A collection of just 25 large-format apartments and penthouses overlooking Goodwin Park is entering the Coolangatta market, with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/marea-residences-coolangatta-27-27a-dixon-street-coolangatta-qld-4225">Maréa Residences</a> combining a low-density, residential-only approach with uninterrupted park and Pacific Ocean outlooks.

Located at 27 Dixon Street, Maréa comprises three and four-bedroom residences alongside a limited number of dual-level penthouses, with the project positioned between Goodwin Park and <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/coolangatta-qld-4225">Coolangatta</a>’s coastal precinct.

Construction has commenced, with completion currently estimated for late 2027. Three-bedroom residences are priced from $1.8 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150999 project_image_fid=374005]

The project has been designed around its northern outlook across the park, with the building’s architecture, landscaping and material palette intended to establish a connection with the neighbouring green space. The residences have been configured to maximise natural light and views across Goodwin Park towards the ocean.

Inside, the material palette incorporates timber, stone and brushed brass, complemented by curved detailing and ambient lighting. Kitchens and bathrooms carry the same natural material approach, while residences also include basement parking, storage and lift access.

Maréa’s penthouses are arranged over two levels and include private pools, adding another layer to the project’s focus on larger-format apartment living. Across the development, residences are configured with three or four bedrooms rather than the broader mix of smaller apartment types commonly found in larger projects.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150999 project_image_fid=374010]

Resident amenity is concentrated at rooftop level, where landscaped entertaining terraces and pools take advantage of elevated views across Coolangatta and the Pacific Ocean.

The project has so far been particularly well received by local owner-occupiers and downsizers, according to Urban Activation Property Sales and Marketing Director Matt George, with the residential-only format, construction quality and northern park outlook among the features resonating with purchasers.

“The uninterrupted northern aspect overlooking Goodwin Park has been a key point of difference, with buyers attracted to the sense of serenity and open space the park provides, while still enjoying easy access to the ocean and being within walking distance of the lifestyle and amenities Coolangatta has to offer,” George said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150999 project_image_fid=374002]

“The combination of high-quality construction, a residential-only building, park outlook and proximity to the beach has resonated strongly with the local downsizer market.”

The Dixon Street address is within walking distance of Coolangatta Beach and the broader southern Gold Coast coastline, including the surf breaks at Snapper Rocks and Kirra. Coolangatta’s cafés, restaurants and retail are nearby, while Gold Coast Airport is also within close proximity.

Melbourne developer PDG has secured Victorian Government approval for its $1.5 billion Southbank development <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-one-1-queens-bridge-street-southbank-vic-3006">The One</a>, clearing the way for the long-dormant riverfront site opposite Crown to finally be developed.

The Minister for Planning has approved the project at 1-29 Queens Bridge Street, with the Department of Transport and Planning issuing the planning permit following its assessment.

The approval will allow PDG to develop the prominent 5,059 sqm site with a major mixed-use tower comprising premium apartments, including branded residences, a luxury hotel and boutique office space.

PDG acquired the site in late 2024, with its position directly opposite Crown's main entrance and near Melbourne's Arts Precinct making it one of Southbank's most significant remaining development opportunities.

<img alt="PDG" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3933013e-6332-4386-b9be-089df05caf17" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-27%20at%209.29.22%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=sITIgBqDL0N3VNSMwWEmF5UA.uvcsRyu" />

Designed by COX in collaboration with ODO and PDG, the tower's architecture draws on the movement of the Yarra River, with six vertical pleats running the height of the sculpted facade.

The project will also see the heritage-listed Queens Bridge Hotel restored and incorporated into the development&nbsp;with new hospitality and public uses, including a rooftop venue.

A significant component of The One will be its residential amenity.

More than 5,000 sqm of resident facilities will be delivered across a single level, making it one of the largest consolidated residential amenity offerings proposed in an Australian apartment development.

The planning approval also incorporates a major upgrade of Queensbridge Square, which PDG will deliver in partnership with the City of Melbourne.

<img alt="PDG" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="73167fcd-1031-4b6f-a408-a064cfe45ed1" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-27%20at%209.29.17%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=Pf1AEWxw6SNmBqR0zQW5lyEze.MtxgFp" />

The existing square will be revitalised as a new civic and pedestrian space along the Yarra River, strengthening the connection between the project, Southbank and the riverfront.

PDG Founder and Managing Director Vince Giuliano said the approval represented a major milestone for a site which has remained largely underutilised for more than 15 years.

“This is the most significant Planning Permit approval Melbourne has seen in recent years,” Giuliano said.

