<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/broadbeach-qld-4218">Broadbeach</a> offers plenty of reasons to live vertically, but moving from a substantial family home into an apartment can expose the compromises of high-density living. Privacy, room for guests and usable living space tend to matter more when an apartment is intended as a permanent home rather than an occasional coastal base.

A typical residential floor at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-eveleigh-broadbeach-7-9-surf-parade-broadbeach-qld-4218">The Eveleigh</a>, on Surf Parade,&nbsp;contains just four apartments. The 94-residence development by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/hirsch-faigen">Hirsch &amp; Faigen</a> is predominantly made up of expansive three-bedroom homes, with a limited collection of half-floor penthouses above.

Across the apartment floors, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> has used the relatively limited number of residences to give each home greater access to natural light and outlook. Living spaces extend towards full-height glazing, while a series of bay windows frame selected views across the Pacific Ocean, city and hinterland rather than treating the building edge as a continuous wall of glass.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360965]

“The apartment floors deliver a collection of homes that embrace controlled outlook via a series of bay windows deliberately framing moments of view,” Rothelowman Director Kim Lowman said.

From outside, those projecting forms contribute to the tower’s faceted profile. Strong horizontal and vertical elements establish its proportions, while the changing position of the sun alters the light, shadow and reflection across the façade throughout the day.

The same attention moves inside the apartments, where the material palette combines warm timber, natural stone, metallic detailing and softer curved forms. Kitchens sit within the main living zone, with stone island benches, integrated joinery and European appliances, before the living areas extend towards the glazing and the outlook.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360981]

Three genuine bedrooms provide room to accommodate family and guests, while two secure car spaces and storage address some of the practical considerations that can become more noticeable when moving from a larger home. Feedback from the display suite has centred on the warmth and restraint of the interiors, with buyers commenting that the residences feel like homes rather than conventional coastal apartments.

A limited collection of half-floor penthouses occupies the upper levels, increasing the scale of the living spaces and adding private balconies and elevated finishes. From this position, the outlook extends between the ocean and hinterland.

Outside the private residences, The Eveleigh separates its shared spaces between the podium and rooftop. The podium is centred on wellness, with subtropical landscaping surrounding a swimming pool and pool terrace, yoga garden, private gymnasium, sauna and hot and cold plunge facilities. Landscaped retreats and pavilions provide additional places to sit away from the main recreation areas.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360966]

Higher in the building, a rooftop pavilion and private dining suite sit alongside resident lounge, barbecue and outdoor dining areas, opening towards panoramic views across the ocean, city and hinterland.

“Buyers are no longer just looking for an apartment, but a lifestyle where they can relax, reset, and enjoy a balanced way of living,” Hirsch &amp; Faigen Director of Sales Matt George said.

Interest to date has come from established owner-occupiers and interstate lifestyle purchasers, including buyers planning a future move to the Gold Coast. Many are coming from larger homes and want to reduce ongoing maintenance without giving up space for family and guests, privacy, two car spaces or the ability to entertain at home.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360969]

Much of that daily life can also take place beyond the building without requiring a drive. Kurrawa Beach and Pratten Park are an easy walk from Surf Parade, while Pacific Fair, Oracle Boulevard, The Oasis, restaurants, cafés, entertainment and public transport are also within walking distance.

The Eveleigh is Hirsch &amp; Faigen's fourth Gold Coast development since entering the market in 2021, following The Hemingway at Palm Beach, The Emerson at Kirra and Yves at Mermaid Beach. Each of the preceding projects sold out before completion.

“Broadbeach had been on our radar throughout our time operating on the Gold Coast,” the developer said. “Following our projects in Palm Beach, Kirra and Mermaid Beach, Broadbeach represented the natural next step for the business.”

The Surf Parade site brought together proximity to the beach, protected coastal outlooks and walkability to dining, shopping and recreation. Hirsch &amp; Faigen also identified the street as an emerging premium residential address, with enough separation from Broadbeach's busier destinations to retain a quieter environment at home.

The Eveleigh is now under construction by Maxcon, with completion forecast for mid-2028. Three-bedroom residences are currently available from $2.87 million.

The Eveleigh brings house-like apartments to Broadbeach

A long-stalled Campbelltown development site is back in play, with new plans for 139 apartments set to supersede a mixed-use scheme approved almost a decade ago but never built.

