<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.

Businessman Basil Mcilhagga, the Hong Kong-based CEO of mining giant Stibium Group, has listed his long-held Paddington home with $5.5 million hopes.
Mcilhagga's first purchase was a 300 square metre landholding which had a three bedroom terrace. He paid $540,000 back in 1992.
Seven years later he paid $360,000 for the 120 square metre next door.
Now the <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-nsw-paddington-130744770" target="_blank">Caledonia Street property</a> comprises a main house and an adjoining cottage.

The main residence has three bedrooms, two marble bathrooms and an entertainers' terrace with swimming pool.
The cottage has two bedrooms.
Bradfield Cleary agents Bob Guth and Georgie Cleary have the listing.
Another multi-lot Caledonia Street offering is from cosmetic surgeon Alia Nasser and her dentist husband Nasser Elhage who have $7.5 million hopes.
The couple bought the 450-square-metre property with a central courtyard and swimming pool for $5 million in 2013.
It comprised three dwellings on three titles.

Sports broadcaster Bruce McAvaney and wife Annie Johnson have sold their Fitzroy warehouse apartment for $1,376,000.
The apartment spans the top two levels of the converted MacRoberton's chocolate factory.
It sold to a young buyer from Collingwood, according to the Herald Sun.
There were three offers on the apartment that had a $1.35 million asking price.
<img class="size-full wp-image-449693" src="https://www.realestate.com.au/blog/images/1600x1600-fit,progressive/2019/03/19124719/capi_38b635cc24811fee744cd9a1e8038a73_f648f2d7a8fbc01af7cc456cb9e8a869.jpeg" alt="" data-capiid="f648f2d7a8fbc01af7cc456cb9e8a869">
The Rose Street apartment cost $1.1 million in 2015 and the couple renovated the bathroom, updated the kitchen and two bedrooms and installed an eco-friendly fireplace.
The couple are based in Adelaide. 
<img class="size-full wp-image-449692" src="https://www.realestate.com.au/blog/images/1600x1600-fit,progressive/2019/03/19124716/capi_38b635cc24811fee744cd9a1e8038a73_1efa76534c8d282e68c25be2080ae084.jpeg" alt="" data-capiid="1efa76534c8d282e68c25be2080ae084">

McAvaney previously told the Herald Sun they had used the apartment while working in Melbourne, and were considering moving permanently to Melbourne when they bought it four years ago.
</div>
But they now planned to “eventually build a small place down on the Fleurieu Peninsula”, south of Adelaide, they told the Herald Sun.
“We love (the apartment) and are very sad to let it go. It would have been our home,” McAvaney said.

Boost Juice founder Janine Allis and her husband Jeff have scored a windfall result on their Malvern East home.
They had a guide of $5 million to $5.5 million for the European-style home, but its unreported auction reportedly saw the price soar to $6.3 million, Nine Entertainment advised.
They paid $3.8 million in 2009 when they were upgrading from nearby in Malvern.
On the fringe of Hedgeley Dene Gardens, the four bedroom, three bathroom Glenbrook Avenue home features its own basement level home theatre, central reception hall, music room and sitting room.

<div id="div-gpt-ad-1553212080788-0" style="height: 1px; width: 1px;"> </div>
The living space opens to the outdoor terraces that meets the swimming pool and overlooks the mod-grass tennis court in the grounds.
Janine previously appeared on Shark Tank.
She's the part-owner of Retail Zoo, the parent company of Boost Juice, which she founded with Jeff from their home in 2000.

