<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/aura-by-aqualand-north-sydney-168-walker-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">AURA</a>&nbsp;doesn’t just rise over North Sydney, it redefines it. Now in its final release, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/aqualand-australia">Aqualand</a>’s $1 billion architectural statement is not just complete, but already reshaping the way people live, connect and dine in this rapidly evolving harbourside CBD.

Positioned beside the new Victoria Cross Metro Station and boasting panoramic views across Sydney Harbour, Aura’s 386 residences crown a mixed-use precinct designed with unapologetic ambition. The curvaceous sandstone-inspired form by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a>, paired with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/interior-designers/richards-stanisich">Richard Stanisich</a>’s understated interiors, sets a design tone that’s both monumental and intimate.

At its peak, literally, the two penthouses so spectacular they command their own names; La Davina and Il Magnate. The residents are spread across the&nbsp;entire top floor, offering what many consider the most refined residences ever built in North Sydney. Designed by Richard and Kirsten Stanisich, each four-bedroom home is meticulously crafted to evoke calm, space, and permanence.&nbsp;

The kitchens are fully wrapped in natural stone, with integrated Gaggenau appliances, Sub-Zero fridges, concealed sculleries, and even a zip hydro tap delivering boiling, chilled and sparkling water on demand. A linear stone fireplace anchors the open-plan living space, dividing lounge and dining zones with quiet sophistication.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30959 project_image_fid=292861]

The master suite, meanwhile, feels more like a private retreat, complete with a custom stone makeup vanity, walk-through dressing area, and spa-inspired ensuite with heated stone floors, a freestanding Villeroy &amp; Boch tub, and timber veneer joinery throughout.

Kirsten Stanisich, Director of Richards Stanisich, said the penthouses offer incredible scale reflective of a single residence.&nbsp;

“We sought inspiration for these remarkable residences from the classic top-floor Parisian apartment," Stanisich said.

"We looked at what made these French apartments so elegant and found it really came down to their scale. It was ultimately this generosity of space that we used for the AURA penthouses, where we’ve designed considered rooms with deep large-scale proportions."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30959 project_image_fid=310337]

Everyday living at Aura feels no less elevated. A dedicated 24-hour concierge, Technogym fitness centre, sky dining terraces, and a resort-style pool serve a lifestyle designed to rival luxury hotels.

At street level, Aqualand’s own hospitality arm, Etymon Projects, curates a precinct of LA-style bistros, Japanese fine dining, and local wine bars, all seamlessly integrated into the building’s sculptural podium.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30959 project_image_fid=310337]

This final chapter, aptly dubbed The Finale, is more than a sales phase, it’s an invitation to two of the most exclusive apartments ever to be built in North Sydney.

With limited residences remaining, buyers can access curated incentives including stamp duty rebates, rental guarantees, legal fee coverage, and even $20,000 towards dining within the precinct.

From generous one-bedders to The Icons, two singular penthouses priced well into prestige territory, Aura’s offerings reflect a scale and calibre rarely seen in urban Sydney. And with move-in now immediate, this is no longer a promise of future luxury. It’s happening.

Aqualand unveils penthouse collection at AURA By Aqualand in North Sydney

There’s no sign of the development wave that began several years ago slowing along Old Burleigh Road.

Around 10 new apartment developments are either underway or preparing to launch along the 800-metre strip stretching from the southern edge of Surfers Paradise towards the heart of Broadbeach, collectively adding just shy of 1,000 new apartments to the beachfront corridor.

The latest plans propose a further 30 apartments to replace an original six-unit walk-up on a 658 sqm site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/20a-old-burleigh-road-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">20A Old Burleigh Road</a>. The 14-storey building has been designed by Ferro Chow Architecture, which recently joined the Elevation Architecture Group.

The developer behind the project is Geoffrey Booth, whose Future Liv In has focused on delivering rental accommodation across regional Australia.

<img alt="Old Burleigh Road" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="99d393e7-d404-43bc-80cb-6255c39b83d6" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-01-05%20at%2012.28.44%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=ZFT8F3mOny4M4ut.kFF3woC9WH9oR5gT" />

The Old Burleigh Road development will comprise 18 two-bedroom apartments, 10 three-bedroom apartments, and a single four-bedroom residence occupying the entirety of level 12. Above, the building will be crowned by a two-storey penthouse with its own private lift, several multi-purpose rooms, and two rooftop terraces — one featuring a puppy lawn and spa, the other offering a private swimming pool, sunset deck, and built-in barbecue.

Resident amenities will be located on the second level and include a pool with adjoining spa, cabana, and pool deck, along with an indoor residents’ lounge featuring a bar and an alfresco barbecue kitchen.

In the architectural statement submitted by Elevation Architecture, the project is referred to as “UMI”, which the firm says has been “inspired by the majestic hinterlands and shaped by the coastal climate”.

“It is an exemplar of how community living can still feel at one with nature, breathable, and deeply connected in place,” the architects noted.

They added that the site benefits from established building separation to adjoining towers, helping to maintain privacy, sunlight, and residential amenity, while still offering direct beach access within an urban setting.

“Drawing inspiration from the Gold Coast hinterlands and the region’s natural landscape, the podium and tower detail highlights the contrasting elements of treetop green and cliff-face peach. The vibrant texture and materiality shaped by time has a richness in depth and character.”

Old Burleigh Road has become a hotspot for developers, with the three-tower Jewel development kickstarting a wave of projects up and down the strip when it was completed in 2020.

