Construction is now underway at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/cumulus-grand-villas-carrara-17-baltimore-court-carrara-qld-4211">Cumulus Grand Villas</a> in Carrara, with all stages fully funded as <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/venturecrowd-property-projects">VentureCrowd</a> progresses its 59-residence gated community on an elevated ridgeline overlooking 100 hectares of natural savanna.

The commencement marks a key milestone for the Gold Coast project, designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bda-architecture">BDA Architecture</a> and being delivered by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/devcon">Devcon Property Group</a>, at a time when buyers are placing greater emphasis on delivery certainty and builder track record.

With Devcon active in South East Queensland since 1993 and having delivered more than 1,000 homes, the team is positioning Cumulus as a fully financed, under-construction offering in a market where risk mitigation has become a central consideration for off-the-plan purchasers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360496]

Located at 17 Baltimore Court, Cumulus Grand Villas comprises 59 three- and four-bedroom villas across four collections, Skyline, Canopy, Savanna and Broadview. Pricing starts from $1,455,000, with completion of the first stage targeted for Q4 2026.

Across the four collections, each design represents an expansive and thoughtfully considered offering. The Broadview provides additional flexibility within its floorplan, incorporating a multipurpose room or optional additional bedroom, and is priced from $1,895,000.&nbsp;

Configured across two levels, the four-bedroom villas feature two master bedrooms with private ensuites, as well as a multipurpose room (MPR), supporting intergenerational living, guest accommodation, or the creation of a dedicated retreat space.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360497]

The main living areas are positioned on the ground floor, while the bedrooms are located upstairs, a configuration that promotes both family separation and connected living. All villas include a second master suite on the ground floor, reinforcing the project’s focus on flexibility and long-term adaptability.

That adaptability was central to BDA Architecture’s design approach. The team sought to create a sophisticated, low-maintenance product that makes the most of the site’s elevation and outlook while responding to evolving household needs. Expansive glazing, open-plan interiors and private outdoor areas draw in natural light and frame views towards the savanna, hinterland and Broadbeach skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360470]

VentureCrowd Director of Property David Whitting said the project responds to a growing group of buyers reassessing what premium living on the Gold Coast looks like.

Flexible floorplans have proven particularly relevant for purchasers aged between 40 and 65, including next home buyers, downsizers and investors. The inclusion of dual master suites in the Broadview design, along with options for a downstairs MPR or guest bedroom, allows homes to adapt as family dynamics shift, whether accommodating older parents, adult children, or extended stays.

Across the community, villas are specified with European appliances and premium fixtures and fittings, alongside double garages and landscaped private areas. The gated enclave includes number plate recognition entry, reinforcing a focus on security and exclusivity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135663 project_image_fid=360474]

Lifestyle amenity is anchored by the Infinity Terrace, an elevated communal space incorporating a 20m heated pool, alfresco zones and barbecue facilities, designed as a shared retreat within the neighbourhood. A two-acre private nature reserve with walking trails and rehabilitated bushland further integrates the development with its savanna-edge setting, reflecting a broader masterplan initiative to restore native vegetation and habitat corridors.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/carrara-qld-4211">Carrara</a>’s positioning continues to attract attention from prestige buyers seeking proximity to the coast without beachfront pricing. The suburb offers access to major retail centres including Pacific Fair and Robina Town Centre, is around 15 minutes from Broadbeach, and benefits from connectivity via the M1 to Brisbane and the Gold Coast Airport.

VentureCrowd’s Cumulus Grand Villas in Carrara advances with construction underway

Joint venture partners <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen">Abadeen</a> and <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/perifa">PERIFA</a> are officially launching the third and final residential stage at their landmark $350 million harbourfront precinct, Putney Wharf, with The Residences representing the final opportunity to secure a new home within this rare waterfront destination.

Strong demand has already been established across the earlier stages of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-residences-20-waterview-street-putney-nsw-2112">Putney Wharf</a>, with more than 50 per cent sold ahead of this final release. The Residences will introduce a selection of the precinct’s most premium apartments, many of which were deliberately reserved for this concluding stage.