“For more than 15 years, this site has remained underutilised. This approval enables us to deliver a project that will contribute meaningfully to the revitalisation of Southbank, restore and reactivate an important heritage building, and create a new civic and hospitality destination for Melbourne.”

The latest approval follows an earlier planning permit issued by the City of Melbourne covering demolition works across part of the site at 9-29 Queens Bridge Street. Those demolition and early works are already underway.

PDG has also started generating early interest in the residential component from owner-occupiers ahead of a planned public launch in early 2027.

PDG secures approval for $1.5bn Southbank apartment development, The One

Local developer Harridan is seeking to turn its Woolloongabba apartment project into the first stage of a broader transformation of Burke Street, using a new 16-storey mixed-use building to establish a greener pedestrian connection toward the rapidly evolving Boggo Road transport and knowledge precinct.

The South East Queensland developer has filed plans for 154 apartments on the <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/4-burke-street-woolloongabba-qld-4102">southern side of Burke Street</a>, where its proposal has been designed alongside a wider vision by LatStudios for the street.

That vision positions the southern side of Burke Street for buildings of 15 storeys and above, while envisaging lower-rise development of up to five storeys on the northern side to transition into Woolloongabba's existing character housing. It also proposes wider pedestrian verges, deep planting, new street trees and upgrades to the pedestrian approach to Boggo Road Station.

The Harridan development itself has been designed by Brisbane-based Arqus Design and will comprise 154 apartments across 16 storeys. The mix is weighted heavily toward two-bedroom apartments, with 121 proposed alongside 10 one-bedroom and 23 three-bedroom residences. There will typically be around 14 units per floor.

A lower-ground car park and three podium levels will accommodate 156 resident parking spaces, along with visitor and commercial parking. There will also be 154 resident bicycle spaces and 40 visitor bicycle parks.

&nbsp;

Harridan is a family-owned developer and part of the Holmwood Highgate Group, with more than three decades of development activity across South East Queensland. Its portfolio spans residential, commercial and industrial property, with current residential projects including Riverbank on Byron in Bulimba, Esperance Residences in Carina and The Precinct at Kinross Road in Thornlands.

Wooloongabba has been popular for apartment developers, particularly since the announcement of the 2032 Summer Olympics games in Brisbane.

While there have been a lot of development applications, it has failed to materialize into real supply.&nbsp;

Sarazin has been the major player in the area. They are under construction at Murcia Residences, on the fringe of East Brisbane and Woolloongabba. They have just launched <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-stanley-residences-woolloongabba-8-trafalgar-street-woolloongabba-qld-4102">The Stanley Residences</a>, in Woolloongabba on Trafalagar Street. They also have Nuage coming soon on the nearby <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/nuage-woolloongabba-14-wellington-road-woolloongabba-qld-4102">Wellington Road</a>.

	Just three double-storey Sky Homes sit at the top of The Waterline, each with its own private marina berth and rooftop terrace.
	</li>
	<li>
	Construction on The Waterline is complete, with the first residents expected to move in from mid-October.
	</li>
	<li>

<hr />
Lewis Land has opened the first completed sky home for inspection at Harbour Shores, giving buyers their first opportunity to step inside one of just three double-storey residences crowning The Waterline.

Each sky home comes with its own private marina berth, rooftop terrace and Broadwater views, combining the scale of a larger home with direct access to the boating lifestyle that underpins the wider <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/harbour-shores-biggera-waters-564-oxley-drive-biggera-waters-qld-4216">Harbour Shores</a> masterplan.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113271 project_image_fid=366708]

Lewis Land Head of Development Michael Long said the inclusion of a berth with every Sky Home had become increasingly valuable as marina access across the Gold Coast tightened.

“Marina berths are becoming increasingly difficult to secure across the Gold Coast, so including one with every Sky Home makes this a genuinely rare offering,” Long said.

“The private 70-berth marina will accommodate boats up to 12 metres in length and is positioned just 2.5 kilometres from the Broadwater, placing the open ocean only 15 minutes away.

“Being able to step out of your home onto your boat is a rare luxury, and it’s something residents here can look forward to when it opens later this year.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113271 project_image_fid=366709]

The display opening comes as construction completes on The Waterline, with the first residents expected to move in from mid-October.

The three Sky Homes range from 282 sqm to 367 sqm and each feature three bedrooms, three bathrooms, multiple living zones, expansive kitchens with butler's pantries and large balconies taking in the Broadwater outlook.

Each residence also has three secure basement car spaces and additional storage.

“This is the first opportunity the Gold Coast has had to step into Harbour Shores and see, touch and feel what we’re bringing to life here,” Long said.

