<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sunland-group">Sunland Group</a> has officially lodged plans for its first Gold Coast apartment project since the departure of the Abedian family from the company three years ago, unveiling a new high-rise proposal for a prominent Broadbeach corner site on Old Burleigh Road.

The application was submitted by an entity directed by Tom Jamieson, stepson of longtime Sunland leader Soheil Abedian, and Riaz Rezvanipour, brother-in-law of Sahba Abedian, Soheil’s son.

Sunland acquired the 1,283 sqm site on the corner of Old Burleigh Road and Armrick Avenue for $9.5 million late last year and is now seeking approval for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/99-101-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">42-storey tower with 81 apartments</a>.

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/contreras-earl-architecture">Contreras Earl Architecture</a>, the proposed tower at 99-101 Old Burleigh Road would deliver a predominantly larger-format apartment mix aimed at the owner-occupier market. Plans include 17 two-bedroom apartments, 55 three-bedroom apartments, and nine four-bedroom residences across 35 residential levels.

The development also incorporates three basement levels, four podium parking levels, two levels of communal recreation facilities, and rooftop plant and equipment. A total of 189 car spaces are proposed, significantly exceeding the 90 spaces required under the planning scheme.

The architecture adopts a sculpted, curvilinear form, with deep wraparound balconies and integrated landscaping intended to soften the tower’s vertical expression. The planning report states the building’s “slender footprint/form provides a complimentary yet varied built form within the local streetscape” and contributes to “a varied, yet ordered skyline.”

Contreras Earl noted in its Architectural Statement that from the early stages, the project addressed a fundamental challenge: how to accommodate the required residential yield while avoiding the conventional model of a tower sitting on a rigid, fully resolved parking podium.

“The most direct response would have been to consolidate parking into a singular, flat podium and extrude a repetitive tower above,” the statement said. “While efficient, this approach would result in a consolidated built form with limited engagement with the surrounding landscape and public realm.”

Instead, the conventional podium model was “deliberately rejected”. The architects described the base of the building as “a landscaped architectural condition where structure, planting and circulation are integrated”.

“Rather than presenting a continuous built mass, the base of the building is articulated through a series of concrete planter elements that organise the podium into a fragmented system,” the statement said. “This approach reduces the perceived bulk of the lower levels while establishing a more permeable interface with the streetscape and adjacent open space.”

<img alt="Sunland" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="923fad8d-c960-4527-8fbe-975cf1ddf88d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-25%20at%2010.32.03%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=pngwb0hYOIUpq9vDw6F2EsOiVuHF3DiX" />

&nbsp;

The site sits within the High Density Residential Zone and inside the City of Gold Coast’s unrestricted “HX” building height area, where the planning framework anticipates intensified residential development tied to the expanding light rail corridor. The planning report notes the area is undergoing “transition toward more intense development forms” given its proximity to Broadbeach, Surfers Paradise, and high-frequency public transport infrastructure.

Positioned directly opposite Broadbeach Park and within walking distance of Florida Gardens light rail station, the development would sit among a rapidly evolving stretch of Old Burleigh Road that has become one of the Gold Coast’s most active apartment development corridors.

The application joins a growing pipeline of luxury residential projects reshaping Broadbeach, including nearby developments by 5Point Projects, Polycell, and Graya.

The planning report argues the project contributes toward the Gold Coast’s long-term housing targets under the South East Queensland Regional Plan, which forecasts the need for more than 100,000 additional high-rise dwellings across the city by 2046.

The Minns Labor Government has established the new Bays West Delivery Authority to lead the development&nbsp;of the Bays West Precinct and Blackwattle Bay Precinct.&nbsp;

The Authority is charged with creating Sydney’s newest precinct, a thriving, connected, sustainable hub with White Bay Power Station as its cultural heart. Its vision is to build on the area’s natural, cultural and industrial history to shape a vibrant new neighbourhood.

The precinct will deliver up to 8,500 well-located homes, including a minimum of 10 per cent affordable and essential worker homes. Combine new housing with public open space, opening public access to the waterfront for the first time in more than 100 years, while retaining important deep-water facilities to support Sydney’s working harbour.

Located just minutes from the Sydney CBD and connected to a world-class metro, ferry, walking and cycling links, the Bays West precinct will rebalance housing growth towards well-serviced inner-city locations and help tackle the state’s housing crisis.

The Bays West Delivery Authority,&nbsp;an agency of the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure, will report to the NSW Minister for Lands and Property who already has oversight of major precinct renewal projects including at Blackwattle Bay and Barangaroo.

As part of the broader Bays West transformation, the Minns Government recently announced that a proposal from Lendlease to redevelop part of the Bays West Precinct has progressed to Stage 2 of the NSW Government’s unsolicited proposals process.

<img alt="Sydney" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2ed71eb9-d8e8-4fa7-b9d1-de4531dcf2f3" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-25%20at%209.42.31%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=IDryFIbped9SNDg72LEN_EecvhUsOPvp" />

The Minns Labor Government has also confirmed the Bays West precinct will have a new suburb name. This will be the first major suburb built in close proximity to Sydney’s CBD in decades and will encompass the area currently being referred to as Bays West, including Glebe Island and the White Bay Power Station. Served by a new Metro station just five minutes from the CBD, it will become one of the most populous suburbs in the Inner West and one of Sydney’s premier cultural destinations.