The new proposal for 28 Cordeaux Street would deliver 116 market and 23 affordable apartments in a part 14-storey building, bringing a substantial new project into a Campbelltown market where new apartment supply remains limited.

Plans have been filed over the 3,092 sqm corner site at Moore-Oxley Street, around 600 metres from Campbelltown Railway Station and the city-centre retail core.

The site already carries a mixed-use residential approval dating to 2016. Doroch Architects has now been engaged on a larger replacement scheme, which is progressing as a State Significant Development Application following a Housing Delivery Authority determination in August 2025.

The apartment mix comprises 39 one-bedroom, 72 two-bedroom and 28 three-bedroom residences. Two-bedroom apartments make up just over half of the project, while three-bedroom homes account for 20 per cent.

<img alt="First look: New 139-apartment plans revive long-stalled Campbelltown city centre site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="136dd5b9-3791-4da6-9e31-76f533f5b4de" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Campbelltown%20da2.png?VersionId=LgOSy9nwf5u.MGswBBwaGGxuX8QpHSl_" />

Of the 139 apartments, 23 will be delivered as affordable housing under the in-fill affordable housing provisions of the Housing SEPP. The affordable component represents 15 per cent of the residential gross floor area and will be managed by a registered Community Housing Provider.

Doroch has sought to break the scale of the building into two distinct elements, with a masonry podium of around four storeys establishing the street edge before the residential tower steps back above.

The corner position has shaped that approach. Cordeaux Street faces toward the commercial and civic centre, while Moore-Oxley Street leads into the lower-scale residential neighbourhood to the south, and the design verification report describes the site as "bridging the commercial core to the north and established residential areas to the south."

The podium will be expressed predominantly in face brick, while the upper levels shift to brushed and grooved concrete cladding with darker metal detailing. Recessed sections, deep balcony edges and landscaping break down the upper form, with an approximately 11.8-metre setback to the northern boundary addressing the adjoining St Peters Anglican School.

Campbelltown has been starved of new residential developments in the last decade.

The only other notable development set to come to market this year is ALAND's Queen Square, a mixed-use precinct on over two hectares that will comprise apartments above a vibrant ground-level retail and hospitality dining precinct.

First Look: Sherlock Construction pitches apartments for low-rise Deception Bay

Queensland builder-developer MAYD has revealed the first look at its major North Kirra beachfront development, lodging amended plans that reduce the number of apartments and increase the proportion of larger residences.

The project is planned across a substantial 4,742 sqm amalgamated site spanning seven lots at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/2-6-pacific-parade-bilinga-qld-4225">2-6 Pacific Parade</a> and 27-33 Golden Four Drive in Bilin​ga, directly opposite Nor​th Kirra Beach.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mayd-group">MAYD</a> secured the site for $32.5 million in 2025, in what was one of the Gold Coast's largest property transactions of the year.

The development will be delivered across two stages, with the first stage carrying an estimated gross realisation value of around $360 million.

The latest amendments seek to reduce the overall apartment count and shift the project further toward the owner-occupier market, with larger residences designed for buyers wanting considerably more space than traditionally offered in a beachfront apartment.

The residential mix will include townhomes, oversized two-bedroom apartments, substantial three-bedroom residences and four-bedroom homes.

MAYD has appointed Cera Stribley to lead the architecture and interiors, with the Melbourne-based design practice drawing on the beachfront setting through a series of ocean-facing terraces and heavily landscaped balconies.

Strong horizontal forms and curved balconies will define the exterior, with subtropical landscaping integrated throughout the building to soften the built form and increase the connection between the residences and the beachfront.

The project will also include an extensive collection of resident wellness and lifestyle facilities, continuing the broader shift across the Gold Coast's luxury apartment market toward larger homes supported by resort-style amenity.

<img alt="MAYD" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d1bcbb05-e659-4b47-8bd4-1e595315e2ad" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-27%20at%202.05.03%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=jj0XEud1X1DuLt7_KyElhjMdZGOXmLHP" />

MAYD Founder Todd Mould said North Kirra was increasingly appealing to buyers attracted to the more established, lower-density character of the southern Gold Coast.

