Bronte Group has received planning approval for Miru, a new 46-townhouse development in Denman Prospect.

Occupying a prominent 6,869 sqm ridgeline site across Holborow Avenue and Goedecke Street, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/miru-holborow-avenue-denman-prospect-act-2611">Miru</a> will comprise four architecturally unified buildings ranging between two and three storeys. The townhouses are arranged to maximise views of the Molonglo Valley to the east and Stromlo’s bushland to the west, offering residents a rare dual outlook.

There will be 30 two-bedroom and 16 three-bedroom townhouses, with seven different floorplan layouts.

“The townhouses are carefully arranged to harmonize with the landscape, grouped into four subtly distinct yet cohesive blocks,” the Development Outcomes Report prepared by Planit Strategic notes.

"Each block of townhouses is designed to maximise views… while ensuring access to natural cross-ventilation and daylight”.

A standout element of the design is the integration of landscaping and open space. All homes will have private courtyards, while residents and visitors will benefit from extensive communal landscaping and dedicated visitor parking. A key pedestrian corridor running east to west will link public open space and enhance site permeability.

&nbsp;

The site is zoned RZ5 and sits within the newly developed Denman Prospect estate. While currently vacant, the area forms part of a broader plan for high-quality residential infill in the Molonglo Valley. The project’s scale and low-rise format ensure a measured transition to the adjacent lower-density housing, with generous setbacks and minimal overshadowing.

&nbsp;

Miru will be the fifth development by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/bronte-group">Bronte Group</a> in Denman Prospect in recent years. They completed&nbsp;Symmetry, 83 townhouses down the road in 2022, as well as Solai, and Aberconway Rise. They are currently selling Central Park, a mix of apartments and townhouses in the suburb around 15km west of the capital.

Bronte Group secures approval for Miru, Denman Prospect townhouse development

Burgeoning developer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/freecity">Freecity</a>&nbsp;is the latest to take on the booming North Sydney apartment market, one of the most popular suburbs with off the plan buyers.

They are taking a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/153-walker-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">51-storey tower on Walker Street</a> to the NSW Government's&nbsp;Housing Delivery Authority, filing a State Significant Development Application for 300 apartments above a 150-room hotel. It will replace two commercial office buildings.

According to the Scoping Report prepared by Urbis, the development will "support the ongoing evolution of North Sydney by delivering a high-quality, mixed-use tower in close proximity to major public infrastructure."

They also said it “responds to the competing urban demands” of housing, hospitality, and employment.

<img alt="153–157 Walker Street" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="53e44b04-851c-496e-b90c-e4d77aa8f000" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Waler-St-Elevated-View-600x600.jpg?VersionId=fSDYrb1wJR.RVZVWo3wRUaw9n265x1Ka" />

The vertical program places hotel uses on levels one to six, activated by a retail arcade and hotel entry, while the upper levels contain communal amenity and transition spaces. The residential component will be delivered across levels 8 to 47 and includes a mix of one to three-bedroom apartments. Shared facilities include a rooftop lounge, dining space, and landscaped terrace with panoramic views.&nbsp;

The design also accommodates a publicly accessible through-site link connecting Walker and Little Walker Streets.&nbsp;

<img alt="Freecity" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="26165ce9-e49d-4efb-9e9c-037392707d9f" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Article%20Feature%20Image%20%28Grid%29_1.png?VersionId=lAet4uJy_uNw3nc2e6hBc6302r9Q1dUB" />

The built form continues to reflect the earlier design vision by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/architectus">Architectus</a>, with a distinctive two-volume massing: hotel podium stepping down to Little Walker Street, and the slender residential tower rising above. The architecture intends to balance North Sydney’s increasing urban density with solar access, view sharing, and a fine-grain public realm interface.

“The form has been sculpted to preserve sky view corridors and reduce visual bulk,” the Design Report by Architectus previously noted, highlighting view preservation and contextual integration.

Importantly, this latest iteration supersedes an earlier SSD pathway explored in late 2024 for a build-to-rent and hotel project. That alternative scheme has since been shelved following Freecity’s successful submission to the HDA’s new streamlined approval stream.

<img alt="153–157 Walker Street" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="f70e4ee4-4599-411b-9fc1-802c4292819e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Littile-Walker_Elevated-800x600.jpg?VersionId=zhfw3NMg_jchSSWuUHJJg8.m.qhqZgYM" />

The site sits within the Victoria Cross Station State Significant Precinct and is expected to integrate with broader public domain upgrades around the Metro station, including new pedestrian links and plaza connections between Berry and Walker Streets.

