th Kirra Beach.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mayd-group">MAYD</a> secured the site for $32.5 million in 2025, in what was one of the Gold Coast's largest property transactions of the year.

The development will be delivered across two stages, with the first stage carrying an estimated gross realisation value of around $360 million.

The latest amendments seek to reduce the overall apartment count and shift the project further toward the owner-occupier market, with larger residences designed for buyers wanting considerably more space than traditionally offered in a beachfront apartment.

The residential mix will include townhomes, oversized two-bedroom apartments, substantial three-bedroom residences and four-bedroom homes.

MAYD has appointed Cera Stribley to lead the architecture and interiors, with the Melbourne-based design practice drawing on the beachfront setting through a series of ocean-facing terraces and heavily landscaped balconies.

Strong horizontal forms and curved balconies will define the exterior, with subtropical landscaping integrated throughout the building to soften the built form and increase the connection between the residences and the beachfront.

The project will also include an extensive collection of resident wellness and lifestyle facilities, continuing the broader shift across the Gold Coast's luxury apartment market toward larger homes supported by resort-style amenity.

<img alt="MAYD" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d1bcbb05-e659-4b47-8bd4-1e595315e2ad" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-27%20at%202.05.03%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=jj0XEud1X1DuLt7_KyElhjMdZGOXmLHP" />

MAYD Founder Todd Mould said North Kirra was increasingly appealing to buyers attracted to the more established, lower-density character of the southern Gold Coast.

"North Kirra presents one of the most compelling luxury residential opportunities currently emerging in Australia, combining absolute beachfront with the character and authenticity that buyers are increasingly seeking, and the same sense of tight-knit community that defined Burleigh and Currumbin perhaps 10 or 15 years ago," Mould said.

"With Gold Coast Airport on its doorstep, it also offers a level of accessibility that broadens its appeal across almost every market demographic."

The project comes as the southern Gold Coast continues to attract an increasing share of high-end apartment development and buyer activity.

Kirra in particular has emerged as one of the region's more tightly held beachfront markets, with its relatively low-density character, established surf and hospitality scene and proximity to Gold Coast Airport differentiating it from the higher-density markets further north.

Mould said those characteristics had informed the approach MAYD and Cera Stribley had taken to the project.

"We've worked closely with Cera Stribley to create a vision that is deeply connected to its surroundings," he said.

"Inspired by the coastline itself, the architecture has been shaped around space, privacy and resort-style living, creating a collection of homes that reflects the next generation of luxury on the southern Gold Coast."

MOTIV Managing Director Carly Cottam, who has been appointed to market the project, said buyer attention had continued to move south along the Gold Coast.

"Purchasers who may once have defaulted to Broadbeach, Main Beach or Surfers Paradise are increasingly recognising the value of a genuine beachfront location that offers lower density, strong amenity and a more established sense of community," Cottam said.

"Kirra has a powerful combination of growing demand and genuine scarcity. Beachfront supply is inherently constrained, the area remains relatively low density, and buyers are increasingly placing a premium on locations that feel established, uncrowded and authentic rather than heavily developed."

Cottam said the proximity to Gold Coast Airport was also proving increasingly important for interstate and second-home buyers.

"Being minutes from Gold Coast Airport makes it particularly compelling for interstate buyers, frequent travellers and second-home purchasers who can access an authentic coastal lifestyle almost immediately after stepping off a flight."

The acquisition takes MAYD's active development portfolio to more than $500 million, with the North Kirra project representing one of its largest undertakings to date.

MAYD is targeting an early 2027 launch.

First look at MAYD's North Kirra mixed-use precinct

<main data-perf-region="main">
Castle Hill, the longtime hub of the Hills District, has been one of the major beneficiaries of Sydney's Metro expansion, with improved connectivity helping drive continued population growth, development and buyer demand across the Hills District.

But despite that growth, the suburb has seen relatively few major new apartment projects brought to market over the past 18 months.

Hills District developer Reve Group is looking to fill that gap with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/nova-r-ve-castle-hill-2-garthowen-crescent-castle-hill-nsw-2154">Nova Rêve</a>, a major new mixed-use precinct on the corner of Garthowen Crescent and Old Castle Hill Road, a short walk from Castle Hill Metro Station and Castle Towers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377679]

The project will comprise three residential towers alongside a hotel, restaurants, cafes and a skybar, more than 1,600 sqm of ground-floor retail and almost an acre of landscaped gardens.

