<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/jwland-development">JWLand</a>’s De Burgh, the final residential release within the Northbourne Village precinct in Lyneham, is nearing completion just as the Federal Government’s Home Guarantee Scheme prepares for its most significant expansion to date.&nbsp;

From October 2025, the scheme will allow first home buyers to enter the market with just a five per cent deposit and no lenders mortgage insurance (LMI), removing some of the most common barriers to ownership.

With <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/de-burgh-at-northbourne-village-40-de-burgh-street-lyneham-act-2602">De Burgh</a> on track for residents to move in by late spring 2025, the timing creates a strong opportunity for first home buyers seeking brand-new apartments in Canberra’s sought-after Inner North.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=139989 project_image_fid=212888]

The project delivers 350 residences across two buildings, with layouts ranging from compact studios through to one, two, and three-bedroom apartments.

JWLand has tailored the development for long-term liveability, integrating natural light, privacy and outdoor space into each home. Ground-floor residences feature private courtyards, while upper levels benefit from generous balconies.

Kitchens are fitted with Fisher &amp; Paykel appliances, and all apartments include ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning with smartphone app control for lighting and climate.&nbsp;

Shared resident facilities include a rooftop garden, gym, lounge and parcel lockers, alongside landscaped green space within the precinct.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=139989 project_image_fid=267376]

For buyers, the expanded Home Guarantee Scheme removes income caps and introduces unlimited places, making it more accessible than ever. With most De Burgh apartments priced under $1 million, they fall well within the updated eligibility thresholds.

The policy changes provide first home buyers with greater certainty and a smoother path to finance. Combined with the quality and location of De Burgh, the expanded scheme is expected to draw a new wave of buyers to Canberra’s Inner North.

Residents will benefit from the project’s central setting, just 600 metres from the light rail and three kilometres from Canberra’s CBD. The precinct is bordered by the <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/lyneham-act-2602">Lyneham</a> wetlands and sits within easy reach of cafes, restaurants, schools and the ANU.

With completion scheduled for late 2025, De Burgh is set to be among the first major apartment projects to meet the expanded scheme head-on, offering first-time buyers a realistic pathway to ownership in one of Canberra’s most connected neighbourhoods.

A subtropical pair of residential towers are in planning for a key South Brisbane site neighbouring the iconic Expo ’88 Skyneedle, with new documents revealing a vertically layered vision designed to respond to the precinct’s evolving high-density character.

The proposal has been lodged by&nbsp;Darveniza Group, which is also is behind the 400-apartment Station Quarter precinct in Alderley.

Darveniza Group, led by Jane Darveniza, the Brisbane-based investor and Queensland rich-lister and widow of the late property magnate Bojan Darveniza, is seeking approval for a mixed-use project encompassing 204 apartments, ground-level retail, food and drink tenancies, and office space across two architecturally integrated towers at 37–39 Manning Street.

Occupying an 1,822 sqm site, the proposed towers would rise above a sculptural podium base, with a recessed landscaped centre, rooftop communal areas, and a total of 220 car parks and 256 bicycle bays. The apartment mix spans one- to five-bedroom dwellings, with a design emphasis on generous balconies, cross-ventilation, and climate-responsive materials.

<img alt="First look: Twin towers proposed for Manning Street site beside Skyneedle" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="42c1f501-2afd-440b-af49-67c257123ea7" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Manning%20podium.png?VersionId=KFlksfWzmDRD.VIYxd_1q3VAel.nN3TH" />

“The development is conceived as two slender twin buildings that meet at a lushly landscaped central recess,” the Finegrain design report states. “The façade is highly articulated with the plan form stepping back and forth to reduce visual bulk and maximise internal occupants’ access to natural light and air”.

A hallmark of the proposal is its integration of greenery, both visually and functionally. Around 77 per cent of the site’s green plot ratio is delivered through vertical planting spines, a green podium wall, and rooftop amenity. Ground-level deep planting and landscaped communal zones aim to create a shaded, walkable interface along Manning Street.

“The stepped plan form introduces variation in balcony setbacks and enclosed apartment areas, enriching both the façade expression and the resident experience,” the design team notes. “At ground and podium levels, this stepping also enhances permeability, maximising pedestrian view lines to the neighbouring Skyneedle and reinforcing a strong sense of local identity”.

<img alt="First look: Twin towers proposed for Manning Street site beside Skyneedle" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="b3f26dfc-6b93-465c-9ffb-0a2530372a23" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Manning%20site.png?VersionId=JflvKdqDxcaHTFbb9HL5TwoiRgeQ2LqA" />

The site directly adjoins the heritage-listed Skyneedle at 35 Manning Street, an enduring legacy of World Expo ’88. The accompanying heritage impact report by Pendergast Architects contends that the proposal has been carefully conceived to protect the cultural significance and landmark visibility of the structure.

“The design provides setbacks, tower separation and podium articulation to maintain the visibility and landmark role of the adjoining Skyneedle,” the report states. “The significance of the Skyneedle lies principally in its landmark visibility and cultural symbolism, rather than in detailed fabric or architectural setting”.

The proposal sits within the Kurilpa Sustainable Growth Precinct, under Brisbane’s TLPI 02/2023, where revised planning controls support high-density, mixed-use development integrated with subtropical design and increased public realm contributions.

Finegrain’s design reflects this intent, drawing cues from the site's adjacency to Musgrave Park, the subtropical landscape of South Brisbane, and cultural landmarks such as QPAC and South Bank.