&nbsp;

North Sydney has been one of the most indemand suburbs in Sydney, however it has struggled with supply. <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/aura-by-aqualand-north-sydney-168-walker-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">AURA by Aqualand</a> was one of the only developments in market for several years, until the recent launches of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-walden-north-sydney-173-179-walker-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">The Walden</a>, which sold over $100m of sales in three hours, and <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-mclaren-north-sydney-45-mclaren-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">The McLaren</a> by CASA.

Freecity joins booming North Sydney apartment market with 51-storey tower proposal near Victoria Cross

Prolific Sydney developer Landmark Group is continuing to expand its growing development portfolio.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/landmark-group">Landmark Group</a>, which is progressing with a new Edgecliff project alongside current developments in Macquarie Park and Caringbah, is set to deliver rare new apartment supply in Lindfield, the affluent suburb on Sydney’s Upper North Shore. The projects form part of the NSW Government’s broader push to increase housing density around key transport hubs.

The developer currently has two proposals under assessment through the NSW Government’s Housing Delivery Authority. Together, they comprise nearly 400 apartments, 220 across a large 6,672 sqm amalgamated site spanning Trafalgar Avenue and Valley Road, and a further 173 apartments just 300 metres away on Middle Harbour Road.

The Trafalgar Avenue project, dubbed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/lindfield-house-5-7-middle-harbour-road-lindfield-nsw-2070">Lindfield House</a>, is located around 500 metres from Lindfield train station. It will feature 220 apartments across three buildings. Architecture firm DKO, which designed the scheme, said in its submission that the façade strategy is guided by design principles promoting refined architectural expression, contextual sensitivity, and a human-scaled urban response.

“Central to this approach is a layered and sculptural composition, where massing, materiality, and depth are strategically modulated to create a dynamic and visually legible built form. The architecture is defined by a clear hierarchical organisation: a robust, grounded podium provides a strong interface with the public realm, while lighter upper tiers recede into the skyline,” DKO said.

<img alt="Landmark" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d934b639-becc-4778-9756-979a2d6ef514" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-10-22%20at%2010.41.27%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=Ss4AdKdVpjArekAiir2213cjcWrAgBJz" /> 
The open courtyard between the buildings

DKO also designed the Middle Harbour Road project, which is closer to the station. The nine-storey building is "structured to respect the surrounding context and provide a clear urban transition."

“The design aims to respond to both the low-scale residential development of the heritage overlay precinct and the highway development immediately to the south in the North Sydney CBD”.

The mix of units is intended to serve both general market demand and key worker housing, with affordable housing apartments integrated at the lower levels. The proposed building steps from six to nine storeys as it ascends from the rear to the street front, creating a layered form that mediates between the different scales of surrounding built form.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/landmark-group">Landmark Group</a> has&nbsp;delivered more than 4,000 homes across Australia, with a future pipeline worth $5 billion. Among their pipeline of projects is a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/nsw/first-look-landmark-group-tries-again-with-edgecliff-tower-plans">new mixed-use development near Edgecliff Station</a>.&nbsp;

They are also have live projects in Macquarie Park, Caringbah, and Dee Why.

From suburban apartment blocks to skyline-defining towers, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a>’s journey over the past 26 years has been one of consistent expansion and scale. The last decade in particular has seen Deicorp become one of the most prolific developers in Greater Sydney. Now with a $3.5 billion pipeline and some of its boldest projects yet, the developer is taking on central Sydney, starting with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/hyde-metropolitan-sydney-133-141-liverpool-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Hyde Metropolitan</a>.

Deicorp founder Fouad Deiri started the company in 1999 initially working out of a small office in Hurstville, with a 21-unit townhouse project in Albert Street Newtown. With a small but capable team, they utilised their extensive construction industry experience to grow the scale and complexity of jobs to now having a team of more than 200 with more than 4,000 units currently under construction.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=21809 project_image_fid=351911]

One of their most significant developments, Hyde Metropolitan, will arguably become one of their greatest feats, reshaping the city skyline at the southern end of Hyde Park.

Deicorp is already nearly five years into the development process. It was 2021 when they secured the Polding Centre, a 1970s, 24-storey office building on the corner of Liverpool and Castlereagh Street, from the Catholic Archdiocese of Sydney, following a six-month competitive process.

