<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/urban-property-group">Urban Property Group</a> is advancing a major residential and mixed-use development in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/edmondson-park-nsw-2174">Edmondson Park</a>, with plans for 15 buildings delivering more than 1,800 apartments in one of Sydney’s fastest-growing transport-oriented precincts.

The development application covers a consolidated 3.2-hectare landholding across Buchan Avenue, within walking distance of Edmondson Park Station and adjacent to the future high school site.

The 15 buildings will range in size, from around four to 40 storeys. They will deliver around 1,827 apartments, at a minimum. Some of the apartments might be designated build-to-rent, and some co-living and affordable housing.

The largest of the three parcels, Site 5, will accommodate 871 apartments along with the full retail offering. Site 3 will house 552 apartments and Site 4, 404.

Development around Edmondson Park Station has been under consideration since 2010, when Landcom lodged a concept plan for the Edmondson Park South Precinct. The plan included 3,530 dwellings and a new town centre.

UPG later acquired five sites from Landcom. Two of these sites, which are not part of the current application, are located opposite Site Three. They have approval for 178, three-level townhouses.

The location’s proximity to key infrastructure—particularly the train station and Ed.Square Town Centre—has positioned Edmondson Park as a critical node in the Western Parkland City’s long-term housing strategy. Its dual frontages and adjacency to education and retail amenities further enhance its potential as a high-density urban hub.

Urban’s latest plans reflect growing momentum in higher-density development across south-west Sydney, with increasing buyer and investor interest in well-connected precincts that integrate transport, retail, and community infrastructure.

Sunshine Coast developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/cube-developments">Cube Developments</a> has secured a prime Golden Beach site for $10.775 million, with plans already lodged for a new lifestyle development as demand for quality residential opportunities across the region continues to surge.&nbsp;

A national expressions of interest campaign led by Colliers agents Nick Dowling and Baydn Dodds resulted in the sale of the 11,236 sqm site at 9 Onslow Street Golden Beach, just 100 metres from the beach.

Cube has submitted a development application for a five-storey, 60-unit residential project to be delivered on a 2,034 sqm portion of the site. Featuring sweeping ocean and Glasshouse Mountain views, resort-style amenities including a pool, recovery spa, food and beverage outlet and &nbsp;commercial space it is designed to appeal to downsizers and lifestyle seekers and represents a &nbsp;major step in the reinvigoration of Golden Beach.&nbsp;

<img alt="9 Onslow St" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="63e0c976-af65-408c-b531-0e44f44ee598" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/01_CUBE_9OnslowSt_artist%20impression%20EXTERNAL%2001.jpg?VersionId=IUC5T0BpnyT7_DMOtDIxis0DfCd30LRJ" />

Cube’s planned development on the Onslow Street site will join its growing Sunshine Coast portfolio of high calibre projects, which includes Oasis at Bokarina Beach and Nature at Cotton Tree.&nbsp;

Cube Developments Director Scott Juniper said Golden Beach was fast becoming one of Queensland’s most sought-after property destinations.&nbsp;

“The once sleepy suburb of Golden Beach has well and truly arrived,” Juniper said.&nbsp;

“World-class infrastructure projects, coupled with an unmatched water-based lifestyle, are fuelling &nbsp;growing demand in the area.”&nbsp;

The Onslow Street site is currently occupied by Golden Beach Holiday Park improved with a 12-room &nbsp;motel-style complex, 70 powered caravan sites, a manager’s residence, and amenities. It is zoned for &nbsp;a maximum 18-metre height limit, allowing for sweeping water views from future development.&nbsp;

Colliers Sunshine Coast Managing Director Nick Dowling said the transaction added to a string of &nbsp;major development plays in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/caloundra-qld-4551">Caloundra</a>, one of Australia’s most supply-constrained and tightly held &nbsp;coastal markets.&nbsp;

“We saw really strong interest in the site with developers drawn to its walkable amenity, laid-back &nbsp;lifestyle, and the coasts’ growing infrastructure pipeline,” Nick Dowling said.&nbsp;

“The site provided an ideal opportunity for developers to take advantage of a rapidly growing pocket of the Coast.”&nbsp;

The Sunshine Coast new apartment market is booming, with Gardner Vaughan recently securing a site on Bulcock Street, and RCQ planning another three towers down the road.

