<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sunland-group">Sunland Group</a> has officially lodged plans for its first Gold Coast apartment project since the departure of the Abedian family from the company three years ago, unveiling a new high-rise proposal for a prominent Broadbeach corner site on Old Burleigh Road.

The application was submitted by an entity directed by Tom Jamieson, stepson of longtime Sunland leader Soheil Abedian, and Riaz Rezvanipour, brother-in-law of Sahba Abedian, Soheil’s son.

Sunland acquired the 1,283 sqm site on the corner of Old Burleigh Road and Armrick Avenue for $9.5 million late last year and is now seeking approval for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/99-101-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">42-storey tower with 81 apartments</a>.

<img alt="First look: Sunland Group returns to Broadbeach with new Old Burleigh Road tower plans" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fea2946d-90ee-4cfc-babe-2a8ad5db2cb6" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/pers.png?VersionId=BV0fihJw31nDIQ8ozY_h3GbS8mxDyhnm" />

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/contreras-earl-architecture">Contreras Earl Architecture</a>, the proposed tower at 99-101 Old Burleigh Road would deliver a predominantly larger-format apartment mix aimed at the owner-occupier market. Plans include 17 two-bedroom apartments, 55 three-bedroom apartments, and nine four-bedroom residences across 35 residential levels.

The development also incorporates three basement levels, four podium parking levels, two levels of communal recreation facilities, and rooftop plant and equipment. A total of 189 car spaces are proposed, significantly exceeding the 90 spaces required under the planning scheme.

The architecture adopts a sculpted, curvilinear form, with deep wraparound balconies and integrated landscaping intended to soften the tower’s vertical expression. The planning report states the building’s “slender footprint/form provides a complimentary yet varied built form within the local streetscape” and contributes to “a varied, yet ordered skyline.”

Contreras Earl noted in its Architectural Statement that from the early stages, the project addressed a fundamental challenge: how to accommodate the required residential yield while avoiding the conventional model of a tower sitting on a rigid, fully resolved parking podium.

“The most direct response would have been to consolidate parking into a singular, flat podium and extrude a repetitive tower above,” the statement said. “While efficient, this approach would result in a consolidated built form with limited engagement with the surrounding landscape and public realm.”

Instead, the conventional podium model was “deliberately rejected”. The architects described the base of the building as “a landscaped architectural condition where structure, planting and circulation are integrated”.

“Rather than presenting a continuous built mass, the base of the building is articulated through a series of concrete planter elements that organise the podium into a fragmented system,” the statement said. “This approach reduces the perceived bulk of the lower levels while establishing a more permeable interface with the streetscape and adjacent open space.”

<img alt="Sunland" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="923fad8d-c960-4527-8fbe-975cf1ddf88d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-25%20at%2010.32.03%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=pngwb0hYOIUpq9vDw6F2EsOiVuHF3DiX" />

&nbsp;

The site sits within the High Density Residential Zone and inside the City of Gold Coast’s unrestricted “HX” building height area, where the planning framework anticipates intensified residential development tied to the expanding light rail corridor. The planning report notes the area is undergoing “transition toward more intense development forms” given its proximity to Broadbeach, Surfers Paradise, and high-frequency public transport infrastructure.

Positioned directly opposite Broadbeach Park and within walking distance of Florida Gardens light rail station, the development would sit among a rapidly evolving stretch of Old Burleigh Road that has become one of the Gold Coast’s most active apartment development corridors.

The application joins a growing pipeline of luxury residential projects reshaping Broadbeach, including nearby developments by 5Point Projects, Polycell, and Graya.

The planning report argues the project contributes toward the Gold Coast’s long-term housing targets under the South East Queensland Regional Plan, which forecasts the need for more than 100,000 additional high-rise dwellings across the city by 2046.

