<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/collingwood-vic-3066">Collingwood</a>’s northern edge continues to sharpen its reputation as one of Melbourne’s most compelling cultural precincts, where established creative institutions, leading hospitality, and independent fashion converge within a tightly held inner-city neighbourhood.

Set within this evolving pocket, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/derby-street-by-milieu-collingwood-4-derby-street-collingwood-vic-3066">Derby Street by Milieu</a> draws on a location that balances proximity to some of the inner north’s most influential destinations with the quieter, tree-lined character that defines the streets edging East Melbourne. Positioned just moments from both Smith and Gertrude Streets, the address sits on the periphery of Collingwood’s cultural core, offering immediate access without the intensity of its busiest frontages.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=145576 project_image_fid=355945]

Gertrude Street, in particular, anchors the area’s identity as a destination for Melbourne’s leading food, art and fashion. Within a short walk, venues such as Marion, Cutler &amp; Co, IDES and the Builders Arms Hotel define a tightly curated dining scene with enduring citywide appeal, complemented by a strong fashion and retail presence including Havn, Le Labo and a selection of independent boutiques.

Nearby, institutions such as the Australian Print Workshop and Collingwood Yards sustain a constant rhythm of exhibitions, performances and creative output, embedding art and culture into the everyday fabric of the neighbourhood.

Smith Street, running parallel, extends this offering with a broader mix of hospitality and nightlife, maintaining its status as one of Melbourne’s most active inner-urban strips.

Beyond these high-energy streets, the immediate surrounds shift in tone. Derby Street and its neighbouring blocks are defined by low-rise heritage terraces, mature trees and a settled residential character. Fitzroy Gardens and Carlton Gardens are both within walking distance, alongside the Royal Exhibition Building and Melbourne Museum, bringing together green space and cultural landmarks within minutes of home.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=145576 project_image_fid=355985]

Connectivity remains a key advantage. The CBD sits within easy reach, accessible by tram along Smith Street in around 20 minutes, while also remaining close enough to walk or cycle, supported by the inner north’s established bike network.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/milieu-property">Milieu</a>’s long-standing connection to Collingwood underpins the project’s approach. With a portfolio that includes multiple nearby developments across Bedford, Peel and Napier Streets, the developer brings a sustained understanding of the area’s character and evolution. Derby Street continues this trajectory as a collaboration with award-winning Melbourne-based <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/studio-bright">Studio Bright</a>, marking the practice’s first multi-residential project in the inner north and reflecting a shared focus on design integrity and contextual response.&nbsp;

Balancing connection to the neighbourhood with a sense of seclusion and refuge, Derby Street by Milieu embodies a level of care and craft typically reserved for single residential projects. Comprising 22 residences across six storeys, with two to four-bedroom configurations priced from $1.15 million, the project is currently under construction with completion expected in late 2027.&nbsp;

A rare new apartment development in the Blue Mountains is the latest in a string of State Significant Development Applications submitted through the New South Wales Government's Housing Delivery Authority.

A total of 270 apartments are being proposed for the 1.16-hectare site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/blue-mountains-alpine-retreat-142-150-narrow-neck-road-katoomba-nsw-2780">142–150 Narrow Neck Road in Katoomba</a>, a parcel of land adjoining the former Katoomba Golf Course. The site was acquired for $3.85 million in 2021 by private developer VDM Prime.

The apartments, comprising a mix of serviced apartments, affordable housing, and traditional build-to-sell product, will be spread across eight low-rise buildings, along with a separate building for a new restaurant, arranged around a green spine that leads to a central park.

<img alt="Katoomba" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ee9a2072-f465-44f1-9076-80c9c8ecca02" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-04-22%20at%209.20.21%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=4bT0vQ7j_syl65wcrJmHGm3m5pTvwrY_" />

The Urban Design Report by Atlas Urban says the vision is to create a "contemporary mountain precinct that is responsive to its escarpment landscape, heritage character, and community context."

"The development responds to the current housing supply and affordability challenges identified under the NSW Housing Delivery Authority (HDA), providing a balanced mix of standard, affordable, and short-stay accommodation," the report noted.

"By introducing a variety of dwelling types and tenures, the proposal supports intergenerational living, local workforce retention, and greater housing choice within an area constrained by topography, heritage, and environmental protections."

Of the 270 units proposed, 52 will be serviced apartments. The remainder will comprise 54 studios, 121 one-bedroom units, 39 two-bedroom apartments, and four three- to four-bedroom residences.