Colliers agent Baydn Dodds said&nbsp;transaction reflects the ongoing strength of the Sunshine Coast market and the high level of &nbsp;demand for development opportunities in lifestyle destinations like Caloundra.

“The Sunshine Coast is forecast to grow by nearly 240,000 people to 2046, requiring almost 90,000 &nbsp;new homes. That equates to around 3,600 new dwellings per year just to keep up.&nbsp;

“The region is one of only three markets nationally to record an increase in crane activity, showing &nbsp;renewed momentum across the development pipeline—particularly in the residential sector."

Strong developer appetite for Sunshine Coast continues as Colliers transact another Caloundra site, cementing the area’s status as a growth hotspot

Cube secures Golden Beach site amid fierce development demand 

Builder-developer McNab has received development approval for <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/tannery-residences-439-montague-road-west-end-qld-4101">The Tannery Residences</a> in Brisbane’s West End – a project that will set a new benchmark for integrating heritage preservation with modern wellness-focused living.

The original 19th-century Dixon’s Tannery – a rare piece of Brisbane’s industrial history – will be carefully preserved and reimagined as ‘the Retreat’, a communal wellness space at the heart of the vibrant 10-storey residential precinct.

McNab Founder and Executive Chairman Michael McNab said the project provided a unique opportunity to pay tribute to Brisbane’s rich tannery history as part of the premium residential building.

“This isn’t just about building homes, it’s about preserving Brisbane’s past while creating spaces that genuinely support residents’ wellbeing,” McNab said.

“Properties that honour history while delivering modern design have unique appeal and there’s a growing demand for spaces with both character and legacy.

“This is the first truly integrated wellness and heritage project of its kind in Brisbane, and we’ve worked closely with heritage consultants and designers to ensure it respects and elevates the site’s legacy.

“By incorporating over 1,100sqm of dedicated communal space across the ground level and rooftop, The Tannery responded directly to this shift we’re seeing in buyer priorities.”

Designed in collaboration with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cottee-parker-architects">Cottee Parker Architects</a>, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/aspect-studios">Aspect Studios</a>, and Tom Mark Henry, The Tannery will deliver 81 two-, three-, and four-bedroom residences.

Residents will enjoy expansive rooftop amenities, including a pool and landscaped gardens, outdoor dining areas, a sunset lawn, and dog-friendly zones.

The Retreat, thoughtfully integrated into the original tannery building, will include a sauna and steam room, hot and cold plunge pools, an outdoor shower and tropical seating area, a large commercial-grade gym with dedicated cardio and weights zones, and a Pilates and stretch studio.

Additional resident spaces include a private dining room, cinema, library, and co-working areas – all designed to foster connection and wellbeing, within a setting rich in character and history.

Jade Nottage from Tom Mark Henry said The Tannery Residences sought to blend the original building’s heritage elements with a modern subtropical design.

“We were inspired by the rich history of West End and the former heritage tannery. With a site with such diverse history, we wanted to create something that really feels connected to its past – a place that brings back and celebrates traditional crafts, community, nature, and well-being,” Nottage said.

“Our goal was to create an authentic and serene sanctuary – a retreat from the city that breathes new life into the old tannery and its story."

The 4,465 sqm site at 439 Montague Road will also retain a significant and much-loved mature Hoop Pine to the driveway entrance with extensive design planning undertaken to ensure its preservation.

The Tannery follows a string of recent successes for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mcnab-developments">McNab</a>, including White Main Beach – awarded Queensland’s Best Apartment Building over $50 million – and strong sales at Elements Budds Beach, where more than 75 per cent of apartments are sold and construction is well underway.

Construction of The Tannery Residences is scheduled to commence in the third quarter of 2025, with completion expected in late 2027.

Leading Gold Coast developer Sherpa Property Group has sold all of the 35 apartments in their coastal Palm Beach apartment development, Perspective Nexus, ahead of its September completion.

