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.

&nbsp;

"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.

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.

Lowe Living continues Bayside legacy as Marella rises in Hampton

A Moroccan-bathhouse residential tower has been unveiled for Budds Beach, with Australian developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/homecorp">Homecorp</a> announcing plans for a $260 million resort-style project in one of the Gold Coast’s most tightly held waterfront precincts.

A development application has been submitted to the Gold Coast City Council for a 27-storey tower at 8-10 Acacia Avenue and 25-27 Oak Avenue, Surfers Paradise, marking one of the few new large-scale residential projects proposed for the precinct in more than a decade.

The project will comprise 156 two- and three-bedroom residences, anchored by a residents-only Moroccan spa-inspired wellness sanctuary featuring private treatment rooms, a traditional Nordic sauna and steam room, hot and cold plunge pools and a curated juice bar. There will also be a resort-style rooftop precinct, complete with a heated infinity pool and spa, a residents’ lounge with a private kitchen and bar, a contemporary fitness centre with a yoga and Pilates studio, and outdoor BBQ areas with entertaining lounges.

<img alt="8-10 Acacia Avenue and 25-27 Oak Avenue, Surfers Paradise" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="997f8dbb-4ed1-47e4-8780-d12a3d5cd0e9" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Article%20Feature%20Image%20%28Grid%29_3.png?VersionId=IsDJXxE8.HG92i4dnbmmPQi.fVXjME7I" />

"At Homecorp, we are driven by the pursuit of better - challenging expectations, thinking bigger and shaping communities that leave a lasting legacy," said Ron Bakir, CEO and Founder of Homecorp.

"This project draws on our experience and expertise to take what the market has been craving to the next level - a home that nurtures wellness, calms the mind and lifts the everyday stresses away. A home is more than a place you live, it’s where you rest, reset and find balance."

&nbsp;

Bakir says what sets the location&nbsp;apart is its rare, tightly held nature within one of the Gold Coast’s most vibrant lifestyle and entertainment precincts, yet quietly tucked away in a peaceful, beachside enclave.

"Budds Beach has remained exceptionally limited in supply over the past decade and this site presented an unmatched opportunity to deliver something truly special to both Surfers Paradise and the Gold Coast.”

Conveniently connected to major roads and the G:link, residents will enjoy easy access to Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach and Burleigh Heads, while still being just minutes from the city’s most iconic beaches and the Broadwater’s ‘golden mile’.

The 2130 sqm site acquisition adds to Homecorp’s growing Gold Coast multi-storey portfolio on the Gold Coast, following the success of Eve Residences in Labrador upon its completion in November 2024. In 2025, Eve earned multiple national accolades and went on to win ‘Best Oceanview Condo Development’ in the Asia Pacific region at the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards Grand Final, outperforming entries from more than 13 prestigious international markets.

The company also commenced construction last year on the highly anticipated $250 million second stage of Cienna Varsity Ridge, set to deliver 289 residences by 2027 in the heart of Varsity Lakes, and launched the $210 million Florence Residences along Surfers Paradise’s Monte Carlo Avenue to the market, with construction kicking off last month.

"The property market is constantly evolving, particularly here on the Gold Coast, which continues to outperform national trends thanks to its unmatched lifestyle, natural beauty and growing infrastructure, especially ahead of the Brisbane 2032 Olympics. We are proud to be adding more homes to the skyline, creating spaces that are not only designed for liveability but also nurture wellness within. They are homes that are built to last a lifetime and beyond," concluded Mr Bakir.

The project is set to launch to the market later this year.

The Pearl: A new era in luxury living

The affluent suburb of Nedlands,&nbsp;which stretches from the banks of the Swan River to the edge of the Indian Ocean, is gearing up to welcome it's newest residential development.&nbsp;

Set across six levels, Jardin has been designed by Hassell and will offer spacious one, two and three-bedroom apartments, donned with a mix of materials, coupled with abundant greenery and residential amenity.&nbsp;

The architects at Hassell say Jardin captures the essence of its enviable Nedlands location.

The project also features full-height energy-efficient glazing to maximise natural light, promote thermal comfort, while also utilising laminated glass to mitigate external noise.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110130 project_image_fid=185790]

One of Perth’s biggest shopping centres has been given the green light for expansion in Booragoon.&nbsp;

The major milestone development is located adjacent to Iris Residential’s apartment project, Amara City Gardens, putting residents in prime position of the $792 million expansion of Westfield Booragoon.

Planning Minister Rita Saffioti said the expansion of the popular and iconic Westfield Booragoon Shopping Centre will not only create new retail opportunities, but it will also improve amenity for the local community, with the redevelopment’s new leisure, hospitality and entertainment precinct.&nbsp;

Tennis, bowling, golf and sailing clubs are also all close by, and the South Perth foreshore is a great spot for a sunset picnic as the lights of the city beckon across the river.