A first-of-its-kind culinary precinct is coming to <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/melrose-park-nsw-2114">Melrose Park</a>, inspired by global street-food flavours and best-in-class restaurants and entertainment.

Deicorp’s emerging mid-city precinct, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/melrose-central-melrose-park-33-hope-street-melrose-park-nsw-2114">Melrose Central</a>, will become the go-to precinct within the wider Melrose Park community, and at its heart, a first-of-its-kind culinary precinct that brings the buzz of Asia’s most iconic food streets to life.

Spanning more than 4,700 sqm, Melrose Central street food precinct is inspired by the energy and vibrant flavours of street-food neighbourhoods from Hong Kong and Tokyo to Seoul and Singapore.

This new destination will be over three times the size of existing offerings like Burwood Chinatown or Westfield Chatswood’s Hawker Lane, positioning Melrose Central as a must-visit dining hub for all of Sydney.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134220 project_image_fid=289878]

Designed by Anthony Ho of Basalt Studio, this street food concept blurs the lines between culinary theatre, art, and entertainment, offering an immersive experience. Neon-lit laneways thread between open kitchens and live grill stations, while murals, interactive displays, and light installations will bring the precinct to life, trading until late, a first for the area.

“We’ve imagined our street food concept as a graduated evolution of everything people love about Burwood Chinatown, East Village and Regent Place, elevated by the immersive artistry creating a city-style dining offer,” said Bilinda Turner, Head of Retail at Deicorp.

“By curating the very best tenants from across Australia, we’re creating a fit-for-purpose town centre for 2025 and beyond. It’s something that people truly haven’t seen before."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134220 project_image_fid=352610]

Melrose Central is far more than a food precinct. Spanning 30,000 sqm across four levels, the shopping centre will be home to approximately 100 retailers, providing a total lifestyle offering from morning until late evening.

Fresh food offerings span a brand new Coles Supermarket, Local Grocer, Korean Supermarket, Bakery and boutique fresh food, as well as a Dan Murphy's, while health needs are covered from a pharmacy, medical centre and allied health. Fitness and wellbeing take centre stage from a dedicated wellbeing hub that includes pilates, recovery, Infrared saunas and a gym, to name a few.

Variety stores will feature throughout, as well as personal care offerings from nail salons to hairdressers, as well as a dedicated early-learning centre on level 1.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134220 project_image_fid=289888]

Situated above the retail precinct will be 495 Turner Studio-designed apartments that open onto 6,000 sqm of lush podium gardens and rooftop terraces.

Located just six kilometres east of Parramatta’s CBD and 15km from Sydney CBD, Melrose Central forms the retail and lifestyle heart of Melrose Park, an urban-renewal precinct that is set to deliver more than 11,000 homes, 22,000 new residents, and 50,000 sqm of park and open space.

A dedicated stop on Parramatta Light Rail Stage 2 will arrive at the precinct’s Hope Street entrance, and the forthcoming Parramatta Gateway Bridge will link directly to Sydney Olympic Park and Wentworth Point.&nbsp;

Supported by a 10-minute drive, this growing catchment of 200,000 people, which is projected to grow to 279,000 by 2026, and an average household income above the Greater Sydney average, Melrose Central embodies Deicorp’s vision for transport-oriented, community-focused placemaking.&nbsp;

Melrose Central street food precinct and the wider Melrose Central retail town centre are both slated to open in mid-2026.

Melrose Central: First-of-its-kind culinary precinct coming to Sydney’s West

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sekisui-house-australia">Sekisui House Australia</a> has unveiled the fifth and final stage of its $1 billion Norwest community, The Orchards.

The final stage, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/zeste-at-the-orchards-norwest-104-fairway-drive-norwest-nsw-2153">Zeste</a>, will deliver 209 apartments across two distinctive buildings, Essence and Eden. The 135 apartments in Essence will be the first to be released to the market, which will bring to an end the decade-long vision to create a&nbsp;neighbourhood defined by design excellence, sustainability, and community engagement.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150510 project_image_fid=351878]

David Lee, Sales Manager at Sekisui House Australia said, Zeste's oversized living spaces and diverse apartment mix, which includes the introduction of&nbsp;Breezeway Sky Homes for the first time, deliver a unique lifestyle offering.

Early purchasers will benefit from exclusive VIP pricing as well as the choice of one premium upgrade, which Lee says is a "thank you" for their commitment to the project.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150510 project_image_fid=351876]

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a>, Zeste embodies Sekisui House’s global design philosophy of creating harmony between people, homes and nature. Principal Ben Pomroy explained that Zeste is about living within the landscape.

“With two large courtyards, the lagoon pool precinct for the wider community and a central courtyard with pavilion exclusively for Zeste residents, the architecture frames an experience of living in a park," Pomroy said.

“Over 50 per cent of the site is landscaped, ensuring a deep connection to nature at every stage of daily life. The buildings are designed as a collection of smaller, finer-grain forms, with over 85% of apartments enjoying dual aspects.

“The focus on natural ventilation, generous layouts and communal interaction creates a residential environment that is both sustainable and socially connected.”

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150510 project_image_fid=351886]

Natalie Shalala, a member of Rothelowman’s interiors team said they reimagined the former site’s Orchard homestead with a contemporary twist. &nbsp;

“The design draws on the nostalgia of the past orchard – timber floors, the warmth of a fireplace, the rituals of the homestead and reinvents them for modern apartment living,"&nbsp;Shalala said.