The Minns Labor Government has established the new Bays West Delivery Authority to lead the development&nbsp;of the Bays West Precinct and Blackwattle Bay Precinct.&nbsp;

The Authority is charged with creating Sydney’s newest precinct, a thriving, connected, sustainable hub with White Bay Power Station as its cultural heart. Its vision is to build on the area’s natural, cultural and industrial history to shape a vibrant new neighbourhood.

The precinct will deliver up to 8,500 well-located homes, including a minimum of 10 per cent affordable and essential worker homes. Combine new housing with public open space, opening public access to the waterfront for the first time in more than 100 years, while retaining important deep-water facilities to support Sydney’s working harbour.

Located just minutes from the Sydney CBD and connected to a world-class metro, ferry, walking and cycling links, the Bays West precinct will rebalance housing growth towards well-serviced inner-city locations and help tackle the state’s housing crisis.

The Bays West Delivery Authority,&nbsp;an agency of the Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure, will report to the NSW Minister for Lands and Property who already has oversight of major precinct renewal projects including at Blackwattle Bay and Barangaroo.

As part of the broader Bays West transformation, the Minns Government recently announced that a proposal from Lendlease to redevelop part of the Bays West Precinct has progressed to Stage 2 of the NSW Government’s unsolicited proposals process.

<img alt="Sydney" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2ed71eb9-d8e8-4fa7-b9d1-de4531dcf2f3" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-25%20at%209.42.31%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=IDryFIbped9SNDg72LEN_EecvhUsOPvp" />

The Minns Labor Government has also confirmed the Bays West precinct will have a new suburb name. This will be the first major suburb built in close proximity to Sydney’s CBD in decades and will encompass the area currently being referred to as Bays West, including Glebe Island and the White Bay Power Station. Served by a new Metro station just five minutes from the CBD, it will become one of the most populous suburbs in the Inner West and one of Sydney’s premier cultural destinations.

An early works program is taking shape, which&nbsp;includes the first stages of an international design competition.&nbsp;

The aim of the Bays West&nbsp;International&nbsp;Design Competition is to&nbsp;ensure design excellence is embedded in the project from the start. The competition will deliver an&nbsp;urban framework that defines the character, ambition and long-term identity of&nbsp;this&nbsp;former industrial precinct as it transitions to a vibrant, inclusive and sustainable residential&nbsp;neighbourhood.

The competition will be led by the Bays West Delivery Authority in partnership with Government Architect NSW.&nbsp;

It will launch with an invitation for a global Expressions of Interest, before moving to an invitation-only stage that will be assessed by a panel that&nbsp;will provide advice to Cabinet who will select a winner.

Premier of NSW, Chris Minns said the establishment of the new Authority is the first step in transforming the Bays West precinct into a vibrant, livable suburb minutes from the Sydney CBD and two stops from Hunter St Station on the Metro West line.

“The Authority will deliver well-located homes close to the heart of the city and integrate the new precinct with Blackwattle Bay and the new Sydney Fish Market.

“This is a generational opportunity to build a new suburb on the city’s edge and open the harbour foreshore to the public for the first time in a century.”&nbsp;

Minister for Lands and Property Steve Kamper said the new Bays West Delivery Authority established by the Minns Government will turbocharge the development of Sydney’s newest suburb.

“The Authority is working at a record pace to deliver an international design competition, planning pathways and a financial model so that this development benefits Sydney with well-designed homes in a central location, close to public transport, jobs, entertainment and essential services.

“If we want Sydney to stay liveable and affordable, we need to be bold about using underutilised government-owned land to deliver homes for the future while making sure essential working harbour functions can be accommodated.”

Bays West Delivery Authority established to "turbocharge" Sydney’s newest suburb

Around 400 additional homes could be built at Southwark Grounds on Port Road, lifting total site capacity from 1300 to around 1700 dwellings.

A recently approved code amendment would allow apartment towers of up to 14 storeys in some areas of Renewal SA’s redevelopment of the former West End Brewery.

Renewal SA Acting Chief Executive Shane Wingard said he welcomed the code amendment, with the increase in heights and homes making a positive impact on the supply of high-quality, well-connected housing close to the city.