"North Kirra presents one of the most compelling luxury residential opportunities currently emerging in Australia, combining absolute beachfront with the character and authenticity that buyers are increasingly seeking, and the same sense of tight-knit community that defined Burleigh and Currumbin perhaps 10 or 15 years ago," Mould said.

"With Gold Coast Airport on its doorstep, it also offers a level of accessibility that broadens its appeal across almost every market demographic."

The project comes as the southern Gold Coast continues to attract an increasing share of high-end apartment development and buyer activity.

Kirra in particular has emerged as one of the region's more tightly held beachfront markets, with its relatively low-density character, established surf and hospitality scene and proximity to Gold Coast Airport differentiating it from the higher-density markets further north.

Mould said those characteristics had informed the approach MAYD and Cera Stribley had taken to the project.

"We've worked closely with Cera Stribley to create a vision that is deeply connected to its surroundings," he said.

"Inspired by the coastline itself, the architecture has been shaped around space, privacy and resort-style living, creating a collection of homes that reflects the next generation of luxury on the southern Gold Coast."

MOTIV Managing Director Carly Cottam, who has been appointed to market the project, said buyer attention had continued to move south along the Gold Coast.

"Purchasers who may once have defaulted to Broadbeach, Main Beach or Surfers Paradise are increasingly recognising the value of a genuine beachfront location that offers lower density, strong amenity and a more established sense of community," Cottam said.

"Kirra has a powerful combination of growing demand and genuine scarcity. Beachfront supply is inherently constrained, the area remains relatively low density, and buyers are increasingly placing a premium on locations that feel established, uncrowded and authentic rather than heavily developed."

Cottam said the proximity to Gold Coast Airport was also proving increasingly important for interstate and second-home buyers.

"Being minutes from Gold Coast Airport makes it particularly compelling for interstate buyers, frequent travellers and second-home purchasers who can access an authentic coastal lifestyle almost immediately after stepping off a flight."

The acquisition takes MAYD's active development portfolio to more than $500 million, with the North Kirra project representing one of its largest undertakings to date.

MAYD is targeting an early 2027 launch.

First look at MAYD's North Kirra mixed-use precinct

<main data-perf-region="main">
Castle Hill, the longtime hub of the Hills District, has been one of the major beneficiaries of Sydney's Metro expansion, with improved connectivity helping drive continued population growth, development and buyer demand across the Hills District.

But despite that growth, the suburb has seen relatively few major new apartment projects brought to market over the past 18 months.

Hills District developer Reve Group is looking to fill that gap with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/nova-r-ve-castle-hill-2-garthowen-crescent-castle-hill-nsw-2154">Nova Rêve</a>, a major new mixed-use precinct on the corner of Garthowen Crescent and Old Castle Hill Road, a short walk from Castle Hill Metro Station and Castle Towers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377679]

The project will comprise three residential towers alongside a hotel, restaurants, cafes and a skybar, more than 1,600 sqm of ground-floor retail and almost an acre of landscaped gardens.

It represents the largest project undertaken by Reve Group, the development arm of the Kassis family, which has been building across the Hills District for more than 30 years through Kassis Homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377675]

Nova Rêve also represents a significant step up from the family's first apartment development, Grand Rêve, which was delivered nearby on Garthowen Crescent.

Grand Rêve introduced larger, house-like apartment layouts and premium inclusions including Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances to the Castle Hill market.

Nova Rêve takes that approach to a precinct scale, combining the residential component with hospitality, retail and substantial public and resident landscaping.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377685]

Reve Group Managing Director Sam Kassis said the project reflected the family's three decades of building in the Hills, which has evolved from trophy homes on quarter-acre blocks to larger-scale apartment development.

"Grand Rêve was our first apartment project here and it showed us what this pocket of Castle Hill could be. Nova Rêve is the refinement of that idea: not just apartments, but a place the whole suburb can use," Kassis said.

A key part of that approach is the hotel, which has been designed to operate as an amenity for the wider Castle Hill community rather than solely hotel guests.

It will include restaurants, cafes, skybars and all-day dining, alongside conference and event facilities catering to business functions, community groups and private events.

At ground level, more than 1,600 sqm of shops and cafes will open onto the surrounding streets and landscaped areas.

Almost an acre of gardens designed by Land and Form Studios will run through the precinct, incorporating pathways, seating, barbecue areas and children's play spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377680]

Reve Group's Romio Georges said creating an active ground plane had been central to the planning of Nova Rêve.