As per the City of Sydney regulations when developing within their council to the scale of such a building, the council undertook a competitive design process where architects put forward different designs and schemes for the site.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=21809 project_image_fid=215742]

They settled on the proposal by renowned architect <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/candalepas-associates">Angelo Candelapas</a>, which would bring to life their vision to create one of the best new developments within the CBD.

“I cannot imagine anything more beautiful than the delivery of a building which can demonstrate a deep affection for our sun,” Angelo Candelapas said of the design. “It is a building with dramatic foyers and an oasis garden for the residents. These two facilities link to provide a sense of wellness and nature in the centre of the city.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=21809 project_image_fid=215741]

Fouad Deiri said he had long admired the innovation and design language of Candelapas.

“Deicorp has deliberately partnered with some of Sydney’s most recognised and capable architects in the past and we understand the value of working with truly talented designers,” Deiri said.

There are just under 170 apartments on offer at Hyde Metropolitan, a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences, many with never-to-be-built-out views over Hyde Park and towards the Harbour.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=21809 project_image_fid=215728]

Upon arrival, residents will be greeted by an eight-level-high private lobby with arched cathedral fenestrations, serving as a podium to the 55-level tower. The ground level will also host a high-end restaurant and cocktail lounge, very much in keeping with its vibrant streetscape.

The resident amenity will sit on top of the podium and will feature a 25-metre pool, landscaped courtyards and gardens, a barbecue area, gym with a sauna, and a music room. Sales are being handled by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/srm-residential">SRM Residential</a>. SRM Director Dave Milton said Hyde Metropolitan will be "one of the preeminent Sydney residential developments on the southern end of Hyde Park."

Hyde Metropolitan is one of nine developments either under construction, in planning, or in market for Deicorp.

Their next project to launch, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/falcon-alexander-8-alexander-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Falcon &amp; Alexander</a> in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/crows-nest-nsw-2065">Crows Nest</a>, will be their first development on Sydney’s Lower North Shore. True to tradition, Deicorp has already commenced construction on Falcon &amp; Alexander, prominently positioned at The Five Ways junction, placing it a five-minute walk from the new Metro station and in close proximity to Crows Nest Village. The one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments will start from just under $1.3 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135323 project_image_fid=351946]

Deicorp will roll into 2026 with several more projects to launch to the market for the first time.

They have already cleared their massive 2.87-hectare site Zetland that borders Gunyama Park, where they will transform a former industrial site into <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-avenues-zetland-130-joynton-avenue-zetland-nsw-2017">The Avenues</a>, 624 apartments across nine buildings, curated ground-floor retail, purpose-built student housing, and build-to-rent dwellings delivered in partnership with Scape. It is one of the largest developments to be launched in Sydney’s inner south in recent years.

One of their most anticipated projects is the $1.8 billion Five Dock masterplan <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kings-bay-village-53-75-queens-road-five-dock-nsw-2046">Kings Bay Village</a> (below), to be delivered in a joint venture with non-bank lender Metrics.

<img alt="Deicorp teams up with Metrics for $1.88 billion Kings Bay Village, Five Dock masterplan" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/f_auto,c_limit,w_1440,q_auto/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/field/image/Screenshot%202025-08-14%20at%208.12.53%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=_9z4I8B0EIzrXe3ldnXti1bSXCeoZi2W" />

Kings Bay Village will comprise 1,185 new homes, including 218 affordable dwellings for essential workers, along with 6,500 sqm of public open space and 14,700 sqm of vibrant retail and commercial offerings.

Add to that more releases at their <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/showground-pavilions-castle-hill-3-andalusian-way-castle-hill-nsw-2154">Castle Hill Showgrounds</a> precinct, and their under construction projects in Rhodes and Parramatta, Deicorp is in the midst of adding a much-needed 3,000 new apartments to some of Sydney’s most sought-after postcodes.

Deicorp dives into luxury as Sydney apartment development pipeline grows

A prominent corner in Wynnum’s central precinct could be reshaped under new plans from <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/toore-developments">Torre Development</a>, with a development application now with council for a sculptural eight-storey apartment building combining residential, office, and recreation uses.

