Abadeen has released the whole-floor penthouse crowning its recently completed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/park-residences-cremorne-2-sutherland-street-cremorne-nsw-2090">Park Residences</a> development in Cremorne, bringing the near-300 sqm residence to market for the first time.

Occupying the entire top floor of the boutique Lower North Shore development, the penthouse includes 221 sqm of internal living and a 74 sqm wraparound terrace, with a prized north-facing aspect taking in views across Middle Harbour.

The residence has been completed and fully furnished following a collaboration between Abadeen Executive Chairman Justin Brown and internationally recognised interior designer Jack Freeman, Founder and Managing Director of FREEMAN &amp; CO.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen">Abadeen</a> and Freeman approached the penthouse as a finished home, sourcing furniture, artwork, lighting and objects from Australia and overseas.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378718]

Pieces from Parisian design house Pierre Augustin Rose sit alongside contemporary artworks and bespoke lighting, with Freeman drawing on recent visits to PAD Paris and Salone del Mobile Milano for the final collection.

Brown said the aim was to create a penthouse that felt more like a large-scale private home than a traditional apartment.

"The experience begins the moment the lift doors open. You're welcomed into an elegant dining room before the home opens into an extraordinary living space framed by sun-drenched harbour views.

"Every time someone walks through the front door they pause. It's not just the view, it's the incredible sense of space, the warmth created by the northern sunlight that fills the interiors, and the way every room connects so effortlessly.

"It has all the proportions of a luxury home, while delivering the effortless lifestyle and personalised experience of living in a world-class six-star hotel, combined with the simplicity and convenience of apartment living."

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378713]

A secure lift provides exclusive access to the penthouse level, opening to a dedicated arrival foyer and dining area before the residence expands into its main living and entertaining spaces.

Floor-to-ceiling glazing runs across the northern side of the home, connecting the interiors with the terrace and Middle Harbour outlook.

The penthouse also features a fireplace and substantial chef's kitchen, while the wraparound terrace has been designed to accommodate both everyday outdoor living and larger-scale entertaining.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378720]

Freeman said the interiors had been deliberately kept restrained to complement the scale, natural light and outlook already established by the architecture.

"The penthouse is a serene study in quiet luxury," Freeman said.

"The interior pairs soft, sculptural forms with warm timber, pale stone and a restrained neutral palette. Curated artwork and metallic accents add depth, while abundant natural light creates a calm, effortlessly refined atmosphere. In my world, less is always more."

Freeman said the approach was centred around collecting individual pieces rather than simply decorating the apartment.

"Every material, every object and every piece of furniture has been curated with intention. I am a true believer in collecting versus decorating.

"The architecture already provided extraordinary natural light, remarkable volume and an uninterrupted connection to Middle Harbour. Our role was to complement those qualities with unique one-of-a-kind pieces of fine art and collectible design sourced from recent travels around the world."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378694]

Among the collection are solid bronze sculptures by Lorenzo Quinn, alongside a curated crystalware collection and pieces sourced from international design fairs.

Park Residences sits opposite Cammeray Golf Club, Cammeray Croquet Club and Grand Slam Tennis Cammeray, around 300 metres from Neutral Bay Village and its established collection of restaurants, cafés and retail.

Brown said the combination of a whole-floor floorplan, northern aspect and proximity to Neutral Bay was becoming increasingly difficult to find on the Lower North Shore.

"Completed whole-floor penthouses with a sun-drenched north-facing aspect and sweeping Middle Harbour views are exceptionally rare," Brown said.

"Add a quiet position opposite golf, croquet and tennis facilities, a level walk to Neutral Bay Village and only minutes to the CBD, and you have a lifestyle that's incredibly difficult to replicate.

"This is a home that offers the privacy and generosity of a luxury residence together with the convenience of one of Sydney's best-connected harbourside locations."

The penthouse will be exclusively marketed by SRM Residential.

Abadeen unveils signature penthouse at Park Residences in Cremorne

New Brisbane developer Dalcott has unveiled Marrone, the first of three residential projects it is planning in and around Browning Street in South Brisbane.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/marrone-south-brisbane-39-browning-street-south-brisbane-qld-4101">Marrone</a> will comprise 97 predominantly two- and three-bedroom apartments, with larger residences aimed squarely at the owner-occupier market.