Currently under construction and approaching completion is <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/faro-broadbeach-123-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">FARO Broadbeach</a> by 5Point and Bottega, 21 large-scale half- and full-floor apartments. 5Point is also behind the recently launched <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/lumara-108-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">Lumara</a>, another 37 apartments to add to the pipeline.

Luxury builder GRAYA is progressing construction on <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/enclave-by-graya-118-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">Enclave</a>, its first Gold Coast tower, while Polycell remains the most active developer on the street. They are preparing to launch <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/sandpiper-broadbeach-155-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">Sandpiper</a>, a 50-storey redevelopment of the former Sandpiper Holiday Resort that will deliver around 200 apartments alongside extensive resident amenity. The group also has another 130-apartment project approved nearby, as does <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/qld/dvb-approved-for-second-broadbeach-apartment-development">Dean Gallagher’s DVB Projects</a>.

Sunshine Coast developer Habitat Development Group continues to position itself as one of the region’s largest new apartment developers.

Its latest project is in Maroochydore, where it is currently delivering <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-millwell-2-millwell-road-east-maroochydore-qld-4558">The Millwell</a>. Adjacent to the new 53-hectare Maroochydore City Centre project, Habitat is planning a further 180 apartments on a 3,468 sqm site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/132-136-aerodrome-road-maroochydore-qld-4558">132–136 Aerodrome Road</a>. The site was purchased with approval for a smaller 13-storey, 103-unit building.

Habitat will demolish the two existing retail centres, currently home to the Salvation Army Family Store and Neighbours Aid, and replace them with an 18-storey building featuring the significant rooftop amenities that have become a hallmark of Habitat developments in recent years. The rooftop will include both indoor and outdoor spaces, anchored by an infinity swimming pool.

<img alt="Maroochydore" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ad434d07-666b-4614-b33e-530ad6a2d261" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-01-05%20at%2010.12.33%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=7pyLsPWKQuwv0us3_v.9DmbzEc2VZe9Z" />

There will be a mix of one- to four-bedroom apartments.

The Development Assessment Report, submitted to the Sunshine Coast Council, says the proposal&nbsp;is not speculative, but a response to both zoning intent and demonstrated housing need.

“The proposed development represents an appropriate and logical intensification of the site, consistent with the planning framework and the intended urban outcomes for the locality.”

Across the Sunshine Coast, councils are increasingly scrutinising not just height or yield, but whether new projects genuinely align with the long-term structure plans underpinning growth corridors. The&nbsp;ASTP Planning Report&nbsp;reinforces the approach, noting that the project has been shaped around site responsiveness rather than generic typology.

“The development has been designed to respond to the physical constraints and opportunities of the site, while delivering a high-quality residential outcome that integrates with the existing and emerging urban context.”

<img alt="Habitat" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3a03fc54-4ca5-4868-88d0-eeced70604e2" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-01-05%20at%2010.12.28%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=1pkK3lJrrZjkghTLBReM2zatcas4Nc4B" />

In mid-2025, Habitat, a developer that also builds its own projects, commenced construction on The Millwell, located just over one kilometre from the new proposal. The Millwell will comprise more than 200 apartments across two eight-storey buildings.

Habitat also has two projects on Lake Kawana in Birtinya: <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/st-clair-birtinya-930-931-waterside-retreat-birtinya-qld-4575">St Clair</a>, a 200-unit, two-building development launched last year and set to welcome buyers this year; and Esperance, a 175-apartment project currently progressing through the development approval process.

John Camilleri, the breeder of legendary racehorse Winx, is set to deliver a landmark two-tower beachfront development that would redefine the Surfers Paradise skyline.

Camilleri, who spent around $100 million acquiring development sites across the Gold Coast in 2025, has lodged plans for two new towers on the dress-circle stretch of Garfield Terrace, just two days before Christmas.

In assembling the site, Camilleri's Celestino Developments has effectively acquired the 71 Garfield project by Iris Capital and AALTO by Weiya Holdings, creating an unrivalled <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/63-79-garfield-terrace-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">4,000 sqm beachfront holding along Garfield Terrace</a>.

The proposal comprises two residential towers of 55 and 48 storeys, linked by a dramatic skybridge which will home “exclusive VIP and wellness amenities.”

In total, the development would deliver 275 two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments across the two towers, rising above a shared landscaped podium that incorporates a central green space and a beachfront swimming pool stretching more than 90 metres.

<img alt="DBI" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="097900f3-6bef-4919-b168-b08f2f762876" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-30%20at%209.37.58%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=et0SpmcvaPPVrexI_zWi46BVFtZBxAzx" />

Architecture firm DBI, in documents submitted to Gold Coast City Council, said the project at 63–79 Garfield Terrace would “establish a new benchmark for beachfront residential living on the Gold Coast.”

"The project occupies a rare, uninterrupted oceanfront site and has been shaped by a design philosophy that merges architectural elegance with environmental responsiveness and a carefully curated lifestyle experience. Together, the 48-storey North Tower and 55-storey South Tower form a distinctive twin-tower composition whose dynamic silhouette will make a significant contribution to the Surfers Paradise skyline."

DBI said the architectural language draws inspiration from the fluidity and movement of the coastal landscape.

"Each tower is defined by organic, curving forms and continuous balcony ribbons that wrap the buildings, providing deep shading, enhancing environmental performance, and reinforcing the rhythmic, sculptural expression of the façade. These balcony forms also reduce the apparent mass of the towers while maintaining strong visual continuity from podium to summit. Sculpted reflective downturns run along the western spine of both towers, shifting and lifting as they extend upwards to frame service zones and open eastward to maximise ocean views."