Situated at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/63-bay-terrace-wynnum-qld-4178">63 Bay Terrace</a>, the 2,014 sqm site lies at the intersection with Charlotte Street, within the Wynnum-Manly Neighbourhood Plan’s Wynnum central business district sub-precinct. The proposal seeks to deliver 78 apartments above ground-floor non-residential tenancies, with architecture by Plus Studio.

The proposed building will be a mix of 58 two-bedroom and 20 three-bedroom apartments spread across seven residential levels, crowned by a 914 sqm communal rooftop terrace featuring a pool, gym, sauna, and private dining areas.

Ground level activation is a key aspect of the design, with 771 sqm of office and indoor sport and recreation space proposed to reinforce the area’s major centre designation. The site will also deliver improved pedestrian amenity via a recessed entry plaza on Bay Terrace and a landscaped public realm along Charlotte Street.

<img alt="63 Bay Terrace, Wynnum" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="4e5ef890-2f8f-4bbd-9ff1-57fa4e4360d2" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Wynnum%20podium.png?VersionId=7_if97F1KAYrTX2BQrNspFInEHwXcQRd" />

In their design report, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/plus-studio">Plus Studio</a> described the form as “sculpted into a rhythmic wave, amplifying facade dynamism while merging interior life seamlessly with the city’s texture to evoke a fluid, immersive urban living experience”.

Vehicle access will be via Bay Terrace, with four basement levels accommodating 197 car spaces, including 177 for residents. Bicycle storage is also provided for 193 bikes.

The building’s architectural character is marked by curved balconies, horizontal banding at podium level, and lush greenery integrated throughout.

“Traditional developments in Wynnum typically feature above-ground car parking, a tiered 'wedding-cake' building form, no podium-level landscaping, and no rooftop amenities,” Mewing Planning noted in the DA, positioning this proposal as a departure from the norm.

The new development is Torre's second in the area, having recently completed Catalina, a more boutique building with 28 apartments.

There are only two new developments currently on the market in Wynnum: Panorama on Bay Terrace and Adena Residences on Sorrento Street, the latter of which is nearing completion.

Ascot

Mirvac will start construction on the latest stage of Australia’s first racecourse fronting community, Ascot Green, with the $135 million Charlton House the next instalment in the historic Eagle Farm redevelopment.&nbsp;

In a bid to address a significant shortage of new apartments in the city, work will begin on the 14-level apartment building, with Mirvac working with Eagle Farm Racecourse owner, Brisbane Racing Club (BRC), just three months after its launch to market, with more than $70 million of apartments already sold - predominately to local buyers.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108351 project_image_fid=179497]

According to new research released in Place Advisory’s Spring 2022 Apartment report, it is estimated Brisbane currently has just two months of new apartment supply, with deferred projects exacerbating supply and demand pressures.&nbsp;

Reinforcing its confidence in Brisbane, Charlton House is the third apartment project that ASX-listed developer, Mirvac currently has under construction in the city, delivering housing diversity in some of the most sought-after inner ring precincts.&nbsp;

Mirvac General Manager Residential Queensland, Warwick Bible, said the start of construction was a major milestone for the community, following the fast-tracking of Charlton House to meet demand.&nbsp;

“Our buyers have shown strong confidence in Charlton House and, to start construction just three months after launch, shows we echo that confidence in this development and the broader Brisbane apartment market,” he said.

“This milestone gives our purchasers certainty with the knowledge their apartment is being delivered by Mirvac that designs, masterplans and manages its projects every step of the way and which has done so for over 50 years."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108351 project_image_fid=194813]

“The start of construction also signals the next phase of urban renewal for the historic Eagle Farm, giving more people the opportunity to live in this fantastic location,” he added.

Charlton House marks the third stage of Mirvac’s Ascot Green community, part of Brisbane Racing Club’s $1.5 billion masterplanned redevelopment of Eagle Farm, which will see the precinct transformed with luxury apartments, offices, a new shopping and dining precinct and a range of entertainment options.&nbsp;

Mirvac has already completed and sold-out Tulloch House and Ascot House at Ascot Green, with both buildings situated directly on Eagle Farm Racecourse, in the blue-chip suburb of Ascot.&nbsp;

Charlton House will comprise 113 one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments, and a limited collection of three and four-bedroom villas, with apartments sold from $499,000 through to more than $3 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108351 project_image_fid=194811]

&nbsp;“Given about a third of Ascot is racecourse, there is very limited supply in this highly sought-after precinct, with demand only set to grow leading up to the 2032 Olympics, with the precinct’s proximity to facilities like the Athlete’s Village in Hamilton and Brisbane Indoor Sports Stadium in Albion," continued Bible.