<img alt="Katoomba" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="f704508d-1bdf-4170-955d-0256652402a7" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-04-22%20at%209.56.49%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=TzarHMO4gTOsblCqsbJQkvMqWj9nu2Au" />

The Design Report, by VDM Prime and appointed architect Antoniades Architects, noted that the design seeks to "provide a built form outcome that is highly considered, respectful and contextually fitting, whilst contributing positively to an evolving precinct."

"The site offers three frontages and the opportunity to provide a meaningful interface with the public domain environment. the design has a sympathetic response to streetscape and the green open space that surrounds the site."

The report states that the buildings are broken up to establish an appropriate bulk and scale, emphasised through height and setback strategies and defined through articulation that supports the transition of precinct granularity. It also notes that a central communal open space is established through the site to enhance the social dynamic and access to amenity, including natural ventilation and light to the apartments. The east and west frontages receive solar access during the morning and afternoon, whilst maximising views to the green open space.

The site adjoins the recently completed Yarrabee Katoomba development, comprising 24 duplexes that were completed last year and sold through McGrath Projects.

The relatively new Housing Delivery Authority pathway established by the NSW Government allows developers to submit State Significant Development Applications through a fast-tracked state process, effectively reducing reliance on local council approval pathways and aiming to accelerate housing delivery across New South Wales.

First look: Nearly 300 apartments pitched on former Katoomba golf course site

In Melbourne’s established inner east, the qualities that define a traditional house, width, height, and access to open ground, are increasingly difficult to replicate in new residential developments. Larger landholdings are scarce, and with them, the ability to create apartments that extend beyond compact, internalised layouts.&nbsp;

In <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/kew-vic-3101">Kew</a>, where the residential fabric is shaped by generous setbacks and mature tree canopies, that tension is especially visible.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/ricdanic-investments-pty-ltd">Ricdanic</a>&nbsp;is bringing forward a boutique collection of just 13 residences across two buildings at 9–11 Wimba Avenue, Kew. Comprising six homes at No.9 and seven at No.11, the project sits on a quiet, tree-lined street just off Cotham Road.&nbsp;

Each apartment has been planned with a level of independence more commonly associated with standalone dwellings, balancing privacy with the efficiencies of apartment living.

Architect Chris Idle, who has been practising for over two decades, says projects like this don’t come along often.

“There are very few opportunities to do these kinds of developments in leafy, established suburbs,” he explains. “To get this level of amenity, natural light, and architectural freedom in such a setting is extremely rare.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140755 project_image_fid=366267]

The internal planning begins with width. Living areas extend beyond five metres, allowing furniture, circulation, and glazing to sit comfortably within the same zone without compression. Ceiling heights shift from three metres through to five metres in select areas, changing the sense of scale as you move through the apartment. These proportions are paired with double-glazed windows and fully electric systems, balancing volume with performance, supported by a 7.2 NatHERS energy rating.&nbsp;

From the main living space, the apartments open directly outward. Large sliding doors connect to private gardens averaging 125 square metres, with some residences also incorporating balconies of around 60 square metres. Rather than acting as secondary outdoor zones, these areas sit flush with the internal floor level, extending the usable footprint of the home and allowing for multiple modes of use, whether for quiet daily routines or larger gatherings.&nbsp;

The landscape, led by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/john-patrick-landscape-architects">John Patrick</a>, reinforces this relationship. Across the site, 23 different plant species have been introduced, including a mix of native and established varieties, arranged to maintain privacy while preserving sightlines and light access. Gardens are not treated as decorative buffers but as functional extensions of the apartments, shaped to accommodate movement, seating, and informal use over time.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140755 project_image_fid=366265]

Architecturally, the project draws from Kew’s historic residential language. Handmade bricks by Krause define the exterior, grounding the buildings within the material palette of the suburb, while interior finishes, stone, timber flooring, and restrained detailing, continue this approach internally. Architect Chris Idle describes the intent as long-term rather than stylistic: “We wanted it to feel timeless.”&nbsp;

This emphasis on durability extends to how the buildings are accessed and secured. Entry is managed through keyless systems, with a double-gated basement incorporating number plate recognition for vehicle access. Each residence is paired with a private lock-up garage accommodating two to three cars, alongside storage, while all entry points are monitored continuously. These measures sit alongside EV readiness and fully electric infrastructure, aligning the project’s operational systems with its long-term design outlook.&nbsp;

The setting remains central to how the development is experienced. Located within walking distance of Kew Junction and close to established schools including Carey Grammar and Xavier College, the address benefits from existing infrastructure while maintaining a residential quietness that is increasingly difficult to find at this scale.&nbsp;

Construction is being delivered by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/sinjen">Sinjen</a>, with a 10-year structural guarantee, with completion targeted for mid-2027.