“By going higher across some parts of Southwark Grounds, we are adding a substantial number of very well-located homes with little impact on project delivery time or planned open space,” Mr Wingard said.

Since the project officially launched in 2025, Mr Wingard said more than 12,000 enquiries had been received about living at Southwark Grounds.

“The very strong early interest we’ve seen since homes were first released in the precinct reinforces our plans to create more housing opportunities,” he said.

The Southwark Grounds code amendment was launched in December last year, with community engagement undertaken over five weeks from January.

It proposed increasing maximum building heights from eight to 14 storeys on the eastern section of Southwark Grounds, and to 12 storeys across the remainder of the site, with minimum building heights ranging from two to four storeys.

The code amendment was implemented through an Early Commencement policy in late January, allowing developers to quickly explore the viability of increased height and housing yield while other planning processes continue.

One of the first developers delivering apartment sites have already finalised redesigns to increase the number of apartments following the code amendment.

Samaras’ development adjacent to the future Colonel Light Park is now planning to deliver 125 apartments across 11 storeys, significantly greater than original plans of around 50 apartments across four storeys.

The developer is also exploring the potential for additional affordable housing outcomes.

Most of the apartments at Southwark Grounds will be delivered within a master-planned precinct on a large parcel of land on the eastern portion of the site, covering around two-thirds of its 8.4 hectares.

Wingard said detailed precinct planning over the coming months may identify further opportunities to increase yield further that could see total apartment numbers at Southwark Grounds, exceed this number.

Affordable homes at Southwark Grounds will also see a net increase, with Renewal SA maintaining its commitment to a minimum of 20 per cent affordable housing across the development.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Civil works have begun across the site, with construction under way on the first new roads surrounding a townhouse precinct in the south‑west corner of Southwark Grounds. This includes Renewal SA’s 17 Founder’s Row homes, which are on track for completion by Christmas.

“We expect to have people living at Southwark Grounds by the end of the year, so delivering roads and public spaces for those residents is among our highest priorities.”

Construction of 40 townhouses off Anderson Street, known as West Village and being delivered by Contour, is forecast to begin in mid‑2026. Kolabb’s Anderson Lane development will follow shortly after, delivering a further 26 townhouses.

Southwark Grounds is a state government‑led urban renewal project now set to deliver around 1,700 homes over the next decade.

Homes will be supported by a supermarket, a range of retail and hospitality offerings anchored by a revitalised Walkerville Brew Tower, a childcare centre, car parking and well‑connected public spaces.

400 new homes planned for Adelaide's former West End Brewery site

Brisbane developer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/cavcorp">Cavcorp</a> has lodged plans for a new mixed-use residential development at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/55-wyandra-street-teneriffe-qld-4005">55 Wyandra Street</a>, Teneriffe, anchored by an 85-metre public laneway designed to reconnect the suburb’s riverfront with the Gasworks precinct.

The buildings, known as Teneriffe House and Teneriffe Lane, would replace the existing Queensland Cotton head office site with a 15-storey residential tower transitioning to eight storeys toward Helen Street. The project has been designed by Plazibat Architects and lodged as a code assessable development application for 93 apartments across a 3,401 sqm mixed-use site within the Newstead and Teneriffe Waterfront neighbourhood plan.

Central to the scheme is the transformation of an existing service easement into a publicly accessible cross-block connection linking Wyandra and Helen Streets. Cavcorp says the new laneway will act as both a pedestrian shortcut and a landscaped civic space between the Teneriffe Riverwalk, ferry terminal, and Gasworks precinct.

<img alt="First Look: Cavcorp unveils Teneriffe House and Teneriffe Lane plans for landmark wellness tower in Teneriffe" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="26e7f058-b065-4de8-b13d-a2b8cb64dfcc" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/bldg.png?VersionId=sELS0ZKYi361oYipUa1BIKfe_.DLZoFV" />

“The revised proposal delivers a legacy public-realm cross-block link, permanently secured for community use, transforming an existing private easement into a safe, high-quality pedestrian connection between the Teneriffe heritage riverwalk and the Gasworks–Long Island precinct,” the planning report states.