“Larger apartments designed for owner-occupiers are in extremely high demand in Brisbane’s inner- ring, and buyers have been quick to secure their place at Charlton House as a result, with our premium apartments among the first to sell.”&nbsp;

Brisbane Racing Club Chairman, Neville Bell OAM, said the start of construction is an important stage in the BRC Masterplan.&nbsp;

“The commencement of Charlton House is the third stage of our partnership with Mirvac, undoubtedly a significant milestone in working towards the completion of the Brisbane Racing Club’s $1.5 billion Masterplan,” he said.

 
“Our Masterplan has set the standard for the redevelopment of ancillary land owned by race clubs around the country, in doing so we are safeguarding our legacy and relevance as a club for years to come."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108351 project_image_fid=194814]

“Eagle Farm Racecourse is the heart of the Ascot and we look forward to welcoming the residents of the 113 residences to our community,” Bell added.&nbsp;

Bible said Charlton House, like previous Ascot Green releases, was popular with downsizers, although its diverse apartment offering appeals to a range of buyers, including young professionals and families.&nbsp;

“The location of Charlton House sets it apart. It is extremely rare – unique, even - to live in an inner-city apartment surrounded by 50 hectares of green space, including the racecourse,” he said.

“The tranquillity the location offers, close to the CBD, restaurants, cafes, shops and the airport, is attracting purchasers across the board."&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108351 project_image_fid=179498]

Designed by Mirvac Design, Charlton House features a rooftop sanctuary with a private dining room taking in Brisbane city skyline views. It also features intimate lounge areas and extensive sub-tropical landscaping, with a gym and resort-style pool on the ground level overlooking the racecourse.&nbsp;

Charlton House joins the $197 million Quay luxury riverside apartments, along with Mirvac’s first QLD build-to-rent project, the $270 million dual-tower LIV Anura, which are both under construction in the $1 billion Brisbane River development, Waterfront Newstead.

Mirvac Construction, the Group’s dedicated construction arm, is building all three projects, with Charlton House to create more than 300 direct and indirect construction jobs over its 21-month build program, anticipated for completion in mid-2024.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=108351]

Reinforcing its confidence in Brisbane, Charlton House is the third apartment project ASX-listed developer Mirvac currently has under construction in the city, delivering housing diversity in some of the most sought-after inner ring precincts.

Construction begins on latest Ascot apartment stage in Mirvac’s Eagle Farm redevelopment

Having sold out the first two residential stages of their Ascot Green development flanking the Eagle Park Racecourse in Brisbane, the ASX-listed developer Mirvac has lodged plans for its third stage.

The third, subtropical-inspired apartment block will rise 14 levels with 111 apartments and a rooftop with panoramic city and track views. That will also feature a private dining room and lounge areas.

It will home the community&#39;s first four-bedroom apartments, as well as four integrated terraces with direct access to green open space fronting the racecourse.

The ground level will feature a gym and resort-style pool overlooking the racecourse.

Mirvac Head of Residential Stuart Penklis said the developer was already taking registrations of interest, including from purchasers who missed out on securing their place in Tulloch House (pictured below.)

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27704 project_image_fid=152793]

It is anticipated the new release, the third at Ascot Green, would go to market in late 2021 or early 2022, pending approval from Brisbane City Council.

&nbsp;

&ldquo;The demand for apartments in Brisbane is extremely high, particularly at the top end,&rdquo;&nbsp;Penklis said.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;re seeing this being driven by a number of factors, including local owner-occupiers capitalising on the strong growth of their family home to secure a generous apartment, upgraders expanding their living space and location, and continued high interstate migration.&quot;

Nearly two-thirds of buyers in Ascot House and Tulloch House&nbsp;came from adjoining blue-chip suburbs like Ascot, Hamilton and Clayfield, a trend in which Penklis suggests will continue in the newest building.

&nbsp;

There&#39;s also the intergenerational buyer, where&nbsp;multiple purchasers from one family are seeking individual apartments in the community.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27556 project_image_fid=71309]

Mirvac Design have described the new building design as an ode to its Ascot surrounds and a reimagination of the classic Queenslander.

Mirvac Design director Nicolas Thioulouse said the architecture of the planned building was guided by the &lsquo;Buildings that Breathe&rsquo; vision and design elements friendly to South East Queensland&#39;s climate.