High-end Sydney developer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen-group">Abadeen</a> has secured approval for one of its latest Mosman projects, one of the first developments approved by Mosman Council under the NSW Government’s Low and Mid-Rise Housing Policy.

The approval represents an important step in delivering well-considered housing next to established village locations on Sydney’s Lower North Shore, in line with the intent of the Low and Mid-Rise zoning framework. 
&nbsp; 
There are currently 13 other sites lodged within Mosman Council under the policy, with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/27-29-heydon-street-mosman-nsw-2088">Heydon Street</a> among the first to receive development consent. 
&nbsp; 
Abadeen Founder and Executive Chairman Justin Brown said the project reflects a considered and appropriate response to its planning context. 
&nbsp; 
“This approval demonstrates how carefully considered, design-led development can align with the objectives of the Low and Mid-Rise Housing Policy," Brown said.

"The scheme has been designed to respond sensitively to its village setting, with a built form, scale and level of amenity appropriate to its local context. The determination reflects a balanced and considered planning outcome, with Council recognising the capacity for this site to accommodate additional housing within a well-located and established precinct.”

<img alt="Abadeen secures first approval under low and mid-rise housing policy for Heydon Street, Mosman" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="92811ce3-02e8-44fc-996e-c61ae039bd3e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Heydon%20Street%20Aerial.jpg?VersionId=ZHJVuWQT64QcdrFJx963pFWFzTX7lI2I" />

The Heydon Street approval followed extensive consultation with Mosman Council, with Abadeen working closely with Council throughout the assessment process.

The approved scheme comprises 27 residences, with only four per floor, creating a low-density living environment. The building will include four half-floor penthouses designed to capture views across Middle Harbour, Sydney Harbour and the surrounding district.&nbsp;

The project is expected to appeal to downsizers and owner-occupiers seeking house-like proportions, privacy and local convenience. There will be north-facing Middle Harbour views from the second level upward. It is also just a flat 100-metre walk to Bridgepoint Shopping Centre, which will appeal to owner-occupiers and in particular downsizers.

Two-bedroom residences are expected to be priced from $1.99 million when sales launch later this year. 
&nbsp; 
Joe Tack, CEO at Abadeen, said the outcome reflects both the quality of the site and the broader need for well-located housing. 
&nbsp; 
“This is a highly considered site within a highly established local setting, offering elevated views and strong connectivity. The project has been designed to respond to that context, delivering a scale and quality of housing aligned with both the planning framework and evolving market demand.” 
&nbsp; 
“This approval is particularly significant in the context of Mosman, where new housing supply has historically been limited. While it represents the first approval of this scale in Mosman to be achieved in over 50 years, it is importantly located within a well-established residential location, in close proximity to the established commercial amenity of Spit Road and Mosman Village. It reflects strong confidence in Abadeen’s approach to design, delivery and community integration, while contributing to the delivery of much-needed housing in a highly constrained market.”

Abadeen has an established track record across Sydney’s Lower North Shore, with recent completions including KOYO in Crows Nest and ENSO in Neutral Bay.

In Mosman, Abadeen recently completed The Hampden, with Mosman Residences on the corner of Spit Road and Clifford Street scheduled for completion later this year. Construction has also commenced at Burran Residences, comprising three full-floor ultra-premium homes positioned just 50 metres from Balmoral Beach, with residences expected to achieve prices in excess of $20 million. Two further projects are also progressing through planning within the local government area.

Apartment developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/martello">Martello™</a> is one of the latest entrants to the Gold Coast development market, with its debut project set to be one of the most boutique offerings on Chevron Island in recent years.