“We have created two tonal palettes, one with pale honey undertones and another with a soft blush inspired by nectar. A highlight feature is the cathedral glass light box, a bespoke design element that re-interprets the classic lantern. It is both beautiful and functional, tying kitchen and bathroom spaces together in a way that feels entirely unique."

Shalala said the&nbsp;day-to-day liveability has been carefully considered, with abundant storage solutions, butler’s pantries, bike storage and joinery designed to simplify routines and enhance comfort.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150510 project_image_fid=352090]

Apartments in Zeste start from $715,000 for one-bedrooms and extend through to expansive three-bedroom Sky Homes priced from $2.25 million. Floorplans range from 59 sqm to 144sqm.

The mix in Essence comprises 41 one-bedroom, seven one-bedroom + Max space, 39 two-bedroom, 40 two-bedroom Breezeway Sky Homes (24 of which include additional Max spaces), and eight three-bedroom residences.&nbsp;

Max spaces are integrated into select residences, offering a flexible room that can be tailored to individual needs, ideal as a home office, children’s play area, or additional storage.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150510 project_image_fid=351881]

Zeste continues Sekisui House Australia’s partnership with Altogether Group, providing sustainable water, power and data services to residents. Passive design strategies include cross-ventilation, deep landscaping and water features that encourage evaporative cooling, aligning with The Orchards long-term environmental goals.&nbsp;

Construction is set to commence on the Zeste buildings in early 2026, with completion anticipated in late 2027 to early 2028.&nbsp;

More than 850 apartments have been sold across the masterplan, contributing to The Orchards community of 1,300 apartments when complete.

Sekisui House Australia launches Zeste, the final stage of its $1 billion Norwest masterplan

A significant addition to the Bella Vista Station Precinct is in the pipeline, with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/landen-property">Landen</a> formally lodging a State Significant Development Application for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/40-memorial-avenue-bella-vista-40-memorial-avenue-nsw-2153">new apartment community on Memorial Avenue</a>.

Positioned beside the Elizabeth Macarthur Creek corridor, the project is among the first major transit-oriented residential proposals within the Metro precinct.

The masterplan, designed by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/turner-studio">Turner Architects</a>,&nbsp;outlines a four-stage delivery, comprising four buildings between four and fifteen storeys, and includes a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, alongside a limited selection of four-bedroom penthouses and terraces.

The project places a strong emphasis on housing diversity and liveability, with apartment sizes ranging from 50 to 180 sqm. The first stage will deliver 213 dwellings, followed by 231 in the second stage. Construction is expected to commence in 2026, pending approvals.

<img alt="Bella Vista Apartments" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="bb3d84b1-d2df-4e26-915a-31b27faf9b1a" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/View02_01-scaled.jpg?VersionId=Gb0AUtZ3VXsLxrqUaw_AwT_vcBwQ_FJu" />

As the first transit-oriented development (TOD) in the precinct, Landen’s Bella Vista community has been designed to align closely with the surrounding Metro infrastructure. The proposal integrates new pedestrian and cycling paths, a new bridge over Elizabeth Macarthur Creek, and direct access to Bella Vista Metro Station.

Lush communal amenities are also central to the design. 'The Grove' and the 'Garden Link' will create landscaped community areas that reflect the area's agricultural heritage and provide direct access to the creekside.&nbsp;

The ‘Garden Patio’ is conceived as a multi-use indoor-outdoor facility offering a gym, study nooks, and communal lounge spaces.&nbsp;Rooftop terraces across the buildings will offer views to the Blue Mountains and Parramatta skyline.

<img alt="Bella Vista Apartments" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="778da409-d5cf-4e7d-9ba9-0c36990bf0b4" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/landen-bella-property-image.jpg?VersionId=ukPpmVcHF71xRc7U3MUT5rtGwOsntMMz" />

Landen’s Head of Property, Shane Harding, said the proposal highlights the developer’s precinct-scale ambition.

“As the first TOD proposal in Bella Vista, it highlights Landen’s ability to pioneer precinct-scale projects, integrate housing with infrastructure, and deliver outcomes that align with government priorities,” Harding told the Daily Telegraph.

The project arrives at a time of rapid growth in Western Sydney, with Bella Vista alone forecast to more than double in population by 2046. The development’s location, between the Bella Vista and Kellyville Metro stations, positions it as a connected lifestyle hub for families, professionals and downsizers seeking access to transport, schools, and employment centres.

Pending approval, the development is slated for completion in 2028.

Bilinga

Luxury penthouse offerings have become a must within Gold Coast apartment developments, and the latest project by Pacific View is stepping up to the plate with Navini.&nbsp;

Situated within the sought-after suburb of Bilinga, Navini takes advantage of its beachfront position, nestled between Currumbin and Coolangatta, and the village-like atmosphere of Tugun.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113047 project_image_fid=206626]

Spanning two levels, Navini delivers two penthouses, the North and South Penthouse, which sit atop a further 13 apartments.&nbsp;

Delivering an expansive 445 sqm of living space, access to the residences is via a direct lift, with the crowning jewels of the project designed to embrace the indulgent sense of lifestyle penthouse living is supposed to offer.&nbsp;

Designed by Boker Architecture and the award-winning studio Boris Design, the penthouses feature four-bedrooms, in addition to four-bathrooms and two car spaces, with residents set to benefit from further amenity in the form of an exclusive rooftop master suite and private plunge pool.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113047 project_image_fid=206632]

The expansive living spaces are made up of a refined palette inspired by the neighbouring coastline, with custom joinery, timber flooring, stone benchtops and premium Miele appliance fitting out the residences.&nbsp;

Construction is due to kick off shortly on the project, with Groupline Construction set to bring over 60 years of experience to the build.&nbsp;

Completion of Navini is slated for the second half of 2024.