<img alt="Garfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a2a00ce3-a0e9-45d6-b4b5-b7baed592ac5" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-30%20at%209.53.40%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=DnruWV1dhLrtXOeElwekyd7vPq2gw55t" />

The project’s most striking feature is the skybridge at level 45, which will house executive lounges, formal dining spaces, wellness facilities and panoramic ocean-facing views.

“The skybridge enhances the identity of the development, promotes social interaction, and delivers a lifestyle experience not found elsewhere on the Gold Coast,” DBI added.

The podium will host an extensive suite of recreational amenities, including resident lounges, private dining rooms, a large open green lawn, and the signature 90-metre pool stretching along the beachfront. The pool is divided into lap, lounge and children’s zones.

The southern end of the podium will accommodate additional wellness facilities, including a gymnasium, plunge pools, treatment rooms and a dedicated yoga lawn.

<img alt="Garfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ee1b4f25-231f-4804-83b1-a573a1481962" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-30%20at%209.55.47%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=zObzIA3D5w7EwqPsHjr2pKrA4vbB28zL" />

There will be 127 apartments in the North Tower and 148 in the South Tower, including multiple penthouses, while the Enderley Avenue and Oceanway frontages will be activated by a series of food and beverage tenancies.

Camilleri emerged as the most active site acquirer on the Gold Coast in 2025. He spent just over $30 million acquiring Pacific Point, a 10-level Surfers Paradise apartment block and an adjoining three-level duplex, from fellow racing identity and Aquis billionaire Tony Fung. Plans are now underway for a 93-apartment, 40-storey tower on the 1,682 sqm site.

He also paid $53.65 million for the 1,500 sqm Garfield Terrace site previously marketed as AALTO by Weiya Holdings, before acquiring the adjoining parcel from hotel billionaire Sam Arnaout’s Iris Capital, the developer behind V&amp;A Broadbeach.

The Melbourne-based HLA Group is the latest developer to expand into South East Queensland, lodging plans for a unique mixed-use short-term accomodation and apartment building in Taringa, with the building design inspired by the Glasswing Butterfly.

The development application for 10 Morrow Street seeks approval for a total of 232 dwellings, comprising 116 residential apartments and 116 short-stay accommodation units. The build-to-sell residential component is made up of 31 one-bedroom apartments, 67 two-bedroom apartments, 17 three-bedroom apartments, and a single four-bedroom apartment, offering a diverse mix aimed at singles, couples, families, and downsizers.

<img alt="Taringa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="33913cd4-9839-4456-b325-d35b3f8b4694" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.40.26%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=sLvc7jUrYzDwqPDZBPrXTosKHDSp.qrt" />

Designed by Ellivo Architects, the tower takes strong inspiration from nature, with the architectural language driven by one of Queensland’s most delicate species. As described in the planning documents submitted to Brisbane City Council, Ellivo Architects state the design is “inspired by the elegance of the Glasswing butterfly," and mirrors the graceful sweep of its wings, a form that feels light, fluid, and alive.

“Lush subtropical greenery is throughtfull woven throughout, transforming the building into a sanctuary in the heart of the city.”

The proposal positions the building as more than a conventional residential tower, with Ellivo Architects describing 10 Morrow Street as “an urban oasis that blends short term accomodation with residential living. A destination for rest, relaxation, and renewal.”

<img alt="Taringa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="84e9a0ff-464e-4973-bffe-5d5a8fe9f087" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.40.32%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=dhX9eVgUaQE2TvCzJPhF8N8_hzYSKpyK" />

Formally, the building’s massing and floorplate are directly shaped by its butterfly inspiration. Ellivo explain that, “adopting the wings of the Glasswing Butterfly, the tower's plan is divided into four distinct quadrants, each shaped to mirror the wing's segmented geometry and taking the slender ‘veins’ up the facade of the tower.”

"This approach results in a sculpted tower form with articulated façades and a strong vertical expression."

<img alt="Taringa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="5947011d-ff6c-4a57-bdc1-9072a472a79c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.40.29%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=nnGqd4WCZM8AOJZY.c3u49BO4LurKRhb" />

The Assessment Report by Human Habitats said the 19-storey tower capitalises on its strategic connectivity and prominence at the entrance of Taringa Village and adjoining the Taringa Station.

"The proposal offers a significant revitalisation of the subject site that integrates architectural excellence, innovation, and sustainable design to directly address long-standing connectivity and safety challenges, housing supply , and diversity together with enhanced streetscape activation and convenient access to major transport corridors."

HLA Group Australia is registered to South Yarra and is currently delivering Adamson No.5, just 15 luxury apartments that start from around $2 million.&nbsp;

The Butterfly Effect: Glasswing butterfly inspires Taringa apartment development

Mirvac

This week marks the opening of their 9 new apartments for young women experiencing homelessness&nbsp;&nbsp;

Opening September 17, <a href="https://bridgeit.org.au/">Bridge It</a>, a charity providing homes for young women (ages 17-21) who have experienced the out-of-home care system or homelessness, has partnered with <a href="https://www.housingfirst.org.au/work-with-us">HousingFirst</a> to extend their capacity from 7 to 16 studio apartments within their supportive housing program, “The Cocoon.”&nbsp;

With 38,000 young people aged 15–24 years sleeping on the streets, couch surfing, and shelter hopping, heavily impacted by the exponential rise in rental prices, coupled with record-low vacancy rates, Bridge It’s CEO and founder, Carla Raynes can see clear gaps in government funding and policy that leaves residents like hers falling through the cracks.&nbsp;&nbsp;