It represents the largest project undertaken by Reve Group, the development arm of the Kassis family, which has been building across the Hills District for more than 30 years through Kassis Homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377675]

Nova Rêve also represents a significant step up from the family's first apartment development, Grand Rêve, which was delivered nearby on Garthowen Crescent.

Grand Rêve introduced larger, house-like apartment layouts and premium inclusions including Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances to the Castle Hill market.

Nova Rêve takes that approach to a precinct scale, combining the residential component with hospitality, retail and substantial public and resident landscaping.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377685]

Reve Group Managing Director Sam Kassis said the project reflected the family's three decades of building in the Hills, which has evolved from trophy homes on quarter-acre blocks to larger-scale apartment development.

"Grand Rêve was our first apartment project here and it showed us what this pocket of Castle Hill could be. Nova Rêve is the refinement of that idea: not just apartments, but a place the whole suburb can use," Kassis said.

A key part of that approach is the hotel, which has been designed to operate as an amenity for the wider Castle Hill community rather than solely hotel guests.

It will include restaurants, cafes, skybars and all-day dining, alongside conference and event facilities catering to business functions, community groups and private events.

At ground level, more than 1,600 sqm of shops and cafes will open onto the surrounding streets and landscaped areas.

Almost an acre of gardens designed by Land and Form Studios will run through the precinct, incorporating pathways, seating, barbecue areas and children's play spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377680]

Reve Group's Romio Georges said creating an active ground plane had been central to the planning of Nova Rêve.

"There are gardens with pathways, barbecues, seating and play areas, shops and cafes opening onto the street, and a hotel with restaurants and a skybar that anyone in Castle Hill can walk into," Georges said.

The project's elevated position on one of Sydney's highest ridgelines will also provide apartments with outlooks toward the Sydney skyline, surrounding parkland and the Blue Mountains.

More than 80 per cent of the apartments will occupy corner positions, with Turner responsible for both the architecture and interiors.

Nova Rêve arrives as Reve Group bets on Castle Hill's next growth phase

KTQ Group

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

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

KTQ bring Kirra Point development forward by three years

It&#39;s a development that&#39;s been over two decades in the pipeline, and it&#39;s set to provide&nbsp;local and interstate prestige apartment seekers, and even tourists, something the Gold Coast hasn&#39;t seen before.

It was before the turn of the Millennium&nbsp;that the family behind the luxury hotel operator and apartment developer, KTQ,&nbsp;led by the visionary developer Peggy Flannery, started buying apartments on the dress circle Garfield Terrace, fronting Surfers Paradise beachfront. KTQ has now amassed a huge&nbsp;2,000 sqm corner site.&nbsp;

And now, after over 12 months of a rigorous design process, KTQ, who are behind the likes of Elements of Byron Bay and the Kirra Point development in Coolangatta,&nbsp;are announcing Serēn, a hotel and residences tower in one of the best spots in Surfers.

Serēn (pronounced serene),&nbsp;will comprise an independent luxury, 60-room hotel, with some suites offering over 100 sqm of living space. The hotel will occupy levels three to six, then above is the hotel and the residences pool and recreation decks. Then above the level nine wellness level are the 60 residences, the smallest on offer spanning a huge 350 sqm and offering three-bedrooms and a multi-purpose room.

Toward the pointy end of the 42-level tower will be full floor apartments and a special two-level penthouse.

The&nbsp;second level,&nbsp;above a new oceanway and fronting the beach, will feature&nbsp;a world class restaurant and bar, with gun-barrel views over the beach and the ocean and south to Coolangatta.&nbsp;

<a href="/new-apartments/seren-27-garfield-terrace-surfers-paradise"><img alt="" height="1258" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-08_at_10.47.27_am.png" width="2312" /></a> 
The pool for the residences. Image supplied

&quot;Serēn furthers KTQ&rsquo;s commitment to developing a legacy of superior properties that align with our values and aspirations,&quot; KTQ Director Peggy Flannery said.