Leading south-east Queensland developer Siera Property Group has purchased a prime absolute beachfront site at Bilinga on the southern end of the Gold Coast for $16 million.&nbsp;

The 1,214 sqm at 303 Golden Four Drive has existing development approval for an 11-storey residential building comprising 19 three and four-bedroom apartments and penthouses, and premium resident amenities.&nbsp;

Siera Founder and Managing Director, Brent Thompson, said the site’s beachfront location, existing DA approval and advanced construction negotiations added significant value and made it a strategic addition to the group’s growing Gold Coast portfolio.&nbsp;

“The existing development approval is 50 per cent higher than other existing approvals in the area, enabling the penthouses and apartments on the upper levels to access sweeping ocean views, north to the Broadbeach-Surfers Paradise skyline and out to the hinterland mountains,’’ Thompson said.&nbsp;

“The existing approval also cuts 12 to 15 months off our project timeline, allowing us to move quickly on construction.&nbsp;

“We have been talking with several builders who are keen to be involved in this project, with one highly engaged builder working toward a June 2023 start.”&nbsp;

pipi[smartcode_project:default project_id=138311 project_image_fid=217333]

Thompson said Ellivo Architects, who completed the original development application, are continuing on the project and will soon lodge a minor change to the DA to improve the floor plans for the new project, <a href="/new-apartments/pipis-bilinga-303-golden-four-drive-bilinga-qld-4225">Pipis Bilinga</a>.&nbsp;

“We are leaving the rest of the building design untouched as it already is very beautiful,” he said.&nbsp;

“Sites with direct beach access are becoming increasingly rare and our research demonstrated a growing undersupply of luxury apartments in what remains an affordable beachside suburb.&nbsp;

“Absolute beachfront at Bilinga generally is between $13,500-$15,000 per square metre, compared to other areas of the Gold Coast that command up $20,000 per sqm.’’&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138311 project_image_fid=217334]

Antonio Mercuri, of development site amalgamation specialists GV Property Group, sold the prime site. Mercuri said the site offered a rare proposition which doesn't come around often.

"True uplift was supported here from its unique 11 level approval, where the majority of projects are maxed out at seven or eight levels in the area," Mercuri says.

"The approved DA brings a quality designed building that is backboned by the A-Grade beachfront position in the highly demanded southern Gold Coast."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138311 project_image_fid=217340]

Mercuri and his team sold&nbsp;309 Golden Four Drive, now Si Bilinga, and then 313 Golden Four Drive, now the apartment project Navani, and neither project pushed for the 50 per cent uplift in height that that 303 Golden Four Drive&nbsp;achieved.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The <a href="/new-apartments/pipis-bilinga-303-golden-four-drive-bilinga-qld-4225">Bilinga development</a> will be Siera’s third tower development on Gold Coast.&nbsp;

The group’s sculptural 22-storey Tapestry development on Chevron Island is now selling and last month Gold Coast City Council approved its application for a 25-storey tower on Enderley Avenue in Surfers Paradise.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108641 project_image_fid=192964]

“Siera has made a long-term commitment to the Gold Coast, delivering high standards of design and lifestyle amenity in established locations,’’ Thompson said.&nbsp;

“Our niche is identifying locations that are undervalued and are commencing their "coming of age" and we then look to design, or in this case modify the design, to suit our future residents.&nbsp;

“Our vision for Bilinga is to provide a premium owner-occupier experience that reflects the area’s relaxed beachside lifestyle, with all residences enjoying high-end facilities and uninterrupted ocean views. It will be as unique as it is stunning.”&nbsp;

Bilinga and neighbouring Tugun and Kirra are undergoing a significant regentrification with several new cafes and restaurants under development. The location is also close to local surf clubs, Southern Cross University, Gold Coast Airport and the Coolangatta-Tweed Heads entertainment precinct.&nbsp;

The 1,214 sqm at 303 Golden Four Drive has existing development approval for an 11-storey residential building comprising 19 apartments


Siera secure beachfront Bilinga site for third Gold Coast apartment development, Pipis Bilinga

The enviable beachfront enclave of Bilinga is heating up as a hotspot for developers.&nbsp;

As developers look to line the golden stretches of the Gold Coast and beyond, Bilinga has positioned itself as one of the most sought-after spots.&nbsp;

Located just moments from the bustling townships of Tugan and Coolangatta, Bilinga offers a retreat from the outside world while remaining connected to some of the best the Gold Coast has to offer.&nbsp;

From beachside cafes to retail, gourmet restaurants and bars with an ocean view – the southern Gold Coast has it all. There are beachfront dining experiences, casual coffee spots, and after dark hotspots within easy reach, as well as boutiques within walking distance and major shopping centres a short drive from home.

Golden Four Drive is the best and most sought-after street, with some developments touching the sand.

We’ve taken a look at some of the best residences coming to the enviable Bilinga.

<h1>NUSA&nbsp;</h1>

Nusa is a rare offering to hit Bilinga. The development of just six house-sized villas at 135 Golden Four Drive span a generous 240 sqm to 260 sqm, and feature Palm Spring-inspired interiors by&nbsp;Mi Design Studio.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113528 project_image_fid=203315]

Crowning each villa is a private rooftop terrace on the upper level, boasting north easterly aspects with ocean views, along with a kitchenette/bar and servery and a multi-purpose room.&nbsp;

Select apartments can also elect to have a private terrace pool, while exclusive yard space will also be provided, perfect for resident’s with pets.&nbsp;

What's for sale in Bilinga, Gold Coast's pared back, popular beachfront enclave

It's not just buyers who are lining up to head to up to the Gold Coast, it's developers too.