"With systemic underfunding across the homelessness sector, radical collaboration is key. We simply can’t expect the government alone to fix this crisis,” states Carla. “Our goal at Bridge It is to replicate Cocoon's success nationwide, ensuring every state has a Cocoon so young women can access this transformative program.”&nbsp;&nbsp;

"Homelessness in Victoria rose 24% at the last Census, and we need to act now to ensure that we don’t end up with more children and young people without a home. Across 20 years in the sector, I have never seen anything like the Cocoon. The support we provide is holistic and wraps around our young residents in every area of their lives. In our pilot phase, we provided a home to 11 young women and transitioned from our accommodation into the housing of their choice. We refuse to give up on our young people.”&nbsp;&nbsp;

Since launching in 2021, Bridge It has raised a huge $2.5M in donations from generous donors,&nbsp; foundations and corporates including Sir Richard Branson, Mirvac, ANZ, Westpac and AMP to fund the Cocoon project. This funding supports young women to stay in the residence for 12-18 months, providing time to stabilise, learn life and living skills and move positively into adulthood.&nbsp;&nbsp;

<img alt="Bridge It" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/Screenshot%202024-09-15%20at%202.54.14%20pm.png?VersionId=vKxfHCe71jozEi.aUn7kyT0vp1zbl8yV" />

This project marks a private sector, charity, and social services collaboration that integrates lived experience mentoring, therapies like acupuncture, and activities such as zoo visits and cooking lessons, paving pathways to independent housing and employment. Bridge It has had a 100% success rate in its beta program where they placed all 11 Cocoon residents into secure housing. If adopted nationally, this model could be crucial in ending youth homelessness in Australia.&nbsp;

The expansion marks a milestone in Cocoon’s efforts to provide safe, supportive spaces for Australian youth; made possible through a partnership between Bridge It and Housing All Australians who engaged industry leaders: Mirvac, Dulux, RPS, K2LD, Simon Ellis, Apartments.com.au and many others who have donated pro bono work and products valued at $1.5M. &nbsp;

Elysa Anderson, General Manager Residential Victoria and Western Australia at Mirvac&nbsp; highlights their commitment: "Mirvac is proud to collaborate with Housing All Australians and&nbsp; Bridge It to refurbish these apartments, aiming to provide a new home and supportive&nbsp; community for young people transitioning from care."&nbsp;&nbsp;

Mirvac has officially completed The Langlee and Waverley Greens, transforming the former Waverley Bowling Club into a new lifestyle and residential precinct featuring 55 luxury apartments, a contemporary hospitality venue, bowling greens and community hub with an estimated total development value of around $170m.

The Langlee was developed to target the downsizer. It's been completed at a time when almost a third of the Australian population aged over 55 is considering downsizing and a further 26 per cent have already made the move, freeing up the family home to allow the next generation of families to move in.

The ‘right sizer’ movement, enhanced further by the Federal Government’s downsizer scheme, promotes housing efficiency in a supply-constrained market. In NSW, more than 1.4 million people occupy a three or four-bedroom home on their own, or as couples without children. And nearly three-quarters of them are aged over 55 years. In Sydney’s eastern suburbs, the population aged 55-79 has grown by 8.3 per cent3 since the last Census in 2016.

<img alt="Langlee" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="bff12f01-0a8f-4f92-91d7-57267a8c1b80" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Langlee.jpg?VersionId=fkaVpEgETg8Yv_RnX5b7Ja78gt_T63ji" />

Mirvac CEO Development Stuart Penklis said Mirvac’s partnership with the Easts Group has focused on delivering a project that unlocks much-needed right-sizer accommodation in a highly desirable location, whilst also creating a premium venue befitting the local Eastern Suburbs community.

“Mirvac has a long history of working with partners such as the Easts Group to unlock and transform sites like these in inner Sydney, to deliver precincts of exceptional quality and great design that residents and the local community can enjoy,” Penklis said.

“When we partnered with the Easts Group, we wanted to create an amenity-rich lifestyle for the over 55s that offered the best blend of both convenience and comfort, which we have delivered in The Langlee. On top of that, we set out to create a premium destination in the east that the community can enjoy – for bowls, a family meal or a coffee with friends - with Waverley Greens.”

Easts Group CEO Joe Kelly said they set out to celebrate the site’s unique heritage while setting new benchmarks for innovation, sustainability, and the high-quality built form.

"Mirvac was perfectly positioned to reimagine this iconic location with us," Kelly said.

“The seamless integration of Waverley Greens and The Langlee residences and likeness to the architect’s vision and artist’s impressions is incredible, and a testament to the delivery of the project by Mirvac.

“The Waverley Bowling Club was formed in 1893 and is the sixth oldest bowling club in Sydney, and we’re thrilled to have played a small part in ensuring that they could celebrate their 130th year milestone. Our Waverley Bowling Club Members now have one of the best facilities in Sydney and an incredibly bright future ahead.”

The one-hectare site features an indoor/outdoor café, restaurant and bar situated on the ground floor, fronted by two bowling greens, as well as 55 premium residences, a 20-metre indoor lap pool, treatment and steam rooms, and a mezzanine level gym. A personalised wellbeing concierge service delivered by Zinnia Living will benefit residents whilst moving in.

Along with lifestyle features and amenities, Mirvac has worked to lighten The Langlee’s environmental footprint through sustainable building practices and cost saving benefits for residents.