Located at 20 Waterview Street, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/putney-nsw-2112">Putney</a> NSW, the completed precinct will comprise 67 residences, including 18 terraces and 49 apartments, alongside five retail tenancies and a 36-berth marina.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=1338]

Developed alongside partners Phoenix Property Investors and Mitsubishi Estate Asia, Putney Wharf occupies a prized 300-metre stretch of absolute waterfront and incorporates the historic former Halvorsen’s Boatshed. The precinct connects directly to surrounding parklands via a landscaped foreshore walkway and a large, landscaped podium linking both sides of the development to the adjoining foreshore parklands.

The Residences comprise two newly built, three-storey apartment buildings delivering a boutique collection of 30 generously proportioned waterfront apartments. Designed to capture harbour outlooks, natural light and cooling breezes, The Residences balance architectural refinement with relaxed, low-maintenance living.

Architecturally designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/sjb-architects">SJB</a>, the apartments continue the cohesive design language seen across the broader precinct. A refined palette of light and dark materials, softer-toned stone and neutral, earthy finishes reflect the surrounding landscape and harbour setting. Interiors feature painted timber veneers, tactile joinery, timber flooring to living spaces and 100 per cent natural wool carpets in bedrooms, creating warm and sophisticated homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=362525]

Justin Brown, Executive Chairman and Founder of Abadeen, said the release of the final residential stage marks an important milestone for the project.

“Putney Wharf brings together everything we’ve learned over more than 25 years of development,” Mr Brown said. “It respects the site’s extraordinary maritime history while delivering contemporary homes that connect people directly to the harbour.

The Residences offer the rare combination of low-maintenance apartment living, waterfront outlooks with beautiful sunset views, and the convenience of retail and amenity at your doorstep. For boating enthusiasts, the opportunity to secure a private marina berth completes a truly unique Sydney harbourfront lifestyle.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=291197]

PERIFA Managing Director and Co-Founder Fabrizio Perilli added that the diversity of housing across the precinct has been central to the project’s success.

“Whether it’s the heritage Halvorsen’s apartments, the Waterview Terraces or now The Residences, Putney Wharf offers a range of homes that respond to different lifestyles, all united by an unrivalled harbourfront setting,” Perilli said. “This is a precinct that will add lasting value to the Putney community.”

Managing project marketing and sales, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/srm-residential">SRM Residential</a> Partner Tim Rees said the final release has already attracted strong demand reflecting the project’s unique harbourfront position and the success of earlier stages.

“Following the strong response to both the Halvorsen’s Boatshed residences and the Waterview Terraces, The Residences represent the final chance to secure a new home within this tightly held waterfront precinct,” Rees said. “Buyers are drawn to the rare combination of absolute harbour frontage, parkside living and genuine architectural quality.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=362240]

Putney Wharf is a one-of-a-kind mixed-use destination, delivering an exclusive residential offering alongside waterfront dining, retail and a 36-berth marina designed to the latest Australian Standards, accommodating vessels up to 18 metres and helping address Sydney Harbour’s ongoing marina shortage.

The precinct will include five retail tenancies and a prominent waterfront jetty area fronting the retail village, creating an activated harbourfront destination for residents and visitors alike.

Residents will enjoy direct access to lush harbourfront parklands, a public foreshore walkway and landscaped podium gardens connecting the development to the surrounding waterfront reserve. Construction across the Putney Wharf precinct is expected to be completed by Q2 2027.

Sales of The Residences officially launch this weekend, with the display suite open Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 12pm at Putney Wharf. Visitors are invited to enjoy a complimentary coffee while touring The Residences and experiencing the Putney Wharf lifestyle firsthand.

Final Harbourfront release in Putney Wharf launches this weekend

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/draycon">Draycon Building</a> is nearing completion of Boutique Chevron Island, a 42-apartment development on the northern end of Chevron Island at 17–19 Parneno Street, with a limited-time offer of fully furnished apartments available.

Now more than 90 per cent complete, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/boutique-chevron-island-17-19-parneno-chevron-island-qld-4217">Boutique</a> has been shaped by one of the Gold Coast’s most tightly held island addresses, where riverfront outlooks and walkable access to Surfers Paradise converge.

For Draycon Building Managing Director Howard Dabit, the appeal of the site was immediate.

“I knew it was a good site as soon as I saw it,” Dabit said.