Martello has unveiled <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/aere-chevron-island-18-20-mawarra-street-chevron-island-qld-4217">Aere Chevron Island</a>, a collection of 33 large-scale two-, three-, and four-bedroom apartments across an 18-storey building on Mawarra Street.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143932 project_image_fid=367517]

The developer has placed a strong emphasis on wellness, briefing architecture firm Raunik Design to embed this philosophy into the project. It is a direction <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/martello">Martello™</a> plans to carry through its future developments along the coast.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/martello">Martello™</a> has positioned Aere as a continuation of its human-centric development approach, with a focus extending beyond amenity to the fundamentals of layout, natural light, and spatial planning. Promax Construction has already been appointed to deliver the project, with construction expected to commence in the coming months as part of the group’s broader expansion into South East Queensland.

Rising above the low-rise fabric of Chevron Island, Aere’s design emphasises generous internal proportions and uninterrupted outlooks, with residences oriented to capture coastal, skyline, and waterway views. Interiors prioritise open-plan living, with large-format glazing and carefully considered transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143932 project_image_fid=367508]

The upper levels are dedicated to larger-format homes, including four-bedroom residences designed as half-floor offerings. These layouts prioritise separation between living and sleeping zones, along with increased privacy and storage, features more commonly associated with detached housing than traditional apartment product.

Aere’s private resident amenity spaces centre on wellness. A rooftop level will incorporate a heated swimming pool, sauna and spa, alongside a residents’ lounge, dining areas and barbecue spaces, while additional shared facilities throughout the building include a gym and yoga area.

The inclusion of both social and quieter retreat spaces reflects a broader shift in higher-end apartment design on the Gold Coast, where developers are increasingly responding to owner-occupier demand for buildings that support long-term living rather than short-stay use.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143932 project_image_fid=367814]

Aere is positioned within walking distance of Chevron Island’s village centre along Thomas Drive, as well as the HOTA cultural precinct via the Green Bridge, connecting residents to parklands, galleries, and event spaces.

For <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/martello">Martello™</a>, Aere represents the first in a series of planned Gold Coast developments, with the group also exploring opportunities in other coastal precincts, including Kirra and Palm Beach.

The move north comes as sustained population growth and infrastructure investment continue to reshape South East Queensland, with developers increasingly targeting boutique, design-led projects in established lifestyle pockets. Aere’s relatively small scale and emphasis on spatial quality position it within this emerging segment of the market.

How Sekisui House Australia's West Village has transformed Brisbane's West End Precinct

The final apartments in the penultimate towers of Sekisui's West End masterplan, West Village, are now being sold.

The Allere Collection, which comprises two side-by-side towers Uno and Duno, is over 85 per cent sold. They'll be joining a thriving, well established community when they're completed in late 2024, a decade after Sekisui started the award-winning redevelopment of the much-loved Peters Ice Cream factory site.

The Allere Collection has proven popular with a variety of demographics, from first home buyers, pet owners, and young and established families, given the Mollison Street project sits within close proximity to seven schools.

Both Uno and Duo have been designed by renowned architecture firm Rothelowman, and rise 20 storeys above the West End precinct.

Residents within the Allere Collection will also have the benefit of enjoying double the amenity, with shared access to both Uno and Duo rooftops.

Crowning the Uno tower will be a pool, enclosed dining space, seating areas, a vegetable garden, conservatory, as well as ‘Paw Pavilion’ - an off leash dog space on the rooftop.&nbsp;Topping Duo will be a pool, heated spa, enclosed lounge room and dining space, along with outdoor barbecue facilities and sun loungers.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=207148]

The Allere Collection offers an incredibly connected lifestyle for it's resident which not many other projects can offer in the whole of Brisbane, given a large part of the extensive 2.6 hectare masterplan is dedicated to creating a connected village vibe.

A full-line Woolworths supermarket ensures easy access to daily essentials, while Harris Farm Markets provides fresh produce. Goodlife Health Clubs cater to fitness needs, and a chemist and medical centre offer comprehensive healthcare services.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204843]

There's over 25 food and lifestyle providers which offers a diverse range of dining and leisure options.

Art and culture enthusiasts will find delight in the on-site Metro Arts Theatre Precinct, hosting regular performances by renowned organisations such as Opera Queensland and Queensland's Chamber Orchestra, Camerata.&nbsp;

Nestled within a living heritage village that pays homage to the iconic Peters Ice Cream and Cone Factories, The Allere Collection embraces its rich history. Built in 1920, the factories have become an integral part of the village's charm and character.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204874]

Sustainability lies at the core of The Allere Collection's ethos. The development incorporates various initiatives to minimise its environmental impact and create a harmonious living space.&nbsp;As a 6-star Green Star Community, it sets a new standard for environmentally friendly living. Tinted windows help reduce heat gain and energy bills, while rainwater tanks and plumbing for a greywater recycling system contribute to water conservation. A 21kW solar PV system generates renewable energy for communal areas, reducing the community's reliance on traditional power sources.

