Designed by global architecture practice <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a>, long-term collaborators of the Coronation team, the project draws inspiration from the Sydney Blue Gum High Forest and the leafy character of the South Chatswood Heritage Conservation Area.

Coronation receives green light for Archer & Albert apartments in Chatswood

Leading Sydney developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a>, in partnership with Metrics Credit Partners, has officially broken ground on its landmark $1.8 billion Kings Bay Village project in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/five-dock-nsw-2046">Five Dock</a>, marking the beginning of construction on one of the most significant urban renewal precincts within the Parramatta Road Corridor.

A sod-turning ceremony was held at the project site on Parramatta Road, with NSW Premier Chris Minns and NSW Planning Minister Paul Scully joining Deicorp Chairman Fouad Deiri OAM and Metrics CEO and Managing Partner Andrew Lockhart, to mark the significant milestone.

Located at 129-154 Parramatta Road, <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> will transform more than three hectares of underutilised land into a highly connected new neighbourhood comprising 1,185 homes, including 218 affordable dwellings for essential workers, alongside new retail, commercial, and community spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146120 project_image_fid=356895]

Designed by award-winning architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/turner-studio">TURNER</a>, the precinct blends crafted brick architecture with a pedestrian-focused urban layout across six buildings of varying scale. The project will deliver 14,700sqm of retail and commercial space, 6,500sqm of public open space, and a new 2,290sqm landscaped park and civic plaza that will form the social heart of the community.

Kings Bay Village is positioned minutes from the future Five Dock Metro Station, supporting the NSW Government and City of Canada Bay Council’s shared ambition for a more connected, liveable and revitalised Parramatta Road Corridor. Deicorp will also contribute more than $80 million towards new and upgraded local infrastructure, including pedestrian laneways, an activated streetscape and significant public domain works.

Fouad Deiri OAM, Chairman of Deicorp, said Kings Bay Village represents a defining opportunity for Sydney’s Inner West.

&nbsp;“Today marks the beginning of a precinct that will deliver lasting benefits for the Five Dock community - new homes, new open spaces, and a vibrant mixed-use environment that brings people closer to transport, services and amenities,"&nbsp;Deiri says.

“We are proud to be delivering much-needed housing, including affordable homes for essential workers, in partnership with the NSW Government and the City of Canada Bay. Kings Bay Village is urban renewal at its best - thoughtful, connected and community-focused.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146120 project_image_fid=356894]

Metrics CEO and Managing Partner Andrew Lockhart said the company is proud to support more housing and infrastructure in a key Sydney corridor. 
&nbsp; 
“Metrics and Deicorp share a proven track record of delivering high-impact projects that align closely with the NSW Government’s housing and infrastructure priorities. Kings Bay Village marks our most significant Sydney development to date, offering quality homes, essential infrastructure, and dynamic public spaces.” 
&nbsp; 
“This project reflects our ongoing commitment to creating value by supporting economic growth, job creation, and delivering excellent outcomes for our investors,” he said.

With Kings Bay Village now underway, Deicorp’s pipeline of apartments under construction across Sydney has increased to 5,102. Kings Bay Village is scheduled for completion in Q2 of 2029.

When Antoinette Chan and her architect husband, Peter began casually searching for an investment property, they weren’t expecting it to evolve into a life-changing family decision.

But one visit to the display suite of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen-group">Abadeen</a>’s <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/koyo-crows-nest-1-11-rodborough-avenue-crows-nest-nsw-2065">KOYO</a> development in Crows Nest changed everything, and sparked a remarkable story of three generations choosing to live side by side in one of the suburb's most architecturally-striking new developments.

Antoinette, her mother Janet Khoo, and her sister, who is currently living in Singapore, each purchased an apartment in the same building, creating a rare and meaningful multi-generational living arrangement underpinned by modern design, community values, and premium convenience.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356083]

“It wasn’t planned,” says Antoinette, who purchased a three-bedroom garden apartment with her husband and teenage daughter. “Peter came across KOYO and encouraged me to visit because he had a lot of respect for Abadeen’s previous work. As soon as we saw it, we knew it wasn’t just an investment, this was a home.”

Shortly after, Antoinette suggested her mother, Janet Khoo, take a look at the same development. A long-time inner-city resident who had recently sold her property in The Rocks, Janet had experienced some health setbacks and was contemplating a move closer to her daughter.

“I walked into the display apartment, and it just felt right,” says Janet. “I didn’t look anywhere else. The space, the simplicity of the design, the light, everything gave me a sense of peace. It’s a new beginning, but it also feels like home.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356093]

In a stroke of serendipity, Janet selected the two-bedroom apartment next door to her daughter, completely unaware of Antoinette’s purchase. Around the same time, Antoinette’s sister, who resides in Singapore, viewed the property via a virtual tour and chose to buy the apartment directly above Janet’s.

“We were all drawn to KOYO individually, and it just happened that our homes ended up vertically stacked, ground, first, and second floor,” Antoinette laughs. “It was a coincidence, but also a sign. This is where we’re meant to be.”

Designed by celebrated architect <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/koichi-takada-architects">Koichi Takada</a>, KOYO delivered on all fronts for the Chan-Khoo family.

“Our garden apartment gives us the feel of a standalone home but with none of the maintenance,” says Antoinette. “All three bedrooms open onto a generous private garden, which is perfect for our dog Archie, and for entertaining. The open-plan layout and high ceilings make it feel airy, calm and luxurious.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356092]

For Janet, security and accessibility were top priorities, and KOYO offered the ideal balance.