The project will sit in a quiet pocket of South Brisbane between South Bank and West End, close to the restaurants, cultural attractions and riverfront amenity that have driven the suburb's continued transformation.

Dalcott is targeting buyers looking for more space and amenity than has traditionally been offered in the inner-city apartment market, particularly downsizers and professionals wanting to remain close to the city.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149951 project_image_fid=377072]

Resident facilities will be concentrated around an extensive rooftop amenity offering, including a swimming pool, spa, infrared sauna, warm and cold magnesium plunge pools, private lounge, dining room and outdoor entertaining areas.

Dalcott Managing Director Lachlan Cottee said South Brisbane's combination of lifestyle, connectivity and established character had been central to the approach to Marrone.

“South Brisbane offers a combination of lifestyle, connectivity and character that’s difficult to replicate elsewhere in Brisbane,” Cottee said.

“Our focus has been on creating homes that feel connected to that environment while providing the level of design, functionality and quality that today's owner-occupiers expect.”

The residences will feature an expressive material palette. Italian Calacatta Viola marble, known for its deep burgundy veining, will be paired with aged brass tapware, Chestnut engineered timber flooring and Tuscan Oak joinery.

<img alt="Marrone" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="b8d833da-3b30-496a-ae30-07bdff371b50" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%2010.52.35%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=P6DAgOfaQzIXljKKK5j3e5NhWtrHIu9G" />

Bathrooms will feature Nara Japanese ceramics and glass bricks, while clay, walnut and brass lighting will be used throughout the apartments.

Dalcott has appointed Realm Projects, led by Managing Director Shane Foley, to handle sales and marketing following previous sold-out collaborations between the groups.

Foley said the Brisbane apartment buyer had become increasingly focused on the quality of the home itself rather than simply securing an inner-city address.

“We expect to see strong demand from buyers who still want all the advantages of inner-city living but aren’t prepared to compromise on the quality of their home,” Foley said.

“Many will be downsizers looking to leave behind the maintenance of a traditional family home without giving up the space they enjoy, while others are likely to be professionals wanting a residence that reflects the way they live today.”

“Marrone responds directly to that demand, with generous floorplans, exceptional resident amenity and a location that places some of Brisbane’s best dining, entertainment and cultural attractions within walking distance.”

<img alt="Marrone" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="61f7b22f-899e-4c0f-940a-7d3ab1bfb93a" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%2010.52.44%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=PvN1JYxBgUpyCB7efKo52WGdSDs9nmim" />

Marrone will be the first project delivered as part of Dalcott's broader investment in the precinct.

It will be followed by La Terra, a boutique project comprising penthouse-style, single-level apartments on a northeast corner site with extensive resident amenity and city views.

Cottee said Marrone represented the first stage of the group's longer-term plans for the area.

Dalcott was established in 2025 by Lachlan Cottee and Ben Dalgliesh, combining development and construction capability under an integrated model and focusing on architecturally considered residential projects.

Marrone will initially be offered through a pre-release registration campaign ahead of its broader public launch.

Dalcott targets owner-occupiers with South Brisbane debut Marrone

Parnell Developments is the latest to seek significant uplift through the NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority on a Strathfield site previously approved for a much smaller apartment development.

Parnell has sought approval for a 32-storey mixed use tower across&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/7-lyons-street-strathfield-nsw-2135">3-7 Lyons Street and 18 Parnell Street</a>, a&nbsp;1,857 sqm site around 400 metres from Strathfield Station. The building would yield 160 apartments, 15 per cent of which will be dedicated affordable as per the government mandate for buildings seeking additional uplift.

Approved previously was a nine-storey building back in 2022 with just over 30 apartments. That approval came prior to the project being&nbsp;progressively reconsidered as planning policy shifted toward greater density around transport hubs.

<img alt="Strathfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c5af5281-a643-4eb2-b8c4-0081b59c04c7" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%209.16.48%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=37bd3mI7rHNpThOV_75VO8xsGFwWOi1u" />

Turner has designed the latest building that would replace&nbsp;existing detached homes across the four lots.