The Langlee by Mirvac maximises available roof space to house solar panels, with a ~120kW system installed which will significantly offset the running costs of the common area facilities, reducing ongoing energy costs to residents and the Club. Electric Vehicle (EV) charging for every residential car space has been included as an option for customers, and water and energy efficient appliances have also been installed. The Langlee has been designed by Altis Architecture in collaboration with Mirvac Design.

By 2066, it is forecasted older people in Australia will make up around 22 per cent of the total population. Penklis says concurrently the trend to downsize will gain further momentum.

"The Langlee offers prospective purchasers an attractive downsizing option with a difference," Penklis added.

<img alt="Langlee" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="6d9c4e2b-3411-47bf-80f0-e21a6fca35ba" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Langlee%204.jpg?VersionId=zwi0sQsK.J22G2F7UnapiqTDch4EMgRp" />

“An over 55s residence has significant value to the wider community and allows for transition of housing stock by allowing downsizers to remain in their locality and enjoy a maintenance free environment with state-of-the-art facilities, and in turn on-sell their larger family home to the next generation of families, returning much-needed established housing to the market.

“The Langlee highlights our capability as specialists in precinct delivery and partnerships, a result of our best-in-class integrated model and expertise that spans the residential, retail, industrial, commercial and mixed-use sectors. We are also highly selective in the partners we choose to work with, and our reputation for quality underpinned by Australia’s only iCIRT 5 Gold Star rating means customers can be confident in the product and lifestyle Mirvac creates."

The Langlee is one of 16 residential projects Mirvac has in the pipeline across NSW, with the group set to deliver around 1,200 new homes to buyers in residential communities and apartments across the state over the next year, injecting much-needed diverse housing options into a tightly constrained housing market.

The ‘right sizer’ movement, enhanced further by the Federal Government’s downsizer scheme, promotes housing efficiency in a supply-constrained market

Mirvac cater for right-sizers at Waverley Bowling Club's new lifestyle precinct, The Langlee

Leading Australian property developer <a href="/developers/mirvac">Mirvac</a> has opened the first stage of its sporting precinct&nbsp;at its 465-hectare <a href="/new-townhouses/evergreen-collection-townhouses-olivine-by-mirvac-donnybrook">Olivine masterplanned community in Donnybrook</a>.

Delivered in partnership with the City of Whittlesea, who will manage and operate the facility, the first stage of Olivine’s sporting precinct, to be known as Olivine Recreation Reserve, was officially unveiled in October, providing state-of-the-art amenity for the fast-growing neighbourhood in Melbourne’s north.

As part of Stage 1, local residents can now utilise the $4.5 million Sports and Community Pavilion, as well as netball and futsal courts, cricket nets, dog park, barbecue areas and a playground. Mirvac is working closely with the City of Whittlesea to deliver Stage 2 of the Sporting Precinct which will include two ovals, anticipated to commence construction in the coming months.

Read more:&nbsp;<a href="/news/vic/how-mirvac-is-improving-the-lifestyle-of-residents-of-the-donnybrook-community-olivine">How Mirvac is improving the lifestyle of residents of the Donnybrook community, Olivine</a>

Mirvac’s General Manager of Residential Victoria, Elysa Anderson, explains that the highly anticipated facilities are part of Mirvac’s commitment to developing sustainable communities that drive social connectivity and a healthy lifestyle.

“Mirvac is passionate about reimagining urban life in Melbourne’s North and we are proud to deliver the first stage of Olivine’s Sporting Precinct, in partnership with the City of Whittlesea, for the 1,600 residents now living at Olivine, as well as the wider community,” Anderson said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134733 project_image_fid=205834]

“The new Sports Precinct is an important part of community building for Olivine’s growing neighbourhood and the surrounding areas, and we hope it provides a new destination and home for local sports teams and community groups, allowing residents to connect with family and friends and enjoy an active lifestyle.”

At the heart of Olivine’s Sporting Precinct is the Sports and Community Pavilion designed by Canvas which features two wings connected by an archway, providing a viewing area, shade, shelter and seating for the two future ovals and neighbouring amenities.

The northern wing will feature a multi- purpose community area, while the southern wing will include change rooms and amenities for the cricket nets, netball courts and future AFL ovals. Each building is fully electric, with solar panels sized to provide 100 percent of the expected average daytime use of the facilities.

<img alt="Mirvac" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a1f22bf6-6662-4bd6-a3a6-54dfc0847ffa" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-01%20at%2010.39.12%20am.png?VersionId=18bhdQVdYDXni8SZ4VUNnQ.E0crgWHTJ" />

An internal shared path network connects the Sports and Community Pavilion with the other amenities, including fitness stations, respite areas and a fenced, off leash dog park. The dog park features open clearings of over 50 metres in length, ‘airlock gates’ for additional safety and a shaded area for dog owners to congregate.

Through the centre of Olivine’s Sporting Precinct is a grove of 200-year-old red river gum trees which have inspired the landscaping completed by landscape architects MDGLA. Indigenous and native tree species have been planted throughout the Sporting Precinct, including a range of shrubs and tufting plants that are drought tolerant and allow for visibility across the precinct.

The facilities join a range of existing amenity at Olivine, including Olivine Place, Shared Cup social enterprise café and Gumnut Park &amp; Adventure Playground. They also join Olivine’s world class Education Precinct which includes Hume Anglican Grammar’s Donnybrook campus, Donnybrook Primary School, Eucalyptus Parade Kindergarten and Wallaby Childcare Donnybrook.