“At my age, I didn’t want to be climbing stairs,” she explains. “The first-floor apartment opens directly to the garden, and the building is small, which gives it a more personal, village-like feel. Yet I’m just steps away from my daughter and granddaughter. That gives me so much peace of mind.”

The family also appreciated the thoughtful amenities that avoided the excesses of some larger developments.

“We didn’t want a complex with too many facilities we wouldn’t use,” explains Antoinette. “KOYO has everything we need, generous storage, secure parking, beautifully landscaped walkways, and a stunning rooftop terrace with BBQ facilities that feels serene rather than busy.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=355428]

The location was another critical factor in the family’s decision. Though they had always lived closer to Sydney’s eastern suburbs, Antoinette says the transformation of Crows Nest was a revelation.

“When we returned from living overseas, we discovered Crows Nest had become this vibrant, walkable hub,” she says. “We love being able to stroll to cafés, restaurants, and shops on Willoughby Road. The new Metro makes the commute into the CBD effortless, and our daughter can walk to her school, it’s just next door."

Janet agree. “I was worried about giving up my inner-city lifestyle, but I’ve fallen in love with this area. It has everything I need, supermarkets, quiet streets, friendly faces, and it’s all a short walk away. I feel safe, independent, and connected.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108800 project_image_fid=356085]

While design and location were important, the family also credits their decision to Abadeen’s reputation and responsiveness. With decades of experience delivering high-quality residential projects, Abadeen’s track record helped build trust during a volatile market period.

“The waiting game was tough, especially after selling my old apartment,” says Janet. “But the Abadeen team kept me updated every step of the way. They were professional, courteous, and transparent.”

Antoinette said Peter works in property and had already heard of Abadeen. "The quality of their work really impressed us, and as the project neared completion, they went above and beyond to keep us informed and supported. That level of communication is rare.”

Only a handful of three-bedroom residences remain for sale, priced from $3.5 million.

Sydney-based developer Gold Partners Australia is making its move on the Gold Coast, launching what is one of the most affordable towers to the booming Broadbeach market.

Its <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/harmony-on-broadbeach-2797-gold-coast-highway-broadbeach-qld-4218">Harmony on Broadbeach</a> project, just 400m from the beach, has prices starting from $975,000 for its two-bedroom apartments that measure nearly 90 sqm internally.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113098 project_image_fid=355607]

There will be 113 two- and three-bedroom apartments spread out across the 33-storey tower on the 1,201 sqm site that will front First Avenue. Gold Partners Australia, which has delivered several major projects in Sydney's Norwest and has an active pipeline with projects in Hornsby and Carlingford, secured the block vacant, and want to start preliminary site works early next year through their in-house construction capability.

DBI Architects designed the tower with a four-level podium which will have an open-air swimming pool, sun deck, outdoor lounges, alfresco dining spaces, and a gym with adjoining yoga lawn. A hospitality venue will anchor the building at street level.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113098 project_image_fid=355611]

Olympus Property Group is selling Harmony on Broadbeach on behalf of Gold Partners Australia. Olympus Director Deanna Lockett says the project is resonating with everyone from locals, investors, those moving from interstate, and second home buyers from Brisbane.

"There's been nothing new come to the market in Broadbeach at this price point for nearly a year," Lockett recalls. "It hits the sweet spot of affordability, good sized apartments, in a great location."

Construction will commence in Q2 2026, and wrap up, all going well, by the end of 2028.

Display apartments play a crucial role in helping buyers imagine how a space will look and feel once complete.

At <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-albertine-by-mirvac-melbourne-31-queens-lane-melbourne-vic-3004">The Albertine</a> in Melbourne, development giant Mirvac has partnered with furniture maker and retailer MCM House to create a fully furnished, full-scale prototype that showcases the proportions, finishes, and design intent of the project’s three-bedroom residences.

As an added incentive, purchasers of any two- or three-bedroom apartment can receive up to $50,000 worth of MCM House furniture, allowing them to curate their new home with the same craftsmanship, contemporary design, and aesthetic showcased in the display apartment.

<a data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ae2e947b-2d51-4288-88fa-a35638e3be0f" href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-albertine-by-mirvac-melbourne-31-queens-lane-melbourne-vic-3004"><img alt="Albertine" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-11-25%20at%209.27.26%E2%80%AFAM_1.png?VersionId=T5uSwgtTFwd1m5EdQF1inB.tBDgxqbtZ" /></a>

Oversized sofas, solid timber dining tables, and relaxed, low-profile seating demonstrate how the space accommodates real furniture, helping buyers clearly visualise how their new apartment could look, complete with pieces that genuinely suit the scale and design of the home.

The styling is simple but deliberate, with materials that pick up on the apartment’s natural light and neutral tones, creating cohesion without crowding the space.

Mirvac is now welcoming buyers through the display at The Albertine. Quietly yet conveniently positioned just off St Kilda Road on Queens Road, the development has attracted strong interest from inner-Melbourne and Bayside downsizers, professional couples seeking luxurious low-maintenance living, and design-focused buyers who want proximity to the CBD.

Apartments have been designed by Mirvac's inhouse design team with owner-occupiers at the forefront.&nbsp;The living and dining areas open directly onto a balcony, reinforcing the project’s emphasis on indoor-outdoor flow, while kitchens feature integrated appliances and soft-curve cabinetry which mirror the larger architectural themes at play throughout the building.

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.

The Archwood in Roseville is the North Shore's latest residential development

<html><body>
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.
