A local Australian has spent a Lower North Shore record $15.1 million at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/elevate-hume-place-crows-nest-25-hume-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Elevate Hume Place</a>, the new TOD above the recently opened Crows Nest Metro Station.

The buyer amalgamated a penthouse and sub-penthouse to create the triplex apartment that will have five bedrooms, five bathrooms, a private rooftop pool, expansive terrace, and panoramic views of Sydney Harbour and skyline. The building is being created by burgeoning developer Third.i, alongside joint venture partner Phoenix Property Investors.

The buyer was drawn to Elevate’s unrivalled connectivity, situated directly above the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/crows-nest-nsw-2065">Crows Nest</a> Metro Station, and the vibrant lifestyle precinct that surrounds it. The Metro connects to the CBD in just seven minutes, and Chatswood in four.

Designed by internationally acclaimed architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a>, Elevate draws inspiration from the ancient blue gum forests native to the area. The building is a Net Zero development, created in consultation with Indigenous communities and exceeding sustainability benchmarks. Interiors feature chevron-engineered timber flooring, natural stone benchtops, and premium Sub-Zero Wolf appliances, delivering timeless elegance and next-level comfort.

The exchange of the $15.1 million apartment, follows a recent $5 million sale, and over $30 million currently in expressions of interests. Interest in Elevate’s penthouse stock has surged, reflecting a strong appetite for ultra-luxury residences that combine design excellence with unmatched connectivity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142550 project_image_fid=309369]

“We’re seeing a significant uptick in interest from local and international buyers who are prioritising connectivity, sustainability, and lifestyle,” said Callum Billinghurst, Head of Sales at Third.i Group.&nbsp;

“These recent sales are a testament to the vision behind Elevate. It’s not just about luxury finishes or panoramic views, it’s about creating homes that are deeply connected to the city and the community. Buyers are responding to that. They want to live somewhere that offers more than just a postcode, they want culture, convenience, and long-term value. Elevate delivers all of that, and more.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142550 project_image_fid=297878]

As part of the Hume Place precinct, Elevate is transforming Crows Nest into Sydney’s most dynamic urban village. Elevate’s unique position directly above the metro, combined with its curated amenity offering, has made it a magnet for buyers seeking a future-proof investment and a vibrant urban lifestyle.

The next release at Elevate is expected later this year.

Sydney developer Deicorp is set to officially open its <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/hills-showground-village-castle-hill-2-mandala-parade-castle-hill-nsw-2154">Showground Village</a> precinct in Castle Hill.

NSW Premier Chris Minns will attend the opening on Sunday August 31, alongside&nbsp;Minister for Planning and Public Spaces Paul Scully, The Hills Shire Council Mayor Dr Michelle Byrne, Landcom CEO Alex Wendler, and Deicorp Founder Fouad Deiri.

Located just moments from Hills Showground Metro Station, the centre spans 9,500 sqm across four levels and features 26 specialty retailers as well as a 1,400 sqm public plaza, creating a new community meeting point for shopping, dining, fitness, and everyday convenience.&nbsp;

Showground Village forms part of the Hills Showground Station Precinct, an urban renewal initiative led by Landcom and Sydney Metro that will provide for around 2,300 new jobs over the next 20 years and around 9,000 new homes.&nbsp;

Deicorp was recently approved for another new development next door to Showground Village.

The new five residential buildings in the East Showgrounds Precinct, will see another 873 dwellings delivered, as well as&nbsp;3,500 sqm of open public space in the form of landscaped courtyards, a public park and communal outdoor recreational space including a playground, barbeque area, and outdoor seating.

“This approval will allow us to start construction on a range of beautifully designed, conveniently located apartments and create another vibrant, walkable and well-connected community,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp" target="">Deicorp</a>&nbsp;Founder Fouad Deiri.

“These new homes will provide their residents with a seamless connection to jobs and services along Metro North West, and the new&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/hills-showground-village-castle-hill-2-mandala-parade-castle-hill" target="">Hills Showground Village</a>&nbsp;retail precinct currently under construction."

Deicorp has several thousand apartments in planning and under construction across Sydney, from Zetland and Five Dock to Crows Nest and Macquarie Park.

ASX-listed developer Cedar Woods is progressing its plans for its Southbank arts precinct site.&nbsp;

The developer has filed plans, which are now with the&nbsp;Department of Transport and Planning, for a new 20-level tower at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/141-151-sturt-street-southbank-vic-3006">141–151 Sturt Street</a>, a 2,718 sqm block opposite the Habitat Filter sculpture.