The Sydney-based builder developer Arena Property Group, who have a long history of developing across the whole of Sydney, have just kicked off their first project on the Coast, making the move north for the lifestyle on offer.

"It was a bit of a change of direction but ultimately what has led us, and so many people particularly over the last few years, is the relaxed lifestyle the Gold Coast offers," Arena Property Group says.

"It has all the beauty, and the beaches, without the density or the busyness of the city."

Arena kicked off their Gold Coast development journey in Currumbin which has development approval. They've recently launched it's second project, LANA, in the quiet southern Gold Coast pocket Bilinga, just north of Coolangatta.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135208]

The 23-apartment absolute beachfront project on Golden Four Drive, Bilinga's best street, was designed by BDA who were inspired by the pure beauty of Bilinga.

"The coastal palette of vertical and horizontal timber-look louvres and a render finish to match the beach beyond will provide an elegant and timeless boutique residential development," BDA note.

There are nine three-bedroom apartments in the seven-level building, and 14 two-bedroom apartments, which start from $1.15 million.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135208 project_image_fid=207629]

The building is crowned by an infinity edge rooftop pool, and a level nine communal space aimed at working from home or socialising on the resident's terrace.

Arena Property Group says that Bilinga offers a family-friendly area, at an equally affordable price point.

"If you go north or south, you're not getting much change out of $4 million if you're looking for a true beachfront apartment," the company note.

"While Kirra, Rainbow Bay are high demand areas, there's no apartments on the beach. That is something Bilinga has, which is rare for the Gold Coast. We're not developing anymore beachfront land, so anything fronting the sand will always be sought-after"

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135208 project_image_fid=207639]

Arena are hoping to get the go ahead for KORA, a collection of just seven apartments on Pacific Parade, facing Currumbin Beach.

The Arena team really wanted Currumbin to be the first spot the team developed in.

"We've always loved coming up for holidays to Currumbin.

"Gold Coast living is still very much preserved in Currumbin. Where other beach suburbs have become a bit of a concrete jungle, Currumbin has held onto what makes it special.

Arena knew the level of commitment to keeping the enclave that way, so he knew that there was going to be some resistance for a new development.

But there was a strong support from council for the project, which was designed by Plus Architecture to blend seamlessly into the current surrounds.

The town planning report suggested the&nbsp;architectural philosophy paid homage to the traditional ‘timber and tin’ beach shacks, evoking the relaxed sense of beachfront living, embracing high-quality, sub-tropical design which blends seamlessly into the beachside character of the site and its setting.

Beachfront Bilinga apartment project LANA launches

It's a sought after pocket of the Goldie for a reason, with sprawling stretches of golden sand lining the shores of Bilinga.&nbsp;

As new and absolute beachfront apartments come few and far between in the tightly held Gold Coast market, luxury coastal developers, Pacific View may have just launched one of the enviable project to date.

The group are no strangers to the exclusive pocket, with their latest project marking their fifth venture into the Bilinga waters.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113047 project_image_fid=206666]

Climbing seven-storeys, Navini will deliver absolute beachfront living, with 13 half-floor residences and two two-level penthouses.&nbsp;

The 313 Golden Four Drive site will boast sprawling layouts, ranging from 274 sqm to 444 sqm, with three or four-bedroom plus multi-purpose room floorplans.&nbsp;

“Our masterfully crafted residences are inspired not only by the places we create, but by how they enrich the lives of the people who call them home,” Pacific View say.&nbsp;

“Our approach delivers house-sized luxury coastal residences for the owner-occupier, boasting large spaces that seamlessly complement the natural environment to capture panoramic pacific ocean views stretching from Coolangatta to Surfers Paradise and beyond.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113047 project_image_fid=206633]

Facing east and embracing the morning sun, Navini captures the expansive views that frame the iconic beaches from Coolangatta to Currumbin.&nbsp;

One ground floor level apartment will benefit from its own courtyard and pool, with the remaining stock spaced out with two apartments per floor.&nbsp;

The two dual level penthouses will encapsulate the ultimate sense of luxury throughout, while taking in panoramic ocean views from Surfers Paradise to the peeling point breaks of Kirra and Snapper Rocks.&nbsp;

For ultimate exclusivity, each residents’ will also enjoy direct lift access into each of the homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113047 project_image_fid=206629]

In a collaborative effort, Navini has been crafted by Bokor Architecture and award-winning studio Boris Design, with interiors by Studio Collective.

Born out of a love of nature, Navini incorporates an abundance of natural light, while featuring&nbsp; smooth contemporary lines and curved details.

Internally, a refined colour palette fuses with timber flooring and stone bench tops, to create an elegant coastal design, complimented further by high-quality joinery and Miele appliances.

Entertaining spaces seamlessly flow from kitchen, living and dining out to the balcony to blur the lines between inside and out, with each terrace-style balcony equipped with built-in barbecues.&nbsp;

“Navini is inspired by the glistening ocean waves and the rolling sand dunes. The interior palette is subtle and inviting, understated in its connection to the surroundings,” says Studio Collective’s Casey Talbot.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113047 project_image_fid=206182]

A private east facing communal pool and lounge area will be located on the ground floor, in addition to residents benefitting from easy access to the neighbouring beach.&nbsp;

Navini is located on the absolute beachfront, midway along Golden Four Drive, between Tugun and Kirra Beach.