An early works program is taking shape, which&nbsp;includes the first stages of an international design competition.&nbsp;

The aim of the Bays West&nbsp;International&nbsp;Design Competition is to&nbsp;ensure design excellence is embedded in the project from the start. The competition will deliver an&nbsp;urban framework that defines the character, ambition and long-term identity of&nbsp;this&nbsp;former industrial precinct as it transitions to a vibrant, inclusive and sustainable residential&nbsp;neighbourhood.

The competition will be led by the Bays West Delivery Authority in partnership with Government Architect NSW.&nbsp;

It will launch with an invitation for a global Expressions of Interest, before moving to an invitation-only stage that will be assessed by a panel that&nbsp;will provide advice to Cabinet who will select a winner.

Premier of NSW, Chris Minns said the establishment of the new Authority is the first step in transforming the Bays West precinct into a vibrant, livable suburb minutes from the Sydney CBD and two stops from Hunter St Station on the Metro West line.

“The Authority will deliver well-located homes close to the heart of the city and integrate the new precinct with Blackwattle Bay and the new Sydney Fish Market.

“This is a generational opportunity to build a new suburb on the city’s edge and open the harbour foreshore to the public for the first time in a century.”&nbsp;

Minister for Lands and Property Steve Kamper said the new Bays West Delivery Authority established by the Minns Government will turbocharge the development of Sydney’s newest suburb.

“The Authority is working at a record pace to deliver an international design competition, planning pathways and a financial model so that this development benefits Sydney with well-designed homes in a central location, close to public transport, jobs, entertainment and essential services.

“If we want Sydney to stay liveable and affordable, we need to be bold about using underutilised government-owned land to deliver homes for the future while making sure essential working harbour functions can be accommodated.”

Bays West Delivery Authority established to "turbocharge" Sydney’s newest suburb

Around 400 additional homes could be built at Southwark Grounds on Port Road, lifting total site capacity from 1300 to around 1700 dwellings.

A recently approved code amendment would allow apartment towers of up to 14 storeys in some areas of Renewal SA’s redevelopment of the former West End Brewery.

Renewal SA Acting Chief Executive Shane Wingard said he welcomed the code amendment, with the increase in heights and homes making a positive impact on the supply of high-quality, well-connected housing close to the city.

“By going higher across some parts of Southwark Grounds, we are adding a substantial number of very well-located homes with little impact on project delivery time or planned open space,” Mr Wingard said.

Since the project officially launched in 2025, Mr Wingard said more than 12,000 enquiries had been received about living at Southwark Grounds.

“The very strong early interest we’ve seen since homes were first released in the precinct reinforces our plans to create more housing opportunities,” he said.

The Southwark Grounds code amendment was launched in December last year, with community engagement undertaken over five weeks from January.

It proposed increasing maximum building heights from eight to 14 storeys on the eastern section of Southwark Grounds, and to 12 storeys across the remainder of the site, with minimum building heights ranging from two to four storeys.

The code amendment was implemented through an Early Commencement policy in late January, allowing developers to quickly explore the viability of increased height and housing yield while other planning processes continue.

One of the first developers delivering apartment sites have already finalised redesigns to increase the number of apartments following the code amendment.

Samaras’ development adjacent to the future Colonel Light Park is now planning to deliver 125 apartments across 11 storeys, significantly greater than original plans of around 50 apartments across four storeys.

The developer is also exploring the potential for additional affordable housing outcomes.

Most of the apartments at Southwark Grounds will be delivered within a master-planned precinct on a large parcel of land on the eastern portion of the site, covering around two-thirds of its 8.4 hectares.

Wingard said detailed precinct planning over the coming months may identify further opportunities to increase yield further that could see total apartment numbers at Southwark Grounds, exceed this number.

Affordable homes at Southwark Grounds will also see a net increase, with Renewal SA maintaining its commitment to a minimum of 20 per cent affordable housing across the development.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Civil works have begun across the site, with construction under way on the first new roads surrounding a townhouse precinct in the south‑west corner of Southwark Grounds. This includes Renewal SA’s 17 Founder’s Row homes, which are on track for completion by Christmas.

“We expect to have people living at Southwark Grounds by the end of the year, so delivering roads and public spaces for those residents is among our highest priorities.”

Construction of 40 townhouses off Anderson Street, known as West Village and being delivered by Contour, is forecast to begin in mid‑2026. Kolabb’s Anderson Lane development will follow shortly after, delivering a further 26 townhouses.

Southwark Grounds is a state government‑led urban renewal project now set to deliver around 1,700 homes over the next decade.

Homes will be supported by a supermarket, a range of retail and hospitality offerings anchored by a revitalised Walkerville Brew Tower, a childcare centre, car parking and well‑connected public spaces.

Brisbane developer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/cavcorp">Cavcorp</a> has lodged plans for a new mixed-use residential development at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/55-wyandra-street-teneriffe-qld-4005">55 Wyandra Street</a>, Teneriffe, anchored by an 85-metre public laneway designed to reconnect the suburb’s riverfront with the Gasworks precinct.

The buildings, known as Teneriffe House and Teneriffe Lane, would replace the existing Queensland Cotton head office site with a 15-storey residential tower transitioning to eight storeys toward Helen Street. The project has been designed by Plazibat Architects and lodged as a code assessable development application for 93 apartments across a 3,401 sqm mixed-use site within the Newstead and Teneriffe Waterfront neighbourhood plan.