The apartment mix comprises 22 one-bedroom apartments, 107 two-bedroom and two-bedroom-plus configurations, and 31 apartments with three or more bedrooms. The scheme also includes 203 car spaces across six basement levels and 58 bicycle spaces.

The proposal has been designed around a three-storey podium addressing Lyons Street, with the tower rising above and stepping toward its upper levels.

Turner said the podium was deliberately scaled to respond to the existing street, while the taller element has been designed as part of the emerging skyline anticipated around Strathfield Town Centre and the wider Homebush transport-oriented development precinct.

The Lyons Street frontage would have a more active, pedestrian-focused character, incorporating the commercial tenancy, landscaping and a brick-framed podium with an awning.

<img alt="Strathfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="14b20874-b8c3-4ac7-bc03-92be9a69fb78" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%209.17.48%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=av.9TxtqIRTC6v3PkSuu1rL9rreWoe2h" />

Parnell Street, which faces the railway corridor, has been given a different architectural treatment, with double-height breeze blocks, landscaping and communal areas used to soften the interface with the rail infrastructure.

The tower itself uses curved and recessed facade elements, with wave-like indentations across the northern elevation breaking the building into three vertical forms.

A palette of grey concrete, brick and breeze blocks is complemented by clay and terracotta accents, while the upper tower adopts a lighter expression through articulated slab edges, vertical fins and recessed glazing.

Residents would have access to 467 sqm of communal open space spread across three levels. The ground floor would accommodate the more active resident areas, including barbecue and group gathering spaces and an internal communal room capable of being used for working from home.

A more passive viewing deck is proposed at level three, overlooking the ground-level landscaping and neighbouring tennis courts, while a rooftop "sunset deck" at level 30 would provide another social and relaxation space.

<img alt="Parnell" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c3dce401-a80f-4682-8471-4caa01180880" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%209.17.34%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=Xyo8JVqbOhSJXNy6Ih.1cHL.O6i0bGR." />

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Strathfield has been earmarked for substantial change through the Strathfield Town Centre planning work and the nearby Homebush TOD precinct.

Turner's report says the project has been designed to act as a transition between the existing low and mid-rise development surrounding the site and the taller built form expected to emerge across the town centre.

The proposal is being assessed as State Significant Development under the HDA pathway, alongside the concurrent request to amend the Burwood Local Environmental Plan.

First look: New apartment tower pitched for Strathfield Town Centre precinct

An $18 million penthouse has hit the market in Main Beach as construction tops out on La Mer, the $155 million apartment development rising just metres from the beach.

Spanning around 600 sqm across the top two levels of the 29-storey tower on Main Beach Parade, the four-bedroom penthouse is one of the latest eight-figure residences to test the upper end of the Gold Coast apartment market.

Its launch comes amid continued activity at the very top of the market, following the $30 million off-the-plan sale of a Burleigh Heads penthouse earlier this year, which surpassed the Gold Coast's previous $24 million apartment record set in 2023.

The <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/la-mer-main-beach-3580-main-beach-parade-main-beach-qld-4217">La Mer penthouse</a> has been designed as a private residence in the sky, with 360-degree views spanning the ocean, Broadwater, hinterland and Gold Coast skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378731]

All four bedrooms have ensuites, while the ocean-facing master retreat occupies around half of the upper level and includes its own lounge, private balcony, two walk-in wardrobes and an oversized ensuite with a freestanding stone bath positioned to take in the views.

The residence also features a kitchen designed to accommodate a private chef, a 3.6-metre island bench, expansive butler's pantry, wine cellar and integrated bar.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378732]

A rooftop pool and substantial outdoor entertaining area with its own kitchen sit above the residence, while a grand staircase connects the two internal levels. The penthouse also has its own express lift.

OTP Group Director James Elliott, who is marketing La Mer, said the penthouse was expected to appeal to high-net-worth buyers seeking either a permanent Main Beach residence or Gold Coast holiday home.