&quot;We are delighted to be creating something truly inspired for this site with this exceptional team we have assembled.&rdquo;

Serēn&nbsp;is the brainchild of&nbsp;Little Boat Projects, the design-led studio headed&nbsp;by architects Michelle Donnelly and Mark Damant, who worked with the national architecture firm&nbsp;Bates Smart, the first Gold Coast project for the renowned practice.

Speaking to KTQ&#39;s Development Director Jeremy Holmes, it&#39;s evident KTQ and the design team has considered every little detail.

There will be little to no crossover between apartment residents and hotel guests, with seperate entry&#39;s, separate beach-facing swimming pools, and separate lift lobby&#39;s. The only thing they&#39;ll share is the wellness centre on level nine,&nbsp;which will feature an impressive gym and day spa, as well as the restaurant and bar, which&nbsp;will be available to the residents, hotel guests, and the general&nbsp;public. This &nbsp;will all be operated by KTQ once construction is complete.&nbsp;

The residences and hotel crossover will also see&nbsp;residents benefit from the hotel&#39;s concierge team. They can order room service from the restaurant, have taxis booked, and call on housekeepers come to their residences, among other complimentary services.

Holmes says the apartments will attract two different camps; owner-occupiers who may want&nbsp;to downsize or relocate to the beachfront, or fly-in, fly-out business people who might have the apartments as a coastal holiday home.

<a href="/new-apartments/seren-27-garfield-terrace-surfers-paradise"><img alt="" height="1508" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/ktq_facade.jpg" width="1200" /></a> 
Image of the hotel suites with the bar tucked in below. Image supplied

&quot;Imagine you&#39;re in one of the eastern seaboard capitals. You can have a housekeeper freshen the sheets before your arrival, have a bottle of your favourite wine airing, and even pre-order room service from the restaurant below.&quot;

Proof of the extensive consideration to every element of the apartment design is evident immediately.&nbsp;Out of the private lift lobby is storage, big enough to fit a surfboard or beach supplies.

Entry to the apartments is located in the middle of the apartment plan, but the clever design of the apartment means residents are welcomed with immediate ocean views, with the eye-line on arrival looking through the main living areas out to the ocean. An ocean-facing balcony opens from the lounge. Before getting to the living space there&#39;s a sand room for a post-beach dust&nbsp;down.

The&nbsp;multi-purpose room has been designed to offer a potential second living space, or guest room,&nbsp;which opens up to a second outdoor area, again featuring a clever design which can protect it from the elements. Dubbed a Belvedere, the 20 sqm space, which will home an outdoor barbecue kitchen, can be closed off to the wind and the rain, but still make residents feel like they&#39;re outside.

Two of the bedrooms are located at the rear of the apartment, both with five metre frontages of floor-to-ceiling windows to take in the views over the Nerang River and to the hinterland. The enormous master is at the front of the apartment, with its own walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. - spruce it up

&ldquo;As a client, KTQ continuously challenges and reinvents preconceived notions around what a building and development should be. Peggy approached this project as if she was designing something completely personal,&quot; Little Boat Projects Founder and CEO, Michelle Donnelly, said.

&quot;It was very important for her to envisage going on holidays or living at Serēn, occupying the space as if it was her own home.&rdquo;

After over 12 months of a rigorous design process, KTQ are announcing Serēn, a hotel and apartment tower in one of the best spots in Surfers.



KTQ set to bring Surfers Paradise the highest level of beachfront luxury

As they gear up to release something special to the Surfers Paradise beachfront, the family-ran KTQ Group are set to top off their hugely successful Miles Residences project at Kirra Beach.

KTQ, led by Peggy Flannery, has just released the special penthouse crowning Miles Residences, which sold out in just a couple of months after its launch in December 2020.

Miles Penthouse, the most&nbsp;elevated penthouse&nbsp;on the southern Gold Coast and priced at $16.75 million, has been two years in design to offer a complete custom residence.

The 760 sqm split-level penthouse will be made up of five ensuited bedrooms, a state-of-the-art gym, home office, three living areas, and a study.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27575 project_image_fid=187457]

The heart of the heart of the home if the open plan kitchen, living and dining area, which also homes a bar. The penthouse also features a rooftop entertaining deck, accessed by private lift and featuring a private pool, as well as offering unobstructed views north across Kirra Beach to Surfers Paradise&nbsp;and south to Snapper Rocks.