The laneway will sit beneath a large subtropical loggia integrated into the podium levels of the development. The design incorporates deep landscaping, water gardens, lobby spaces, business lounges, and ground-floor apartments to create what Cavcorp describes as a climate-responsive “urban verandah.”

The tower itself has been designed as a slender form with recessed floorplates and curved translucent corners inspired by contemporary Japanese architecture. The building height aligns with the Commercial Road precinct controls, which permit towers up to 15 storeys within proximity to Longland Street.

The project will comprise a mix of larger-format apartments aimed at owner-occupiers, downsizers, and families. The proposed apartment mix includes 11 loggia apartments across the lower levels, 50 four-bedroom Sky-Terrace apartments from levels three to seven, and 32 Sky-Pool Homes occupying the upper tower levels. The Sky-Pool Homes will feature private thermal plunge pools integrated into oversized balconies.

According to the application, the apartments are intended to reinterpret the scale and character of Teneriffe’s woolstore conversions and Queensland homes within a vertical residential format.

“The sky-pool homes build on Cavcorp’s previous projects and introduce a distinct apartment typology to Teneriffe, informed by both local and international precedent and responding to an identified market demand for enhanced safety, space and amenity,” the planning submission notes.

A major focus of the proposal is its five-level wellness and lifestyle offering, extending from the basement through to the rooftop.

Amenities proposed include a rooftop Swim &amp; Racquet Club with a 25-metre Olympic lap pool and tennis court, coworking spaces and libraries, golf simulators, wine storage, concierge facilities, business lounges, pet wash areas, and rooftop longevity-focused wellness spaces with spas, outdoor fitness zones, and landscaped terraces.

All parking will be concealed within basement levels accessed from Wyandra and Helen Streets. Cavcorp says the deep-basement engineering approach allows the entire ground plane to prioritise landscaping, pedestrian movement, and active frontage rather than vehicle infrastructure.

The development continues Cavcorp’s concentration in Newstead and Teneriffe, where the Brisbane developer has delivered a number of apartment projects including Lucent, Le Bain, and Luminare, as well as the Long Island Wellness Precinct nearby. Several of those projects have received national design and architecture awards, including recognition under Brisbane’s “Buildings that Breathe” program.

Focus Group Investments has lodged plans for a new apartment development at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/64-70-hanover-street-fitzroy-vic-3065">64–70 Hanover Street</a> in Fitzroy, seeking to utilise the Victorian Government’s recently introduced Great Design Fast Track pathway to accelerate approvals for the project.

The proposal is among the latest developments to emerge through the state-led initiative, which was established to fast-track well-designed residential projects in activity centres and transport-connected inner-city locations. The pathway allows qualifying developments that meet elevated design and housing benchmarks to bypass traditional council planning timeframes and instead be assessed directly by the Department of Transport and Planning.

Designed by SJB, the development will comprise a mix of apartments above activated lower levels, with a strong focus on architectural articulation, landscaping, and communal amenity. The design response seeks to balance the industrial character of Richmond’s former warehouse precincts with a more contemporary residential form.

<img alt="First look: Focus Group Investments taps Victoria’s Great Design Fast Track for Richmond apartments" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="abea51cc-d85b-479e-9aef-a589f3b37ca7" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/ground.png?VersionId=e1Kf8EyPWwyiVumtqQ4rM5S4GpOR3CCz" />

Proposed are 63 new dwellings, a wide ranging mix of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, and townhouses and duplexes. They will be spread across a part-three, part-eight storey building.

The Planning and Urban Context Report by Tract says the development is of an "exemplary architectural standard" and has been carefully crafted by SJB Architects.