“The La Mer penthouse represents exceptional value, considering its quality design, size, privacy and location, not to mention the 360-degree views capturing the beach and Gold Coast Broadwater,” Elliott said.

“We’re anticipating interest from high-net-worth individuals and couples seeking a residence or holiday home in the sought-after village enclave of Main Beach, taking advantage of the unprecedented growth underway in the area and neighbouring The Spit.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378736]

La Mer is being developed by developer-builder ODUS and Nazero, in partnership with funder Metrics Credit Partners.

ODUS Director Byron Sakha said topping out the tower had provided the opportunity to release the project's most significant residence.

“We’ve worked with internationally-recognised studio Sici Design on the penthouse interiors, with a focus on ensuring it isn’t luxury for luxury’s sake. Every element has been thoughtfully designed to enhance quality of life for those who call it home,” Sakha said.

“The views are the hero of virtually every space, but we’ve given equal attention to the fittings and finishes, so every detail exudes elegance and refinement.”

Sici Design Founder and Director Maria Papadopoulos said the extensive views became an integral part of the interior design rather than simply something the residence was designed around.

“The views weren't something we designed around, they became part of the design itself, with the true luxury of La Mer in its feeling of peace, calm and wellbeing,” Papadopoulos said.

“Luxury isn't defined by how something looks, but how it makes you feel, and we believe a luxurious home should be beautiful to live in, not stressful to maintain.”

The interiors combine Austral Dream Dolomite natural stone and travertine with timber flooring and a restrained coastal palette.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378734]

Designed by Plus Studio, La Mer is one of the more boutique additions to the rapidly changing Main Beach apartment market.

The tower comprises just 24 full-floor, three-bedroom plus multipurpose room apartments below the two-level penthouse, giving the project a considerably lower density than many of the larger towers being developed across the Gold Coast.

Residents will have access to a pool and spa, gym, sauna, barbecue facilities, private sun lounges, yoga lawn and outdoor beach shower.

The penthouse has been released as part of the final collection of residences at La Mer, with remaining apartments priced from $4.3 million.

Construction is expected to complete later this year, with a fully furnished display apartment now open on level four.

ODUS releases $18 million penthouse crowning La Mer Main Beach

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/far-east-consortium">Far East Consortium</a> is preparing to commence construction on <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/640-bourke-street-melbourne-640-bourke-street-melbourne-vic-3000">640 Bourke Street</a> this October, marking the next milestone for the Melbourne CBD development and its higher-end Eliza Collection.

Spanning levels 44 to 68 of the 68-storey <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a>-designed tower, the Eliza Collection has been conceived as a lower-density offering within the broader development, with only five apartments on each floor, dedicated lift access and a collection of resident spaces reserved exclusively for Eliza Collection residents.

The Eliza Collection forms part of Far East Consortium's broader move toward larger-format residences at 640 Bourke Street, where the number of apartments was reduced from earlier plans as apartment sizes increased.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=365685]

"What it's meant for 640 Bourke is we've actually reduced the number of apartments. We've increased the overall size of the apartments. We don't have any studios in here, and what that does for a project is it elevates it," Far East Consortium Director of Sales and Marketing Lauren Sheldon said.

Rothelowman Associate Jun Chang said the design process provided an opportunity to create more generous floorplans.

"We were given the opportunity to be more generous. The apartments became bigger and squarer than any other apartments which had been designed in the CBD before that."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=368869]

That thinking carries through to the Eliza Collection, where the residences have been designed around the space and functionality associated with a larger home, but positioned high above the centre of Melbourne.

Kitchens are equipped with Gaggenau appliances, a butler's pantry, temperature-controlled wine cabinet and sculptural pendant lighting, while engineered timber flooring, stone and porcelain finishes and custom cabinetry feature throughout the broader interiors.

Privacy and security are another point of distinction. Eliza Collection residents have dedicated lift access, while 640 Bourke Street will provide concierge services and secure resident parking. Short-stay accommodation, including Airbnb, will not be permitted within the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=365689]

Eliza Collection residents will also have exclusive access to selected amenity spaces across levels one and three of the restored Eliza Tinsley building. These include the Salon with grand piano, an art therapy room, private dining rooms and treatment rooms.