“There are only three Sky Homes within The Waterline, ranging in size from 282sqm to 367sqm, with each residence featuring three large bedrooms, three bathrooms, multiple living zones, expansive custom-built kitchens with butler’s pantry, and large balconies capturing Broadwater views.”

<img alt="Harbour Shores" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="bab65e10-4fab-45e1-92d8-fc56e2ab98ff" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%202.00.16%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=XT8q76LsPkw3cYTsvN3JfFDaPLud90PN" />

Residents of The Waterline will have access to a private pool, along with Harbour Shores' wider collection of amenity including a lagoon pool, social clubhouse, tennis court, gym, yoga facilities and sauna.

Lewis Land partnered with Studio Collective to furnish the completed display, with the interiors designed to demonstrate how the residences could function as permanent homes rather than simply as show apartments.

Studio Collective Director Melissa Park said the surrounding waterways informed the interiors, but in a more restrained way than a traditional coastal scheme.

“We drew inspiration from the canals and coastal surrounds, but our approach was to interpret that subtly through layered materials and a grounded palette of earthy tones, rather than literal coastal references,” Park said.

“We introduced hero moments of green and teal to reference the surrounding waterways, while mirrored elements help reflect natural light.

“The result is a residence that feels elevated yet comfortable, somewhere buyers can genuinely imagine themselves living, entertaining and unwinding.”

Sky Homes are priced from $3.65 million.

Lewis Land is also offering private marina berths with The Residences, its limited collection of three and four-bedroom villas positioned directly along the Harbour Shores waterfront boardwalk.

Three-bedroom villas are priced from $2.99 million, while four-bedroom residences start from $3.19 million.

Harbour Shores is being marketed by Colliers International.

St Vincent de Paul Society Housing Australia has filed plans for a major mixed-use housing precinct on the southern edge of the North Sydney CBD, adding another significant proposal to a pocket around North Sydn​ey Station that is quickly becoming one of the LGA's busiest development zones.

The State Significant Development Application covers a 5,990 sqm site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/1-19-mackenzie-street-lavender-bay-nsw-2060">1-19 MacKenzie Street and 211 Blues Point Road in Lavender Bay</a>, immediately south of Nor​th Sydney Station and between the commercial core and the lower-rise Lavender Bay Heritage Conservation Area.

Designed by Wardle, the proposal would deliver a new residential tower comprising 88 build-to-sell apartments and 19 affordable apartments, alongside a separate co-living building with 57 rooms and a building manager's studio.

It would also see the significant restoration and upgrade of St Francis Xavier Catholic Church, the adaptive reuse of the former school building, new parish facilities, retail, a new public square and around 1,000 sqm of publicly accessible open space.

<img alt="Vinnies North Sydney" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d5dd7f87-a617-463e-b577-17541e01f0e9" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-26%20at%209.10.13%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=4R8TsFN3P_LrrXO2HswTOIrx2blil8lh" />

The project is seeking a concurrent rezoning of the site to R4 High Density Residential and an increase in the maximum building height to allow a tower reaching RL120, or up to 20 storeys. The proposal was progressed through the NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority pathway.

The build-to-sell component will be weighted toward larger apartments, with just six one-bedroom apartments compared with 31 two-beds, 43 three-beds and eight four-bedroom residences.

The 19 affordable apartments will comprise two studios, 15 one-bedroom apartments and two two-bedroom apartments, taking the total apartment component to 107 residences before the 58 co-living rooms are included.

<img alt="Vnnies" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="7d568ca5-cb90-4e18-96c6-d9795dba0c56" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-26%20at%209.10.05%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=GY2R5M9VtQh0EKy1vajaea19PSLOPuRD" />

Wardle's design for the Vinnies site has sought to negotiate that emerging high-rise context while retaining the lower-scale character of MacKenzie Street and the adjoining heritage conservation area.

The main building adopts a three-storey podium and tower arrangement, with the podium aligned to the ridgeline and front setback of St Francis Xavier Church.&nbsp;Wardle has designed the podium with colonnades, seating, recessed entries and active ground-floor frontages, with sandstone-toned precast concrete and face brick referencing the materiality of the existing church.

The tower then steps back eight metres to the south and six metres to the north before rising in a sculpted form comprising four interlocking quadrants. Wardle has also introduced rounded forms and chamfered corners to reduce the tower's perceived bulk and improve view sharing with neighbouring development sites.

Resident facilities and outdoor areas are planned at the separation between the podium and tower at Level 3, oriented toward Sydney Harbour and the CBD skyline.