Kings Park – the green heart and lungs of the city – will connect residents back to nature. Two thirds of the expansive 4,000,000 sqm inner-city park is protected as bushland, providing a haven for a number of native animals, with the open green space also home to the Western Australian Botanic Garden, which has over 3,000 species of the State's flora.

For a trip beyond The Pearl, residents can take the ferry to Elizabeth Quay and savour all the delights of Perth’s newest dining and entertainment options. The waterfront precinct on the banks of the Swan River features the island playground, the BHP Billiton Water Park, along with public artwork, promenades, open spaces and a range of bars and restaurants. &nbsp;

A range of scenic river cruises sail across from Barrack Street Jetty to the Swan Valley, Fremantle and Rottnest Island, while visitors can also enjoy some time on a segway, a gondola ride on the Swan or just take a leisurely stroll alongside the river and across the bridge. There’s also 24 short term public boat moorings available.

A number of one, two, three and four-bedroom residences can still be purchased in The Pearl, which is slated for completion by mid 2025.&nbsp;

How The Pearl takes advantage of its coveted South Perth location

Boutique property developers, Megara has been given the green-light on their $73 million Sorrento Plaza development by the state's planning commission.&nbsp;

The eight-storey residential building, Ora Sorrento will deliver a collection of luxury beachfront apartments, designed by the award-winning MJA Studio, in what is pitched to reshape and reform the 5,777 sqm site at 128-134 West Coast Drive.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=137533 project_image_fid=209055]

The Western Australia Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage consulted with the City of Joondalup to streamline the process, which will deliver 75 apartments across eight-storeys.&nbsp;&nbsp;

According to a statement from Megara, the existing planning framework was reviewed with the local community, which highlighted the need for it to be updated to better reflect local aspirations for the landmark site.

For those who treasure the coastal life, Ora is home, say Megara, with the project set to deliver a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments, along with exclusive four-bedroom penthouses.

Luxurious Swiss V-Zug appliances will be fitted out into each of the homes, as well as a number of sustainable initiatives, while the highly-sought after location will also bring along with it uninterrupted ocean views, which residents can enjoy from their balcony.&nbsp;&nbsp;

“Ora represents a rare opportunity to enjoy an enviable coastal lifestyle so many aspire to,” Megara say.

The plans also propose two food and beverage tenancies, a public plaza, a bottleshop, 80 public car parking spaces and four motorbike spaces on the ground floor, along with the lobby for the residential apartments.

Amara City Gardens completes construction

Boutique developers Norup + Wilson have been making a name for themselves across Perth for a number of years, having now amassed a portfolio that spans far and wide, with over half a billion dollars on the books.&nbsp;

Headed by Director’s John Norup and Dave Wilson, the group focuses on the owner-occupier, &nbsp;paying particular attention to the standard and range of first-class amenities on offer within their multi-level communities.&nbsp;

It’s been no different for the group’s imposing 21-storey community on the high-point of the coveted Mount Pleasant and Applecross peninsula - having attracted the interest of buyers not only for its enviable location.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8514 project_image_fid=203919]

“In order for a community to function efficiently and happily, an enormous amount of careful thought and effort needs to be invested in the planning, design and built-form solutions to which they lead,” said Wilson.&nbsp;

“From the outset of this ambitiously innovative residential development, my focus has been on ensuring that all the community facilities integrate seamlessly with the private living areas. In this way, resident privacy and security are maximised as elegantly as are the shared benefits of the resort-quality these facilities provide.”

“Our goal is to set an unrivalled benchmark in apartment living.”

The action begins across the ground floor, transitioning into a destination entertainment piazza featuring an eclectic assortment of cuisines and experiences, with a number of restaurants already operating on the doorstep of The Precinct, and a handful still to come.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8514 project_image_fid=203923]

More often than not, developments focus their private amenity offering around the pool. The Precinct has instead incorporated the facilities into distinct zones throughout, allowing residents to fully enjoy each space.&nbsp;

Reminiscent of the finest resorts across the world, The Precinct is home to an indoor and outdoor gym, a running track, a swimming pool, Bocci pit, cabana daybeds, Teppanyaki barbecues, a residents lounge and library, a wine room and a kid’s play room.&nbsp;

For the exclusive use of Sky Residents from levels 17 to 21, a Sky Lounge is also part of The Precinct, encompassing some of the best views on the west coast.&nbsp;

“The only difference between this peaceful escape from the everyday and the kind of relaxing, five-star resort you’d find in some distant tropical paradise, is that this one is yours. Your own piece of paradise,” Wilson said.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8514 project_image_fid=203920]

The Precinct stands as the most prominent landmark in the Canning Bridge Precinct, commanding views of every facet of the city, from Kings Park and the CBD, to the converging Swan and Canning Rivers and the distant escarpment to the east.&nbsp;

Norup + Wilson chose the landmark site to maximise the Melville Council’s $235 million redevelopment vision for the precinct. Over the next ten years the Canning Bridge area is expected to be transformed with an expanded train station, river ferry and revitalised town centre on par with what was witnessed at Subiaco and East Perth.&nbsp;