“To have now sold-out of Perspective Nexus before completion is just a fantastic result,” said Christie Leet, Founder of Sherpa Property Group.&nbsp;

“The sales have largely been driven by local downsizers, many live in Palm Beach already, who have been captivated by the beach lifestyle that Nexus will offer.

“We started designing this project in 2023, and to be just months out of from completion with all residences now sold is truly rewarding, and a testament to the hard work our team have put in, but the journey doesn’t finish here.”&nbsp;

Sherpa will be servicing the residents beyond settlement including managing any rentals.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108324 project_image_fid=250149]

"We have also hired a full-time concierge service who will assist with the move in process to show residents how to use their appliances, have someone set up their flat packs or run to Bunnings – whatever we can do to make the move-in that bit easier," Leet added.

Located at 949-953 Gold Coast Highway, Palm Beach, Perspective Nexus will deliver a collection of 35 apartments, including two half-floor penthouses, and three two-storey sky homes, with those on the upper levels capturing&nbsp;views of Currumbin Alley to the Pacific Ocean.

Residents at Perspective Nexus will enjoy exclusive access to a suite of resort-style amenities, including a wellness centre with magnesium spa, sauna and steam room, as well as pool, outdoor BBQ area, and alfresco dining area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108324 project_image_fid=245951]

“Palm Beach really means a lot to us at Sherpa. It’s a special place, and we’re proud to be contributing to its next chapter,” Leet said.

“We’ve put a lot of thought into creating something that fits the area and enhances the lifestyle locals already love."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108324 project_image_fid=250148]

Perspective Nexus marks the latest success in Sherpa’s ‘Perspective’ portfolio, following the strong momentum at Perspective Helm on Chevron Island, which is now 90% sold.&nbsp;

The record-breaking $10 million sale of Penthouse 10 at Helm earlier this year has reinforced Sherpa’s position as a leading creator of premium, owner-occupier residences across the Gold Coast.&nbsp;

With construction on track for completion in September by LPS Group, Perspective Nexus is set to become Palm Beach’s most exclusive new address.&nbsp;

Residents will soon be handed the keys to the boutique collection of four-bedroom townhomes at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/burton-place-ashburton-12-14-high-street-road-ashburton-vic-3147">Burton Place</a>, with move-ins expected in just three weeks.

Farey &amp; Co are now offering private inspections, with limited residences remaining as construction approaches completion.

In an area where development is rare and competition for quality homes remains strong, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/burton-place-ashburton-12-14-high-street-road-ashburton-vic-3147">Burton Place</a> introduces a practical solution for those looking to stay in Ashburton without giving up space, comfort, or design quality.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4398 project_image_fid=309303]

Developed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/leeka-group">Leeka Group</a>, Burton Place comprises just eight four-bedroom townhomes across three levels, offering features more commonly found in the standalone family homes that define the area.

Set back from High Street Road behind landscaped pathways and a wide, private driveway, the development is arranged across two symmetrical blocks of four homes.

The architecture favours robust, enduring materials, contemporary brickwork, full-height glazing, and minimal detailing, designed to offer both longevity and ease of maintenance.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4398 project_image_fid=309299]

Each home includes a double lock-up garage with direct internal access, a dedicated study for flexibility, and both balconies and private courtyards that provide outdoor space without requiring ongoing upkeep.

Interiors prioritise clarity and function: kitchens feature Bosch appliances, stone benchtops, and custom joinery, while open-plan living areas flow naturally to outdoor zones. Full-height windows ensure ample natural light across all three levels.

Master bedrooms include generous walk-in robes and ensuites finished in polished stone with brushed nickel fixtures. Secondary bedrooms are carpeted, well-proportioned, and serviced by discreet, well-appointed bathrooms.

The overall layout supports privacy between zones while maintaining accessibility across each level.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4398 project_image_fid=3027]

Burton Place’s location supports a car-light lifestyle, just minutes from <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/ashburton-vic-3147">Ashburton</a> Village and close to local green spaces including Ashburton Park and Markham Reserve.