The tower itself will feature a glass reinforced concrete facade, with recessed balconies and deep reveals used both to provide shading and privacy and frame views toward the harbour and city. The lower levels take a different architectural approach, using brick and sandstone-toned finishes intended to establish a stronger relationship with St Francis Xavier Church. The Church itself will be conserved and upgraded for its continued use, while the former school building will be adaptively reused as part of the co-living component.

<img alt="Lavendar Bay" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2d4418ad-90aa-4d49-af93-c80b140aea80" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-26%20at%209.09.47%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=Kv4gzbsACaGvZSRuaqcfGC54jEJRXIDJ" />

&nbsp;

The proposal adds to an increasingly concentrated pipeline of residential development around Blue Street, MacKenzie Street and Lavender Bay.

Just west of the site, Central Element lodged plans earlier this year for one of the most significant residential developments proposed in Lavender Bay in recent years.

Central Element's SJB-designed scheme at 64-66 Lavender Street and 3-7 Middlemiss Street would deliver 163 apartments across two towers rising 23 and 32 storeys, replacing five existing apartment buildings containing 32 homes. The project also forms part of the Housing Delivery Authority pathway.

Immediately around North Sy​dney Station, another two significant proposals have emerged at 5 and 15 Blue Street.

Zurich Australian Insurance Properties is seeking to adaptively reuse its longstanding commercial building at 5 Blue Street, directly above North Sydney Station, rather than demolishing the structure.

Its SSDA proposes converting the building into a 14-storey mixed-use development with 62 apartments and 86 co-living rooms, together with ground-floor retail and a major refurbishment of Blue Street Plaza. The application is currently at the Response to Submissions stage.

Yarra's Edge

ASX-listed developer Mirvac have consciously taken luxury up a level at their latest Yarra's Edge apartment tower, Trielle.

Trielle's prime location along the north-facing bank of the Yarra River is truly unrepeatable. Just 12.5 metres from the water's edge, it provides views of the city skyline, the Yarra River and Port Phillip Bay. The proximity to bustling Collins Street and the emerging Fishermans Bend precinct ensures residents will enjoy the best of both worlds – urban convenience and tranquil riverside living.

The soaring 45 level tower opposite Point Park, offers some of the largest apartments in the $1.2 billion Yarra's Edge masterplan, which Mirvac began developing in 1994.&nbsp;

Michael Wiener, Mirvac Design Director said “There is a beautiful story behind Trielle, being the jewel in the Yarra’s Edge crown and this beauty is subtly embedded in the design, detailing and materiality of the Sub-Penthouse Collection.

“With breathtaking north-facing views across the river – Trielle sits in the dress circle of Melbourne’s waterfront. Marina YE, Fishermans Bend, Port Phillip Bay – this is Melbourne’s future, and Trielle is a central figure," Wiener said.&nbsp;

One of the most prestigious offerings in the development is the Sub-Penthouse Collection. Buyers have the option to be positioned sky high within the tower or closer to the water in&nbsp;the podium, benefitting from a north or north-east facing orientation, each adjoining to spacious balconies that span from 26 sqm to 59 sqm.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211506]

Victor Wong, Senior Associate, Mirvac Design said “The Sub-Penthouse Collection has been oriented to maximise Trielle’s northern aspect and proximity to the Yarra River, as well as the view down Collins Street to the city.

"Designed to create different zones, the oversized sub-penthouses allow for both privacy and connection with friends or family."

"These residences will be a regenerative place to live, comprising a series of interconnecting flowing spaces giving residents the ultimate flexibility to craft their own living masterpiece," Wong said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211518]

Offering three bedrooms with the option of a fourth or a media room in the tower and three bedroom dual-level floorplans in the podium, these residences redefine spaciousness and elegance. Hotel-like in their quality, every feature and finish is a subtle tribute to the Yarra River, which serves as both muse and backdrop for Trielle's opulent lifestyle.

"The extensive use of bespoke joinery, premium natural stone and sparkling surfaces continue the narrative from external architecture to interior architecture.&nbsp;Reflecting the natural beauty of this precious diamond, the materials add a natural warmth, elegance, and sophistication to the Trielle living experience.” Wiener said.

The kitchens in the sub-penthouses are a visual and practical masterpiece, featuring faceted stone island benches adorned with soft LED lighting, and premium appliances including Bora, Gaggenau and Wolf.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211512]

The scullery is equipped with premium appliances including a steam oven, speed oven, warming drawer, Gaggenau coffee machine and a dishwasher.