"There are gardens with pathways, barbecues, seating and play areas, shops and cafes opening onto the street, and a hotel with restaurants and a skybar that anyone in Castle Hill can walk into," Georges said.

The project's elevated position on one of Sydney's highest ridgelines will also provide apartments with outlooks toward the Sydney skyline, surrounding parkland and the Blue Mountains.

More than 80 per cent of the apartments will occupy corner positions, with Turner responsible for both the architecture and interiors.

Fresh off the back of two UDIA QLD Awards, the South East Queenslander developer Mosaic has secured yet another sell-out, before the project even hit the open market.

Their second Maroochydore&nbsp;development, LOrient, part of Mosaic&#39;s&nbsp;Masterpeice Series developments,&nbsp;lasted just a few weeks before selling, with prices starting from $2.75 million.

LOrient, named after the French port famous for its maritime history,&nbsp;netted the Sunshine Coast&#39;s most expensive apartment sale, with a 571 sqm apartment selling for $7.5 million.

It bettered the existing $6 million record,&nbsp;set at Avalon by Mosaic a few doors down. Avalon by Mosaic&nbsp;just won&nbsp;the&nbsp;High Density &ndash; 10 storeys or less award at UDIA QLD awards.

&quot;We are humbled by how receptive the market has been to our developments, which has resulted in our projects selling out in record time,&quot; Mosaic Property boss Brook Monahan told Urban.

<img alt="" height="521" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/lorient.jpg" width="1200" />

&quot;We are working hard to bring launches forward to meet the robust ongoing demand for Mosaic product&nbsp;in highly sort after locations.&quot;

Mosaic had to drop the number of apartments in the eight-level building from 21 to 15, due to the interest in making the apartments even bigger than what was offered.

The boutique development, set on the Maroochy River at 90&nbsp;Duporth Avenue, had been set for 21 three-bedroom apartments. Now there will be just 12 three-bedders, two four-bedroom apartments, and one massive five-bedroom apartment.

<img alt="" height="800" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/lorient_mosaic.jpg" width="1200" />

Level one will home the&nbsp;resident amenity, which includes a 60 sqm gym, a lap pool with spa, lounges, and a cabana.

Construction is now expected early next year, well ahead of schedule, due to the speed of the sales.

LOrient is the first apartment project on the Sunshine Coast designed by&nbsp;bureau^proberts.

&quot;The site at 90 Duporth Avenue connects an established avenue of apartments to the water&rsquo;s edge of the Maroochy River,&quot; the design statement by&nbsp;bureau^proberts read.

&quot;The architecture responds with sensitivity to its site, both natural and man-made, with apartments rising to eight&nbsp;storeys to contribute a scale that is consistent with its neighbourhood.&quot;

<img alt="" height="600" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/lorient_mosaic_kitchen.jpg" width="1200" />

There will be continued interest in the area from Mosaic heading in to 2022.

&quot;We remain very passionate about the Sunshine Coast which is undergoing such a dynamic evolution,&quot; Monahan said.

&quot;We are proud to have created a benchmark offerings, including Drift, Avalon, and now Lorient, amongst others, and look forward to continuing to lead the way for high-quality multi-residential development in the region.&quot;

Mosaic recently took out two awards at the UDIA QLD awards, both for its previous Sunshine Coast developments.

Drift by Mosaic, Coolum Beach&rsquo;s first new apartment development in 13 years, won the&nbsp;Medium Density Development award. Mosaic engaged extensively with the local community to deliver a responsive design, taking advantage of the sloping 4,161 sqm site.

The $104 million, Avalon by Mosaic apartment project, built on a historic pocket of land on the Maroochy River, won the&nbsp;High Density &ndash; 10 storeys or less award.

The prominent Sunshine Coast developer Cube Developments has snapped up the last remaining beachfront site on the Sunshine Coast.

The 3,215 sqm block at Bokarina Beach, located between Calounda and Mooloolaba and adjacent to Bokarina Beach, is earmarked for a six level apartment building of up to 75 apartments.

Cube director Scott Juniper says they will be planning something more boutique, offering a point of difference to the other developments in the masterplan.

