Perth’s new apartment market recorded its strongest quarter of sales since Q4 2021, with 412 apartments sold in Q1 2026 and a record quarterly sold value of $537 million, according to Urbis’ latest Apartment Essentials results.

Urbis said the March quarter result reflects strong, highly product‑specific demand across both ends of the market, from more attainable projects delivering at scale, through to premium stock being absorbed by equity‑rich downsizers.&nbsp;

David Cresp, Partner at Urbis, said the key story in Perth is not demand, it is the market’s ability to convert demand into delivered housing.&nbsp;

“This is the strongest sales quarter since Q4 2021, and it reinforces that demand in Perth is real and it’s local,” David Cresp said. “But the task now is delivery, turning that demand into projects that can actually be built and completed.”&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110291 project_image_fid=302785]

<h2>Affordable product leads, premium demand remains resilient</h2>

Sales in Q1 were led by more affordable projects, with The Boulevard (SKS Group) recording 115 sales in the quarter, the presentation noting this is only the second time a single project has surpassed 100 quarterly sales. The project was able to offer more affordable housing product right next to a train station.&nbsp;

Palmyra West (Finbar) also delivered strong results with 28 sales in Q1, following 84 sales in Q4, with an average price of under $800,000, underscoring depth of demand for well‑located, attainable new stock.&nbsp;

At the premium end, Urbis said downsizer demand is continuing, with the results highlighting Romeo (Applecross, Finbar) recording 75 sales and reaching almost 50% sold in one quarter.

Jual (Shenton Park, Celsius Property) also posted a strong quarter with 28 sales, reaching 39% sold in one quarter.

Urbis noted that Perth apartment demand is not speculative, not investor‑led, and not uniform, describing it as localised, often equity‑driven and highly product‑specific, a pattern reflected in the polarisation between strong “attainable” performers and premium downsizer product.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=148957 project_image_fid=364102]

<h2>Prices underpinned by costs, and the delivery risk is growing</h2>

Urbis said pricing pressure is cost not demand‑driven: construction costs and delivery risk are now a central constraint, with the results noting build costs remain elevated and volatile, and that energy, fuel and labour uncertainty weigh on feasibility.

David Cresp said a growing challenge for private Build‑to‑Sell developers is simply securing a builder in the current environment.

“Developers are really feeling the pressure from a building market that was operating at capacity and securing a builder is challenging,” David Cresp said, adding that even where a builder can be secured, “trying to get to the price that makes the development financially viable is incredibly challenging in the current market.”&nbsp;

Urbis’ broader WA commentary also notes that industry remains at or above capacity with lot and housing creation, and that many builders are limiting new sales to manage stretched workforces and fixed‑price contract pressures, conditions that flow directly into apartment feasibility and delivery timing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108869 project_image_fid=317905]

<h2>Supply: improving later, but still constrained, and Perth lags eastern benchmarks</h2>

While near‑term supply remains constrained, Urbis’ forecast shows completions lifting “Supply is forecast to be back above 1,500 apartments per annum for the first time since 2019”, with 1,775 completions forecast for 2026, and volumes remaining above that level over the following years.&nbsp;

Looking further ahead, completions are forecast to reach 2,500 in 2028, with the report noting 32% of that total is social/affordable, reflecting the role of government‑supported delivery in rebuilding the pipeline.&nbsp;

However, Urbis said Perth remains behind comparable markets on pipeline scale. In a national comparison of projects under construction, the report shows under construction Perth Build‑to‑Sell (BTS) at 3,446 apartments versus the Gold Coast at 7,922. Mr Cresp said “The challenge for Perth is how to we grow the delivery pipeline”.

Urbis’ conclusion is that Perth’s market is increasingly defined by product discipline and delivery certainty, with the research identifying “delivery certainty is key” and calling out builder risk and procurement models as core success factors, alongside “timing and staging”.&nbsp;

Perth apartment sales hit strongest pace since late 2021 as builder capacity tightens

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sammut-developments">Sammut Group</a> has secured development approval for its latest Brisbane apartment project, marking the Sydney developer’s next step in expanding its Queensland pipeline following the success of its debut Gold Coast development, Coast.