Generous ceiling heights and floor-to-ceiling windows amplify the feeling of grandeur and space, while chevron timber floors add warmth and sophistication to the living spaces. The sub-penthouses also include a built-in TV unit and bar, complete with Sub-Zero wine fridge.

The master retreats are nothing short of palatial. The ensuite bathrooms exude the opulence of a world-class luxury hotel, with fluted shower screens, heated towel rails, and a freestanding jewel-like bath and basins custom designed by Apaiser. Exquisite timber veneer joinery in the walk-in robes and dressing room add to the sense of luxury and offer the perfect showcase for your finest clothes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=223268]

Trielle offers two distinct colour schemes, "Luminosa" with its light, contemporary hues inspired by the river’s play of light, and "Inchiostro", favouring dramatic, seductive shades reminiscent of the night sky. The choices allow residents to personalise their living spaces to match their unique styles.

Sub-penthouse residents will also benefit from a range of amenities within Trielle, designed to offer a new standard for living well.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211525]

The Oasis, on Level 7 is a lush oasis of tranquillity featuring approximately 1,700 sqm of verdant landscaped urban rainforest with a trickling stream, a 25-metre pool and spa, a day spa treatment room, hot magnesium pool, cold-pail contrast treatment, Yoga and Pilates studio and a biophilic gym.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211523]

The ground floor level of Trielle is the home of The Biblioteca – a library with business-class work pods, as well as the Mills Place dedicated offices for maximising productivity; The Saletta resident lounge; and The Salone riverfront piano lounge – designed to rival Melbourne’s best loved jazz clubs and bars.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211503]

Further resident amenity includes a golf simulator studio, cinema room, games room with Teppanyaki outdoor dining and a concierge service.

Trielle also embraces sustainability with its fully electric building and EV charging stations, ensuring that residents can live comfortably while contributing to a greener future.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=212015]

You can be part of this coveted riverfront precinct with one, two, three, and four-bedroom residences now selling. The Trielle Display Galleria is now open – book an appointment to experience Melbourne’s new pinnacle of luxury firsthand.

Trielle by Mirvac Sub-Penthouse Collection: Melbourne’s new pinnacle of luxury

Mirvac has been developing residential property across Australia for over five decades.

A huge focus in the last decade has been sustainability, which they've championed through their This Changes Everything initiative, while most recently the ASX-listed developer has diversified their portfolio by developing in the build to rent sector.

A key area of focus for Mirvac in recent years is how the end user will not only enjoy their apartment, but how much the development can cater for a resident's lifestyle.

Their latest apartment tower, Trielle at Yarra's Edge, the most highly coveted and exclusive residential tower in Mirvac's $1.2 billion masterplan on the Docklands waterfront, is arguably Mirvac's most facility-fuelled project to date.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=212014]

Residents technically wouldn't have to leave the tower, with extensive facilities for both work and play.

There's are two spaces dedicated to working from home, The Biblioteca and The Mills Place Work From Home Pods. The Biblioteca, a library designed for peaceful reading and quiet work, occupies a quiet corner of Trielle overlooking the Promenade Grove.

The Mills Place Work From Home Pods are located on the ground floor and cater for further work, with dedicated office spaces and work pods, both available to book for either a few hours or a full day.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211500]

That's the 9-5 covered, and there's even more amenity for outside of work hours, or even a lunchtime given they can be just a lift away from the office.

Arguably the most impressive inclusion on Trielle's long amenity list is The Oasis Wellness Club, a verdant urban rainforest with a trickling stream located seven stories above the Yarra's Edge promenade.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=211523]

Designed in collaboration with renowned luxury spa expert Naomi Gregory, The Oasis offers a blissful, Scandinavian-inspired wellness club.

Residents can regularly indulge in rejuvenating treatments such as facials, massages, and hydrotherapy, providing a tranquil and resort-like atmosphere.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=216205]

Part of The Oasis is a biophilic gym, complete with state-of-the-art equipment, a yoga and pilates room, and a sauna.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=216206]

Trielle also caters for post-work vibes. One of the most indulgent areas for this is&nbsp;The Salone Piano Bar.

The intimate space, with richly textured interiors and a north-facing riverfront view, sits just 14 metres from the river's edge and invites residents to unwind while listening to the sounds of a self-playing piano.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114216 project_image_fid=212015]

Adjacent to the Piano Lounge is the Chef's Table dining room, which sets the stage for elegant dinner parties.

It features a striking natural stone table and an impressive wine fridge. Residents can book the space through the dedicated concierge service.

A theatre room, golf simulator, a sunken fire pit area, and even a dedicated dog wash bay, complete the amenity.