The proposal seeks to demolish the two-level&nbsp;commercial building, including a small supermarket and medical tenancies, and create a new building with 180 apartments and a focus on an&nbsp;active public realm and arts integration.

&nbsp;

<img alt="Southbank site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="76a72db6-91ef-43ae-827d-a9cfa72893d2" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Site.png?VersionId=DZgtB4K6BswVh0QtCs3iLjXaLp0CbcEb" />

&nbsp;

There will be a full mix of apartment configurations, including 28 studio apartments, 16 one-bedroom, 104 two-bedroom, and 32 three-bedroom units.

Retail, creative arts, and residential amenity functions are integrated across the lower levels. A food and drink tenancy is planned to front Dodds Street, while a retail tenancy fronting Sturt Street will be accessed via an elevated walkway. The first floor includes a substantial 734 sqm creative arts space, envisioned to support Melbourne’s growing cultural and digital industries.

Architecture firm <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> has put together the plans. In their&nbsp;Urban Design Report they highlighted the project’s ambition to embed itself within Southbank’s evolving cultural fabric.

A central feature of the design is a through-block link connecting Sturt and Dodds Streets, landscaped with native plantings and embedded with universal access ramps.

“The ramp has been thoughtfully integrated as the primary access point, ensuring universal accessibility for all users,” the report noted, with the link offering “a direct response to the urban planning scheme of creating more green spaces within our communities”.

<img alt="Southbank podium" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="4d24b1b2-d69c-4a11-a11d-ec6df432221c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/podium.png?VersionId=geWoJyZDmPSLODZ_.PNJ0LvpOmyyCdpo" />

The building’s podium form responds to the mandatory height limits along Dodds Street and maintains a fine-grain interface to adjoining developments. Above the podium, the tower is articulated with recessed balconies and a focus on views toward the CBD and surrounding arts institutions. A communal rooftop recreation deck and indoor lounge are positioned on level four, adjoining seven apartments and providing over 900 sqm of resident amenity space.

Vehicle access and loading will be provided via Dodds Street, with 155 resident car spaces located across two basement levels and the first three above-ground floors. Bicycle storage is more generous, with 226 spaces distributed across resident, staff and visitor needs.

Rothelowman describes the architecture as “humanist,” with ground-level interfaces designed to encourage social interaction and provide a dignified entry for both residents and passers-by. “All street interfaces are crafted to invite and nurture human connections,” the design report states. “The façade transitions to a human scale, providing an approachable and engaging streetscape”.

Cedar Woods, while well-known for its large communities it develops outside of Australia's capital cities, they have recently developed in Melbourne's inner-ring before. They are approaching completion at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/88-leveson-north-melbourne-88-leveson-street-north-melbourne-vic-3051">88 Leveson</a>, just 15 townhouses in the heart of North Melbourne.

Cedar Woods progresses with new apartment plans in Southbank arts precinct

Brisbane developers Core Property Partners and Vector Property Australia has teamed up for Brisbane's newest apartment development.

The duo identified <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/east-brisbane-qld-4169">East Brisbane</a> as their preferred suburb, on the fringe of the Gabba Precinct, where they've just revealed BANKSII, 72 apartments opposite Raymond Park.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136432 project_image_fid=5481]

The one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments will sit in a glass-wrapped building that will also feature a rooftop with an&nbsp;infinity-edge pool, a BBQ area and alfresco dining spaces, sun lounges, and a sauna, as well as a resident-only gym and a ground-floor cafe.

Rhett Williams, Director of Vector Property Australia, said the project will lift the quality of the East Brisbane community and set a new benchmark.

"In Brisbane’s current property landscape, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/banksii-east-brisbane-169-wellington-road-east-brisbane-qld-4169">BANKSII</a> stands out through its emphasis on lifestyle-oriented living, connectivity and sophisticated design," Williams says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136432 project_image_fid=5479]

The 10-level building has been designed by MAS Architecture. Their designs were inspired by the native Banksia flower, with the architecture and interiors reflecting the organic symmetry of its namesake flora. MAS has interpreted this throughout the building’s curved form, façade detailing and interior palette.&nbsp;

The building’s flowing geometry and natural tones are complemented by large balconies and floor-to-ceiling glazing, maximising cross-breezes, daylight and views over the city, parklands and river.

“Having a strong narrative for a building helps us architecturally,” MAS noted. "We can choose colours that come off that species of flowers. The trunk and the trees and the flower elements all are now visible in our joinery on the inside and in our architectural finishes on the outside."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136432 project_image_fid=5485]

Apartments will feature timber floors, soft porcelain tiles, brushed bronze fittings, and stone benchtops with warm veining.&nbsp;

Kitchens feature premium SMEG appliances and generous storage, while bathrooms have been designed as calming retreats with curved cabinetry and twin sinks in the master ensuites.