The comedic television presenter Julia Morris and her husband, Dan Thomas, have made the move back to Sydney from Melbourne.
They have chosen Coogee as their base, renting a modernised 1930s Coogee family home (above and below) that was offered at $2,000 a week over the summer break.
Their relocation — interrupted by Morris filming I’m a Celebrity Get me out of Here! in Africa — came after being selected to co-host Channel 10’s new show, Chris &amp; Julia’s Sunday Night Takeaway.
After six years away from Sydney, the move also meant they’d be closer to family who reside at Kincumber on the Central Coast.
The show, filmed live at the nearby Fox Studios Australia, hasn’t been a ratings winner.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2019/3/19/Morris3.jpg" alt="">
It has lost viewers three weeks in a row, down last Sunday night to 259,000 viewers.
Struggling against Nine’s Married At First Sight and Seven’s My Kitchen Rules, the show had debuted in late February with 383,000 viewers.
Morris and Dr Chris Brown both appear on the more successful Channel 10 show, I’m a Celebrity Get me out of Here! 
Their Coogee rental, last traded for $3.6 million in 2016, has four bedrooms, for the couple’s two daughters.
Morris and Thomas have their own master retreat, complete with a walk in wardrobe, ensuite and private balcony.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2019/3/19/Morris2.jpg" alt="">
The ground level living space, separate to the dining area, opens to a rear garden with lawns and a barbecue terrace.
Dr Chris Brown possibly helped them choose the eastern suburbs coastal lifestyle, as previously they’d did a stint in the harbour capital at Narrabeen.
Brown had long been based at Bondi until his move in 2017 to Clovelly, where he spent $5.8 million on a classic beach house.
Morris and Thomas had been paying around $2,000 a week in Melbourne, renting a 1920s home with a pool in Brighton which their landlords paid $4.5 million in 2015.
They retain a $400 a week investment property on the outskirts of Geelong which cost $366,000 in 2014. 
Morris, who grew up around Gosford the Central Coast, worked in real estate briefly as an agency receptionist before embarking on her career in comedy. 
After trying her luck in the UK, she returned to Australia teaming up with Gus Worland on The Singing Office. She then teamed up with opera singer David Hobson, winning It Takes Two in 2008.
During the It Takes Two series she had joked: “Australia, I think it’s time that a nearly 40-year-old, overweight woman wins something in this country”.

Jordana Sharon-Zipser, wife of hipages co-founder Roby Sharon-Zipser, has listed their Vaucluse abode for an April 11 auction.
The buyers have been given a $7 million price guidance by Ray White duo Gavin Rubinstein and Oliver Lavers.
It was bought from hotelier Andrew Lazarus and his wife Denise off-market for $8 million last May. The Olola Ave residence, with Cameron Kimber interiors, was bought after they sold their North Bondi semi for $2.85 million in 2016.
It seems they have their eye on something even better.
The Vaucluse prestige market has been quite active this year. Some of the activity included the pre-auction sale of the home of businessman Alex Ma above its $30 million price guide.
There was also Cambridge Ave sale of the home of yachtsman Warwick Rooklyn for $6,225,000, which was $725,000 above reserve.
Home improvement classifieds website hipages, which connects homeowners with tradies, was founded in 2004, with News Corporation now owning a stake.

The My Kitchen Rules co-host and celebrity chef Pete Evans and wife, the former glamour-model turned nutritionist Nicola Robinson, have decided to lease their former Malabar home.
The couple have quickly secured tenants having asked $1,600 a week. 
They've recently moved in to their forever home, just down the street, which they had been building for the last few years.
The former 1960s knockdown cost them $1.27 million in 2014. They spent around $1 million building the two-level, Metricon-designed home with a roof terrace and magnesium swimming pool.
Their former home was pulled from auction last month, when would-be buyers were being told similar homes were selling for between $2.5 million and $3 million.
It had cost them $1.44 million a 2013.
Built in 2008, it has five bedrooms and a designer commercial kitchen which opens on to a ground level wraparound ­courtyard.
Evans and Robinson have ­enhanced the size of the courtyard, which now features a swimming pool along with more entertaining space complete with barbecue and fireplace.
The upper level terrace, off the curved media room and master bedroom, has ocean views.
The couple wed in a secret ceremony in late 2016 on their farm.
The controversial celebrity chef hit headlines earlier when he endorsed a podcast supporting anti-vaxxer views, which actively encouraged parents to not listen to doctors' calls to vaccinate their children.
It comes after Evans said in 2016 there was no need for suncream.