Central to the scheme is the transformation of an existing service easement into a publicly accessible cross-block connection linking Wyandra and Helen Streets. Cavcorp says the new laneway will act as both a pedestrian shortcut and a landscaped civic space between the Teneriffe Riverwalk, ferry terminal, and Gasworks precinct.

<img alt="First Look: Cavcorp unveils Teneriffe House and Teneriffe Lane plans for landmark wellness tower in Teneriffe" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="26e7f058-b065-4de8-b13d-a2b8cb64dfcc" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/bldg.png?VersionId=sELS0ZKYi361oYipUa1BIKfe_.DLZoFV" />

“The revised proposal delivers a legacy public-realm cross-block link, permanently secured for community use, transforming an existing private easement into a safe, high-quality pedestrian connection between the Teneriffe heritage riverwalk and the Gasworks–Long Island precinct,” the planning report states.

The laneway will sit beneath a large subtropical loggia integrated into the podium levels of the development. The design incorporates deep landscaping, water gardens, lobby spaces, business lounges, and ground-floor apartments to create what Cavcorp describes as a climate-responsive “urban verandah.”

The tower itself has been designed as a slender form with recessed floorplates and curved translucent corners inspired by contemporary Japanese architecture. The building height aligns with the Commercial Road precinct controls, which permit towers up to 15 storeys within proximity to Longland Street.

The project will comprise a mix of larger-format apartments aimed at owner-occupiers, downsizers, and families. The proposed apartment mix includes 11 loggia apartments across the lower levels, 50 four-bedroom Sky-Terrace apartments from levels three to seven, and 32 Sky-Pool Homes occupying the upper tower levels. The Sky-Pool Homes will feature private thermal plunge pools integrated into oversized balconies.

According to the application, the apartments are intended to reinterpret the scale and character of Teneriffe’s woolstore conversions and Queensland homes within a vertical residential format.

“The sky-pool homes build on Cavcorp’s previous projects and introduce a distinct apartment typology to Teneriffe, informed by both local and international precedent and responding to an identified market demand for enhanced safety, space and amenity,” the planning submission notes.

A major focus of the proposal is its five-level wellness and lifestyle offering, extending from the basement through to the rooftop.

Amenities proposed include a rooftop Swim &amp; Racquet Club with a 25-metre Olympic lap pool and tennis court, coworking spaces and libraries, golf simulators, wine storage, concierge facilities, business lounges, pet wash areas, and rooftop longevity-focused wellness spaces with spas, outdoor fitness zones, and landscaped terraces.

All parking will be concealed within basement levels accessed from Wyandra and Helen Streets. Cavcorp says the deep-basement engineering approach allows the entire ground plane to prioritise landscaping, pedestrian movement, and active frontage rather than vehicle infrastructure.

The development continues Cavcorp’s concentration in Newstead and Teneriffe, where the Brisbane developer has delivered a number of apartment projects including Lucent, Le Bain, and Luminare, as well as the Long Island Wellness Precinct nearby. Several of those projects have received national design and architecture awards, including recognition under Brisbane’s “Buildings that Breathe” program.

Focus Group Investments has lodged plans for a new apartment development at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/64-70-hanover-street-fitzroy-vic-3065">64–70 Hanover Street</a> in Fitzroy, seeking to utilise the Victorian Government’s recently introduced Great Design Fast Track pathway to accelerate approvals for the project.

The proposal is among the latest developments to emerge through the state-led initiative, which was established to fast-track well-designed residential projects in activity centres and transport-connected inner-city locations. The pathway allows qualifying developments that meet elevated design and housing benchmarks to bypass traditional council planning timeframes and instead be assessed directly by the Department of Transport and Planning.

Designed by SJB, the development will comprise a mix of apartments above activated lower levels, with a strong focus on architectural articulation, landscaping, and communal amenity. The design response seeks to balance the industrial character of Richmond’s former warehouse precincts with a more contemporary residential form.

<img alt="First look: Focus Group Investments taps Victoria’s Great Design Fast Track for Richmond apartments" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="abea51cc-d85b-479e-9aef-a589f3b37ca7" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/ground.png?VersionId=e1Kf8EyPWwyiVumtqQ4rM5S4GpOR3CCz" />

Proposed are 63 new dwellings, a wide ranging mix of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, and townhouses and duplexes. They will be spread across a part-three, part-eight storey building.

The Planning and Urban Context Report by Tract says the development is of an "exemplary architectural standard" and has been carefully crafted by SJB Architects.

"Dwellings&nbsp;will benefit from excellent access to natural light, cross-ventilation opportunities and extensive communal space," the report noted.

The architectural material highlights the project’s integration of landscaped elements and communal spaces throughout the building. The proposal also incorporates sustainability initiatives aligned with the Victorian Government’s push for higher-performing apartment developments under the fast-track program.

The Great Design Fast Track was unveiled by the Victorian Government in 2024 as part of a broader housing supply strategy aimed at accelerating the delivery of new homes. Projects assessed through the pathway must demonstrate high-quality architecture, sustainability outcomes, and housing diversity while being located close to public transport and existing infrastructure.