"Dwellings&nbsp;will benefit from excellent access to natural light, cross-ventilation opportunities and extensive communal space," the report noted.

The architectural material highlights the project’s integration of landscaped elements and communal spaces throughout the building. The proposal also incorporates sustainability initiatives aligned with the Victorian Government’s push for higher-performing apartment developments under the fast-track program.

The Great Design Fast Track was unveiled by the Victorian Government in 2024 as part of a broader housing supply strategy aimed at accelerating the delivery of new homes. Projects assessed through the pathway must demonstrate high-quality architecture, sustainability outcomes, and housing diversity while being located close to public transport and existing infrastructure.

Focus Group, founder and led by Paul De Lutiis, is increasingly active across Melbourne’s inner suburbs, targeting well-connected urban renewal locations suited to medium and higher-density residential development. The Fitzroy proposal continues that strategy, leveraging the area’s strong transport links, established retail amenity, and proximity to the CBD.

Fitzroy has been one of the most popular spots for developers and buyers in recent years. The likes of PACE Development Group, SMA Projects, Crema Group and Chapter Group, currently selling projects in the suburb.

Joint venture partners&nbsp;Guavalime and Capital Prudential grabbed one of the closest residential development sites to Alderley Station for their latest Brisbane apartment development.

Their new project, <a href="/new-apartments/breathe-residences-alderley-27-lorne-street-alderley-qld">Breathe Residences</a> at 27 Lorne Street, is ideally located near the corner of Samford Road and a stone's throw from the heart of Alderley.

Future residents of the <a href="/architects/loucas-architects">Loucas Architects</a>-designed building will be just 450 metres from Alderley Station on South Pine Road, where there's a number of bus stops heading into Roma Street.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143502 project_image_fid=249940]

Half way between the one, two and three-bedroom apartment development and the station is Alderley Plaza, anchored by a Coles supermarket and also home to Japanese grocery store Genki Mart, Alderley Australia Post, a chemist, and a number of multi-cultural restaurants.

Around 200 metres from the front door of Breathe Residences is the most popular pub in the suburb, the Alderley Arms Hotel, a mainstay for locals and visitors to Alderley for a number of years.

The closest cafe is Brisbean Cafe, close to the entry of the station just over 300 metres away.

Breathe Residences: Inside the location of Alderley's newest apartment development

Yeronga is one of Brisbane's premier riverfront suburbs.

But it hasn't had an influx of new apartments for a number of years, not since the sell-out successes of Gardner Vaughan's five stage masterplan&nbsp;<a href="/new-apartments/venusto-172-venner-road-yeronga">Renovaré</a>.

The latest project is from&nbsp;<a href="/developers/pradella">Pradella Property</a>&nbsp;who in January launched&nbsp;Jardinia, a collection of 87 apartments ideally located&nbsp;only 200 metres away from Yeronga Train Station.

The location puts future residents just steps away from Yeronga's cafes, restaurants, shopping and schools.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=137221 project_image_fid=250613]

The recently refurbished <a href="/developments/yeronga-qld-4104">Yeronga</a> Train Station boasts a direct cross-river rail link and improved accessibility, cementing Jardinia's status as a hub of connectivity.

For the foodies, options start just across Devon St, where Yeronga Bakery Cafe and Teddy J's BBQ &amp; Burgers.

Only 250 metres ahead is Club Yeronga which serves everything from steaks, pasta and wood-fired pizza.

Golly Gosh, known for its thoughtfully crafted brunch dishes and top-notch coffee, is within 800 metres, while Osteria Epoca, where contemporary flavours meet traditional Italian methods, is just a three-minute drive.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=137221 project_image_fid=249210]

For everyday essentials and more, <a href="/developments/fairfield-qld-4103">Fairfield</a> Gardens Shopping Complex is a short six-minute car ride away from Jardinia.

The shopping complex is home to an ALDI, Coles, pharmacy, clinics, and even the Fairfield public library, as well as more cuisine and fast food dining options.