The approved project at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/44-glen-road-toowong-qld-4066">44 Glen Road, </a><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/toowong-qld-4066">Toowong</a> will deliver a 15-storey riverfront apartment building with 42 residences, significantly increasing the scale of the site’s previous approval for a smaller luxury scheme. Designed by Bureau^proberts, the development will comprise a mix of predominantly four-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments positioned to maximise Brisbane River and city views.

Sammut Director Julian Sammut said the group had been actively searching Brisbane for several years before identifying Toowong as the right fit.

“Brisbane was the right step for Sammut,” Sammut said.

“With the success of Coast we thought we should definitely look to do more in Queensland alone. We then pushed up to look at Brisbane. We've been looking for I'd say two to three years actually and it was hard to find the right location.”

<img alt="Sammut makes Brisbane apartment play" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/f_auto,c_limit,w_1440,q_75/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/field/image/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.27.14%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=dYAVIL7qdcGA8ojvkslSrLjczXFejSSx" />

Sammut said suburbs including New Farm and Teneriffe were considered before the group ultimately focused on Toowong due to its strong downsizer demographic and limited supply of developable riverfront land.

The site was acquired off-market after what Sammut described as a lengthy negotiation and planning process, with the developer pursuing an uplift to the original approval.

“We are DA approved now which is very exciting,” Sammut said.

“We've had our change approval come through and we've obviously doubled the height, 15 storeys plus rooftop. We've got 42 amazing apartments that are going to be coming to market soon.”

<img alt="Sammut makes Brisbane apartment play" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,dpr_2.0,q_auto:good/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.27.26%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=ohkRkY0dIZlqdfME2EZePsCQavRiBadE" />

Bureau^proberts said the design responds to Toowong’s evolving urban character, balancing contemporary apartment living with the area’s established residential identity.

“A place where traditional Queensland living has taken place for centuries; Toowong is seeing a shift of contemporary influence, commercial and retail hubs mixed with well-considered residential offerings – all the while maintaining its character and charm,” the architect noted in planning documents submitted to Brisbane City Council.

The architecture practice said the project’s form was shaped by its riverfront setting, flood considerations, neighbouring building scales, and view corridors.

“They said the mix of four and two-bedroom apartments capture the ‘fundamental qualities of Queenslander living,’ translated into the context of a contemporary subtropical building.”

The development sits just off Coronation Drive within walking distance of Toowong’s retail precinct and the upgraded Regatta ferry terminal, while also benefiting from proximity to the incoming green bridge connection to West End. Sammut said the accessibility and amenity offering were central to the site’s appeal.

The approval adds to growing residential activity along the Toowong riverfront, joining nearby projects including Consolidated Properties’ Monarch Residences and Spyre Group’s ARC Residences.

Sammut secures approval for debut Brisbane apartment development in Toowong

Developer Lanevick is heading back into Sydney’s apartment market after focusing more heavily on the luxury townhouse and terrace sector in recent years.

Lanevick, founded and directed by Steve Maroun, is expecting to receive approval in the coming months for a new apartment development in Gladesville, with the aim to launch it to the market later this year.

The 51-apartment project, designed by Studio Johnston, will comprise a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments positioned toward the Hunters Hill downsizer market.

“Traditionally it’s been difficult for people in that market to downsize because there just hasn’t been the right product available,” Maroun said.

“We’re targeting buyers who might have 30 to 40 per cent of their house value sitting in the bank after downsizing.

“They still want good spacious entertaining areas, they still want quality design, but they also want flexibility and the ability to enjoy life a bit more after working hard for a long time.”

The project sits near Boronia Park and within close proximity to the Parramatta River foreshore, an area Maroun says offers more of a Hunters Hill lifestyle than a traditional apartment precinct.

“From a lifestyle perspective, it’s really more Hunters Hill than Gladesville,” Maroun said. “You’re close to the foreshore, close to parklands, and still connected back into the village precinct.”

From level four and above, apartments will capture water views&nbsp;toward Sydney Harbour. Communal amenity will include rooftop entertaining areas, wellness spaces, and a gym tailored toward owner-occupier buyers.

“We’ve really designed these apartments around that buyer coming from the Hunters Hill LGA and what they’re actually looking for in their next chapter.”

The proposed development has also been designed to respond to the changing character of the broader Gladesville town centre, where a growing number of mixed-use and residential proposals are expected to emerge over the coming years.