&ldquo;We have focused on aligning the proposed building with Brisbane&rsquo;s beautiful sub-tropical climate and its truly unique location, surrounded by 50 hectares of green space,&rdquo; Thioulouse said.

&ldquo;In keeping with the peaceful and natural surrounds, residents will enjoy the authentically Queenslander experiences of shade and shelter, and screening and greenery, with the ability to open and close elements as they wish to maximise natural light and ventilation.

The sold-out Tulloch House features 84 one, two and three-bedroom apartments and luxury penthouses, which achieved from $450,000 to more than $2 million. The apartments are due to be completed in late 2021.

The first stage, Ascot House, sold-out all 90 apartments in 2020 and is completed.

It was announced earlier this week Tulloch House, featuring 84 apartments, had sold out, with completion expected by the end of the year.

The third, subtropical-inspired apartment block will rise 14 levels with 111 apartments and a rooftop with panoramic city and track views

Mirvac fast-track third apartment stage at Eagle Farm Racecourse development, Ascot Green

The ASX-listed developer Mirvac has secured a sell-out of its Tulloch House apartment development, part of their wider $1.2 billion&nbsp;masterplan alongside Eagle Farm Racecourse in Brisbane&#39;s Ascot.

The 84 one, two and three-bedroom apartments and penthouses in Tulloch House sold for between $450,000 to over $2 million. There has been $18 million worth of sales in 2021.

Construction&nbsp;is well advanced,&nbsp;with the eight-level building&nbsp;recently topping out,&nbsp;with work being finalised on the interior joinery fit-out, balconies and the expansive roof terrace.

Ascot Green is part of Brisbane Racing Club&rsquo;s $1.2 billion masterplan redevelopment of Eagle Farm, which will include apartments, commercial offices, dining, services and a range of entertainment options.

Mirvac has started taking registrations of interest ahead of the launch of the third building in Ascot Green, anticipated to launch either later this year or early next.

Mirvac Head of Residential Stuart Penklis said its reputation as a highly desirable place to live had driven demand for the final apartments in Tulloch House.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27704 project_image_fid=152793]

&ldquo;While all Tulloch House apartments have now been secured, we have continued to field interest from those wanting a place in the community, prompting us to expedite the timeline for our next chapter of Ascot Green,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;We are in the design phase and working to bring this release to the market as soon as possible. While the finer details are being finalised, it will follow in the footsteps of our first two stages, Ascot House and Tulloch House, delivering high quality apartments to this one-of-a-kind location.&rdquo;

Penklis said&nbsp;the rare opportunity to live close to the Brisbane CBD and next to 50 hectares of green open space appealed to buyers.

&ldquo;This is a unique location that can&rsquo;t be replicated elsewhere in the city,&rdquo; he said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27556 project_image_fid=71309]

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve found the opportunity to live with so much green space at the doorstep has been a significant drawcard for buyers, including young professionals, families and downsizers.

&ldquo;As the first residential project of its kind on a racecourse in Australia, we have the opportunity to set the bar for this style of development and have paid careful attention to embracing the historic elements of the site, with the masonry brickwork carrying through the design.

&ldquo;The upcoming building will continue to reflect its surrounds, with a new take on fa&ccedil;ade, interiors and apartment layouts that will deliver a first for the precinct, benefiting the residents who call these truly remarkable apartments home.&rdquo;