&ldquo;We purposely held back the release of this penthouse as it has been our passion to take advantage of this incredibly rare opportunity and create something of distinction overlooking Kirra beach,&rdquo; said Jeremy Holmes, Development Director of KTQ Group.

&ldquo;There will never be another penthouse of this calibre and position on the southern Gold Coast.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27575 project_image_fid=187456]

&ldquo;No detail has been overlooked, this penthouse contains every consideration for elevated coastal living including a secure seven&nbsp;car garage with storage.&rdquo;

The penthouse collection was initially devised as a duo; however, the second penthouse has been retained by&nbsp;Peggy and Brian Flannery.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27575 project_image_fid=138620]

&ldquo;We fell in love with the ambitious design of the penthouse, it became a passion project for us to devise the most indulgent home we could envision, and once we witnessed the finished product, we found ourselves too enamoured to give it up,&rdquo; Peggy Flannery said.

&ldquo;Such a remarkable destination demanded an equally scintillating residential offering, and so the penthouse was born from a desire to elevate the greatest natural assets on offer in Kirra.

Tim Keenan, of Keenan and Co who sold out all 118 apartments of Miles Residences as part of the $350 million redevelopment of the Kirra Beach Hotel, says prospects from around Australia have been aware the penthouse was coming to market.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve had some approaches from groups mindful that we would bring this to the market at some point, so there is definitely some keen interest,&rdquo; said Mr Keenan.

&ldquo;It really is an incredible, once in a lifetime offering and we expect very keen interest in the coming weeks.&rdquo;

Construction on Miles Residences is currently underway, with construction of the crowning penthouse due for completion in mid-2023.

“There will never be another penthouse of this calibre and position on the southern Gold Coast.”

KTQ release near $17 million Miles Residences, Kirra Beach penthouse

New South Wales investors have been on red alert since the launch of Miles Residences on the Gold Coast&#39;s Kirra Beach late last year.

Miles Residences, the apartment component of the luxury $180 million redevelopment of the Kirra Beach Hotel, are offering investors strong yields in one of the most sought-after locations in the country at the moment, with many forecasting the demand to continue for years to come.

The development of 118 apartments, which will sit above the new pub pavilion, is being developed by the Peggy Flannery-led KTQ Group, who are behind the award-winning Elements of Byron.

The affordable entry point has Sydneysiders considering an investment bolthole intrastate, with the option of taking a holiday or moving to the area permanently upon retirement.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27575]

KTQ have calculated solid net rental yields for investors based on a 75 per cent occupancy rate, which doesn&#39;t account for higher demand and peak rates over summer, school holidays and in particular Christmas.

The Real Estate Institute of Queensland predicts the relaxation of border restrictions will make it even harder to find a rental property on the Gold Coast. In November, the vacancy rate was 1.6 percent. Vacancy rates are predicted to remain as tight in 2021.

And Mark Smith from PRDnationwide Burleigh Heads, reckons the Gold Coast is very attractive, especially for investors.

&quot;Even with our market gaining and theirs falling, we still have a long way to go before we reach the level of unaffordability experienced in Sydney and Melbourne.&rdquo;

The Sea Apartment collection of Miles Residences, facing the beach, start from $545,000, considerably below Sydney&#39;s median apartment price of $755,360.

The one bedroom Sea Apartment, with an occupancy rate of just under 75 per cent for a calendar year, will offer investor owners a return of 6.7 per cent.

Based on an average daily rate of $220, the 82 sqm apartment will yield $1,157 a week and over $60,000 a year.

After the property management fees such as body corp, letting management fees and council rates, investors are likely to secure a net return of five per cent, just under $30,000.

With the same occupancy rate of 75 per cent, an investor would see a net return of over $39,000, a five per cent net return.&nbsp;

The two bedroom Sea apartments, with an internal area of 91 sqm and 33 sqm external, are priced from $795,000.

<h2>Stone Apartments</h2>

The larger Stone Apartments are forecast to see a net return of four per cent if a 75 per cent occupancy is achieved.

The two bedroom apartments with multi-purpose room, priced from $1.13 million, are set to command an average daily rate of $330, which would mean $1,736 a week and over $90,000 a year.