The building will feature a suite of rooftop and wellness amenities. Residents will have access to an infinity-edge pool, BBQ and alfresco dining areas, sun lounges and a rooftop sauna.&nbsp;

A residents-only gym will be located on the podium level, while a ground-floor café and landscaped laneway will further activate the site and improve neighbourhood connectivity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136432 project_image_fid=5488]

BANKSII will rise from a prime Wellington Road site, with the building oriented to overlook the adjacent Raymond Park and take in extensive city views. It is also on the doorstep of key&nbsp;lifestyle infrastructure, including the future Kangaroo Point Green Bridge, The Gabba stadium, and the planned Brisbane Live arena.&nbsp;

Public transport options, including ferry, bus and rail - including the future Cross River Rail Woolloongabba station - are all nearby, supporting a car-optional lifestyle just minutes from the CBD.

Williams said the team spent over a year searching for the ideal site before securing this location.

"We were attracted to <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/east-brisbane-qld-4169">East Brisbane</a> as it is a vibrant and growing community that offers a perfect balance of urban convenience and natural beauty with the parklands and river on our doorstep.”

The project is part of the broader Woolloongabba Games precinct, which is undergoing significant investment in the lead-up to the 2032 Brisbane Olympics. This urban renewal, coupled with infrastructure upgrades, is expected to enhance long-term liveability and capital growth in the area.

Given the wide max of configurations, BANKSII is expected to suit everyone from first home buyers and investors to families and downsizers.

BANKSII sales launch in booming East Brisbane apartment market

The Minns Labor Government will deliver Sydney’s first new heavy rail station in more than a decade – enabling up to 10,000 new homes by rezoning land around Woollahra and Edgecliff stations, right next to the CBD, to tackle the housing crisis and rebalance growth across the city.

Recent reports by the NSW Productivity Commission have warned that Sydney is losing twice as many young people as it is gaining, while also finding that Woollahra is the most feasible Local Government Area (LGA) in New South Wales to build new housing.

Despite this, housing approvals in Woollahra consistently lag well behind other LGAs, and the population has declined by 11 per cent over the past 50 years while Greater Sydney as a whole has grown by 74 per cent.

The new station that will be an eight-minute trip from Sydney CBD, will be located on the Eastern Suburbs train line in Woollahra, where a station build was started in the 1970s but never completed.

To enable the delivery of new homes the NSW Government will lead a rezoning of Woollahra and Edgecliff stations similar to other state led rezonings to allow additional homes to be built around the stations.

Affordable housing will also make up a proportion of development on the site with the final amount of affordable housing required, to be determined as part of the rezoning process.

The area surrounding the new station is within walking distance of major green and recreational space including Cooper, Trumper, Rushcutters Bay and Centennial Parks.

The Eastern Suburbs train line between Bondi Junction and Sydney CBD also has the lowest passenger usage rates during the AM peak of any line on the Sydney network, with only 43 per cent of operating capacity during the AM peak currently being utilised by passengers.

Sydney Water and Infrastructure NSW have confirmed there is capacity in the water and wastewater systems to accommodate the proposed 10,000 dwellings without major upgrades.

The rezoning is expected to take around two years and will further support the Government’s housing targets that rebalance the delivery of new homes around existing infrastructure.

Pikos Property Group

&nbsp;

Luxury buyers in Pikos Property Group&#39;s&nbsp;Kangaroo Point apartment development, Skye by Pikos, are doubling up their purchases, amalgamating two adjoining apartments to create super apartments.

Pikos&#39;&nbsp;$200 million Skye apartments has fielded interest from three separate parties to purchase two adjacent, already sizeable, 230 sqm&nbsp;apartments in the luxury development and amalgamate them under one expansive, opulent sky home of almost 450 sqm.

Director of Gap Development Sales, Grant Plummer said it was something they had never anticipated but realised the unique opportunity they had to create something special for buyers.

&ldquo;A common theme for each buyer was that they want the amazing position and view that Skye offers but they don&rsquo;t want to compromise space when moving from the family home.&quot;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=90059 project_image_fid=188830]

&ldquo;Essentially buyers are looking for a way to downsize upkeep without downsizing their lifestyle, and that&rsquo;s where we&rsquo;re seeing this demand for these mega-apartments,&rdquo; he said.

Each of the amalgamated Skye Residences will span&nbsp;372 sqm&nbsp;of internal living area, a further 32 sqm&nbsp;of balconies, and 23 sqm&nbsp;of Skye gardens.