Outdoor enthusiasts will find Jardinia perfectly situated amidst various parks and green spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=137221 project_image_fid=250614]

Yeronga Street Park, with its views of the Brisbane River and the Indooroopilly Golf Club across, is 500 metres west of Jardinia.

The 5.5-hectare Hyde Road Park, only 700 metres north of Jardinia, has walking tracks, a dog-friendly park, playgrounds, and is surrounded by coffee shops. Slightly further afield is the&nbsp;22-hectare, heritage-listed Yeronga Memorial Park which also has a dog park and a playground, as well as a public swimming pool.

Families with school-going children will find convenience in the proximity of Jardinia to various educational institutions. Yeronga State School, St Sebastian's Primary School, Yeronga State High School, and Yeronga Montessori are all less than 650 metres from Jardinia, making them easily accessible by foot.

Designed by <a href="/architects/wiltshire-stevens-architecture">Wiltshire Stevens</a>, Jardinia offers one, two, three, and four-bedroom residences spread across five levels. Position Property is marketing Jardinia.

Brisbane builder developer Carbone Developments really know the importance of a well located project.

Their most recent, <a href="/new-apartments/parque-mitchelton-3-mcconaghy-street-mitchelton">Parque Mitchelton in Brisbane's north-west</a>, is ideally located so future residents hardly need a car to get everything and get everywhere they would need.

Set 35 metres from the Mitchelton Station, Parque is just 20 minutes from the city by train, and 15 minutes by car, if it's ever required.

The project of 60 one and two-bedroom apartments starting from $450,000 is also conveniently located within a six-minute walk to Brookside Shopping Centre which has over 100 retailers including Big W, TK Maxx and Target. There's both a Woolworths and a Coles, as well as all the major banks branches. Food and dining options are also aplenty.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140363 project_image_fid=256075]

On top of the food and beverage options in the shopping centre, there's also plenty of hospitality venues around the train station including Mary's Seafood, American diner Miss Kay's , Blackwood Espresso Bar and quaint cocktail bar The Woods Bar.

While there's extensive connectivity and convenience near Parque, there's also significant nature opportunities. The apartments have the backdrop of Michelton's leafy Osborne Road Park.

One of the most popular parks is Terabla Park, just over one kilometre from Parque. That features expansive green areas, playgrounds for children, picnic spots, and barbecue facilities. The park also features walking and cycling paths, making it a favourite for both active individuals and families.

There's also further opportunity for nature walks at&nbsp;Bartley's Hill Reservoir and South Pine River, the latter which runs along Kedron Brook Creek.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140363 project_image_fid=250230]

There's five primary school opportunities within one kilometre of the front door of Parque, as well as five secondary schools. Tertiary education institutions are also within close proximity, with campuses of the University of Queensland and Torrens University Australia around five kilometres away.

Residents at Parque are also treated to extensive amenity within the building in the form of a&nbsp;swimming pool and a gym, as well as a sun deck with barbecue facilities and park views.

The apartments have been designed by Red Door Architecture to make the most of Brisbane's tropical climate, with the open plan kitchen, living and dining areas opening onto balconies.

Economic Development Queensland has given the greenlight for a new residential development in Bowen Hills, on the northern fringe of the Brisbane CBD.

Cintra Property and Core Property Partners will transform the 4,092 sqm site at 23-39 Abbotsford Road into 122 apartments across two eight-storey buildings, with the development anchored by a restored heritage-listed residence.

The historic house is a focal point to the project, dating back to the 1870s.

DKO Architecture took inspiration from the&nbsp;heritage residence as well as Brisbane’s contemporary sub-tropical lifestyle.

All of the two and three-bedroom apartments feature expansive living areas, study zones and oversized balconies oriented to maximise privacy and views.