Focus Group, founder and led by Paul De Lutiis, is increasingly active across Melbourne’s inner suburbs, targeting well-connected urban renewal locations suited to medium and higher-density residential development. The Fitzroy proposal continues that strategy, leveraging the area’s strong transport links, established retail amenity, and proximity to the CBD.

Fitzroy has been one of the most popular spots for developers and buyers in recent years. The likes of PACE Development Group, SMA Projects, Crema Group and Chapter Group, currently selling projects in the suburb.

Burleigh Heads is one of the most popular&nbsp;suburbs across the whole of the Gold Coast when it comes to multi-res apartment developments.

Given how in demand higher density projects are, it&#39;s rare to see a boutique project in the pipeline.

A recent development application lodged by K2H Developments, in a joint venture with&nbsp;Golconda Property Group, will see just four townhouse-style dwellings created at&nbsp;8 Bullimah Avenue -&nbsp;just one street back from Tallebudgera Creek and just the other side of the Gold Coast Highway from Burleigh Head National Park.

They will be&nbsp;built on the 550 sqm site and will each have three-bedrooms and two-bathrooms across the three levels, as well as a garaging for two cars.

&ldquo;Each dwelling has been carefully designed to make the best use of the site whilst enhancing the visual appreciation of the site,&rdquo; UPS said in their development application documents.

<a href="/buildings/beju-residences-8-bullimah-avenue-burleigh-heads"><img alt="" height="776" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-05-06_at_12.39.56_pm.png" width="970" /></a> 
A render of the proposed development at 8 Bullimah Avenue, Burleigh Heads. Image sourced.&nbsp;

Designed by Mi Design Studio, the ground floor will include the garage of each unit and a mud room and store area. The rear of each residence will also include the bin store and clothesline and a small landscape strip.

Each dwelling is benefitted by their own separate access with unit one with its own private access from a separate entrance off Bullimah Avenue and unit four accessed from the rear. Each dwelling has access to the floors above by way of stairs and lift.

The first floor will home the three-bedrooms and two-bathrooms, including an ensuite, with the second-floor featuring the living, kitchen and dining areas, following an open-plan layout that flows seamlessly onto the adjoining balcony areas.

The roof terrace will be open in nature, providing a private open space for the occupants of each dwelling, benefiting from views around the site. The space will also include a stairway, lift, powder room and laundry.

Each unit has a north-eastern aspect with units one and four also benefitting from aspects to the east and north-west respectively.

Benefiting from close proximity to a number of public transport, retail, dining, education and entertainment options, the site is within walking distance to the Koala Park neighbourhood centre, just 1.2-kilometres to Stockland shopping centre and 100-metres from a bus stop along the Gold Coast Highway.

Four residences are set to be built across the 550 sqm site, each with three-bedrooms and two-bathrooms, along with a powder room, and a two-car garage over three-storeys.

Townhouse-style dwellings set for Burleigh Heads site

Peninsula Collection, the final piece of ASF Group&#39;s The Peninsula Hope Island master-planned community, has officially sold out well before the construction completion. 
 
Stage 3 of the gated community development is comprised of 63 three- to five-bedroom apartments (Peninsula Collection) and 22 three-storey terrace homes (Peninsula Terraces). This final stage followed sell-outs&nbsp;of Peninsula Homes and Peninsula Residences, which make up the waterfront community located in Hope Island Resort. 
 
ASF Group Marketing Director Daniel Fang said there was a mix of local owner-occupiers looking to downsize and interstate migrants &amp; investors captivated by the Gold Coast&#39;s lifestyle and value offering. 
 
&ldquo;We saw a lot of demand from southern buyers - particularly from the dense inner-city postcodes of Sydney, Melbourne and also Canberra,&rdquo; Fang said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=22034 project_image_fid=170355]

&ldquo;They were drawn to the unique recreational lifestyle of the northern Gold Coast, with three championship golf courses connected by golf buggy tracks adjacent to the community. Furthermore, their decision to move was hastened by lockdowns over the past two years. Other interstate buyers were also attracted by the strong potential for capital gains, with the 2032 Summer Olympics set to be hosted in Brisbane.&rdquo; 
 
On the interest from locals, Fang said the majority sought to downsize to Peninsula Collection and Peninsula Terraces which feature greater accessibility and in-built buttons in each residence linked to gated community security.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=22034 project_image_fid=170358]

Construction kicked off on the final stage of The Peninsula right before Christmas, with the final stage slated for completion around mid-next-year.

Archidiom designed the final masterplan&nbsp;release of Peninsula Collection and the adjacent Peninsula Terraces.

Preceding Stage 3 were Peninsula Homes, which comprised 17 townhomes and Peninsula Residences, another collection of 40 apartments.

Peninsula Collection&#39;s apartments offer spacious backwards or balconies with views of the resort - with residential spaces blending seamlessly with the lush surrounds of the precinct.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6762 project_image_fid=191906]

ASF Group is well advanced on their next project, The AU - a different proposition to the Peninsula Collection. 
 
The AU, which is development approved, will see just 14 full-floor apartments rising from the Surfers Paradise beachfront. There are only 12 full-floor apartments (spanning 255m&sup2;) and two-three storey penthouses, one of which was snapped up by a local developer earlier this year for nearly $9 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6762 project_image_fid=194781]

The 19-storey tower located on The Esplanade features striking French Deco-inspired interiors by the Sydney interior design legend, Greg Natale. 
 