The reconfiguration of the two adjoining apartments allows for larger bedrooms, all with ensuites, a master bedroom that is larger than some two-bedroom apartments, multiple living zones, and the provision of four car spaces designed to accommodate families with adult children.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=90059 project_image_fid=188833]

The mega-apartments sold for $6.5 million each, with the Skye penthouse priced at $10.5 million&nbsp;and the sub penthouse at&nbsp;$8.5 million.

&ldquo;While these are substantial figures, it is still incredible value when compared to the likes of Sydney and Melbourne,&rdquo; Plummer added.

&ldquo;The interstate buyers just can&rsquo;t believe how cheap we are at $13,000 per sqm&nbsp;compared to projects that are launching in Sydney at $45,000 a sqm.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=90059 project_image_fid=188830]

Data from Urbis released earlier this year revealed a price disparity of up to 35 per cent between premium projects in Brisbane and Melbourne and a staggering 258 per cent differential compared to Sydney.

Within days of its first limited pre-release of residences in the first stage of the development it had received more than 600 registrations of interest, prompting the first 23 luxury residences on offer to be snapped up in a $80 million buyer rush.

Set atop the cliffs of Kangaroo Point and taking in unobstructed views across the Brisbane River and skyline, Skye by Pikos brings to life 68 luxury apartments over three towers.

Buyers amalgamating apartments in Pikos Group's Kangaroo Point apartment development, Skye by Pikos

The Brisbane-based Pikos Group are set to launch its next apartment project, a striking collection of three towers in the affluent suburb of Kangaroo Point.

The first release of Lambert Street Apartments, to be developed on one of the last remaining vacant sites overlooking the Brisbane River, will see 75 apartments up for grabs, with strong enquiry already fielded by the Pedro Pikos-led developer.

There will be three towers as part of the Lambert Street Apartments, designed by Conrad Gargett Architect and oriented to look across the river to New Farm.

<a href="/new-apartments/gaia-kangaroo-point-108-lambert-street-kangaroo-point">To keep up to date with the development and its launch, enquire here</a>

&ldquo;Lambert Street represents the final chance for a new generation of luxury to rise in Kangaroo Point &ndash; there are no other developable sites left in the area,&rdquo; Pikos said.

<img alt="" height="856" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/stage_1_pikos_lambert_st.jpg" width="604" /> 
The first of the three towers

&ldquo;Interstate developers have been desperately trying to get their hands on developable land in Kangaroo Point, but they&rsquo;re a little too late to the party.

&ldquo;We have always had a huge affinity for Kangaroo Point and this project will present a vanishingly rare opportunity to secure a riverfront residence drenched in the trademark Pikos luxury-touch.&rdquo;

The project is set to rise opposite the highly successful&nbsp;Argyle New Farm, which has underpinned the strength of the central Brisbane market, securing 90 per cent&nbsp;of its sales for $7.75 million, and a penthouse sale at $15.4 million.

<img alt="" height="1672" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/stage_2_pikos_lambert_st.jpg" width="1200" /> 
One of the later release towers

&ldquo;Our appartments will enter the market at a tenth of the price of the Argyle, without compromising on quality or vistas, which is remarkable value for buyers seeking a more affordable entry to riverside living,&rdquo; Pikos added.

Kangaroo Point is one of Brisbane&#39;s most sought-after and tightly held markets for houses and apartments, with little high-rise stock in the pipeline or recently completed.

<a href="/new-apartments/gaia-kangaroo-point-108-lambert-street-kangaroo-point">To keep up to date with the development and its launch, enquire here</a>

Gap Development Sales Director Grant Plummer, who is handling the marketing, said there&#39;s been incredible levels of demand already.

Another render of one of the future releases

&ldquo;Kangaroo Point is the location with it all &ndash; it&rsquo;s got proximity, panoramas, and a captivating charm which has cemented it as the pinnacle of city living for the luxury owner occupier market,&rdquo;&nbsp;Plummer said.

&ldquo;The diminishing opportunity for new product in such a coveted location has resulted in an incredible level of demand which we are excited to satiate with our spectacular Lambert Street collection.&rdquo;

Lambert Street is being modelled with the same finishes as Pikos&#39;s&nbsp;Skye apartments, located on just across the bend.

Pikos Group set to launch La Storia, first stage of Lambert Street Apartments in Kangaroo Point

The Brisbane developer Pikos Group have secured approval for three residential towers in Kangaroo Point.

Pikos had to get sign off from the&nbsp;Land and Environment Court for the ambitious Lambert Street development after a number of complaints from local residents.

The team at Pikos engaged with council and addressed the issues raised within the community for a successful outcome.