How Mirvac is championing resident amenity at Trielle apartments in Melbourne's Yarra's Edge precinct

Mirvac has officially launched Trielle, it's last residential tower in their $1.4 billion Yarra's Edge masterplan precinct on the Docklands waterfront.

Mirvac launches Trielle at busy weekend display opening

ASX-listed developer Mirvac has revealed its $350 million luxury residential tower, Trielle, the tallest building to be introduced to their multi-award-winning Yarra’s Edge community in Melbourne.

Formerly referred to as Tower 9, the 45-level tower will be the jewel in the crown of the vibrant precinct, commanding an unrepeatable waterfront position on the Collins Street axis of Melbourne, just 12.5 metres from the Yarra River.

Trielle will feature the most abundant amenity offered to date.

Residents will have access to a library and work pods, the Saletta Business Lounge, a piano bar with self-playing piano, a&nbsp;wine cellar, games room and cocktail bar, theatre, and a golf simulator.

There's also the Oasis Retreat, complete with&nbsp;urban rainforest gardens, a Scandinavian-inspired wellness centre, 25-metre pool, magnesium pool, spa, sauna, cold-pailing and treatment rooms.

<img alt="Trielle" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="40b1ab35-52e2-4acf-b3e2-35e25ebe09cf" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-12-19%20at%2012.05.30%20pm.png?VersionId=2syZpjAGjF.aSJ4e0r51kb5_aubXLj2m" />

Mirvac’s announcement follows planning amendment approval received earlier this year, with Mirvac’s General Manager, Residential Development Victoria, Elysa Anderson, saying the upcoming launch in 2023 of Trielle demonstrated prospective purchasers’ ongoing appetite for premium, lifestyle-focused apartments.

“Market vacancy across the east coast residential market has fallen to around 1.5%, new apartment starts are at lowest levels seen since 20122 , and with the recent increase of permanent migration caps, we are seeing an acceleration in population growth, Anderson says.

"Discerning buyers are acting decisively in the tightening market to secure quality, larger apartments setting themselves up for future growth.

“In particular we are seeing demand from customers that are wanting to downsize – especially when presented with a compelling value proposition like Trielle, in a location with so much going for it.”

Anderson said Trielle will likely appeal to a broad owner-occupier demographic, most predominantly the right-sizer buyers looking for a new lifestyle offering, close to the city, with unrivalled amenity. Anderson is anticipating out-of-towners looking for a city base, and experienced apartment dwellers looking to upgrade, to make up a good portion of demand.

<img alt="Trielle 2" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="81af8803-29d9-4a03-8fb5-76038b78bec5" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-12-19%20at%2012.05.40%20pm.png?VersionId=U45uaf2yXJ6SrSLiVatI7Z4TAFMua5L0" />

“Our highly anticipated Trielle tower will deliver a legacy project to our vibrant waterfront precinct and draws on our 50 years of experience to offer a new level of prestige and sophistication in apartment living in a location like nothing else in Melbourne,” Anderson added.

With architecture and interiors by Mirvac’s award-winning in-house design team, Mirvac Design,&nbsp;Trielle tower will combine its exclusive location and north-facing riverfront orientation, with 191 apartments, a nine-level podium, ground-level retail space and above-ground parking.

The all-electric tower has also been designed to go beyond current sustainable building codes and will evolve under construction, with a centralised electric heat pump hot water system, rainwater and stormwater storage and reuse and induction cooktops as standard.

Mirvac Design Director, Michael Wiener, said the tower was “jewel-like” in appearance, faceted like a gem, with an angular glazed façade to reflect light and “shine like a diamond.

“Trielle offers riverside rarity and timeless luxury with impeccable craftmanship,” Wiener said.

“The design hinges on the waterfront aspect of Trielle, its view of the city and its commanding presence on the city’s skyline. There is no other site like it in Melbourne that brings together the city, the river and the sky in such a striking way.

<img alt="Trielle 3" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="261078d6-8cdb-4492-ba95-2d352e542a33" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-12-19%20at%2012.05.35%20pm.png?VersionId=0VtW2DjRaG0Dr1XsWh32EOpPNcgKEV4x" />

“Trielle will create breathtaking moments for residents, evoking a response of pride of ownership. Residents will be proud that they are a part of something truly beautiful and unique.”

Trielle’s landscape design will flow from the promenade and through the building, creating an ‘urban forest’ at Yarra’s Edge, that is continued throughout the building’s common areas.