They sit within more than 3,000 sqm of amenity planned across 640 Bourke Street, alongside facilities including a pool, gym, whisky lounge and further social and wellness spaces.

The Eliza Tinsley building itself is central to the wider project's identity. Rather than treating the existing Eliza Tinsley façade as a separate element, Rothelowman used it as a starting point for the architecture of the new tower, with the historic building to accommodate the project's gallery and lobby.

"It's a significant asset and wants to be celebrated and experienced by all residents every single time they go in and out of the building," Rothelowman Principal Stuart Marsland said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=368872]

The tower will rise behind the retained heritage building at 640 Bourke Street, placing residents within walking distance of Southern Cross Station, Flagstaff Gardens, Queen Victoria Market and the Docklands waterfront.

With construction scheduled to begin in October, Far East Consortium has established an onsite display gallery at 640 Bourke Street, including fully built apartments that allow the project's layouts, materials and finishes to be inspected at full scale.

A fully built Eliza Collection apartment is also available to view at the display suite by appointment ahead of the planned October construction commencement.

Eligible purchasers who buy before construction commences can secure the full available off-the-plan stamp duty savings, subject to eligibility and applicable conditions.

Far East Consortium brings Eliza Collection to 640 Bourke Street ahead of October construction start

Queensland

The Queensland Government has set aside its plans to implement their proposed Interstate Land Tax Model.

The controversial model was set to take into account property owned by investors interstate, not just property in Queensland, discouraging any prospective buyers interstate wanting to invest. Those with a wider portfolio across borders would have to pay a higher land tax rate.

The move was heavily criticised, in a market where investors are already sheepish. The lack of investors in the market in Queensland has been a concern all across the state, particularly in South East Queensland, where rents are approaching all time highs due to a lack of supply, supply which only comes from investors buying and leasing property.

The Property Council of Australia welcomed the decision.

Acting NSW Executive Director Adina Cirson said there had been mounting pressure on the Queensland Government in both local and national media, particularly as other State Governments had publicly voiced their refusal to share data with Queensland.&nbsp;

“This is a significant win for NSW residents who faced the possibility of facing double&nbsp;land&nbsp;taxes&nbsp;across the border," Cirson said.

“The&nbsp;Property&nbsp;Council welcomes this announcement as recognition Government has listened to industry’s concerns regarding both the implementation of the&nbsp;tax&nbsp;and its flow on effects on the market.&nbsp;

“Make no mistake NSW residents pay their fair share of&nbsp;land&nbsp;taxes.

“This outcome represents a significant win for both investors and renters and is an acknowledgment of the current housing crisis – and that we all need to be working together to solve this very wicked problem, not making it worse.”

&nbsp;

The controversial model was set to take into account property owned by investors, not just property in Queensland, discouraging any prospective buyers interstate wanting to invest.

QLD government scrap controversial interstate land tax on investment properties

S&amp;S Projects has started construction on their third development transforming Rainbow Bay into one of the Gold Coast’s most sought-after beachfront suburbs.

Hutchinson Builders, one of Queensland’s largest construction companies, has been appointed to deliver the $150 million Esprit project after the luxury apartment development was swamped by an initial $71 million wave of buyers.&nbsp;

Comprising 94 apartments spanning two interconnected buildings, Esprit will take luxury amenities to a new level with the Gold Coast’s first ever residents’ only wellness rooftop and luxurious recreation area, Club Esprit.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102921 project_image_fid=172129]

The Cottee Parker Architects-designed Esprit features a collection of floorplans, including spacious two and three-bedroom residences spanning the lengths of the 12 and seven-storey buildings.

Jayde Pezet, of Pezet Matheson, said Hutchinson Builders infallible reputation across the construction industry and great balance sheet to back it up offers certainty and peace of mind to buyers.

“As one of Queensland’s largest construction companies, Hutchinson’s are well equipped to ensure the viability of the project and navigate the challenges facing the industry at this time, which provides our buyers with peace of mind,” Pezet said.