“Gladesville presented a rare opportunity to deliver a genuinely design-led residential project within an evolving lifestyle precinct, just moments from the growing Gladesville town centre, and we’ve approached the project with a strong focus on architecture, liveability and long-term community value,” Maroun said.

Maroun said Lanevick saw a first-mover advantage within the precinct as planning controls continue to evolve to accommodate greater housing density.

“We think there’s a real opportunity there that hasn’t really been serviced properly yet,” he said.

“There’s going to be a broader evolution of the whole Gladesville village precinct over time, particularly with more activation and mixed-use outcomes.”

The Venus Street proposal will include a commercial and retail component at ground level designed to contribute to that evolving streetscape activation.

“A big part of the thinking was how do you activate that area properly and create more vibrancy and amenity, which is what Hunters Hill has been looking for,” Maroun said.

Lanevick’s focus since 2020 has largely been on smaller-scale luxury townhouse and terrace developments. The developer recently completed Royale Randwick, also designed by Studio Johnston, where prices reached $3.65 million. The project was featured in the UDIA NSW 2026 Professional Development Prospectus and was also named a finalist for Development of the Year.

Lanevick to cater for Hunters Hill downsizers with new Gladesville apartment development

Property developer One Living, backed by former Macquarie banker turned investment manager Chris Green’s investment firm, has unveiled plans to bring more institutional capital into housing to help address the national supply crisis.

The New York-based investor has focused his firm, GreenPoint Partners, on addressing the supply shortage hitting middle market housing in Australia.

It is backing the new One Living business to develop more than 1000 units along the eastern seaboard. The new firm is starting with a development on Mona Vale Road, on the border of Mona Vale and Pymble, in Sydney’s Northern Beaches, with around 140 apartments planned. They are eyeing off more sites across the city.

With cost pressures rising in the industry, One Living’s model is to be a vertically integrated developer-builder, so it can respond directly to the housing gap by removing the cost inefficiencies embedded in traditional residential delivery.

“We are building a platform designed to operate at scale and starting in a market where there’s a clear need for quality, attainable housing,” One Living joint managing director Joseph Scuderi said.

“It’s that missing middle – it’s that attainable end of housing… that’s what most Australians invest into and what Australians can actually afford.”

<img alt="Mona Vale" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="798dfa93-4941-4db6-a696-31e9dc18e81c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-28%20at%202.31.50%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=mKBqi5C_DmeiXS.AtJkcR8LQIxqCqmFi" />

GreenPoint Partners brings years of experience assembling and scaling real estate operating businesses across major markets. And Green sees a big opportunity in Australia.

“For its size, sophistication and importance to the community, Australia’s living sector has remained largely under-institutionalised, which represents significant opportunity,” Green said. “GreenPoint identified that gap, assembled the right team, and is backing One Living to build a platform that is aligned to market needs.”

Green said being a builder-developer would give the company the capacity and flexibility it required to deliver reasonably-priced homes.

“We want it to be at that attainable level; not super high end luxury but at that attainable level,” he said.

<img alt="Mona Vale" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="74a5344a-4b26-4d4a-ada3-056b1220be77" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-28%20at%202.32.15%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=vY8hXHO4reBMdO8ZXMWCNtGZJofUPQ3j" />

&nbsp;

One Living will undertake a component of affordable housing in its schemes, which it will own and operate, and it could also run build-to-rent on some sites.

Green praised local policy settings.

“The NSW government is being very supportive, strategic and pragmatic in terms of how do we generate more supply of housing,” he said. “We think it’s actually positive for development and the bit that’s been lacking at that attainable level is that it’s lots of relatively small private developers, whereas we want to create an institutional platform.”

One Living is also&nbsp;looking at high-density projects and could take on more institutional funding in the future.

“The way we will be able to achieve economies of scale is through size,” Green added.

One Living enters Sydney's new apartment market with Northern Beaches site acquisition

It's been several years since there's been an opportunity to buy a brand new townhome in Melbourne's coastal suburb of Mordialloc. Even apartment developments in recent times have been few and far between in the area.