This resort-style residential tower takes full advantage of its beachside location. Residents are offered a selection of world-class amenities including an oceanview wet-edge pool, gym, sauna, club lounge and in-person concierge service. 
 
&quot;What&#39;s unique about The AU is that you can make the most of the Gold Coast&#39;s world-class beachfront from morning til night,&quot; Fang says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6762 project_image_fid=193345]

&quot;The Esplanade promenade offers an unparalleled level of access to the beach throughout the day, with residents enjoying a game of volleyball or having a beachside picnic on the well-lit Surfers Paradise Beach.&quot; 
 
&quot;You can think of the promenade as what you would find in the beachside boardwalks of Miami or Nice - an energetic coastal strip that is a hub of culture and entertainment for the community.&quot;

&quot;As Surfers Paradise experiences a fundamental transformation through new infrastructure projects and precincts being built, The AU offers a unique and exclusive opportunity in a world-renowned neighbourhood synonymous with the Gold Coast.&quot;

Construction kicked off on the final stage of The Peninsula right before Christmas, with the final stage slated for completion for mid-next year. 


ASF Group sell out Hope Island's Peninsula Collection

The first resort and marina precinct in almost 20 years is set to be launched in the Whitsundays.

The approved $350 million Shute Harbour Marina Resort&nbsp;aims to transform Shute Harbour into an extensive foreshore with a&nbsp;resort hotel and a&nbsp;residential precinct featuring restaurants, retail outlets and marine services.

A new near 400-berth marina will also be part of the development.<img alt="" height="3095" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/211208_v1_final.jpg" width="5000" /> 
The $350 million Shute Harbour Marina Resort masterplanned development. Image supplied.

Shute Harbour Marina Resort will be the first major marina and residential development in the Whitsundays since 2006 and will create the ultimate waterfront lifestyle for residents and tourists in one of the world&rsquo;s most sought-after sailing locations.

The multi-use marina, located on a prime 28-hectare waterfront site, will tap into a critical shortage of secure cyclone protected boat moorings in the state&rsquo;s north.

The marina resort will provide a much-needed boost for post-Covid tourism in the Whitsundays region and create 700 jobs during and post-construction.

Shute Harbour Marina Resort will also include a new commercial hub known as Pier 61, as part of a master-planned marina plaza that will create a range of new retail and commercial outlets for the waterfront development.

<img alt="" height="1500" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/final_waterfront_house_courtyard_renderv2.jpg" width="1200" /> 
The $350 million Shute Harbour Marina Resort masterplanned development. Image supplied.

&ldquo;This is a development of regional and state significance that will deliver enormous benefit to the local economy,&rdquo; said Project Director Mark Daniels, who heads the&nbsp;consortium developing the project.

&ldquo;Shute Harbour is the gateway to the Whitsundays, with an outstanding marina location, and our plans will bring much needed tourism infrastructure to the region and complement the township&rsquo;s existing tourism and marine facilities.&rdquo;

&ldquo;In particular, we&rsquo;ve seen growing demand for marina berths in recent years and this is an exceptional offering that delivers a highly accessible mainland residential marina resort with a superb range of amenities and supporting services,&rdquo; he added.

The Shute Harbour Marina Resort master plan comprises 58 managed resort dwellings, each with their own private marina berths of 25 to 35-metres at their doorstep, along with managed apartments with resort club facilities, and a 100-plus room resort hotel, including function and meeting rooms, bars, restaurants, swimming pool and undercover parking.

The entire precinct will be linked by public boardwalks, lookout spaces and seating throughout, with plans to also establish new public parks and a community cyclone shelter on site.

Shute Harbour Marina Resort is poised to become a popular destination for residents, locals and tourists who will be drawn to the village-style precinct that will host a marina cafe and bar, marina club, supermarket, bottle shop, marina office, chandlery, marine electronics and charter operators.

The project is being undertaken by an Australian consortium headed by Mark Daniels, Mark McLachlan, Greg Phillips and Sam Wade.

The consortium members have a combined 70 years&rsquo; experience in the development industry with a collective delivery of projects to the tune of $1.25 billion, including Encounter Lakes, Encounter Bay SA &ndash; an award winning regional residential development set around a man-made environmentally sustainable saltwater self- flushing lake, Holdfast Shores, Glenelg SA &ndash; an integrated residential, tourism, retail and commercial development involving co-operative action between Commonwealth, State and Local Government, and Seaford, Noarlunga SA &ndash; a major urban &ldquo;Greenfield&rdquo; development comprising the transformation of 730 hectares into an integrated community development with a projected population over 15,000.

Daniels, who has extensive experience in project delivery in the Whitsundays region over the past decade, said the development is a game-changer for Shute Harbour which is set to benefit from the recent reopening of international borders.

Marina berths will range from 10 to 35 metres for mono and multi-hull craft, while the proposed land and berth packages will include marina facilities to accommodate boats up to 35-metres.

Berths are priced between $175,000 and $1 million, with each berth sold on a 99- year lease. Stage one will offer free-hold residential waterfront sites of 440 sqm which are earmarked for two and three-storey design concepts, with the land-and-berth prices starting from $1.75 million.

Expressions of interest are also being taken on future stages which will include marina loft apartments and plaza terrace homes. Development of the first stage of Shute Harbour Marina Resort, which will include the marina and the stage-one release of land and marina berths, is expected to take two years to complete.