&quot;Three of the five sites nearby are under construction and are quite large scale, large built form projects, some with over 100 units,&quot; Juniper says, adding that those developments will have ground floor activiation.

Juniper says they are going the other way.

<img alt="" height="622" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/cube_location_2.jpg" width="1200" />

&quot;The market has evolved very quickly&quot;, Juniper said.

&quot;We&#39;re looking to go boutique, with larger format units, and really build to the strength of what&nbsp;Bokarina has become.

&quot;We won&#39;t be having retail at the ground floor. We are designing the area to create an exclusive compound for residents. They will feel special when they enter the building.&quot;

On entry there will be an architectural threshold walk through with draping landscape. Private dining spaces and a gym will feature, and Juniper says they are planning something special with landscaping around the swimming pool.

They&#39;re currently in redesign, having appointed local architect Cameron Sheedy to design the building.

&quot;We really know what we want. The brief is very detailed and that we want it to be boutique, and we felt Cameron was the best person to create our vision.&quot;

The Bokarina project will join Cube&rsquo;s growing Sunshine Coast portfolio, which includes three other residential apartments in neighbouring suburb Birtinya.

This includes the sell-out $27 million project One Prosperity, which is under construction and slated for completion at the end of this year; Curve, a sell-out $37 million project, which is due for completion next month and the recently launched to market &lsquo;Seasons by Cube&rsquo;.

The longstanding Sunshine Coast developer&nbsp;Henzell Property Group&nbsp;is set to create a mixed-use development in Caloundra, which they say will be one of the most exciting launches the Sunshine Coast will see in 2021.

Henzell, who have been reshaping the Sunshine Coast over the last four decades, have acquired the Suncourt Motel,&nbsp;set on a prized, mostly vacant,&nbsp;6,175 sqm site at the entry to Caloundra.

Henzell will develop&nbsp;high-end retail and dining at street level, with modern apartments dedicated to owner-occupiers above.

The&nbsp;135 Bulcock Street site, also with a street frontage to Omrah Avenue, was a unique opportunity to create a new entry statement for central Caloundra, Henzell Property Group sales director Marcus Muir says.

&ldquo;We have had our eye on this property for some time, so what we have planned has been carefully considered,&quot; Muir says.

&quot;We feel this site, with the correct product mix, will be one of the most exciting launches that the Sunshine Coast will see in 2021.

&ldquo;This development will combine luxurious residences offering exceptional views within an entertainment precinct that will attract high end lifestyle operators locally and from across Queensland.

&ldquo;We have already commenced discussions with a number of dining and retail operators and there are many more who have yet to move to the Coast as they have been waiting for the perfect location.&rdquo;&nbsp;

<img alt="" height="800" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/marcus_muir_and_mclean_henzell_smaller.jpg" width="1200" /> 
Marcus Muir, left, with Henzell&nbsp;director McLean Henzell. Image supplied

Henzell Property Group plans to deliver the project in two stages, with the design taking advantage of the two-street frontage by creating an activated laneway for vehicle and pedestrian access between Bulcock Street and Omrah Avenue providing a new sidewalk boulevard restaurant precinct.

&ldquo;This will become an iconic Sunshine Coast location for residents and visitors alike providing a new streetscape that connects Bicentennial Park, north of Omrah Avenue, and south to the beachfront,&rdquo; Muir said.

&ldquo;The location offers everything that residents could want in a Sunshine Coast lifestyle with an easy stroll to some of Caloundra&rsquo;s best beaches and shopping with Bulcock Street right at your doorstep.

&ldquo;When combined with luxurious apartments offering generous floor plans and either northern orientation or sprawling ocean views, this is exactly what the market is looking for in a coastal residence.&rdquo;

The first stage of the development will comprise a boutique collection of 39 apartments over 10 levels that will boast some of the best view&rsquo;s that Caloundra has to offer.

Preliminary works have already begun at this stage ahead of Henzell Property Group releasing apartments to the market.

&ldquo;We have chosen to release the most boutique offering to the market first to cater for exceptional demand for luxury residences by owner-occupiers,&rdquo; Muir said.