Local developer LDS Property identified the gap in new housing, securing a site on White Street, directly opposite&nbsp;Woodlands Golf Club Mordialloc. They've recently launched&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/wm-residences-mordialloc-102-white-street-mordialloc-vic-3195">WM Residences</a>, just 13 townhouses which they have already started building.

Projects by Buxton Director Heath Thompson, who is selling WM Residences, says the townhouses x that perfect middle ground be

"Mordialloc residents have had limited options to downsize within the suburb, often forcing them to look elsewhere despite long-standing ties to the area," Thompson says.

"With very little comparable new supply coming to market, projects like WM Residences are well placed, particularly as buyers look to capitalise on current conditions amid constrained supply."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6109]

The development, designed by regarded architecture firm&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/ewert-leaf">Ewert Leaf</a>,&nbsp;adopts a deliberately restrained architectural approach, focusing on simplicity, durability and liveability rather than overt design gestures.

The boutique scale is central to the offering. With only 13 three-bedroom residences, each home is configured to prioritise functional layouts and everyday use, supported by private terraces and secure two-car garages.

Ewert Leaf’s design response leans into a calm, neutral material palette. Interiors are defined by oak flooring, white walls and soft finishes, creating a consistent and understated backdrop. The approach avoids trend-driven detailing in favour of longevity, with an emphasis on natural light and spatial clarity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6110]

Beyond aesthetics, the homes are designed to meet contemporary performance expectations. Each residence targets a minimum 6-star energy rating, incorporating double glazing, comprehensive insulation and all-electric Bosch appliances.

The project’s location supports a walkable coastal lifestyle, sitting within close proximity to Mordialloc’s foreshore, Main Street retail strip and the train station. Local cafés and dining venues, including Suburbia Deli and Hendriks Café, are within a short walk, reinforcing the area’s established neighbourhood character.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6116]

While <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/mordialloc-vic-3195">Mordialloc</a> is often defined by its beach and pier, the project taps into other areas of day to day living, offering easy access to local food, casual dining and transport, rather than positioning itself purely as a lifestyle retreat.

WM Residences reflects a continued trend across Melbourne’s coastal suburbs towards smaller-scale, design-led townhouse developments, particularly on infill sites where proximity to amenity is already established.

With construction commenced prior to its market entry, the project aligns with a growing preference among buyers for developments with visible progress and defined delivery timeframes.

Brisbane off the plan townhouses

Greg Norman's Brookwater championship golf course in Springfield is set for a new neighbour, with multi-residential Queensland developer Azure set to developed a new terrace community next door.

The $72 million townhouse development, Oakmont by <a href="/developers/azure">Azure</a>, will comprise 61 townhouses and will sit on the edge of the eighth hole of the course which Norman designed.

The&nbsp;<a href="/new-apartments/springfield-qld-4300">Springfield</a> project, in the smaller suburb of Brookwater in the City of Ipswich, will offer direct frontages and views over the golf course and beyond to the mountains.

<img alt="Oakmont by Azure" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3b651590-cb3a-4ad6-aa62-86ffcaf83518" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Oakmont%20by%20Azure%20community.png?VersionId=3hajV1fq36WQmW1BaT0309CBKco5HZ4c" />

“We are thrilled to have secured development approval for Oakmont which has already garnered significant interest from the market,” Azure Director Trent Keirnan said.

“Oakmont epitomises the Azure philosophy of creating residences of distinction that are ultimately designed for owner occupiers and investors seeking a quality residential offering.&nbsp;

“A quality terrace home of three bedrooms plus multi-purpose room is the minimum offering for this development, which is complemented by the desirable setting of wide, open spaces that a championship golf course provides.”

<img alt="Oakmont by Azure - Front" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c54bdb85-708d-4cf0-a8df-eff9daae254e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Oakmont%20by%20Azure%20House.png?VersionId=ZWipQ5tZhtZ9fKdKkh2j5aIGekxh0Aba" />

Designed in collaboration with award-winning firm <a href="/architects/plus-architecture">Plus Architects</a>, Oakmont by Azure will deliver four distinct terrace types that respond to the site’s sloping terrain with two and three-level configurations that allow views over the top of the terraces below and across to the golf course.