Construction is targeted to commence in 12 months.

Shute Harbour Marina Resort has taken 20 years to gain all necessary approvals to proceed and was identified as a project of significance by the Queensland Government in 2006. The project benefits from its accessibility by air with three regional airports located within 30-minutes to 90-minutes drive.

The Whitsundays has a population of more than 35,500 people with tourism among the major contributors to the region&rsquo;s $5.9 billion economy.

The master planned foreshore development will feature a resort hotel alongside an extensive residential precinct featuring restaurants, retail outlets and marine services.

National integrated property developer and investor, Cbus Property has announced the appointment of Hutchinson Builders on the next phase of works on its residential tower on the Brisbane CBD riverfront, 443 Queen St.

They&#39;ll be taking over from the collapsed builder Probuild, who were in the final stages of the construction process before their demise.

The announcement marks Cbus Property&rsquo;s third collaboration with Australia&rsquo;s largest privately owned builder, following appointments on the 205 North Quay commercial office tower in Brisbane, which is currently under construction, and The Langston Epping, a recently completed three-tower residential development in Sydney&rsquo;s north west.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6226 project_image_fid=37089]

Cbus Property&rsquo;s Chief Executive Officer, Adrian Pozzo, said the business was again &ldquo;proud to partner with Hutchies&rdquo;.

&ldquo;We are confident the appointment of Hutchinson Builders, one of Australia&rsquo;s most renowned and reliable builders, will deliver this iconic residential tower for Brisbane&rsquo;s city skyline to the highest possible standard,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;As communicated to our purchasers, since commencing preliminary works on site three weeks ago, Cbus Property, together with Hutchinson Builders, continues to finalise subcontractor negotiations and prepare a revised construction programme. Once finalised, we will provide an update to purchasers with a more definitive completion timeline.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6226 project_image_fid=37148]

Hutchinson Builders&rsquo; Director, Russell Fryer, confirmed that the contractor was already on site at 443 Queen St, with initial works underway.

&ldquo;We have a long and proud history delivering similar premium high-rise residential projects across Australia,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;We have a handpicked team that has recently completed a five-star hotel, The Langham Gold Coast, demonstrating our ability to achieve the high-quality outcomes expected for 443 Queen St, and we are working closely with Cbus Property, the consultants, subcontractors and suppliers to successfully complete this landmark building for Brisbane.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6226 project_image_fid=37091]

Pozzo said that despite the delays to construction, Cbus Property remained focused on ensuring the successful completion of 443 Queen St and delivering one of the highest-quality residential buildings to be developed in the area.

&ldquo;We continue to reassure purchasers that this unique residential development is nearing completion, and that we will deliver a landmark building with the utmost attention to detail and finish,&rdquo; he said.

Bellevue Queensland, the Brisbane-based, family-ran&nbsp;construction and development firm,&nbsp;have lodged plans for their next local project.

Dubbed Sofia, on a rare&nbsp;triple-road fronted&nbsp;amalgamated site at&nbsp;35 Swann Road and&nbsp;5 Central Avenue in the leafy Taringa, will comprise just 20 apartments across the predominantly five-level building. One apartment&nbsp;is considered a sixth storey due to the sloping topography of the land.

The apartments will range from 106 sqm to 123 sqm, each with three-bedrooms and two-bathrooms.

Designed by Hayes Anderson Lynch Architects, residences follow an open plan design in the living, kitchen and dining areas, created with a focus on suiting local downsizes and families.

The building design is heavily modulated through the use and incorporation of large, cantilevered balconies, angled and curved walls, curved vertical aluminium feature screening, chamfered slab projections and full height window and door glazing.

<img alt="" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" height="758" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-30_at_12.52.31_pm.png" width="1542" />

With a light pastel palette, planter boxes on balconies with trailing greenery, stepped facades and a stepped roof form, help soften the built form and connect it to the local landscape.

A generously sized communal rooftop open space has been devised, designed with both passive and active recreational opportunities. Crowning Sofia will be a pool, barbecue facilities, a dining table and a lounge seating area. The area will be landscaped through raised planter beds located along the Swann Rd and Central Ave frontages.

Located within an urban inner-city pocket of Brisbane, the residences sit less than six-kilometres south-west of Brisbane’s CBD. Residents will be well serviced by nearby public transport, namely Taringa Railway Station and bus stops along both Swann Road and Moggill Road. Sofia also falls within close proximity to a number of major shopping centres, urban services, parks, university and schools.

Bellevue has a number of other projects in the pipeline, with residences, Elba in West End and, Atlas in Lutwyche set to launch soon, as well as Element Residences,&nbsp;an exclusive collection of whole-floor apartments on one of the last remaining spaces along East Brisbane’s riverside promenade.

That will&nbsp;comprise just five four-bedroom apartments&nbsp;and one five-bedroom penthouse.

A private local developer is set to develop&nbsp;a rare new luxury low-rise apartment block in the Gold Coast&#39;s Miami.

The boutique residential development, dubbed SANA, at 5-7 Hythe Street, sits on an amalgamated double block totalling 974 sqm, on the prized eastern side of the Gold Coast Highway.

The developers, a collection of local business people and entrepreneurs, engaged Plus Architecture to create to the four-storey building, which will home just 12 apartments.