“The position and location on the north end of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/chevron-island-qld-4217">Chevron Island</a>, the way the river swirls around the site basically from the north to the east, it feels like the site is surrounded by the water. The height that we’ve got and the aspect looking north is beautiful. Eighty per cent of the apartments are looking north so they get that drenching sunlight coming in.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360922]

That northern orientation places the development within a stretch of Chevron Island defined by open river aspects and skyline views, while remaining embedded in the suburb’s established village setting.

Chevron Island has increasingly drawn owner-occupiers seeking centrality without the intensity of high-rise beachfront living. Positioned at the geographical centre of the Gold Coast, the island offers direct access to both the beach and key cultural infrastructure while retaining a neighbourhood-scale character.

Connected by bridge to Surfers Paradise, Chevron Island offers walkable access to beaches, riverfront parklands and a revitalised foreshore boulevard animated by walkers and cyclists throughout the day. The Pacific Ocean is only minutes away, reinforcing the suburb’s dual river-and-surf identity.

At the same time, Thomas Drive forms the spine of the island’s village life, delivering cafés, wine bars, casual dining and everyday services within easy reach. Independent grocers, wellness operators and neighbourhood retailers contribute to a community atmosphere that remains distinct from the vertical scale of the beachfront.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360915]

In the opposite direction, the Green Bridge links directly to HOTA – Home of the Arts – placing galleries, performance venues and parklands within walking distance. Weekly markets and major exhibitions draw visitors from across the region, while residents return to a quieter residential pocket at day’s end.

Public transport, including nearby bus routes and the G:link light rail corridor along the coastal spine, strengthens connectivity north and south. Griffith University, the Gold Coast University Hospital precinct and established private schools such as The Southport School are all within a short drive.

Ongoing investment across Surfers Paradise, HOTA and the broader Southport corridor has elevated amenity while preserving Chevron Island’s comparatively low-rise residential character. It is this balance, walkable village atmosphere paired with metropolitan-scale infrastructure, that continues to differentiate the suburb from higher-density beachfront precincts.

Boutique comprises just 42 residences, designed to maximise river and skyline outlooks within this tightly held island setting.

Boutique Chevron Island is slated for completion in April 2026, with prices starting from $1,220,000.

Sydney developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a> has secured planning approval for a $300 million residential development in Lindfield, marking the company’s second project on Sydney’s North Shore and its first on the Upper North Shore.

Located on Beaconsfield Parade and designed by DKO Architecture, the state significant development comprises three buildings of up to 10 storeys and will include 399 residences, including 59 affordable homes and 40 adaptable homes.

Residences will range in size from one, two and three bedrooms, with two-bedroom apartments accounting for over 60 per cent of the product make-up. Residents will have access to a broad suite of amenities, including a wellness area, indoor and outdoor recreational spaces, a pool, a gym, a community room and a golf simulator.

In line with Deicorp’s long-standing focus on creating transit-oriented communities, the project is located just 260 metres from the Lindfield Train Station, reinforcing its role in delivering well-connected housing close to established infrastructure, retail and local services.

The inclusion of affordable and adaptable housing supports greater diversity within the local market, while the mix of apartment types responds to demand from downsizers, young professionals and families seeking access to the Upper North Shore.

Deicorp Founder Fouad Deiri OAM said the approval represents an important milestone for both the company and the suburb

“This approval allows us to deliver well-designed homes in a location that is already supported by strong transport and community infrastructure," Deiri said.

"Our focus is on creating places that integrate into their surroundings and provide long-term value for residents, and the broader Lindfield community. Being within walking distance of the station ensures this project supports sustainable growth in the right locations."

Across its portfolio, Deicorp currently has 4,703 apartments under construction, playing a leading role in shaping connected, liveable communities across Sydney.

Its expanding portfolio of Metro-linked developments includes Tallawong Village, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kings-bay-village-five-dock-53-75-queens-road-five-dock-nsw-2046">Kings Bay Village</a> in Five Dock, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/hyde-metropolitan-sydney-133-141-liverpool-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Hyde Metropolitan</a> in Sydney CBD, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/falcon-alexander-crows-nest-8-alexander-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Falcon &amp; Alexander</a> in Crows Nest and Showground Village, Castle Hill.