With cafés, grocers, healthcare services, and public transport nearby, the project caters to buyers seeking amenity-rich living just 25 minutes from the CBD.

Construction is over 85 per cent complete, with settlement and move-ins expected early next month.

Until eight years ago, Stones Corner was simply a neighbourhood within Greenslopes and Coorparoo. But in 2017, the small 0.6-square-kilometre area became its own suburb, named after James Stone, who operated a ginger beer shop there in 1875.

Anchored by Hanlon Park—one of Brisbane's best parks—Stones Corner is now well and truly on the map.

“Stones Corner, a small and deliciously eclectic urban village, is one of inner-city Brisbane’s biggest residential opportunities and best-kept secrets,” Slaite Projects Director Brett Jackson says.

The Slaite team, on behalf of developer <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/demartini-fletcher-property">DeMartini Fletcher Property</a>, recently launched <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/corner-house-stones-corner-18-stoneham-street-stones-corner-qld-4120">Corner House</a>—just 88 apartments on the corner of Montague and Stoneham Streets. Within a matter of months, 50 per cent of the apartments have already been spoken for.

We recently joined Jackson at the onsite display suite for Corner House to find out more about the project.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/catw4iGwXG4?si=UW4dgVxIHsfgHlvU" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

“Corner House honours the character and vernacular of Stones Corner while adding a fresh contemporary spin,” Jackson says.

The building has been designed by Ellivo Architects, who incorporated the existing red brick corner structure—a nod to the surrounding area. The upper levels step back and are wrapped in curved balconies with soft, fluid edges.

While larger towers are rising in the nearby Woolloongabba precinct, Corner House keeps things deliberately modest. The 88 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments are spread across an 11-level building.

“Each residence has been designed to be luxuriously spacious, with open-plan living, a large entertainer’s kitchen, and ample storage,” Jackson says.

Flush floor finishes allow living areas to flow directly onto the balcony, while green-screen planters between apartments help soften sightlines and maintain privacy.

There’s a noticeable consistency in the finishes throughout—no jarring leap between entry-level and premium inclusions. Kitchens come fitted with a full suite of integrated Italian-designed Kleenmaid appliances, including double fridges and freezers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149098 project_image_fid=330588]

A strong design trend over the past five years has been to place resident amenities on the rooftop—and that's exactly what Ellivo leaned into when designing the building.

“The rooftop at Corner House has been conceived as an all-encompassing experience designed to enhance your lifestyle,” Jackson says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149098 project_image_fid=330599]

The roof will feature a resort-style infinity pool that spans almost the entire width of the building, a spa, sauna, and ice bath, as well as a gym, yoga lawn, herb garden, and BBQ facilities.

Construction has commenced at Corner House with an early 2028 completion.

"A deliciously eclectic urban village": Inside Stones Corner's newest apartment development, Corner House

It's all about location at Samuel's newest residential development, <a href="/new-townhouses/hali-dromana-105-111-point-nepean-road-dromana-vic-3936">Hali Dromana</a>.

Hali Dromana, 70 low-maintenance townhouses designed by renowned Melbourne architect Cera Stribley, are set to rise directly across the road from one of the best beaches on the Mornington Peninsula.

We recently visited Dromana and the display suite for Hali, down the street from the near two-hectare Point Nepean Road site that Samuel secured several years ago because of its&nbsp;unrepeatable nature.

Darren Blair, Director of Blair Property Group, walked us through what makes Hali one of the most exciting new offerings on Victoria’s coastline.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/OdyA4-G_bQg?si=hPnLsz9qNcTXdVLR" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

“Hali enjoys a rare uninterrupted outlook to the beach that can never be built out—just steps from the shoreline, which stretches for three kilometres before merging seamlessly with Safety Beach,” Blair says.

The project offers quick access to the nearby village centre, where residents will find cafes, boutique retailers, and casual dining—all within walking distance.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=147112 project_image_fid=330350]

Designed by Cera Stribley, Hali draws inspiration from the classic 1960s Australian beach house while delivering all the comforts and style expected of a contemporary home.