Centrally located in the heart of Rainbow Bay’s relaxed beachside community, Esprit will offer café culture and natural amenity at its doorstep, while the rooftop will deliver sweeping views in every direction across the world-famous Snapper Rocks and Rainbow Bay Beachfront.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102921 project_image_fid=172173]

S&amp;S Projects has announced the final release of apartments at Esprit, priced from $995,000 for the two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments and from $1.95 million for the three-bedroom residences. Two- bedroom residences offer living spaces from 109 sqm to 128 sqm, while three-bedroom designs span from 151 sqm to 215 sqm.

When completed, Esprit residents will not only secure a well-designed apartment but will also enjoy a lifetime membership to one of the most impressive and exclusive wellness clubs on the Gold Coast.

Club Esprit will deliver&nbsp;a fully equipped gym, yoga lawn, private remedial treatment room, ice bath, infrared sauna, steam rooms, 25-metre infinity edge lap pool and poolside cabanas.

“When you consider the level of amenity residents are buying into, the superb location, and the superiority of design, you genuinely can’t find better value on the coast right now,” said Pezet.

“Residents are essentially securing an immaculately designed home as well as a lifetime membership to one of the most impressive and exclusive wellness clubs to exist on the Coast.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102921 project_image_fid=172175]

The exercise amenity is balanced by a sprawling residents’ recreational space, including a children’s play lawn complete with modern play equipment, private dining room, private terraces, barbecue areas and an outdoor cinema.

Esprit is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024.

With Esprit now in the construction phase, it brings to three the number of active developments under way by S&amp;S Projects in the coastal hotspot, all of which have hit the spot with lifestyle buyers.

Esprit comes on the heels of the company’s $74 million Flow Residences, hailed as one of Australia’s best-selling beachfront projects, and Awaken Residences, which set a record penthouse sale price of $8.15 million for the Coolangatta area.

Construction of Flow has reached a milestone with the building topping out and edging closer to completion later this year, while construction is progressing at Awaken with the basement completed of the boutique 12-level project starting to take shape on a prime site atop Point Danger.

S&amp;S Project’s Director Paul Gedoun said with the construction of the first two projects having now considerably progressed, it only made sense to begin works on the group’s third Rainbow Bay development.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102921 project_image_fid=172174]

“Our trilogy of stunning developments has been exceptionally well received by the market and they undoubtedly set a new standard of modern coastal living on the southern Gold Coast,” he said.&nbsp;

“Each of these projects will deliver their own unique interpretation of relaxed beachfront sophistication that we believe has set Rainbow Bay apart as one of the Gold Coast’s most desirable places to live.

“We are excited to have Hutchinson Builders on Esprit with their local Coolangatta team on the job. They are locals and employ locals and that is important to us,” Gedoun added.&nbsp;

Final release of apartments at Esprit, Rainbow Bay, as Hutchies start construction

Low-rise apartments continue their descent on the popular Albatross Avenue, with Mermaid Beach maintaining its place as a hotspot for developers.&nbsp;

The new plans come from Burleigh Heads-based developers, Highlife Homes, headed by James George, who founded the company, steadily progressing from renovating new homes, to luxury homes and duplexes and then to townhouse developments.

<img alt="Render of the 68 Albatross Ave project" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fa345470-e8bb-4b85-a7ba-ee23682e345d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-09-14%20at%209.25.06%20pm.png?VersionId=oiL3TWHnwrymSm_SmXmjC1Qvb7PLuwsU" />Render of the proposed Albatross Avenue development. Credit:&nbsp;Raunik

The group has lodged plans for an 809 sqm site at 68 Albatross Ave, with plans for a four-storey, eight-apartment project, offering a mix of three-bedroom residences, designed by architects, Raunik Design Group.

Taking inspiration from its coastal location, the building incorporates materials, colours and textures prevalent to the beachside locality, including light-toned timber look features, timber soffits, feature stone cladding, glazed balustrades and landscaped planters which soften and juxtapose the concrete render.&nbsp;

The development also seeks to provide a higher-end product, in a bid to allow local residents to “age in place” within the local community as they downsize from traditionally larger family homes to a more compact, lower-maintenance dwelling typology, without necessitating moving out of the Mermaid Beach locale.&nbsp;

Each floor will house two apartments, with the homes adopting an open plan layout, with the living, dining and kitchen adjoining to generously-sized terraces and balconies, oriented toward the east.&nbsp;

Honouring the village skyline, 191 Stratton is set back from the street with a weatherboard and metal fa&ccedil;ade that reflects the timber and tin common to the area&rsquo;s residential buildings.