Expansive green spaces provide residents with a connection to nature, while sustainability measures are integrated throughout the community. The Walk Score of 99 out of 100 signifies the high level of walkability and accessibility.

Sekisui's The Allere Collection in West Village hits 85% sold

Brisbane's off the plan property market led the country in sales comparative to how much stock is on the market, according to Urbis' Apartment Essentials National Snapshot Q1 2023.

Brisbane just edged the Gold Coast having the highest sales rate as a percentage. Nearly a fifth of apartments that were on the market sold in Q1.

Sydney and Perth were just below the 10 per cent mark, while Melbourne had the largest gap with just five per cent of apartments selling compared to how many are on the market.

<img alt="Brisbane Q1" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="81fa8299-1584-4fda-8cb9-b0889a7f574e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-06-15%20at%208.33.22%20am.png?VersionId=WWA34iAicIoYMjKHpZMnlSfnL_cyK3cM" />

Brisbane was pushed to the highest sales to supply rate due to two projects in Toowong.

Mosaic's The Prescott, which is only in its presale phase, secured 94 sales in Q1 with an average sale price of $973,000. There's only 100 apartments in the Lissner Street development.

The next best performer was Monarch Residences, the recently launched project by Don O'Rorke's Consolidated Properties. They scored 75 sales in Q1, at an average sale price of just over $1 million. Nine apartments in the development have sold for over $4 million.

They've got 224 apartments across the two towers, which Hutchinsons Builders have just started constructing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113455 project_image_fid=211492]

James MacGinley, Head of Residential at Consolidated Properties Group, said the key to selling in the current market is really understanding the buyer demographic.

"At Monarch Residences, we have split our penthouse collection between the top floors and the lower level along the riverfront.

"This decision was made to appeal to two distinct groups of buyers - those wanting a traditional penthouse with horizon views, and those looking for a ‘river home’ with the benefits of apartment living."

Mirvac's Isle Waterfront project in Newstead, which is currently under construction, secured 21 sales in Q3 as it approaches sell out. The ASX-listed developer has sold over 110 apartments to date, at an average sale price of $1.261 million.

<img alt="Brisbane Q1" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fe488c7b-90e0-4a06-b2be-25eec93ab903" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-06-15%20at%208.36.04%20am.png?VersionId=sgv7Ic3oxTsVdoSlngtQb_znnMqwWMWz" />

Sekisui's giant West Village masterplan has performed consistently well ever since the national developer started the masterplan over seven years ago.

Their sixth and seventh tower in the masterplan, Uno and Duo, which make up the Allere Collection both saw continued sales through Q1 2023. Uno, which has 94 apartments, secured 19 sales in the first three months of the year, and it's neighbouring Uno tower had 16 sales.

Both buildings, designed by Rothelowman, are under construction and have just over 20 apartments left in each. Two-bedroom apartments are still available, priced from $860,000.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=207148]

One of the five-bedroom penthouses made headlines earlier this year when it sold for $7,016,000, a record for West End.

The Allere Collection will be the penultimate opportunity to buy into the thriving $1.1 billion community. Only one more tower will rise from the West End precinct, Callista on Park, which will comprise 74 three and four-bedroom apartments.

Since kicking off the development of West Village seven years ago, on the site of the landmark Peter's Ice Cream factory, the $1.2 billion village has&nbsp;won more than 50 awards, the most recent being the&nbsp;internationally renowned 2022 ULI APAC Award for Excellence.

As West Village continues to evolve and grow, it is set to become a thriving hub that seamlessly integrates the past with the present, integrates residential, commercial, retail, and recreational spaces.