“Their approach was to take the charm of a classic 1960s Aussie beach house and reimagine it for modern living,” Blair says. “It’s a clean, contemporary design that still feels warm, familiar, and perfectly suited to beachside living.”

Hali offers a range of two, three, and four-bedroom townhouses, each designed to maximise natural light and embrace its coastal surroundings. Interiors feature a neutral beach-inspired palette, with large windows and open-plan living that flows effortlessly to outdoor spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=147112 project_image_fid=330356]

Around a quarter of the large site has been reserved for open green space, with the homes being well set back from the street, creating a mini-community only footsteps from the sand.

Each home has been designed with sustainability front of mind. All residences will boast a 7-star energy rating, are gas-free, and EV charge-ready, ensuring comfort and efficiency for years to come.

“It’s the kind of place that just feels right by the coast,” Blair says. “A relaxed, low-maintenance home designed for easy, everyday living.”

The Gold Coast new development space hasn't seen a project like <a href="/new-townhouses/capri-villas-81-salerno-street-isle-of-capri">Capri</a> in years.

While most developers are building upwards in response to the evolving <a href="/developments/gold-coast-qld">Gold Coast</a> skyline, <a href="/developers/monaco-property-group">Monaco Property Group</a> has taken a different approach, opting to create a private, gated community featuring 48 villa-like townhouses.

What makes <a href="/">Capri</a> so rare is the land and the location. Indeed <a href="/new-townhouses/capri-villas-81-salerno-street-isle-of-capri">Capri</a> represents the first major-scale development on the <a href="/developments/isle-of-capri-qld-4217">Isle of Capri</a> in three decades.

While tower developers can typically build on plots of 1,000 sqm or less, <a href="/new-townhouses/capri-villas-81-salerno-street-isle-of-capri">Capri</a> spans around 12,000 sqm, an exceptionally rare landholding in the Gold Coast property market, especially in such a prime location near the best parts of the coast.

We recently spoke with the team delivering <a href="/new-townhouses/capri-villas-81-salerno-street-isle-of-capri">Capri</a> to find out more.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Mi3llnK26_I?si=l3m-Kza-_NwmRxdV" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

“<a href="/developments/isle-of-capri-qld-4217">Isle of Capri</a> is extremely well located on the Gold Coast,” Monaco Property Group Managing Director, Jonathan Grasso, says.

“It offers all the benefits of connectivity but also has very good access points, whether heading to Surfers Paradise or the Bundall precinct.”&nbsp;

The gated community has been carefully designed with downsizers in mind, offering three-bedroom villas just 800 metres from the cafes, restaurants and shops at <a href="/new-townhouses/capri-villas-81-salerno-street-isle-of-capri">Capri</a> on Via Roma.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=139511 project_image_fid=298829]

<a href="/project-marketer/new-property-agent-qld-npa">NPA Projects</a>&nbsp;Director Andrew Erwin&nbsp;highlighted the community-centric amenities of <a href="/new-townhouses/capri-villas-81-salerno-street-isle-of-capri">Capri</a>, cleverly positioned at the heart of the community. The facilities will comprise a resort-style swimming pool,&nbsp;sun deck, covered entertaining area and BBQ pavilion and residents' lounge complete with built-in bar and fully equipped kitchen.

"Capri will have a strong community focus, whether it's through shared travel, local activities, or simply connecting with neighbors who share common interests," Erwin said.

“It suits people looking for a little bit more variation in their lifestyle."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=139511 project_image_fid=298830]

<a href="/new-townhouses/capri-villas-81-salerno-street-isle-of-capri">Capri</a> is currently under construction under the watchful eye of reputable Gold Coast builder <a href="/builders/greyburn">Greyburn</a>.

Managing Director John Kearney said everything about the development is best in class.

“There wasn’t going to be one stone left unturned on this project,” Kearney said.

“From the best trades to the best supplies and supervision, every detail has been meticulously considered.”

<a href="/new-townhouses/capri-villas-81-salerno-street-isle-of-capri">Capri</a> is set to be completed in four stages, with the first residents expected to move in by mid-2025.