<img alt="The Abbotsford" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="97df463f-5c20-4e8c-89b7-96d90f05e22a" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202024-02-27%20at%208.36.24%20am.png?VersionId=xE_rcgI8E_gvZGzSq3w1rcbdpV1VgyEe" />

Core Property Partners Managing Director Nathan Andersen said his company would deliver The Abbotsford to the elevated site, only 3km from the CBD, that provides inner city convenience within a suburban landscape of large historic residences.

“The Abbotsford has the incredible advantage that comes with having Brisbane’s best food, retail and entertainment precincts on its doorstep, while maximising the outlook and views that comes with its elevated location,” Andersen said.

“The existing heritage residence, which is more than 150 years old, will undergo a meticulous restoration to become the central hub of the two boutique buildings, connecting the residential spaces with shared recreation areas and landscaped gardens on the ground level.

“This emphasis on lifestyle and wellness continues on both rooftops, which feature their own entertainment areas with pools, yoga lawns and open spaces to take in the outstanding views.

“Liveability is key, with the spacious apartments designed to a high standard of excellence, all cleverly capturing natural light, large living spaces and substantial storage. Coupled with direct access to rail and bus, The Abbotsford will become a great place to live.’’

Andersen said The Abbotsford’s location within the Bowen Hills Priority Development Area, on the doorstep of major transport, employment, health, retail and dining precincts, added to the liveability and amenity infused throughout the project’s design.

“Residents will enjoy access to the city’s best entertainment, dining and retail precincts, from the precincts of James Street, Gasworks and King Street, to the culture and commerce of the CBD itself."

The site is located opposite Bowen Hills train station, two stops from Central station with connecting lines across the city, including both airports, and is within walking distance to the RNA Showgrounds and Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital. Major bus routes can be accessed from stops metres from the entrance of The Abbotsford.

Oakridge Property Group is gearing up for the launch of its Upper Mount Gravatt apartment development, Pavilion The Residences.

<a href="/new-apartments/pavilion-the-residences-upper-mount-gravatt-110-klumpp-road-upper-mount-gravatt">Pavilion The Residences</a>,&nbsp;alongside Mimosa Creek nature reserve,&nbsp;encompasses three five-level pavilion-style buildings, which are set to replace a two-storey residence currently occupying the site.&nbsp;

Pavilion The Residences will home 144 apartments with a diverse range of configurations. There are 52 one-bedroom, 72 two-bedroom, and 20 three-bedroom units.

Oakridge enlisted <a href="/architects/mas-architecture-studio">MAS Architecture Studio</a> to craft the design for the Pavilion, employing a sub-tropical aesthetic marked by profound balcony overhangs and strategic fenestration—prioritising solar aspect, orientation, and harmonious integration with the natural surroundings. Louvred screens on west-facing sides not only filter sunlight but also ensure privacy for residents.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134587 project_image_fid=238079]

Towers one and three, located along the south and north boundaries, have mostly rectangular shapes. The central tower, aligned with the west boundary, is mainly square.&nbsp;

"Our apartments are actually quite shallow in their designs, but have expansive windows, which will let light penetrate well into the apartments and also allow air to circulate not only within the apartments but also within the corridors of the buildings as well," Nick Simmons, director of MAS Architecture Studio said.

Simmons said that the process for Pavilion has been very collaborative with interior design studio Corner iD and the landscape architect "to make sure our design is holistically gelled together as one entire piece."

"The interior elements actually reflect some of the architectural elements – the texture and materials. The timber and the lightness of those materials are all reflected on the inside as well as the out."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134587 project_image_fid=238078]

The heart of the home, the Smeg-equipped kitchen features stone bench tops and hybrid timber floors, while the adjoining living and dining areas feature recessed downlights. The apartments also have ducted air-conditioning and an audio-visual intercom.&nbsp;

Pavilion The Residences also includes exclusive amenities including&nbsp;a landscaped central courtyard which will be used as a common recreation space. That will feature barbecue facilities and a swimming pool which will sit between each towers lobby.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134587 project_image_fid=238077]

Pavilion The Residences is strategically located less than 15 minutes from <a href="/new-apartments/brisbane-qld">Brisbane</a>'s CBD, with easy access to major transport hubs like the M1 and Brisbane Metro.