&ldquo;Stage one will comprise a collection of two and three-bedroom residences along with a penthouse collection, resort style pool and tranquil pool side areas.&rdquo;

Henzell Property Group has been buoyed by the success of its latest development at Pelican Waters, with a sell-out of an exclusive release of luxury residences in the first stage of the $200 million precinct known as The Cove.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27849 project_image_fid=151643]

All 15 homes in the Terrace Collection were snapped up for a total of $12 million, highlighting the appeal of high-end residences among-end users on the Sunshine Coast.

&ldquo;Buyers in this segment of the market are typically looking for a relaxed lifestyle close to the water and within easy reach of retail, dining and entertainment facilities,&rdquo; Muir added.

&ldquo;With this iconic new development, we are planning to add a new level of sophistication to the natural appeal that attracts so many people to the Caloundra lifestyle.&rdquo;

The Sunshine Coast developer Henzell Property Group has sold-out its collection of terraces in its first stage of The Cove, their $200 million masterplanned community at Pelican Waters

The boutique release of just 15 townhomes and penthouse terraces, dubbed the Terrace Collection, were bought&nbsp;by owner-occupiers, predominantly those who live&nbsp;locally.

The five penthouse terraces were snapped up within a week of their release.

They are part of The Cove&#39;s first stage, Corsica Residences, which comprises 51 residences all up. There&#39;s been 39 sales so far.

Sales have been so quick Henzell have brought forward construction, which could start this month.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27849 project_image_fid=151643]

Marcus Muir, sales and marketing director at Henzell, said a number of the buyers were attracted by the premium lifestyle on offer for residents in&nbsp;The Cove.&nbsp;

&ldquo;There&rsquo;s been a strong local owner occupier trend, with 80% of buyers from Pelican Waters, and all of them have been drawn by the quality of the residences and the level of exclusive resident amenities that would be right at home in a world-class resort.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;re experiencing exceptional demand across the entire Corsica Residences release which has set a remarkable early pace for our staged program to deliver The Cove&rsquo;s master plan over the next few years.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27849 project_image_fid=151642]

The Cove will home a number of luxury, resort-inspired amenities including an outdoor lagoon style pool with a swim up bar, set within a tropical landscape and reserved for the exclusive use of residents.

The Cove is the final instalment in the Pelican Waters community which the Henzell family has been developing for more than 30 years.

The master-planned community will be delivered in four stages over the next four years and when completed it will comprise a total of 220 apartments and terrace homes, a grocer and waterfront restaurant.

The five penthouse terraces were snapped up within a week of their release.

Demand for apartments&nbsp;is not letting up on the Sunshine Coast.

Cube Developments, led by veteran developer Scott Juniper, have secured a sell out of their $27 million apartment&nbsp;project One Prosperity in the small waterfront suburb of Birtinya, and are soon to sell all of the apartments in their boutique Mooloolaba project Picasso.

Picasso saw high demand from investors from Sydney and Melbourne, and Juniper says the trend, which he&#39;s seen across the whole of the portfolio,&nbsp;isn&#39;t slowing down.

&quot;The demand on the Sunshine Coast has been exceptional,&quot; Juniper says.

&quot;We had a much higher increase in both investor demand and owner occupier demand from Melbourne and Sydney,&quot; Juniper says, adding that there are still high number of owner-occupiers moving from the southern states to the Sunshine Coast.

&quot;People are still not tied to the city, there&#39;s been no change to that&quot;, Juniper says.

Investors are still keen from Sydney and Melbourne, with the vacancy rate holding firm at record lows of around 0.5 per cent.

Cube&#39;s latest offering is Seasons by Cube, which Juniper says is a much more budget conscious apartment development in Birtinya.

The majority of stock in the development of 146 apartments is under $600,000, with it focused on bringing an affordable product to the market.

Prices start from $495,000.

Cube only have a handful of apartments left at another one of their Birtinya developments, Curve, which is set for completion in July.

&quot;There are quite a few people in the market looking to move immediately, reflected by the area&#39;s very low vacancy rate&quot;, Juniper suggests, adding that that gives Curve an advantage in the current market that the product will be available to move in in just a few months.

Cube have their&nbsp;premium product,&nbsp;Nature at Cotton Tree in Maroochydore, overlooking&nbsp;Rotary Park and the Maroochy River.