“Trielle’s amenity is focused on making time for wellness,” Mr Wiener said. “The level of luxury and amenity is unprecedented, with a particular focus on celebrating life’s most precious commodity – time – freeing residents up to make time for what matters most, their health and wellbeing.”

Trielle will join Mirvac’s impressive Victorian apartments portfolio, which encompasses Voyager at Yarra’s Edge, The Eastbourne’s luxury residences in East Melbourne, and the recently topped-out Forme at Apartments of Tullamore in Doncaster.

Yarra’s Edge is a coveted 14.5-hectare inner-city waterfront community located on the north-facing bank of the Yarra River that has been developed by Mirvac for more than 20 years.

Now home to over 3,000 residents, Yarra’s Edge is anticipated to include 2,300 dwellings once complete. Designed around wellbeing, Yarra’s Edge already features extensive parkland, state-of-the-art health and fitness facilities at Wharf Club and a marina, with future plans for a boutique retail hub to serve the local community, the broader Fishermans Bend, and Docklands catchment areas.

Expressions of interest are now being registered for Trielle by Mirvac, with the official launch planned for early 2023 and construction anticipated to commence in mid to late 2023.&nbsp;

First look: Mirvac reveal Yarra's Edge tallest tower, Trielle

Sales in Voyager, the apartment tower in Mirvac&#39;s Yarra&#39;s Edge precinct in Melbourne, have taken off in 2021.

The first half of 2021 saw 20 per cent more sales in the recently completed building compared to the same time last year, with&nbsp;owner-occupiers accounting for 78 percent of purchasers over the period.

Mirvac General Manager for Residential Victoria, Elysa Anderson, said buyers were drawn to the luxury apartments, exceptional amenity and beautiful waterfront living Yarra&rsquo;s Edge has to offer.

&quot;Downsizers from regional and interstate locations are looking for a base closer to their families, while experienced local apartment dwellers are seizing the opportunity to upgrade their home and lifestyle at an inner-city location,&rdquo;&nbsp;Anderson said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3494 project_image_fid=167751]

The 130-metre Voyager tower features interiors and architecture by the award-winning Mirvac Design team, including a striking bronzed curved fa&ccedil;ade that reflects the changing lights of the sun as it moves on its daily journey, creating a gateway to Melbourne from the Bolte Bridge.

Comprising 310 apartments including artist and home-office apartments, luxury residences and Sky Residences, Voyager currently has a limited number of one, two&nbsp;and three-bedroom residences available, starting from $601,500.

Voyager residents have access to an inspiring art gallery in the striking lobby, along with an exclusive residents-only rooftop space on level 43, the first of its kind in the precinct.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3494 project_image_fid=180328]

The rooftop includes three distinct zones &ndash; a social barbecue area with indoor and outdoor dining, a lawn for contemplative practice such as yoga, and an open-air lounge with fire pit for relaxing and socialising. It also features a bar, theatre, and karaoke room.

&ldquo;Mirvac&rsquo;s unique end-to-end in-house capabilities have allowed us to effectively navigate the challenges associated with the COVID-19 construction restrictions to complete this next chapter in the development of Yarra&rsquo;s Edge on schedule,&quot; Anderson noted.

&quot;Our customer-first approach enabled us to remain flexible, with a number of purchasers choosing to amalgamate apartments to form larger residences, and we are pleased to be welcoming the first residents into this incredible precinct with some requesting to settle early.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3494 project_image_fid=180330]

Voyager is walking distance to state-of-the-art health and fitness facilities available at the nearby Wharf Club, which boasts a pool, spa, steam room, gym, fitness facilities and caf&eacute;, all housed underneath and grass roof that flows into Wharf&rsquo;s Landing Park &ndash; a 1,500 sqm&nbsp;green open space.

A 1,000 sqm retail hub is also proposed for the precinct, which is anticipated to service both the local community and the broader Fishermans Bend and Docklands catchment area.

Over 3000 residents already call Yarra&#39;s Edge home.

Demand spikes in 2021 for Mirvac's  recently completed Yarra's Edge apartment tower, Voyager, now 82% sold

Mirvac&#39;s ninth tower, in its award-winning Yarra&#39;s Edge community in Melbourne, is hoping to be more tailored to the owner-occupier.

The ASX-listed national property developer are proposing to reconfigure&nbsp;the apartment layouts to drop the number of apartments. The yet-to-be-named Tower Nine&nbsp;is set to be the tallest apartment building in the precinct.

There will now be one extra level, taking the number of levels to 45. That has brought in an extra three bedroom apartment on that level, after the rooftop plan and equipment space was rationalised.