Silk at <a href="https://ecomms.raywhite.com/collect/click.aspx?u=OWFpWUxRYW1kY2dqaUE0aEpRNVRVTjRCS2drZkZzdHEvVUg2UmFFUGNOeWdTazRUYUlkckhaT3dYWTRReFltc1B0WE00TDd5Zk9kd2k0bVJqUERIWnRYN3Z6QmxqVTY4TnlNcVhhcjN5a3I2YXZvWmhFYUluZUNLbjJibGNUUDJDaUYvaDlSdlZBRWgvNG1OYU9TRjlLaEJwajN3RkNxdw==&amp;rh=ff0068e2421fea6fb8e87e3a7e4681e1bc9132ca" target="_blank">118 Racecourse Road</a> is the latest prestige creation of Brisbane’s Geocal Group and Loucas Zahos Architects.
Silk comprises 11 large residential apartments over the two top levels, two levels of car parking, almost 700sq m of first level commercial space and 600sq m of prime ground floor retail space.
The ground floor retail component was sold by Ray White Commercial QLD father and son duo Stephen and Elliot Kidd.
The duo have now completed the sales of the entire commercial floor with all seven assets now under contract or settled.
Mr Stephen Kidd said the Silk development was breathing life back into one of Brisbane’s most prestigious addresses.
“The building is certainly a stand-out landmark for the street, with the sophisticated architecture by local award-winning firm, Loucas Zahos,” Mr Stephen Kidd said.
“One of the real attractions to the building was the opportunity for local businesses to own their own tenancy vs rent, which has led to strong demand for the commercial space. Of the seven tenancies under contract or settled, all of them have been purchased by owner operators.
“The ground floor retail space will comprise a well-known and enhanced local café/restaurant, skin clinic (already trading), and a mix of food and services.”
“The project was officially completed in July and represents a vote of confidence in one of Brisbane’s wealthiest postcodes,” Mr Elliot Kidd said.
Mr Kidd said it showed that developers were still finding ways to create special projects that left a lasting impression and he was looking forward to seeing people at Silk soon.

Windermere, the landmark Ascot, Brisbane home, has sold for over $13 million, breaking the affluent suburb's residential house price record.
The Victorian-style trophy on Sutherland Avenue, one of the oldest in Ascot, was sold to a local developer through Ray White New Farm agents Matt Lancashire and Hamish Bowman.
Lancashire said there was a lot of interest in the estate.
“We had a lot of interest from interstate, plus expat buyers in the UK, Hong Kong and Singapore plus some Australian farmers,  especially from country Victoria", Lancashire said.
"The land size alone was very attractive as it’s over an acre of land, one of the largest land parcels in the area."
“We had serious buyers but in fact the winning buyers weren’t actively looking, they were passive buyers as they have a beautiful home themselves but saw this unique property was on the market and jumped at the chance to buy it”.
Windermere was originally built for Ruth Sutherland, the daughter of pastoralist James Sutherland, the street's namesake who acquired a substantial landholding in the 1850s.
Ruth went on to marry solicitor and later pastoralist and politician John Appel and the two were the first occupants of the home.
Believed to have been designed by architect Richard Galley, Windermere has had a whose who of occupants over its 130 year history.

The cattle baron TJ Cottee lived in the home, as did Robert Bentley, the accountant and long-term chairman of Racing Queensland and for 40 years from 1920s, prominent doctor Sir Ellis Murphy and wife Mary owned the home.
The late Ariadne Corp deputy chairman Peter Maloney and wife Janet owned the property in the 80s and 90s, selling for $1.8 million in 1994.
The gated Windermere, set on 4,665 sqm, the largest block on the street, has six bedrooms, four bathrooms, a media room, home office, 1,500 bottle wine cellar and a sauna.
Its centrepiece is the marble provincial inspired kitchen, flanked by grand formal lounge and dining areas. There's further casual lounge and dining spaces.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2020/3/18/Windermere%202.jpg" alt="">
Lancashire says the newly installed commercial-grade kitchen is arguably the best in Brisbane, maybe even across Queensland. 
The deep wrap-around verandahs open to the park-like manicured gardens which feature a central deck with outdoor kitchen and pizza oven, a swimming pool and spa and a tennis court, set amid level lawns.
Windermere was last sold by pub baron Andrew Griffiths and wife Helen to the local Miers family. The $10.2 million sale in 2014 was the highest price paid in Brisbane since 2007.

Sutherland Avenue, a street of just 15 houses with views to the Moreton Bay region, is the most-sought after street in the suburb and homes some of the suburb's most expensive houses.
The big ticket prices really kicked off in 2003 when fashion designer Keri Craig-Lee and her cattle baron husband Trevor, the former Australia Country Choice chairman, spent $6.12 million on the house Sutherland.
Two years ago Glenn Rutherford, the executive vice president of global cargo handling giant Swissport, paid $11 million for the nearby home of Domino's Pizza boss Don Meij, a street and suburb record.  
Meij had paid $8,615,000 two years earlier when buying from Maxine Horne, one of Australia's richest female CEO's, and her Fone Zone co-founder ex-husband David McMahon.
Coronis Hamilton agents Andrew Coronis and Patrick Mckinnon quietly sold the six bedroom home on 2,025 sqm. It toppled the former street record, set in 2014 when the 1880's built Windermere sold for $10.2 million.