Deicorp purchased the Beaconsfield Paradise site last year. Construction is scheduled to commence in Q2 of 2026 and will be completed in 2029.

With a pergola-shaded barbecue area, seating, and a meandering boardwalk, the landscaped spaces have been carefully planted with a mix of hardy, water-wise, low-maintenance native species, inspired by the surrounding bushland, while delicate flowering trees, such as jacarandas, add splashes of colour throughout.

In the past 12 months, Sydney’s North Shore has seen over $1 billion of sites sold as anticipated demand for apartments overtakes supply.
Developers have been focusing on high density opportunities in the Lower North Shore along the current North-West Sydney Metro station, which include suburbs such as North Sydney, Crows Nest, St Leonards, Chatswood and Macquarie Park.  
Major projects to be delivered include:
<ul>
<li>Mirvac - Nine's Willoughby site, 460 new dwellings</li>
<li>Podia – Recently purchased North Sydney Site - Planning proposal</li>
<li>Frasers – Masterplan approved Macquarie Park Ivanhoe Estate, 3,300 dwellings</li>
<li>Meriton – Macquarie Park up to 230 apartments</li>
<li>Aqualand, Develotek Partner for 600 apartments in Chatswood</li>
<li>Aqualand- North Sydney mixed-use development comprising 441 high-end apartments (under construction) </li>
</ul>
And now investors are scrambling for a piece of the action, with Roseville on the Upper North Shore smashing records this month, with 14 individual buyers snapping up 14 brand new luxury townhouses in just one weekend, with prices ranging from $2.5 million to $3.58 million with internal areas ranging from 122 – 173sqm internally. Interestingly the higher value townhouses in excess of $3m were the first to sell. 
Local developer Mayrin Group purchased the 6,778 square metre amalgamated site at 130-138 Archer Road and 10a, 12 and 14 Boundary Street in Roseville in 2017 from Savills Australia for north of $35 million.  
With an estimated end value in excess of $110 million, The Archwood Residences, designed by highly acclaimed architectural firm DKO is a limited collection of four bedroom townhouses with a stunning central garden retreat designed to include luxe lobbies, private lifts, marble bathrooms and natural stone kitchens.  
The homes feature fully integrated home automation systems, with the technological options including car licence plate recognition, biometric keyless entry and automated lighting and smart blinds. 
With only 20 townhouses released in Stage 1, 26 expressions of interest were received with a total of 14 lots sold on the day of the launch.
According to Stuart Cox, Director, Residential Site Sales at Savills Australia, Roseville remains one of the most hotly contested Upper North Shore suburbs, situated just 12 kilometres north-west of the Sydney CBD bound by Lindfield to the north, Castle Cove to the east, Chatswood to the south and Chatswood West to the west."
“Not only is this development of the highest calibre, it also boasts excellent access to public transport and is in the catchment area for Roseville Public School and Chatswood High School. Other private schools close by include Roseville College, Ravenswood School for Girls,  Pymble Ladies College, Knox Grammar School, Barker College and Abbotsleigh” he continued.

In a move reflective of a number of RSL decisions in recent years, the Roseville Memorial Club has chosen to development its premises at 62-66 Pacific Highway.

A development agreement between the club and Hyecorp Property Group was conceived during 2017, culminating in last week's lodgement of a development application for the dual fronted 1,375 square metre site. Working under the project name <a href="https://www.newrose.com.au/">New Rose</a>, a new ground floor 759 square metre RSL club would be incorporated under the plans devised by PBD Architects.

Identifying the need to refresh the club whilst also taking advantage of Ku-Ring-Gai's favourable planning controls, the development application seeks 33 apartments above a rejuvenated club space.

A mix of one, two and three bedroom apartments are proposed, as are 3 basement levels incorporating 51 spaces.

<figcaption>PBD Architects have designed Sydney's latest RSL redevelopment</figcaption></figure>At the time of agreement, Hyecorp Managing Director Stephen Abolakian provided the following statement on the redevelopment of the sixty year old venue:

<blockquote>
The building of new club premises is essential in ensuring the Club can continue to sustain itself for future generations to enjoy. We will be introducing new facilities and service offerings to accommodate a range of age groups and interests, creating a true community hub.