Designed by Ellivo Architects, the development weaves the soft curves of its exterior into each residence, complemented by a neutral colour palette that speaks to the coastal locale.

The apartments embrace sunlight with wide orientations, open-plan living and dining and landscaped balconies.

Victoria &amp; Albert is a landmark mixed-use development featuring two residential towers, Victoria Residences and Albert Residences

Colliers&rsquo; director residential David Higgins says the&nbsp;development is the first major apartment project in Broadbeach for the last five years.

A very strong family market, Broadbeach is back in the frame with this new oceanside precinct offering one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments with private amenities.

Urban has taken a look in detail at V&amp;A, and what buyers will like about the project.

1. Strong development team

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=184933]

Developed by Iris Capital, with apartments designed by DBI Design, Victoria &amp; Albert residences are being delivered by a strong development team.

Founded and led by entrepreneur Sam Arnaout, Iris Capital now boasts more than&nbsp;$3.5 billion in enterprise value, significantly expanding over the past year after the acquisition of 17 Ibis hotels from AccorInvest.

The Sydney-headquartered development giant is behind the large-scale East End development in Newcastle, as well as other projects including Bondi&rsquo;s Grand and Potts Point&rsquo;s new Queensgate development.

&ldquo;We are no stranger to large scale projects and have built a reputation on our ability to deliver transformative developments that add remarkable value to their broader community,&rdquo;&nbsp;Arnaout said.

2. Broadbeach&rsquo;s most walkable new development

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=184935]

&ldquo;V&amp;A is arguably the Gold Coast&rsquo;s most walkable new address&rdquo;, Arnaout said.

Located in the heart of Broadbeach, the project scores a 10 out of 10 for walkability, thanks to its close proximity to the light rail, casino and restaurant precinct.

Residents&rsquo; daily needs are just moments from their door, with Oasis Shopping Centre, which contains a Woolworths and other specialty retailers, only a two-minute walk from the residence.

Just four minutes&rsquo; drive away is the expansive surrounds of Pacific Fair, while Gold Coast airport is only half an hour away.

3. Resort-style living

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=184934]

Both Victoria Residences and Albert Residences offer an elevated recreational podium that connects the two, featuring a 25-metre lap pool, gym, yoga deck and residents&rsquo; lounge.

Indoor and outdoor amenities are surrounded by lush, subtropical landscaping, including a zen garden and outdoor dining spaces in this sprawling beachside day club area.

Both towers also feature&nbsp;top-floor residents-only lounges, complete with dining, yoga room, offices and views across the Gold Coast skyline.

Hosting private functions are a breeze with two private dining rooms, each boasting an adjoining kitchen, one galley-style, along with a private wine cellar.

4. Ground-floor retail and dining

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=178909]

A vibrant new retail arcade is on offer at the world-class Broadbeach address, with Victoria &amp; Albert boasting the first high-end residential, retail and culinary precinct in central Broadbeach since the Oracle towers more than a decade ago.

&ldquo;Just an elevator ride away, take a leisurely stroll and you&rsquo;ll be sure to find new restaurants and bars to sample, no matter which route you take&rdquo;, the project marketing reads.

The precinct boasts over 50 restaurants and cafés within 300 metres of its front door.

5. Ideal location

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=180734]

Surrounded by beautiful natural landscapes, Victoria &amp; Albert invites outdoor leisure and recreation all year round.

Combined with a subtropical climate, it forms a breathtaking locale that residents will find a hard time abandoning.

Along the coastline, residents can enjoy a bike ride past Kurrawa and Mermaid Beaches, or a walk on the beach from the Spit.

Other neighbourhood recreational amenities include Burleigh Head National Park, Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary and, for golf lovers, both the Southport and Burleigh Golf Clubs.