Mirvac has dropped the number of apartments, from 222 to 191, creating larger apartments to meet the latest&nbsp;Apartment Design Guidelines and market expectations. &nbsp;&nbsp;

&quot;We have generally increased the size of the apartments throughout the building, catering more towards larger apartments for the owner occupier market,&quot; a Mirvac spokesperson told Urban.

There will now be 50 one-beds, taking up 27 per cent of the building, and 80 two-bedroom apartments, which make up the bulk of the building of 44 per cent. Now the three-bedroom plus apartments has 29 per cent of the building.

Mirvac General Manager for Residential Victoria, Elysa Anderson, says that the tower 9&nbsp;visioning and subsequent planning application follows the success of Voyager, the most recently completed apartment tower in Yarra&#39;s Edge, as well as buildings Phoenix, Folia and FORME at Apartments of Tullamore in Doncaster.

&ldquo;We are seeing continued resilience in the Melbourne property market, with Voyager receiving strong demand from owner occupiers for quality apartments, supported by exceptional amenity,&quot; Anderson said.

&quot;We plan to launch the highly anticipated tower 9 building in the second half of 2022 and expect it will continue to attract purchasers searching for luxury apartments at the premium end of the market.

&ldquo;This spectacular building is planned to rise from the bank of the river creating a new legacy for Yarra&rsquo;s Edge and a new icon on Melbourne&rsquo;s skyline, with its enviable location at the end of the Collins Street axis.

&quot;The building will deliver an experience that fuses the future of luxury living in harmony with lush green tranquil spaces, connecting residents with nature and promoting a sense of health and wellbeing.

&quot;The design and luxury specification of tower 9 will transcend that of any of the award-winning towers that have come before it at Yarra&rsquo;s Edge,&rdquo;&nbsp;Anderson.

Mirvac Head of Residential, Stuart Penklis, says that tower 9 reinforces Mirvac&rsquo;s confidence in the Victorian apartment market as the state looks to ease restrictions further over the coming months.

&ldquo;Mirvac is focused on accelerating our supply of high-quality apartments in Victoria as we anticipate there will be a shortage of owner occupier residences in premium locations in the future,&quot; Penklis said.

&quot;The strength of the established housing market and the opening up of international borders will continue to drive very strong demand for well-designed and quality constructed apartments just like Voyager and tower 9,&rdquo;

Mirvac&#39;s latest tower completion in Yarra&#39;s Edge is Voyager, the 130-metre, 43-level tower of 310 apartments.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3494 project_image_fid=180330]

Sales at Voyager increase by 20 percent in the first half of 2021 compared to the same time last year, with owner-occupiers accounting for 78 percent of purchasers over that period.

According to John Carfi the remainder of the building was finished to a standard that would rival many penthouses in the city, with the Hess touch raising the bar for the entire project.

The 39-storey tower has been designed by the Mirvac team, headed up by Mirvac’s Design Director Julian Venning, to capture the movement of the surrounding river. A rooftop sculpture crowns the building, creating a strong architectural statement when peering down the Flinders Street axis of the city as it pairs up with Tower V, forming the King and Queen of Yarra's Edge.

With dwellings ranging from one to three bedroom apartments, plus multi-storey terrace homes offering townhouse-style living, Yarra Point was designed to offer a range of living solutions.

Significant research went into designing the building’s north-facing aspect and ensuring each and every apartment benefited from this exposure. This award is fantastic recognition of Yarra Point’s intelligent design as well as the success of the entire Yarra’s Edge precinct, which offers Melbourne’s best waterside living lifestyle, just minutes from the CBD.

Produced by Mirvac's in-house design team, the complex includes a 300 square metre rooftop garden, residents’ lounge, gym and business centre. Taking centre stage within the two level lobby is a cluster of mature trees and garden plus bluestone paving creating a continuance from that found outside.

Mirvac have a reputation for delivering high quality urban developments and the quality within Yarra's Edge is no exception. Given the shape and inherent complexities of the precinct itself one wonders how the area would be judged from an urban planning and landscape perspective?

As good as Yarra Point is, equally as encouraging is the introduction of green space between waterfront and tower; a methodology that is lacking elsewhere in the precinct and may to a degree aid in the general lack of foot traffic in the area.

Long and thin, the precinct is bound at present by industrial use to the south and water to the north; the forthcoming Fishermans Bend precinct should aid in generating increased foot traffic into Yarra's Edge. Will they like what they see on the ground plane though?

Precinct-wide questions aside Apartments.com.au has walked through Yarra Point; it's totally understandable that the project is this year's recipient of the HIA honour.