At the centre of this 2.6-hectare precinct lie the heritage-listed former Peters Ice Cream factories, a testament to the area's industrial past. West Village will deliver up to 1,200 residences during it's construction phase, along with 20,000 sqm of commercial space, an 18,000 sqm retail precinct, and one hectare of open parklands and heritage laneways.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=207148]

Community is at the heart of West Village, and the precinct comes alive with a variety of events throughout the year. From the annual Brisbane Ice Cream Festival that pays homage to the site's ice cream-making heritage to pizza and pinot evenings, gardening workshops, and fashion events, there's always something abuzz in the village.&nbsp;

Within West Village, residents have access to a range of amenities designed to enhance their everyday lives. The 24/7 Goodlife Health Club, located on Mollison Street, ensures that fitness and well-being are easily accessible. A Woolworths supermarket and BWS bottle shop provide convenient shopping options, while a Terry White Chemist caters to residents' healthcare needs. Additionally, a diverse array of eateries, including Anita Gelato, Ichiban Sushi, Betty's Burgers, Cheeky Poke, Beirut Bazaar, Ippin Japanese Dining, Yamas Greek and Dining, Italian Street Kitchen, and Picnic Cafe, offer a delightful culinary experience within the precinct.

Beyond West Village, residents enjoy a wealth of amenities within easy reach. The bustling Brisbane CBD, located a mere 800 meters away, offers an abundance of retail, dining, health, and wellness services. Just across the road from West Village lies the Boundary Street Precinct, known for its vibrant food and entertainment options. Moreover, the Brisbane River, located nearby, provides a picturesque setting for leisure activities and relaxation.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204877]

Residents of West Village are also in close proximity to several prominent institutions and attractions. The Queensland Performing Arts Centre, a hub for entertainment and culture, is within reach, as are Griffith University, South Bank Parklands, and Brisbane State High School.

Additionally, across the river, one can find Suncorp Stadium, the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital, Brisbane Girls Grammar School, Roma Street Parklands and Station, the Gallery of Modern Art, the State Library and Queensland Art Gallery, Brisbane Convention &amp; Exhibition Centre, Queensland University of Technology, and the Brisbane Botanical Gardens.&nbsp;

Transportation is also a breeze for West Village residents. The proximity to the Airport Bypass ensures easy access for those traveling out of state or abroad, adding an extra layer of convenience.

The diverse range of schools, including West End State Primary School, Brisbane State High School, Somerville House School for Girls, and St. Laurence's College, ensures that families have access to quality education options in the vicinity. The University of the Sunshine Coast, South Bank Campus, TAFE QLD, South Bank Campus, Griffith University, South Bank Campus, James Cook University, Brisbane Campus, Queensland University of Technology, Gardens Point Campus, and the University of Queensland, St Lucia Campus, are also all within reasonable distance, providing ample opportunities for higher education.

With a range of hospitals within a convenient radius, including 11 hospitals offering private, public, and specialised children's services, residents have access to quality medical care, including the nearby Queensland Children's Hospital and St Andrew's Hospital.

West Village: Living heritage village in Brisbane's West End

Sekisui House Australia has just launched a new series within the group’s masterplanned West End precinct, West Village.

Located within the recently launched Allere Collection residences, the Sustainability Series offers a considered and sustainable lifestyle with prices starting from $485,000*.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=205971]

The residences include sustainable features such as hardwood or recycled timber benches, exposed joinery, partially exposed ceilings, select environmentally preferred timber-look flooring, and induction cooktops.

The Allere Collection residents have the benefit of double the amenity with two shared rooftop spaces, where incredible pools, spas, off-leash dog space ‘Paw Pavilion’, and sunset views await.

While the residences within the Sustainability Series don’t come with a car space, residents will have access to two Tesla vehicles to accommodate, in partnership with OhmieGo - although who needs a car when West End achieves a walk score of 99/100.

Situated in arguably one of Brisbane’s most forward thinking and sustainable developments, the new release compliments Sekisui’s vision for the already green precinct.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=205973]

The Six Star Green Star Community, which is Australia’s highest rating for a master planned precinct, boasts a number of sustainable and environmentally friendly practices, including an onsite grey water treatment plant. The grey water (from laundries and showers) is sourced from two of the precinct’s residential buildings, with the treated water then used to irrigate gardens and for flushing toilets in the retail centre.

Food waste measures are also in place across the site, with up to 85 percent of the food waste from the precinct reused or composted.&nbsp;

West Village dining outlets are also encouraged to use take away packaging which can be composted or recycled, with the food waste and compostable packaging from West Village stores and dining outlets then collected and processed through the onsite organic waste pulping system. The Pulpmaster Australia system converts organic materials into soils and fertilisers, minimising the use of water and power during the process.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=205972]

The precinct will also have the ability to generate some of its own energy from the sun, with a 23.5 kW solar power system on the roof of The Eaves building near The Common providing some of the power to light the public spaces, while solar panels on residential buildings provide power to shared building services.