An eight-kilometre ocean pathway passes on the doorstep of the site, extending from Currumbin Point right down to Rainbow Bay and Tweed Heads.

For bathers and board riders, world class point breaks can be found at The Alley, Kirra, Snapper and Greenmount, all of which are within five minutes from Navini.

Major shopping can be found at Coolangatta, along with a smorgasbord of cafe’s and surf clubs scattered along the coastal strip, while the Southern Cross University and International Airport are within a three-minute drive.

Construction is soon to commence with South-East Queenslander’s, Groupline, handling the build, with completion slated for June 2024.

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=113047]

The 313 Golden Four Drive site will boast sprawling layouts, ranging from 274 sqm to 444 sqm, with three or four-bedroom plus multi-purpose room floorplans. 

Navini launches in sought after Gold Coast pocket 

The boom in the southern Gold Coast property market has seen buyers encountering at least one of two problems; a shortage of quality stock, or anything priced under $2 million.&nbsp;The high demand from locals and interstate purchasers has seen beachside projects that may have been on the market for six months usually, sell-out in half of that time, some even selling out after a database send. That’s left buyers waiting and wondering when the next opportunity will be to buy into the highly coveted coastal strip.

The high prices being achieved for apartments has resulted in land becoming more and more difficult to find, and more expensive. That, paired with continually problematic build costs, makes it difficult for developers to enable boutique projects to stack up. They inevitably must pass those added costs onto the buyers, who are now paying a premium to be a part of the southern Gold Coast lifestyle.&nbsp;

But a savvy purchase of a prime Bilinga site by a local development team means Nusa, a collection of just six luxury villas a stones throw from the beach, can offer something that nowhere else in the immediate vicinity can.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113528 project_image_fid=203315]

“With substantial increases in land value and construction costs since acquiring the site, we don't see villas of this size, quality and proximity to beach being repeated at these prices," Matt Thompson from developer Coastech Projects says.

Olindah Property Group's Nicole Riley says there's nothing like this kind of development on the southern Gold Coast, certainly not east of the Gold Coast Highway, for under $2 million.&nbsp;

Prices at Nusa start from under $1.8 million for 243 sqm, and the attractive price point saw three of the six villas sell almost immediately when Olindah fired out the opportunity to their database.&nbsp;

Demolition is soon to start on the 760 sqm site, which currently homes an original block of flats dating back to the 1970s. Genco Construction will be on site next month, with new residents being able to move in by September 2023.&nbsp;

Genco and the developer, veteran local builder turned developer Coastech, are the same team who delivered the luxury home, The Bilinga Hideaway, down the road at 173 Golden Four Drive, which was completed earlier this year. The coastal home recently sold for just under $3 million - and Riley says it's been a confidence booster for prospective purchasers to be able to point to one of the best houses in Bilinga as a completed development with the team also taking some learnings to fine tune their target market.&nbsp;&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113528 project_image_fid=203317]

Thompson says the team are delivering the same level of quality at Nusa.

“We identified a gap in the market for right-sizers looking to transition from their family house into a maintenance-free beachside lifestyle without sacrificing on size or quality," Thompson says.

"So, we decided to take a unique approach for a development, by under developing the site to pave the way for an ultra-boutique project of just six spacious villas, being the perfect hybrid between a house and apartment.

While there's a lot of exciting projects coming or underway in Bilinga, Nusa is the only non-apartment project, so we have a really unique&nbsp;point of difference for buyers” Thompson adds.&nbsp;

Just three Nusa villas remain, priced at $1,799,000 (Villa Two), $1,899,000 (Villa Three), and $1,929,000 (Villa One), each with a unique offering. Villa One has street front appeal and the option to add a plunge pool to the rear. Villa Three has been designed with northeast balconies to optimise ocean views.&nbsp;

Each villa has three bedrooms across 240 to 250 sqm of usable space, which includes two designated living areas.

The main living, kitchen and dining area is on the first level, and the three bedrooms on level two. Level three can be a multi-purpose space, with the option to have a fourth master bedroom, a second living area, a gym, or a home office. This level opens to a rooftop terrace with a kitchenette and views over the beach. The ground has a double car garage, storage and exclusive use yard.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113528 project_image_fid=203316]

"Our owners get the luxury of a private double garage and an exclusive yard space while still capturing ocean views at a reasonable price," Thompson says.

"For most owners, Nusa will be one of their last property purchases, so we future-proofed each home by including private lifts," Thompson says.&nbsp;

Confirming the prime location, two of the buyers are from arguably the two best street's in their suburbs. One downsizer family is set to move from Palm Beach's Jefferson Lane, the other is building on Hedges Avenue, Mermaid Beach's millionaire's row.&nbsp;

The third purchaser came from Brisbane and intends to enjoy the villa for themselves when it's completed in mid-2023.&nbsp;

"We're very fortunate in that the property market in Sydney and Melbourne is seeing a modest correction, whereas the Gold Coast isn't suffering the same fate," Riley added.&nbsp;

"There's still new people moving here, wanting to park their money in the blue chip Gold Coast coastal strip, as they see long term growth in the area.”

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=113528]

Olindah Property Group's Nicole Riley says there's nothing like this kind of development on the southern Gold Coast, certainly not east of the Gold Coast Highway, for under $2 million.