Mirvac has also submitted a planning permit application for the future Local Town Centre, with the City of Whittlesea following resident consultation. Mirvac is aspiring to bring a mixed retail offering to the new town centre, including two supermarkets, dine in and takeaway restaurants and personal care and medical services.

Upon completion, Olivine will comprise in excess of 4,000 lots and will be home to around 11,000 residents with 120-hectares of land dedicated to open space and conservation.

This display suite is stunning.

First up, we have the kitchen in the Celestial palette, which features warm hues of muted ochre and burnt sienna. With over 50 years of experience, Mirvac know you want to see more than one design scheme in real life. I love the unique curved natural stone and the shaker cabinetry, which is paired with these striking custom handles.

This kitchen is in the Sanctuary palette, with pale eucalypt and paperbark tones, taking cues from Australia's bush landscape. Moving along, we've got a generous dining area that can comfortably seat up to 8 people, which flows perfectly to the lounge for post-dinner relaxation and socialising.

The display suite also has one full-sized bedroom, and a pretty impressive walk-in wardrobe featuring custom timber joinery and full-height mirrors. While in the ensuite, the green stone really pops, giving the space a lovely sense of playfulness and style. The fully electric building, is set to achieve an average 7-star NatHERS rating, with solar panels on the roof which will assist to power the common areas, which will in time reduce owners corp fees for residents.

ASX-listed developer Mirvac has topped out the second and final stage of its $790m NINE by Mirvac residential community in Willoughby.

When completed in early 2024, Stage 2 will comprise 214 dwellings across five residential buildings, as well as a community pavilion for both residents and the local community.

The residential community occupies the 3.2-hectare site of the former Channel Nine television studios, six kilometres north of the Sydney CBD. NINE by Mirvac has 442 apartments across 10 buildings.

Mirvac General Manager Residential Development NSW Toby Long said the topping out of Stage 2 was another demonstration of Mirvac delivering for its customers while ensuring quality in every detail.

“We acquired a site that was closed to the public for almost 70 years and we’re thrilled to be one step closer to transforming it into a place that not only residents but the widercommunity can enjoy,” Long says.

“NINE by Mirvac is a testament to our commitment to the Sydney housing market. Given our best-in-class 5-star iCIRT rating, buyers can be assured they are getting an industry-leading quality product.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93788 project_image_fid=186245]

NINE will also include two proposed food and beverage tenancies, a 1,000 sqm retail/commercial building and 6,500 sqm of open space. The new community has been popular with local downsizers and young families attracted by the Mirvac design quality and the extensively landscaped surroundings.

The five buildings in Stage 2 - ranging in height from four to nine storeys - comprise a mix of one, two and three-bedroom residences, including penthouses with sweeping district views.

The buildings are an expression of distinctively timeless architecture created by the award- winning Mirvac Design Team in collaboration with architects CHROFI.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93788 project_image_fid=216656]

The Committee for Sydney (2022) estimates there is a historical under supply of about 96,000 dwellings in Sydney with data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics and Urban Development Institute of Australia NSW (UDIANSW) showing apartment approvals still remain 60 per cent below their 2018 peak.

“With NINE by Mirvac here in Willoughby, and the recent topping out of three buildings at Green Square, Zetland, we are not only generating more places close to the city for Sydney-siders to call home, but also fostering communities that will meet the needs of its residents for years to come," Long added.

"Our commitment could not be more important as we play our part in resolving the housing affordability crisis."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93788 project_image_fid=216658]

Mirvac General Manager National Design Brett Crellin says since 1972, Mirvac has been providing much-needed, and much-loved, homes for Australians and that that experience is invaluable, especially in the current crisis.

“We consider the quality of the material to extract the best value from it. We've got 50 years of experience delivering buildings, and we always strive for excellence that’s above and beyond. The team has been incredibly focused on leaving a beautiful legacy,” Crellin says.

“The level of design detail which has gone into delivering the vision has set a new precedent within our residential portfolio.” Mirvac’s five decades of experience are evident in the care and attention paid to social connectivity and well-being through the inclusion of The Gateway Hub, a multi-function space for residents and the local community. It features an open-air pavilion with a green roof, outdoor terrace seating and servery facilities, underlining the community values at the heart of NINE by Mirvac.

Stage 1 at NINE by Mirvac is anticipated for completion in Spring 2023 and Stage 2 is due for completion in early 2024.

Mirvac's coveted Voyager residences are generating significant buzz as limited opportunities remain to secure a place in the development.

Nestled in the prestigious Yarra's Edge precinct, Voyager offers contemporary interiors, exceptional amenities, and a prime location just 2.4 kilometres from Melbourne's CBD.

With sweeping views across the Melbourne skyline and Port Phillip Bay, Voyager presents a range of exclusive living options, with only a few two-bedroom apartments and three-bedroom townhomes remaining.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3494 project_image_fid=213139]

Voyager residents, Rebecca and Alastair, had lived in Australia for 10 years when they decided it was time to finally set roots in the country. They purchased an apartment on floor 31 of Voyager, highlighting the panoramic views as a major drawcard in their decision.&nbsp;

“The rooftop is just amazing. The views are spectacular, when I first went up there I cried, it was that amazing,” Rebecca said.&nbsp;

“It’s got so many amenities, there’s a yoga lawn, little seating areas.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3494 project_image_fid=213134]

The level 43 Resident Skydeck&nbsp;features a dining room with a chef's kitchen and a cinema room. There's further amenity in the lobby, where there's a concierge, an art gallery, and a lounge room with a fireplace.

Alastair said moving to Voyager has felt like a sea change.