In an urban environment like Brisbane, a “heat island” can be created when materials such as bitumen and concrete absorb and hold the sun’s heat rather than reflect it. To counteract the heat island effect at West Village, around half the site plan is covered with materials which reflect heat, water features or green spaces. Around 100 mature trees and more than 15,000 plants are growing at West Village.

Public bike racks have also been located in several locations at West Village with 1600 set to be available on completion of the project. Four electric vehicle charging stations and a GoGet car share service are located on Basement 1 in the public West Village carpark, which boasts 420 public car parks.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204847]

It's flaura and fauna at West Village.&nbsp;

The Richmond Birdwing Butterfly Vine, species Pararistolochia praevenosa, is grown in several locations at West Village, with the vine being the natural food source for the Richmond Birdwing butterfly, species Ornithoptera richmondia.

The Richmond Birdwing is the largest subtropical Australian butterfly and now unfortunately a vulnerable species. The idea behind growing the Butterfly Vine at West Village is to help increase the population of the butterfly.

West Village is also home to up to seven bee hives, including native stingless bees and European honey bees. The bees help to pollinate the 3,000 native plants at West Village, while playing a role in supporting biodiversity (lots of different types of plants, animals and micro-organisms) in the direct local urban environment.

West Village partners with Brisbane social enterprise group Bee One Third, with their apiarists (bee keepers) utilising traditional beekeeping methods to care for the bee population within the precinct.

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=114215]

Forming part of the Allere Collection, the Sustainability Series will deliver just 12 pared back, humble and flexible residences, with prices starting from $485,000*. 

Sekisui go green with Sustainability Series in Allere, West Village project

Sekisui House Australia has launched its latest stage in its multi-award winning West Village precinct, West End.

The two new vertical communities, Uno and Duo, are part of the Allere Collection, which follows the successful sell-out of the previous building, Altura, part of the 2.6 hectare mixed-use precinct which has revitalized the West End area.

The restoration of the heritage 1920’s Peters Ice Cream Factories lies in the heart of the precinct, which, as well as the surrounding heritage buildings, have now been redeveloped and converted into retail, restaurants. and a health and wellness hub.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204874]

Fronting Mollison Street, Uno and Duo will both rise 20 storeys and bring over 200 residences designed by renowned architects Rothelowman, with Uno and Duo set to be constructed at the same time. The pet friendly vertical communities have been designed to nourish the soul and create a sense of belonging.

Designed with a distinctive sculptured tectonic wall, Uno will comprise 94 residences, along with two levels of commercial space.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204872]

Emblazoned with subtropical greenery which projects outwardly through the generously-sized balconies to the north and south, integrated landscaping will also cover the terraces on the upper levels.&nbsp;

Duo is set to be built above the West Village retail precinct, providing future residents with easy access to everything they need. Duo will home 109 apartments with a bold and classic take on the quintessential Queenslander. There will be a mix of one, two, three, four and five-bedroom residences across the towers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204852]

Residents within the Allere Collection will also have the benefit of enjoying double the amenity, with shared access to both Uno and Duo rooftops.

Crowning the Uno tower will be a pool, enclosed dining space, seating areas, a vegetable garden, conservatory, as well as ‘Paw Pavilion’ - an off leash dog space on the rooftop.&nbsp;Topping Duo will be a pool, heated spa, enclosed lounge room and dining space, along with outdoor barbecue facilities and sun loungers.&nbsp;

West Village, which has been under development since 2016, was recently awarded the internationally renowned 2022 ULI APAC Award for Excellence, with the award adding to the long list the project has amassed over its three short years. It's now racked up more than 40 awards so far.

Sustainability is a key focus at the precinct, with West Village receiving the highest sustainability rating for a master-planned community in Australia, earning World Leadership status with a 6 Star Green Star Communities rating.

Each of the images above are renders of UNO and DUO.

Sekisui launch new stage in West Village, South Brisbane's West End masterplan precinct

The sheer size and clever configuration of Sekisui House Australia&#39;s&nbsp;exclusive penthouse collection in their South Bri​sbane, West Village precinct, puts them&nbsp;among some of the best penthouses the Queensland capital has to offer.