Nusa Bilinga: Offering a rightsizer lifestyle which can't be repeated

A collection of former footballers have teamed up to make their Gold Coast development debut, and they've picked one of the Coast's most emerging spots.

Former Socceroo and Sydney FC legend Alex Brosque has teamed up with current Sydney FC captain Alex Wilkinson and former footballer Brendan Renaud to create a boutique development on Bilinga's Golden Four Drive, just one row back from the beach.

The plans, lodged through an entity Bella Felicita, have been put together by Gold Coast design studio, Impact Design, who note in their design statement that the&nbsp;contemporary design respects the surrounding coastal environment whilst also providing an increased density of living.

<img alt="The plans for Golden Four Drive" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="1c5c42a7-5ab0-4e01-8369-43ca887456a4" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-09-02%20at%209.16.58%20am.png?VersionId=DLuqeUWwNaEmQztcRntTamJMox4ke_CF" />

"The considered details of the facade will enhance the neighbourhood of Bilinga and the streetscape of Golden Four Drive," the report reads.

"The built form was designed to make privacy a priority while still allowing each unit to capture potential views. The facade partially shuts off to the noise and harsh western sun while still allowing glimpses of the mountains beyond and opens up to the eastern pacific ocean views.

"The materiality, colours and form of the building have been carefully considered in keeping with the coastal locality. Light tones and soft curves resemble the undulating sands and waves of the nearby beaches."

<img alt="The striking facade" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="57b5192d-d3b7-41f8-ac2c-bb2fae61de18" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-09-02%20at%209.17.13%20am.png?VersionId=zPcs2o9RgcnOKerVP8cV3h4IsiBnWMqr" />

There will be just 11 apartments, including two penthouses, across seven levels. The apartments cater for families given their size, Impact Design suggest.

The building is mostly three-bedroom apartments, with the exceptions a two-bedroom apartments on the ground level and the two four-bedroom, full floor penthouses. The top penthouse has its own private rooftop terrace with a spa.

Each apartment features living spaces which flow to outdoor entertaining areas.&nbsp;

<img alt="The plans for Golden Four Drive" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="42327b05-a913-406b-b592-46a00dae4fd4" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-09-02%20at%209.17.17%20am.png?VersionId=JSGqBQZduRedxk_4nXGJBnHISl2OCN7M" />

The 759 sqm block currently homes&nbsp;a two-level brick and fibro home which will be demolished before construction. Next door is a three-level brick duplex which is also soon to make way. That will be replaced by a new for a six-unit, four-level townhouse development.&nbsp;

Town Planner, Zone, said it is evident that the site is located within an urban area that is extremely well located with regard to proximity to high frequency transport, commercial services, retail services and public recreation space.

"Commercial land uses are located in Coolangatta to the south, and the Neighbourhood Centre Zone of Bilinga to the north-west," Zone's report read.

"The site is highly accessible with excellent links to surrounding road networks, high levels of walkability, and a range of bus services along Golden Four Drive."

&nbsp;

There will be just 11 apartments, including two penthouses, across seven levels. The apartments cater for families given their size, Impact Design suggest.

First look: Former Socceroo's set for first Gold Coast apartment development

There&#39;s not enough development sites to go around at the moment on the Gold Coast, as developers scramble for their next project amid quick sell-outs.

Ignite Projects boss Josh Foote reckons prices have just about doubled in the last 12 months, as vendors expectations continue to grow.

GV Property Group, the site amalgamation specialists, are expecting high demand for their latest off-market listing, a near beachfront development opportunity in Bilinga.

The 795 sqm site, at 135 Golden Four Drive, previously had approval for 12 apartments, however the site is being sold with a scheme in place for a boutique development of 20 luxury apartments, designed by EMK Architects.

GV Property Group&#39;s Luke Reaby says there&#39;s a limited number of luxury projects on the market in the area, with very limited planned beachfront supply.

&quot;We are getting calls every day around beachfront sites, however these sites come with significant premiums and insatiable competition&#39;&quot;, Reaby says.

<img alt="" height="788" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/bilinga_3.jpg" width="1200" />

GV Property Group has an expressions of interest campaign running to October 29.

The Bilinga market has been relatively untapped compared to its neighbouring areas of Coolangatta and Palm Beach.

The nearby Si Bilinga apartment project, by developer IDS Property, spans nine levels and has 15 apartments designed by Gatehouse Architects. That sits a few hundred metres up the road&nbsp;at&nbsp;309 Golden Four Drive,&nbsp;previously sold by GV Property Group last year.

Sherpa Property Group sold out their yet-to-be-built&nbsp;202 Perspective, the boutique five whole-floor apartment, which is less than 500 metres away at 202 Pacific Street, on the beachfront.

Sherpa has announced they are looking for four sites in 2022.

Both Si and 202 Perspective have similar zoning and development potential to the current opportunity, Reaby advises.

Two months ago, GV Property Group also sold 55 Golden Four Drive off-market to Brisbane Developer,&nbsp;Cielo Group, which is&nbsp;poised&nbsp;to create nine full-floor luxury apartments&nbsp;

CBRE&#39;s Nicholas Clydsdale says the heightened demand from all types of domestic purchasers has seen smaller-sized boutique projects in demand, with the site a prime example to take advantage of the current market conditions.

<img alt="" height="768" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/bilinga_2.jpg" width="1200" />

&quot;Golden Four Drive is a growth area in the southern Gold Coast,&quot; Clydsdale says.

&quot;This strength is primarily led by a shortage in supply in the area. The site is close to genuine amenity including the Tugun and Coolangatta shopping precincts.