Juniper told Cottee Parker Architects to deliver&nbsp;the best the Sunshine Coast has ever seen.&nbsp;

&quot;Nature allowed me to do some things you couldn&#39;t do in other developments&quot;, Juniper says of the boutique 13 apartment development. The ground floor is dedicated tp communal space and facilities&nbsp;including a 25-metre lap pool, gym, steam room and sauna and&nbsp;yoga studio, as well as barbecue areas and a private dining area.

Cube are also in the planning stages of one of their best projects to date in Alexandra Headland.

Sunshine Coast apartment demand continues as Cube sell-out one development, launch another

<html><body>
The local developer Henzell Property Group has sold more than 80 per cent of the first stage of Corsica Residences, part of their $200 million master-planned community on the Sunshine Coast.

The waterfront apartment and townhouse in Pelican Waters at Caloundra has seen 38 townhouses and apartments sales across the first stage, with strong demand locally as well as huge interest from interstate buyers looking to Queensland.

It was local owner-occupiers who drove the majority of sales. 

Apartments range in size from 143 sqm to 261 sqm and are priced from $625,000, with terrace homes up to 267s qm priced from $800,000.

<a href="/new-apartments/the-cove-stage-1-1-glover-place-pelican-waters"><img alt="" height="793" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/the_cove_townhouses.jpg" width="1600"></a>

Construction on the first homes is expected to commence in May this year with buyers snapping up the first stage off the back of the penthouse terrace collection sell-out late last year. 

All five of the luxury penthouse terrace collection within the first stage sold within a week since its launch to market. One of the three bedroom apartments in the penthouse collection sold to a Melbourne buyer purchasing sight unseen for $1.5 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27849]

Mclean Henzell, managing director of Henzell Property Group, said the sales achieved are reflective of the high demand for luxury new residences in Pelican Waters tailored toward downsizers.

“We have been overwhelmed with inquiry since the launch and to have sold more than 80% of apartments and terrace homes in the first stage, including the sell-out of our penthouse terrace collection, puts us way ahead of where we anticipated,” Mr Henzell said.

“The sales reflect the extremely strong underlying demand for downsizer product among a local market of buyers who have been a part of the Pelican Waters community for many years but wish to downsize. 

The Cove is the final instalment in the Pelican Waters community which the Henzell family has been developing for over 30 years. It is set to be completed in 2025.

<a href="/new-apartments/the-cove-stage-1-1-glover-place-pelican-waters"><img alt="" height="801" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/the_cove_entry.jpg" width="1200"></a>

The Cove will be developed over four stages and includes 220 apartments and terrace homes, a grocer and waterfront restaurant. O.G.E Group Architects has designed the full masterplan.

Marcus Muir, sales and marketing director at Henzell Property Group, said that while the community was designed to appeal to local owner-occupiers and downsizers, exceptional interest has come from interstate buyers seeking to relocate to the Sunshine Coast.

“The Cove has been meticulously designed over a number of years to bring something to market that buyers were calling out for,” Mr Muir said.

“The Covid pandemic is definitely elevating peoples’ plans to move from southern states to Queensland and we’re seeing an increase in enquiries week on week.”

The former Socceroo Brett Holman and wife Femke have downsized on the Sunshine Coast.

Having sold their Peregian Beach holiday home for $2.55 million mid-way through last year, they’ve gone off-market to secure a near new property in the same coastal suburb.

They’ve spent $1.15 million on a home on the Peregian Golf Course.

Only completed last year, the home has five bedrooms, including a master with its own sitting area, walk in wardrobe and ensuite which spans the entire length of the top level.

There’s a dedicated media room, a kitchen with butler’s pantry and an alfresco area overlooking the pool.

Richardson &amp; Wrench Noosa agent Kerry Sullivan secured the sale off-market.

The Holman’s had previously nearer the beach, but flipped the modern 2018-built home half way through last year.

Having paid $1.95 million, they sold the Tim Ditchfield-designed four bedder for $2.55 million.

Holman, who runs a small football academy in the Sunshine Coast, and Femke are based in a five bedroom home in New Farm, which they bought for $2.43 million in 2016 when returning to Australia after spending 14 years playing soccer across Europe and Asia.

Born in Bankstown, Holman started his soccer career at Parramatta Power in the NSL before joining Dutch club Feyenoord in 2002.

Holman left Holland in 2012 to join Aston Villa in the English Premier League for a season then went on to play in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Holman has represented the Socceroos 63 times, scoring nine goals.