"We’ve got floor to ceiling light that comes in first thing in the morning, and then being able to watch the sunset through the windows at night, it’s amazing.”&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3494 project_image_fid=213143]

In addition to these amenities, Voyager residents enjoy access to the Wharf Club, a pool, and gym facility located just a short stroll from the lobby entrance.

Beyond the confines of Voyager, the award-winning Yarra's Edge precinct awaits. Lush established parklands, playgrounds, waterfront boardwalks, and cycling paths create an environment perfect for relaxation and outdoor activities.

Health and wellness centres, retail outlets, dining options, and the nearby Marina YE further enhance the convenience and desirability of the location.

The remaining two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments are priced from $885,000 with a car space. The three-bedroom, three-bathroom townhomes, which have two car spaces, start from $1,515,000.&nbsp;

How Voyager feels like a sea change: Remaining apartments at Mirvac's Voyager at Yarra's Edge

Mirvac has officially launched Trielle, it's last residential tower in their $1.4 billion Yarra's Edge masterplan precinct on the Docklands waterfront.

A hundred gathered on a sunny day at the Trielle Display Galleria at 16 Point Park Crescent, where prospective buyers were greeted with tantalising electro-acoustic harp-music and champagne as they entered the crystalline façade of the Trielle Display Galleria on the day of its long-awaited Grand Opening.

Guests were treated with cooking demonstrations by Emma Rosen on the sub-penthouse Bora induction cook top with downdraught exhaust, an example of Mirvac Design's detail in Trielle's highly sculptural kitchens.

High-end designer furniture firm Mobilia, good friend and partner of Vogue Living who were involved in the curation of iconic furniture for the Display Galleria, delivered an inspiring masterclass on the design legends past and present such as Patricia Urquiola and Mario Bellini and their timeless furniture that have completed the vision that Mirvac's in-house design had for the Display Galleria experience.

Mirvac launch Lunar New Year offer on final two-bedroom apartments at FORME Doncaster

ASX-listed developer Mirvac has revealed its $350 million luxury residential tower, Trielle, the tallest building to be introduced to their multi-award-winning Yarra’s Edge community in Melbourne.

Formerly referred to as Tower 9, the 45-level tower will be the jewel in the crown of the vibrant precinct, commanding an unrepeatable waterfront position on the Collins Street axis of Melbourne, just 12.5 metres from the Yarra River.

Trielle will feature the most abundant amenity offered to date.

Residents will have access to a library and work pods, the Saletta Business Lounge, a piano bar with self-playing piano, a&nbsp;wine cellar, games room and cocktail bar, theatre, and a golf simulator.

There's also the Oasis Retreat, complete with&nbsp;urban rainforest gardens, a Scandinavian-inspired wellness centre, 25-metre pool, magnesium pool, spa, sauna, cold-pailing and treatment rooms.

<img alt="Trielle" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="40b1ab35-52e2-4acf-b3e2-35e25ebe09cf" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-12-19%20at%2012.05.30%20pm.png?VersionId=2syZpjAGjF.aSJ4e0r51kb5_aubXLj2m" />

Mirvac’s announcement follows planning amendment approval received earlier this year, with Mirvac’s General Manager, Residential Development Victoria, Elysa Anderson, saying the upcoming launch in 2023 of Trielle demonstrated prospective purchasers’ ongoing appetite for premium, lifestyle-focused apartments.

“Market vacancy across the east coast residential market has fallen to around 1.5%, new apartment starts are at lowest levels seen since 20122 , and with the recent increase of permanent migration caps, we are seeing an acceleration in population growth, Anderson says.

"Discerning buyers are acting decisively in the tightening market to secure quality, larger apartments setting themselves up for future growth.

“In particular we are seeing demand from customers that are wanting to downsize – especially when presented with a compelling value proposition like Trielle, in a location with so much going for it.”

Anderson said Trielle will likely appeal to a broad owner-occupier demographic, most predominantly the right-sizer buyers looking for a new lifestyle offering, close to the city, with unrivalled amenity. Anderson is anticipating out-of-towners looking for a city base, and experienced apartment dwellers looking to upgrade, to make up a good portion of demand.

<img alt="Trielle 2" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="81af8803-29d9-4a03-8fb5-76038b78bec5" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-12-19%20at%2012.05.40%20pm.png?VersionId=U45uaf2yXJ6SrSLiVatI7Z4TAFMua5L0" />

“Our highly anticipated Trielle tower will deliver a legacy project to our vibrant waterfront precinct and draws on our 50 years of experience to offer a new level of prestige and sophistication in apartment living in a location like nothing else in Melbourne,” Anderson added.

With architecture and interiors by Mirvac’s award-winning in-house design team, Mirvac Design,&nbsp;Trielle tower will combine its exclusive location and north-facing riverfront orientation, with 191 apartments, a nine-level podium, ground-level retail space and above-ground parking.

The all-electric tower has also been designed to go beyond current sustainable building codes and will evolve under construction, with a centralised electric heat pump hot water system, rainwater and stormwater storage and reuse and induction cooktops as standard.

Mirvac Design Director, Michael Wiener, said the tower was “jewel-like” in appearance, faceted like a gem, with an angular glazed façade to reflect light and “shine like a diamond.

“Trielle offers riverside rarity and timeless luxury with impeccable craftmanship,” Wiener said.

“The design hinges on the waterfront aspect of Trielle, its view of the city and its commanding presence on the city’s skyline. There is no other site like it in Melbourne that brings together the city, the river and the sky in such a striking way.