<a href="/developers/oakridge-property-group">Oakridge</a> has partnered with local builder developer <a href="/builders/cs-development-group">CS Development Group</a> for the project. The first stage to hit the market will be the Hibiscus Residences.

The rooftop is where the party is at in Brisbane's newest off the plan apartment developments.

No other capital, or city for that matter, in the country commits to putting as much residential facilities on the roof as much as Brisbane. When it's all about the subtropical climate, as much amenity needs to be outdoors.

The trend started small with swimming pools, but now it's full wellness retreats on rooftops, as well as yoga spaces, outdoor gyms, and hot and cold plunge pools. Some even have rooftop cinemas.

We've had a look at the top 10 apartment developments currently on the market with the best rooftop facilities in Brisbane.

The top 10 best apartment rooftops in Brisbane

Queensland boutique property developer Spyre Group&nbsp;has sold half the units of its luxury New Farm apartment development Moray House, including a record-breaking penthouse sale.

<a href="/new-apartments/moray-house-65-moray-street-new-farm">Moray House</a> comprises a total of only six full-floor, four-bedroom apartments with uninterrupted views of the Story Bridge, <a href="/new-apartments/brisbane-qld">Brisbane</a> CBD, <a href="/new-apartments/kangaroo-point-qld-4169">Kangaroo Point</a> and <a href="/new-apartments/east-brisbane-qld-4169">East Brisbane</a>.&nbsp;Prices start from $9 million.

“The starting price of $9 million owed itself to the development’s exceptional location and craftsmanship,” <a href="/developers/spyre-group">Spyre Group</a> Director Andrew Malouf said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105057 project_image_fid=209775]

Designed by <a href="/architects/bureauproberts">bureau^proberts</a>, Moray House's exterior design communes with the surrounding Jacaranda trees, creating an atmosphere described as “akin to living in a tree house’’. Distinguished by full floor-length garden beds, the exterior transitions in hues with the changing seasons, amplifying its organic connection to nature.

Moray House offers Brisbane's largest full-floor residences, boasting expansive living spaces of up to 459 sqm and approximately 27 metres of direct river-frontage.&nbsp;

The interiors are appointed with the highest quality finishes, including Chambord stone, European Oak Herringbone floors, bespoke timber joinery, Italian natural stone, &nbsp;and custom lighting by James Walsh and SOKTAS.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105057 project_image_fid=209770]

Residents will enjoy indoor-outdoor living via open-plan living areas leading out to spacious covered terraces overlooking the Story Bridge, perfect for entertaining or simply soaking in the breathtaking views.&nbsp;

The kitchen features a sculptural natural stone island bench as a centrepiece and is well-appointed with premium appliances by WOLF, Liebherr, and VZUG.

The master suite occupies over 50 sqm with a custom walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite with Brisbane’s city skyline as its backdrop.

“Each apartment can be individually curated for the new owners with custom components that allow their homes to truly classify as ‘one of one’," Malouf added. Custom options include a sky garage, wellness room, gym, media room, his and hers study, and a wine cellar.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105057 project_image_fid=209774]

There will be two apartments with the sky garage feature. The residents of the apartments will be able to pull in off Moray Street, enter a remote-controlled car lift, and drive into their garage in their apartments above the Brisbane River.

“The sky garage will appeal to luxury vehicle enthusiasts who want privacy as well as the additional security of garaging their car in their apartment rather than using regular basement parking,’’ Malouf added.

Situated at 65 Moray Street, Moray House offers direct access to the <a href="/developments/new-farm-qld-4005">New Farm</a> Riverwalk and Brisbane's best metropolitan amenities right at its doorstep.

Construction is already underway, with Spyre Group calling on&nbsp;<a href="/builders/contrast-constructions">Contrast Constructions</a> to handle the build. Moray House is expected to complete in 2025.