While an important goal of the redevelopment will be to attract younger members and visitors, we certainly recognise the need to preserve the traditions and attributes that have helped the Roseville Memorial Club become a much-loved community establishment.
</blockquote>

The redevelopment whilst maintaining a presence onsite is a palatable outcome in the eyes of many Sydney RSL clubs, given 31 of the institutions within New South Wales <a href="https://sourceable.net/property-development-imperils-sydney-rsl-clubs/">reportedly closed</a> during 2000-2010 timeframe.

<figcaption>Kogarah and Bondi RSL developments</figcaption></figure>A handful of Sydney RSL's are currently in major development mode, seeking more robush outcomes than that of Roseville's.

The Kogarah RSL site is well into construction with the final outcome to include 220 apartments and a 2,000 square metre home for the Club. Bondi RSL's is currently at planning with the intend of creating a $200 million project over 13 storeys containing 124 apartments.

Developer Capital Bluestone will partner with the Bondi branch as it did with kogarah's.

Other intended projects around Sydney include Petersham RSL's transformation into approximately 300 apartments and Merrylands RSL pursuing 401 apartments across multiple buildings at their <a href="/buildings/10-15-military-road-merrylands">Military Road</a> address.

<figcaption>Melbourne's Fairfield RSL site and failed Williamstown development</figcaption></figure>The trend has taken root in Melbourne, albeit on a lower scale.

Most notable is Grocon and Fairfield RSL's partnership which created a residential opportunity on the site of club land at 7 Railway Parade. A $50 million residential project containing 83 apartments dubbed Greenwich Fairfield is now under construction.

Williamstown's RSL has been sold off with intentions for an early learning centre, replacing earlier plans for an apartment development which also involved Grocon. The latter's intentions were scuppered due to heritage overlays.

Roseville reinforces the RSL development trend

The new chief of Bauer Media in Australia, Nick Chan and wife Peggy have sold their 1930's Roseville home.
More than $5 million was likely secured pre-auction by the couple who have owned the property for 16 years.
They paid $1.7 million in 1999 for the 2083 sqm holding. The family home has four bedrooms, a wine cellar, full sized tennis court and an in-ground pool.
The Mosman-bound Chan was made Bauer CEO earlier this month following his departure as chief operating officer from Seven West Media last year.
<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-nsw-roseville-122333470">The Clanville Road property</a> sold through Philip Waller of McGrath Linfield who had a price guide of between $5 million and $5.5 million.

Bauer boss Nick Chan sells in Roseville

The Chinese developers Longton Group and Chiwayland have joined forces to develop a $200 million apartment project in Sydney's Roseville.
Their 220-apartment project The Uptown will be built on 1.37-hectares at 1-31 Victoria Street, opposite Roseville College.
It is a two minute walk from Roseville Railway Station.
Longton is known for two futuristic developments at Mascot, Futra and Avantra, which have pioneered such technological breakthroughs as MyiButler and iCommunity. 
But Chiwayland is new to Australia, with both companies having a good relationship in China.
The Uptown will have six buildings in individual garden settings designed by architect Brent Marvin of MD+A.
“We’ve provided deep landscaped setbacks from the street and retained the concept of private gardens for each apartment,” said Mr Marvin. “As well as the large apartment balconies we’ve set aside resident-only areas for socialising.”
Apartment interiors by Archer + Wright will have stonework, broadloom carpet and wide-plank timber floorboards.
Each apartment comes with an iPad that can control the lighting, blinds, television and surround sound system. The iPad is also loaded with Longton’s patentedMyiButler app, a concierge system for ordering goods and services. 
Another feature of The Uptown will be Longton’s social media platform, iCommunity, which allows neighbourhood information and residents’ messages to be displayed on interactive, electronic noticeboards in the lobbies of each building.
The multi-stage development is releasing 61 apartments in May, comprising:
<ul>
<li>one-bedroom units (50sqm) from $698,000</li>
<li>one-bedroom units plus study (61-70sqm) from $785,000</li>
<li>two-bedrooms (70-85sqm) from $990,000 and</li>
<li>three-bedrooms (97-104sqm) from $1,290,000</li>
</ul>
All apartments have one or two security car spaces and lock-up storage rooms.