<a href="/new-apartments/sana-5-hythe-street-miami-qld-4220"><img alt="" height="1224" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-29_at_2.12.14_pm.png" width="1978" /></a>

SANA has been conceived as a sophisticated, modern take on a surf shack by Plus, who created a number of different configurations, including two beach homes across the ground level, each with three bedrooms.

Four apartments will feature across both levels one and two, with Sana topping out with two penthouse apartments on level three, with each apartment is arranged to maximise views to the Miami coastline and beyond.

Crowning the development, the rooftop will have a communal pool deck as well as two private terraces, each with their own pool.

Plus noted in their submission to the local council that SANA is a boutique development that celebrates the relaxed lifestyle of Miami, Gold Coast.

&quot;A paired back material palette consisting of off-form concrete, aluminium &amp; timber look battens provides an honest yet refined architectural form, that rhythmically follows its surrounding landscapes.

&quot;At a pedestrian scale, landscaping softens the built form and plays background to the raw material palette.

&quot;Fixed screening to all elevations further plays on the soft architectural language, as well as providing appropriate privacy + solar shading.&quot;

Several high frequency bus routes service the area, as well as a number of established active transport routes, with dedicated cyclist and pedestrian facilities along Marine Parade connecting the site to Broadbeach, Mermaid Beach and other surrounding suburbs. Sana residents will also benefit from the future Miami Light Rail Station.

Conceived as a sophisticated surf shack by Plus Architecture, the four-storey building is made up of 12 residences in total.

Iris Capital’s transformation of central Broadbeach has moved a step closer with the Gold Coast Council giving development approval for its $800 million V&amp;A apartments on the site of the Niecon Plaza.

Iris Capital’s CEO Sam Arnaout said the decision&nbsp;would pave the way for an anticipated construction start later this year.

“We’re absolutely delighted that the Gold Coast Council has seen the vision of V&amp;A and how it will play an enormous role in transforming Broadbeach,” said Arnaout.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=178909]

“We were very eager to get the approval to meet our timelines for delivery and we’re now focussing our attention on sales and marketing with the view of a construction start later this year.”

Taking its name from Broadbeach streets, Victoria and Albert, the project will comprise 398 apartments over two towers of 40 and 56 storeys, with a subtropical recreational podium, featuring two levels of premium offices and commercial facilities, and a fresh food and dining retail on the street level.

Design firm, DBI Architects, has curated a design referencing the coastal environment, moving away from smaller unit types to embrace the growing demand for larger apartments.

“V&amp;A Broadbeach presented a unique opportunity to create a lasting icon for the coastal precinct that can be appreciated by more than just its residents,” said DBI Director Raith Anderson.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=184933]

The lower floors will offer a mix of one, two and three-bedroom layouts while the upper residences will offer a mix of three-bedrooms, with both towers topped by sub‐penthouses and penthouses.

“Its design is quintessentially Gold Coast, from its lavish double beach shower and surfboards storages to its cascading subtropical landscaped terraces, V&amp;A is a rare product for those in pursuit of a coastal destination with the lifestyle and cultural variety of a cosmopolitan locale,” Anderson said.&nbsp;

Residents will live among world‐class amenities, with both towers offering an elevated recreational podium with a 25-metre lap pool, a gym, a yoga deck and resident’s lounge as well as kid’s area, a Zen garden, an outdoor dining and barbecue space, all surrounded by lush green landscaping.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=184934]

Both towers will feature spacious top floor owners-lounges complete with dining, yoga room, and office space, finished with high end, coastal furnishings.

Colliers’ Director Residential David Higgins said the project had been well received by the market and the council approval removed any impediments on the project.

“There is a great air of excitement about what V&amp;A will do to transform central Broadbeach,” said Higgins.

“The council has recognised the significance and merits of V&amp;A, and also acknowledged the incredible role that the project will play in the city’s cosmopolitan heart.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=184936]

“Unlike many of the projects that have been launched in recent years, V&amp;A will bring an air of sophistication to the cosmopolitan heart and provide apartments from which people can walk to everything they need,” he added.

V&amp;A Broadbeach would create the first high end residential, retail and culinary precinct in central Broadbeach since the Oracle towers more than a decade ago.

“Currently Broadbeach has plentiful luxury full-floor and half-floor three-bedroom-plus apartments on the market, but very few offer a choice of one, two and three-bedroom apartments with access to leading luxury amenity”, said Higgins.

“Historically Broadbeach has had a very strong family market and V&amp;A will bring this market right back into the frame. We’ve introduced a mix of product right in the heart of Broadbeach that attracts the family buyer, luxury downsizer and investors looking for solid returns as the Gold Coast grows out of the Covid lockdowns.”

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107928 project_image_fid=180734]

“The project scores a 10 out of 10 for walkability located in the heart of Broadbeach in walking distance to the light rail, the casino, convention centre, the restaurant precinct and the beach and will bring a new type of residential apartments to the market that we have not seen for some time,” he noted.

Iris Capital,&nbsp;founded and led by entrepreneur Sam Arnaout, has extended its reach over the past decade to become a developer of&nbsp;integrated residential and mixed-use developments.

The company now holds a $5 billion enterprise value, having significantly expanded its footprint over the past year through the acquisition of 17 Ibis hotels from AccorInvest.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109813 project_image_fid=196624]

&ldquo;Our sales team had 40 appointments booked on the first day of Oasis&rsquo; soft launch, 25 of which sold that very same day,&quot; Juniper said.