Inside the Capri villas: A development not seen in three decades, and likely never again

Boutique apartment developer&nbsp;Alroe&nbsp;is currently delivering the most luxurious apartment project in <a href="/developments/main-beach-qld-4217">Main Beach</a> right now.

Different to what would be classed as a typical apartment development, the residences at Lune have been designed to be more like exclusive villas, with just six apartments in the building, located on the fringe of Broadwater and only a short walk from Tedder Avenue.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146373 project_image_fid=297482]

<a href="/new-apartments/lune-main-beach-19-21-rankin-parade-main-beach-qld-4217">Lune</a> marks the latest milestone in Alroe’s reputation as a leader in low-density developments. With over 13 years of experience across South East Queensland, <a href="/developers/alroe-constructions">Alroe</a> has delivered exceptional homes under its own brand, as well as for other developers, through its in-house construction arm, Alroe Constructions.

We recently visited the Lune site and spoke with Tye Alroe about the project, alongside <a href="/project-marketer/new-property-agent-qld-npa">NPA Projects</a> Director Andrew Erwin, who is overseeing the sales and marketing of the apartments.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pUFkz6F0q4I?si=Do1_3Ayooj6MfxMT" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

“We designed this architectural building to truly bring the outside in,” Alroe said, adding that the structure's half-moon design was inspired by the ebb and flow of the tides in Main Beach.

The apartments at Lune start from nearly 300 sqm and each have three bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, and three parking spaces.

Both of the ground-level apartments, and the two two-level penthouses, each have their own private swimming pools.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146373 project_image_fid=297498]

Andrew Erwin says&nbsp;Lune delivers exactly what the Main Beach market has been seeking.

“Main Beach is evolving into a luxury destination with a growing demand for boutique, high-quality residences like these,” Erwin explained.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146373 project_image_fid=297485]

Construction is well underway, with the building set to top out by Christmas 2024 and handovers expected by mid-2025.&nbsp;

Not since The Monaco, which all-but sold out several years ago, has there been an opportunity to buy something of this luxury and scale in Main Beach.

Developer <a href="/developers/scion">Scion</a> and Ray White Wider Sydney welcomed prospective buyers to the VIP launch of Sterling, the new apartment development set to transform a quiet pocket in Lane Cove North.

A mix of local first home buyers, rightsizers and downsizers attended the event on site at 2 Merinda Street, with the building nearly finished by Scion's in-house construction team.

With one, two and three-bedroom apartments on offer, and prices starting from $750,000, Sterling has proved popular with the majority of buyer types.

<a href="/new-apartments/sterling-lane-cove-north-2-merinda-street-lane-cove-north-nsw-2066">Sterling</a> is one of very few new developments in <a href="/developments/lane-cove-north-nsw-2066">Lane Cove North</a>. It comprises 50 apartments, just six apartments per floor, ensuring the development is in keeping with the privacy its location expects.

&nbsp;

Sterling is also the first development in the area to be protected with Resilience Insurance's Latent Defects Insurance, a first resort insurance policy that covers apartment buildings for structural defects for 10 years post-completion.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136108 project_image_fid=303417]

Kitchens are equipped with integrated Miele ovens and cooktops and dishwashers by Fisher &amp; Paykel. The bathrooms feature rainfall showers and high-end fixtures and fittings.

All inclusions and designs go back to the project name, Sterling, reflective of the quality Scion is instilling across the whole of the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136108 project_image_fid=303414]

Open plan kitchen, living and dining spaces feature floor-to-ceiling windows to maximise natural light and offer views of the leafy surrounds and back to the Sydney CBD.

All apartments open onto either a garden courtyard, a balcony, or, for the upper-level apartments, expansive terraces that capture the best views.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136108 project_image_fid=303420]

The development also offers communal amenities, including a rooftop entertaining area equipped with barbecue facilities — reinforcing the project’s focus on creating a lifestyle centred around both community and comfort.

Sterling’s location on Merinda Street places it in the heart of nature without sacrificing accessibility to urban amenities.