&quot;The lack of new product available, coupled with strong demand for beachside product, has created high levels of pent up demand for high quality residential in this location.&quot;

Clydesdale reckons around $8,500 per sqm to $10,000 per sqm is achievable under current market conditions, if the finish is similar to that of the likes of Bensons Chevron One development, Signature Broadbeach, or Acqua Palm Beach.

He says apartments level four or higher could see better returns given the heightened beach and ocean view potential.

Urbis town planner Patrick Hefferan says the site has strong development potential, particularly for a mid-rise residential development.

Apartment developers queue up as Gold Coast beachfront sites tighten further

The beachfront boom in Bilinga is continuing with yet more apartment development plans filed to the local council.

And success has been had on the tightly held beachfront, which has been starved of brand new stock in the last few years compared to its coastal neighbours.

Mosaic secured a quick sell-out of Bianca by Mosaic at 1 Surf Street, just off the beach, and Cielo Group have secured nearly all of their Bloom apartments on the strip at 55 Golden Four Drive.

The latest plans filed are by a local developer, who bought 301 Golden Four Drive, a 1,246 sqm site on the corner of Pacific Parade, for $4.5 million&nbsp;back in 2017.

<img alt="" height="978" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-07-05_at_7.50.31_am.png" width="972" />

Gatehouse Architects put together the designs for the project, which they noted in their design statement reflects the elegance and architectural vernacular of&nbsp;the Gold Coast coastline.

&quot;The design draws in its natural surroundings and blurs the threshold between interior and exterior spaces,&quot; Gatehouse&#39;s design statement read.

&quot;The vision is to create an address where the building and its occupants embrace the natural local environment synonymous with living in a modern Queensland beach house.&quot;

<img alt="" height="984" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-07-05_at_7.50.39_am.png" width="1002" />

There will be just 17 apartments across the 10-level building, including two two-level beach houses which each have their own private pool. The resident pool is located on the ground level.

A full floor penthouse crowns the building and will have four bedrooms, a kitchen with a butler&#39;s pantry and wine cellar, a home office, a gym, two outdoor areas, one with a barbecue kitchen, and a private rooftop pool.

The town planning report by Enhance Urban Planning noted&nbsp;that the area along Golden Four Drive is subject to an evolving character of mid and high-rise buildings with numerous recent approvals and current applications under assessment.

<img alt="" height="838" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-07-05_at_7.51.04_am.png" width="1646" />

Gatehouse says the&nbsp;architecture for the building has been inspired by the natural forms found in the surrounding environments.

&quot;The building&#39;s&nbsp;form reflects the soft curves formed by waves hitting the coastline and the ripples formed by wind blown sand.

<img alt="" height="802" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-07-05_at_7.50.43_am.png" width="1660" />

&quot;The screens for the building have been designed to focus occupants outlook to the ocean while maintaining privacy from neighbouring developments. The rhythm of the screening for the facade is inspired from the calming and repetitive nature of the sound of waves.

&quot;The buildings materiality has been drawn from the natural palette found locally. The use of timber finishes, natural stones and soft tones and textures reinforces coastal living architecture in its context.&quot;

There&#39;s six developments either on the desk of the local council or recently approved on Golden Four Drive.&nbsp;

Success has been had on the tightly held beachfront recently, which has been starved of brand new stock in the last few years compared to its coastal neighbours.



First look: Bilinga beachfront development continues on Golden Four Drive

The Brisbane-based Cielo Group is continuing to pad out its Bilinga footprint on the southern end of the Gold Coast.

Cielo&nbsp;Group,&nbsp;led by Justin O'Donnell and Azemm Dannaoui, recently launched Bloom, a collection of nine whole floor apartments on Golden Four Drive.

Now they've lodged plans for a similarly boutique project at 90-92 Pacific Parade, just 400 metres up the road. This one however is on the prized beachside.&nbsp;

They've again had Z Architects, their go-to architecture firm in now both Brisbane and the Gold Coast, draw up the plans for the latest project, which will see 19 apartments created across a nine-level building.

There will be just three apartments per floor for for the first three levels, before the tower becomes two half-floor apartments, spanning between&nbsp;180 sqm internal to 248 sqm.

<img alt="" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" height="1008" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-06-07_at_12.12.11_pm.png" width="1828" />

The eighth level will home a full floor penthouse, with a huge 487 sqm of living space with three bedrooms, three living areas, and a multipurpose area.

The roof will be communal, and will feature a gym, dining room, pool, and pool terrace.

The town planning documents noted&nbsp;that the rooftop adopts a high-quality architectural style, with significant articulation, building recesses, modulation, as well as the use of variation of materials and finishes to present as development with high aesthetic value

"The area is characterised by a range of older buildings amongst new mid-rise developments with an emerging built form character of increased intensity within the streetscape," the report noted.

<img alt="" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" height="1042" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-06-07_at_12.12.22_pm.png" width="1856" />

"The area has established street trees and mature Norfolk Pine trees that define the distinct coastal character and assist to balance the built form, provide landscape buffers and pedestrian friendly streets."

Two original houses currently sit on the 1,012 sqm site. They will be demolished to make way for the project.

Just behind the site at 89-91 Golden Four Drive, Sydney-based developer Farshad Amirbeaggi is seeking to create the highest density project in the area. He recently submitted plans for a nine-level, 81-apartment building on 2,024 sqm.

There's 71 two-bed apartments proposed and 10 three-bedroom units, as well as 103 parking spaces and 46 bicycle spaces.