&quot;There&rsquo;s been a sense of urgency and we&rsquo;ve certainly had people vying to get a piece of the action.

&ldquo;Buyers are largely locals and those from wider South East Queensland who understand the beauty of this area and the rarity in stock like this, both in its very premium yet simplistic design and the incredible oceanfront vantage on Longboard Walk.

&ldquo;Quietly tucked between Caloundra and Mooloolaba, this location offers connection to the best of the suburb and beyond.&quot;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109813 project_image_fid=196622]

Positioned with uninterrupted ocean views on the last remaining beachfront location on Bokarina Beach, Oasis has two-bedroom apartments from $800,000 and three-bedroom apartments from $1 million.

The&nbsp;project also features two-level penthouses that boast secluded rooftop terraces and private plunge pools, starting from $3.2 million.

Juniper said they expected to be sold out within the week.

It comes at the same time that Cube has sold out its Nature by Cube project further up the road in Cotton Tree, with the 12 apartments selling for a combined value of $43 million, including its $7 million penthouse.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89721 project_image_fid=172105]

&ldquo;Nature is an extremely exclusive project given the handful of residences on offer, and is unique to the coast from an architectural and materiality standpoint,&quot; Juniper added.

&quot;The sheer amount of amenity and meticulous attention to detail in the design of each home is what sets it apart in the market.

&ldquo;We want to deliver something that hasn&rsquo;t been experienced before here on the Sunshine Coast, to offer an unparalleled lifestyle, and buyers responded well to this vision.

&ldquo;The strong desire for prestige property is palpable in this region, it&rsquo;s a matter of supply struggling to keep up with demand.&quot;

The national&nbsp;apartment development, Arden Property Group, is set for their next project.

They&#39;ve lodged plans for a mixed-use development at&nbsp;58-60 Crosby Road in Albion, in Brisbane&#39;s north-east.

Dubbed Euroa, the project has been designed by&nbsp;Altis Architecture and will comprise&nbsp;76 apartments, with a mix of one, two and three bedrooms.

&ldquo;The proposed mix of dwelling typologies and sizes with contribute to further diversification of housing stock in the local area and will support housing choice,&rdquo; the project consultant&nbsp;Urbis noted in their planning documentation.

The proposal has been designed to embody subtropical design principles, including taking advantageous of Brisbane&rsquo;s enviable climate, extensive provision of landscaping throughout the development, providing open spaces which encourages indoor-outdoor living, and striking an appropriate balance between solar access and protection.

Located on the corner of Crosby Road and Burdett Street, the Albion site amasses nearly 2,700 sqm, with the residences taking up 1,562 sqm of the site.

A welcoming, highly-landscaped entry with sub-tropical planting by Dunn + Moran Landscape Architects and a residential courtyard, addressing Burdett Street and the Crosby Road frontage.

Each residence is provided with a private open space, with the upper levels benefiting from balconies, and the ground level dwellings with courtyards, complimented by lush subtropical planting. Burdett Street facing apartments are angled toward city views, with the other apartments with views to the River and park.

Located just 8-kilometres from the CBD and only 15-minutes to the Brisbane Airport, Fable is placed to take advantage of both the immediate neighbourhood as well as the wider Brisbane City.

Previously&nbsp;the idea for the site was for high density apartments across four buildings, but&nbsp;Rogerscorp Director Simon Rogers said the new plans meet the evolving needs of the surrounding neighbourhood and ensures families have modern living options within the community that suit their lifestyle.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196538]

&ldquo;Everton Park is one of the suburbs in north-west Brisbane that has changed rapidly in recent years thanks to a variety of new amenity and &lsquo;city lifestyle&rsquo; offerings,&quot; Rogers said.

&ldquo;We wanted to challenge the ideals of residential living and introduce elements of resort style living.

&quot;We realised this offered more opportunity for the residents to do what they love and enjoy most.&quot;

From the surroundings, the development was designed almost as&nbsp;an enclosed city,<text data-test="textbox" direction="ltr" height="11.032958984375" lengthadjust="spacingAndGlyphs" textlength="317.213584899902" x="65.5268936157227" y="-652.341064453125"> to ensure resident privacy from the adjoining commercial precinct.</text>

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196534]

Designed by Z Architects, the material palette allows for these dwellings to be seen as a unified object from afar, yet upon closer inspection, the individualism of each dwelling stands out.

Similar to the site being surrounded by amenity, the masterplan surrounds a central park, the focal point of private amenity and congregation for the residents and its visitors. Residents will enjoy ultra-exclusivity with an array of resort-style facilities&nbsp;including recreation and relaxation amenities like a pool, sun lounges, herb and veggie garden, barbecue pavilion, pizza oven, and fire pits.

Precinct planning in the design was key to afford each concourse an identity dissimilar to that of another. This is done through a variance of unparalleled built forms, a strategy not often associated with townhouse developments. In doing so it creates an identity and a sense of belonging to each dwelling that is unique to its setting within the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196540]

&quot;As the modern way of living changes, the way we think about and design homes must also adapt. To us, this meant creating spaces that were inviting and nurturing, where self-care and wellbeing simply became part of everyday life.&rdquo;

&ldquo;Fable was curated to be a collection of ultra-modern, sustainable and bespoke masterpieces,&quot; Rogers added.