Residents will be positioned near Stringybark Creek and the endangered Blue Gum High Forest while benefiting from proximity to key hubs like Chatswood and Macquarie Park.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136108 project_image_fid=303418]

Essential services and lifestyle destinations such as The Canopy community hub and major shopping centres are just a short drive away.&nbsp;

Scion has a solid reputation as a premium builder-developer across Sydney, with a string of projects completed and several in the pipeline.

Sterling will complete in early 2025, with buyers moving in shortly after.

Scion launches Sterling apartments in Lane Cove

The Grand Residences in Eastlakes has been the focal point of new development in the suburb since its completion in 2022.

No doubt the best apartment complex to be developed in Eastlakes, <a href="/buildings/the-grand-residences-eastlakes-16-evans-avenue-eastlakes">The Grand Residences</a> embody the connectivity of inner-city living, matched with the luxury finishes the Eastern Suburbs market expects.

We recently sat down with the team at McGrath Projects and Crown Property Agency to find out more about The Grand Residences, how it has shaped <a href="/developments/eastlakes-nsw-2018">Eastlakes</a> , and what buyers love about the new development.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Btr0G2cpTJk?si=0seFuVBp8WQuWojB" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

Crown Group completed The Grand Eastlakes in 2022 but kept a significant portion of the 133 apartments that were developed.&nbsp;

"We still have an amazing selection of apartments available, particularly one-bedroom apartments and sub-$1 million two-bedroom options, with prices starting at just $750,000," Adam Sparkes, Associate Director of <a href="/project-marketer/mcgrath-projects">McGrath Projects</a>, said.

"Many of our buyers have come from the immediate Eastlakes area, transitioning from older apartments that lack the modern floor plans, spatial planning, and amenities of a brand-new development."

The facilities, proximity to train and light rail stations, and immediate convenience of a Woolworths Metro downstairs, have too been key contributors to the successful relaunch of the project, developed by the respected Crown Group.

"I think the standout feature is the location of the project compared to others in the area," McGrath Projects agent Sam Noakes says.

"You’re a bit further from the main city, but still close enough to the airport, universities, and beaches."

The surrounding area is set for further growth, with plans for over 70 specialty stores and a medical centre across the road.

Inside The Grand Residences, Eastlakes: What the agents say

In the penthouse market, buyers expect the highest level of detail in every aspect of the apartment, from the design and orientation to the finishes.

Respected Brisbane developer, <a href="/developers/consolidated-properties">Consolidated Properties</a>, left no stone unturned when crafting the penthouses atop <a href="/new-apartments/monarch-residences-toowong-600-coronation-drive-toowong">Monarch Residences</a>, one of the best riverfront apartment developments produced on the Brisbane River in decades.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113455 project_image_fid=302326]

They knew exactly the clientele they were creating their apartments for, the affluent downsizer.

The Consolidated team recently revealed the final six residences&nbsp;atop the two-tower development, now over 95 per cent sold and under construction by building giant Hutchinson's Builders.

We recently visited the Monarch Residences display suite, on site at&nbsp;at 600 Coronation Drive, <a href="/developments/toowong-qld-4066">Toowong</a>, to chat with Don and the team at Consolidated about what made the penthouse collection special.

Don says the team worked closely with&nbsp;<a href="/architects/john-wardle-architects">John Wardle Architects</a> and <a href="/architects/cottee-parker-architects">Cottee Parker</a>&nbsp;to create a collection of uncompromised focus on quality, timelessness, and attention to detail.

The final penthouses, created to evoke the same grandeur as a home just without the additional maintenance, range in size from 295 sqm to 347 sqm.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113455 project_image_fid=302322]

They each have different floorplans, but the level of luxury is the same throughout, from soaring 3.4-metre-high ceilings to sweeping views of the Brisbane River and the city skyline from the riverfront terraces.

Everything in the penthouses is top-of-the-line. Herringbone European oak flooring features throughout the living areas, while the kitchen, fitted with a suite of&nbsp;premium V-ZUG Swiss appliances, is anchored by an oversized island bench with&nbsp;Dolce Vita quartzite.