The latest release, crowning the luxury wellness-focused Altura in the vibrant $1.1 billion heritage precinct, will see just two incredible&nbsp;penthouses on level 22, each offering sweeping views back to the CBD, available to buyers.

Altura is the tallest residential offering in the 2.6 hectare masterplan, which Sekisui House Australia began developing&nbsp;in 2016, with the&nbsp;heritage-listed former Peters Ice Cream &amp; Cone factories which lie at the centre of the village.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106960 project_image_fid=170168]

The penthouses designs have been&nbsp;inspired by neuroarchitecture, with an emphasis on interior comfort and biophilic response, and an understanding of the modern family lifestyle.

The most impressive penthouse&nbsp;has an extensive 384 sqm internal floorplate.

Featuring five bedrooms, five living areas, two studies, and a media room. There&#39;s a further 90 sqm of balconies, one off the main open plan kitchen living and dining area, complete with its own outdoor barbecue space, another accessible off two of the bedrooms, and a private third balcony opening from the master bedroom.

<a href="/buildings/altura-west-village-west-end-111-mollison-street-west-end-qld-4101"><img alt="" height="896" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/level22_viewline.jpg" width="1851" /></a>

The master bedroom is more than just a bedroom. It&#39;s more reminiscent of a luxury hotel-style suite. Set quietly at the end of a long corridor away from the main living spaces, the master has its own ensuite with freestanding bath, separate shower, and double vanity, as well as a dressing room-style walk in wardrobe and its own home office room.

That&#39;s one of three dedicated home office areas in the apartment, with carefully located studies&nbsp;dotted throughout.

The kitchen features its own butler&#39;s pantry and luxury stone island benchtops. A second living area is cleverly broken up from the main space by a two-way, floor-to-ceiling fireplace. There&#39;s also four parking spaces that come with the penthouse.

<a href="/buildings/altura-west-village-west-end-111-mollison-street-west-end-qld-4101"><img alt="" height="690" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-02-16_at_12.15.43_pm.png" width="1375" /></a>

Megan Barron, Project Executive Director of&nbsp;Sales, Marketing and Public Relations at&nbsp;West Village, said the latest penthouse collection is the largest and most impressive release to date.

&ldquo;This really is a rare opportunity to live in a true heritage listed precinct which is just 800m from the Brisbane CBD,&quot; Barron said.

&quot;The extensive balcony space allows families of any size to unwind while watching the sunset over the city and the river.&quot;

Barron said people have been moving to&nbsp; West Village because they want to be surrounded by a vibrant community with a thriving retail and dining precinct on their doorstep.

&quot;Altura residences sold out in record time &ndash; a strong endorsement of our community and the lifestyle West Village offers,&quot; Barron added.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106960 project_image_fid=185878]

West End is tied as the sixth most walkable neighbourhood in Brisbane, boasting a walk score of 88, along with the blue-chip suburbs of Teneriffe and New Farm.&nbsp;West Village boasts a premium walk score of 99, making it one of the most desirable places to live in West End.

The Altura building&nbsp;was designed with a focus&nbsp;on residents&#39;&nbsp;health and wellbeing, with the communal rooftop &#39;Wellness Regeneration Zone&#39; a particular highlight.

Not just a communal rooftop with amenity,&nbsp;Matthew Durning, Principle Landscape Architect at RPS Landscaping, said there&#39;s different elements that relate to the senses, especially in the vegetation.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106960 project_image_fid=190673]

&quot;Rosemary and lavender plants heighten the smell as residents move out to the rooftop,&quot; Durning says.

The aim of the rooftop, aptly titled the Wellness Regeneration Zone, was to create a space for residents to unwind both physically and mentally.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106960 project_image_fid=190674]

There will be a&nbsp;fitness infinity pool as well as a heated magnesium plunge pool, a detoxifying sauna,&nbsp;sunken fire pit spaces and an outdoor kitchen.

When construction is completed, forecast for early 2023, there will be weekly rooftop yoga and tai chi classes on the roof, surrounded by the 600 sqm of lush landscaped gardens.

Situated in the heart of Parramatta’s growing urban village West Village sits alongside skyscrapers such as Altitude, Skyrise and the soon to be completed 4 Parramatta Square. The enviable location has been a hit among buyers who have been drawn to the area due to the prolific infrastructure projects set to commence within the area to cater to Parramatta’s growing population.

West Village is EcoWorld International’s first Australian project, with Yarra One in Melbourne also currently under construction and set to top out by February 2020.