<img alt="Trielle 3" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="261078d6-8cdb-4492-ba95-2d352e542a33" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-12-19%20at%2012.05.35%20pm.png?VersionId=0VtW2DjRaG0Dr1XsWh32EOpPNcgKEV4x" />

“Trielle will create breathtaking moments for residents, evoking a response of pride of ownership. Residents will be proud that they are a part of something truly beautiful and unique.”

Trielle’s landscape design will flow from the promenade and through the building, creating an ‘urban forest’ at Yarra’s Edge, that is continued throughout the building’s common areas.

“Trielle’s amenity is focused on making time for wellness,” Mr Wiener said. “The level of luxury and amenity is unprecedented, with a particular focus on celebrating life’s most precious commodity – time – freeing residents up to make time for what matters most, their health and wellbeing.”

Trielle will join Mirvac’s impressive Victorian apartments portfolio, which encompasses Voyager at Yarra’s Edge, The Eastbourne’s luxury residences in East Melbourne, and the recently topped-out Forme at Apartments of Tullamore in Doncaster.

Yarra’s Edge is a coveted 14.5-hectare inner-city waterfront community located on the north-facing bank of the Yarra River that has been developed by Mirvac for more than 20 years.

Now home to over 3,000 residents, Yarra’s Edge is anticipated to include 2,300 dwellings once complete. Designed around wellbeing, Yarra’s Edge already features extensive parkland, state-of-the-art health and fitness facilities at Wharf Club and a marina, with future plans for a boutique retail hub to serve the local community, the broader Fishermans Bend, and Docklands catchment areas.

Expressions of interest are now being registered for Trielle by Mirvac, with the official launch planned for early 2023 and construction anticipated to commence in mid to late 2023.&nbsp;

Formerly referred to as Tower 9, the 45-level tower will be the jewel in the crown of the vibrant precinct, commanding an unrepeatable waterfront position on the Collins Street axis of Melbourne

The amenity offering in residential developments is always a hot topic, with many developers of late forming their own exclusive clubs within their projects.&nbsp;

The likes of resort-inspired pools, sun lounges, gyms and even teppanyaki grills are becoming standard, as more developers look to elevate homebuyers lifestyles’.&nbsp;

At Mirvac’s Ashford Residences at Everton Park in Brisbane’s inner-north, more than $2.5 million has been invested in the Ashford Club, offering a suite of residential facilities overlooking a one-hectare eco area to the Kedron Brook parkland.

Featuring a pool with a splash area for children, lounge chairs, a teppanyaki grill, fire pit, barbecue facilities, a turfed area for entertaining and a gym, the club is appealing to purchasers across the board, from first home buyers, to professionals, families and downsizers.

The ASX-listed group have notched up more than $80 million in sales since launching the Ashford Residences, with the final four homesites now officially launched to the market. &nbsp;

Mirvac General Manager Residential Queensland, Warwick Bible, said buyers were embracing the Ashford Club, designed to raise the bar for luxury living in Brisbane’s inner-north.

“We’ve seen lifestyle becoming an increasing emphasis for homebuyers for some time, and this has been accelerated even further post Covid-19,” he said.

“People are looking for a home that delivers more. Many are moving from apartments where they have had access to resort amenities, and they want the same level of lifestyle in a new community.

“These facilities also create a space for residents to form a real sense of community and connection, to host family and friends and enjoy facilities like the pool, gym and teppanyaki bar without owning and maintaining them – all factors that add to their appeal.”

Registered and ready to build on, the final lots range from 405 sqm and are priced from $730,000, offering a rare opportunity to build new, just seven kilometres from the Brisbane CBD.

Jaime Andueza, who purchased a 420 sqm lot at Ashford Residences, said the extensive residents’ facilities were a significant point of difference and key factor in his decision to move to the inner-north, after living southside for two decades.

The Chief Digital Officer and his partner, Aaron, are putting the finishing touches on their new five-bedroom, three living and five-bathroom home, which they anticipate moving into by Christmas.

“The Ashford Club has an elegant design, which is a differentiator from any other development we viewed,” said Andueza.

“There’s an incredibly beautiful view to the Kedron Brook, so you can go to the pool area and absorb the nature around you. It is luxurious and privileged, considering it is so close to the city.”

Andueza said his first impression of Ashford Residences was ‘sensational’.

“I had been looking at what was available in the market and had always wanted to build. When I saw the location of the blocks of land at Ashford Residences, I immediately realised it was a great opportunity,” he said.

“Having compared it to existing homes elsewhere, I felt the value and lifestyle offered was 
significantly greater. We’re looking forward to the neighbourly atmosphere and being part of the Ashford community.”

Ashford Residences have been a hit among buyers, with the most recent terrace home release selling-out to a waiting list prior to its official launch.&nbsp;

“We held the final four lots for release when they were ready to build on and buyers could see how the community had taken shape, and anticipate they will be in high demand,” Bible said.

“The opportunity to build new in this area is extremely rare and the location alongside Kedron Brook only adds to the desirability, as does the exclusive residents’ facilities in the Ashford Club.

“The proximity to Brisbane CBD and the village charm of Everton Park, home to an expanding mix of restaurants, cafes, bars and shops, is also seeing buyers zero in on the area.”

Ashford Residences will comprise a total of 124 residences upon completion in late 2023, with 80 terrace homes and 43 freestanding homes.&nbsp;

The final property, a heritage Queenslander known as Murphy’s Dairy Residence, is anticipated to launch to market early next year. Refurbishment works are underway on the historic home, which is situated on a rare 900 sqm lot that has been meticulously landscaped.