Prospective penthouse buyers, as well as those who have been lucky enough to secure a piece of Monarch Residences, will be moving into the riverfront development in late 2025.

Discover Avery: A Boutique Sanctuary in the Heart of Glen Iris [Video]

TOGA's new apartment development, <a href="/new-apartments/the-kensington-147-151-anzac-parade-kensington">The Kensington</a>, is one of the most connected apartment developments the longstanding developer has produced in Sydney.

That's the view of Anthony Falas, who has spent the best part of a decade with TOGA across several developments in the company's long 61-year history.

The Kensington, 142 apartments currently under construction by 4.5 Star iCIRT rated builder DASCO, is located directly right outside a light rail stop, and is a short walk to the Prince of Wales Hospital and health precinct, the University of New South Wales, and Centennial Park.

I recently caught up with Anthony Falas to find out more about <a href="/new-apartments/the-kensington-147-151-anzac-parade-kensington">The Kensington</a>.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/WfcJFR1n4D0?si=_V2-Ya1FO296fj6G" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

Falas says given the location, The Kensington is ideally located for both investors and owner-occupiers.

"We're getting a lot of nurses and doctors because of the health precinct, and parents purchasing for their children who are students, both local and overseas," Falas says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110959 project_image_fid=307646]

While TOGA tends to build its own developments, given their new development portfolio that includes Macquarie Rise in Macquarie Park, Surry Hills Village, and a several large commercial and hospitality projects, they've brought DASCO in to deliver The Kensington.

“It’s a win-win for the customer,” Falas said, highlighting the added assurance that both TOGA and DASCO hold iCIRT ratings.&nbsp;This certification from Equifax is increasingly recognised as a quality benchmark in the property development industry.

The apartments at The Kensington will sit above seven retail spaces, something that TOGA always incorporates into its developments.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110959 project_image_fid=307645]

There are a variety of floorplans on offer at The Kensington, a mix of one, two, and three-bedroom apartments that will cater to a wide variety of buyers.

The Kensington also offers several SOHO apartments which combine commercial and residential with dual-entry access to essentially run a business from home.

Cranes are on site and early site works have commenced. Construction of The Kensington is set to conclude in 2026.

Among the most well-connected apartment developments TOGA has produced: Inside The Kensington

There's a reason apartment developer TOGA is set to soar past delivering over 1,000 apartments in Macquarie Park.

<a href="/developers/toga-group">TOGA</a> Executive General Manager, Tony Falas, says <a href="/developments/macquarie-park-nsw-2113">the suburb</a> is incredibly well connected, with the shopping centre acting as the focal point as well as the university, hospitals, and public transport links to wider Sydney.

TOGA's latest development in Macquarie Park, following on from its successful Macquarie Central, Macquarie Green, and One Twenty Macquarie developments, is Macquarie Rise, three towers with 268 apartments above retail and commercial spaces.

I recently caught up with Tony to find out more about <a href="/new-apartments/macquarie-rise-122-herring-road-macquarie-park">Macquarie Rise</a>.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/s8VoqEO9zkc?si=dfIXwi38K-aTTpeM" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

Falas said they have&nbsp;focused particularly on the amenity at Macquarie Rise, as well as the quality of the finish, which they believe is the best quality in the area in the market at the moment.

"We have looked at the competition and we wanted to position ourselves at the top as far as quality is concerned, and that's been vindicated by the buyers that are coming through."

Residents will have access to a suite of amenities including a heated pool, gym, a resident lounge, karaoke room, and a bookable dining room.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89243 project_image_fid=310789]

There has been a mix of first home buyers and downsizers in the development that offers one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments.

Several of the larger apartments have been cleverly designed to offer multifunctional rooms that have sliding panels rather than traditional doors, adaptable for various uses like study or guest rooms.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89243 project_image_fid=242700]

TOGA, one of few developers to be rated a Gold Star by Equifax, has started construction on site at 122 Herring Road, a site which Falas says is difficult to replicate given it's at the top of the hill.

Construction has started and is slated for completion in mid-2027