&ldquo;We are delighted council has recognised the overall merits of our development and we can now move forward with a benchmark project that will enhance the inherent charm of Kangaroo Point and its future growth,&rdquo; said Pikos Property Group head Pedro Pikos.

&ldquo;The Pikos team is now gearing up to deliver the project and we expect work to commence as early as next month&rdquo; he said.

The project at 108 Lambert Street will see three towers built on the 5285 sqm site.

Kris Kowalski Architects, who designed 300 apartments in the Fortitude Valley&nbsp;tower 289 Wickham Street, submitted amended plans late last year for the Kangaroo Point towers, with the number of apartments scaled back from 300 to 273.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve gone back to the drawing board to ensure we continue to deliver a new standard of luxury residential tower development to the area in a well-designed integrated project that blends with and is sensitive to its surrounds.&rdquo;

&ldquo;We&rsquo;re aware of the views raised by some local residents and we want to reassure the community that we&rsquo;ve listened, and we&rsquo;re invested in the future of Kangaroo Point,&rdquo; Pikos said.

&ldquo;Now we are out of the appeal process, we continue to take on board community feedback and are exploring further options to substantially reduce apartment density and traffic volumes&rdquo; he continued.

&ldquo;This project will be the new benchmark for apartment living in terms of spaciousness and amenity on the Kangaroo Point peninsula, where our density is far less than in many existing residential towers in the area,&rdquo; Pikos said.

Pikos Group win approval for $350 million Kangaroo Point development

Brisbane-based developer Pikos Group has secured approval for Skye Apartments, its $200 million luxury apartment project at Kangaroo Point.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=90059]

Skye Apartments have been designed by the local architecture firm Arkhefield who drew inspiration from the iconic Marina Bay Sands hotel in Singapore, having its own 1,000 sqm Sky Deck featuring a residents&#39; pool deck,&nbsp;a rooftop bar and a restaurant.

There will be just 68 apartments across three towers of up to&nbsp;13 levels on the corner of River Terrace and Main Street. Each building will have just two apartments per floor, with balconies along the River Terrace frontage offering city views.

There will be six penthouses, each with their own private roof terrace. On the ground level of the development there will be a gym, a sub-tropical garden and a separate cafe for the public.

<img alt="" height="672" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/pikos_8_river_terrace_2.jpg" width="1200" />

Brisbane developer Pedro Pikos says the project is aimed at the booming owner-occupier market seeking inner-city living by offering spacious apartments with luxurious interiors and superior finishes.

&ldquo;We have delivered refinements that we believe creates a unique residential offering for the city by combining boutique premium apartment lifestyle with world-class amenities that you&rsquo;d expect in a five-star resort.

&ldquo;The Sky Lounge is the jewel in the crown of this design that will set this development apart for residents and as a Brisbane destination in its own right.&nbsp;

&ldquo;Everything is at your fingertips if you choose, or you can remain at home to enjoy the benefits of supreme privacy, a beautiful outlook and unparalleled amenities.&rdquo;

Access to the city and all it has to offer will be enhanced by a new pedestrian bridge proposed to link Kangaroo Point and the Botanic Gardens.

The 2,330&nbsp;sqm site was set to become a Banyan Tree residential community before Pikos Group bought it from the international hotels group.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6257]

The Pikos development will provide four levels of basement car parking, as well as&nbsp;a port-cochere drop-off point for the public and residents to use.

Pikos has a workbook in Southeast Queensland of $1.3 billion, with a large portfolio in Kangaroo Point which is it believes is shaping up as Brisbane&rsquo;s hotspot.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

There will be just 68 apartments across three towers of up to 13 levels on the corner of River Terrace and Main Street.


Pikos Group secure approval for $200 million Kangaroo Point project Skye Apartments

<html><body>
<a href="/developers/pikos-group">Pikos Property Group</a> have lodged a minor change DA at Banyan Tree Residences - 8 River Terrace, Kangaroo Point.

The change includes a slight height increase from the previous approval, and 63 x 3 bed apartments across three buildings, rather than two. The new DA, designed by <a href="/architects/arkhefield" target="_blank">Arkhefield</a> also includes a rooftop bar and restaurant, with a glass lift providing views on the way up top. Situated on top of the <a href="/developments/kangaroo-point-qld-4169">Kangaroo Point</a> cliffs, the western-facing apartments and rooftop would certainly offer excellent views of the river and CBD.

The development would also be widely seen due to its highly eminent location, and the new <a href="/architects/arkhefield">Arkhefield</a> design undoubtedly meets the high standard in which the prominent site demands.