Each of the residences will either have three or four bedrooms, plus an additional multi-purpose room. All have 2.5 bathrooms and most two-car accommodation.&nbsp;

Oakmont by Azure has been crafted to embrace green spaces, with significant landscaped gardens and front entries, a communal amenity area and a central pedestrian link providing residents with opportunities for relaxation, recreation, and a strong sense of community.&nbsp;

<img alt="Oakmont by Azure - Perspective" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ac4ec3ea-1f3a-4739-91f7-c2c38155a611" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Oakmont%20by%20Azure%20Pers.png?VersionId=6hnf6fKx7KtvBq8LemNCkbC4cbmYYfIl" />

Residents will have access to a wellness pavilion featuring a steam room, sauna, hot and cold magnesium plunges, and a fully equipped gymnasium, as well as a 20-metre lap pool with a lily pond.

The pool area will feature extensive lounging zones, while a recreational lawn has been positioned among beautifully landscaped areas on the 2.36-ha site.

Oakmont by Azure will be built by Azure's in-house construction arm <a href="/builders/azure-build">Azure Build</a>, which has delivered&nbsp;more than 1,000 residences to the South East Queensland market over the past decade.

Azure currently has six projects under construction, including, <a href="/buildings/one-five-six-156-oxlade-drive-new-farm">One Five Six</a> by Azure in <a href="/new-apartments/new-farm-qld-4005">New Farm</a>, Willow by Azure at <a href="/new-apartments/north-lakes-qld-4509">North Lakes</a> and Munro by Azure in <a href="/new-apartments/bundamba-qld-4304">Bundamba</a>.

Construction of Oakmont by Azure is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2025 with completion set for the third quarter of 2026, and forms part of Azure's $1.3 billion pipeline in South East Queensland.

Springfield set for new townhouse development as Oakmont by Azure gets green light

A young Brisbane developer has unveiled the only downsizer project in The Gap.

Construction is already well advanced on Adpen’s new boutique estate, <a href="/developments/forest-glen-qld-4556">Nature’s Edge</a>, offering a rightsizing opportunity in a suburb dominated by large family homes.&nbsp;

Nature’s Edge comprises just nine architecturally designed homes close to bushland with the choice of three or four bedrooms and high-quality fixtures and finishes, located only eight kilometres from the <a href="/developments/brisbane-qld">Brisbane</a> CBD and priced from $1.15 million.

As the only new downsizer development currently underway in the premium pocket, Nature’s Edge will also help to free up existing housing stock for families previously locked out of The Gap market.&nbsp;

<img alt="Brisbane developer bridges the gap for downsizers - Courtyard" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e6b404a9-14ec-48b6-bea3-93a1987215c5" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Lot%202%20-%205%20Courtyard%20Seating_0.jpg?VersionId=Al0dF3XS6oXQ_9_1MMN9147v6RYyImTU" />

Adpen Managing Director Adam Pennisi said Nature’s Edge encouraged empty nesters to embrace downsizing in a close-knit community they knew well and did not want to leave.&nbsp;

“The Gap has been long underserviced in terms of downsizer-friendly homes, meaning older residents were either forced to stay in their current houses or move away from the place they love to find a more suitable home,” Pennisi said.&nbsp;

“I am a young developer but have parents reaching the downsizer stage of life and understand what they’re looking for – the chance to enjoy all the benefits of a brand-new home without the burden of high maintenance."&nbsp;

With the downsizing trend accelerating, The Gap real estate expert Lee Dwyer said there was a desperate need for increased housing options to accommodate the growing population of seniors, projected to reach 6.66 million Australia-wide by 2041.&nbsp;

“The Gap is a highly sought-after location for buyers and we have noticed many seniors want to stay in the community they have planted roots with their children and grandchildren,"&nbsp;Dwyer said.

"Previously, having minimal downsizer stock, this demographic has had to move away. In order to future-proof Brisbane’s property market, developers need to meet this vital housing need, which in turn, provides an entry point for other buyers to get into the property &nbsp;market.”&nbsp;

<img alt="Brisbane developer bridges the gap for downsizers - Dining Kitchen" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="32f2acf8-a700-4398-875f-1179a773f2d3" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Lot%201%20Dining%20and%20Kitchen.jpg?VersionId=zcDQ5r8ATaqNl33xS.eZHY7nU1UVx8w6" />

Designed by architect Nigel Fitton, Nature’s Edge is an exclusive residential estate close to amenity.

The terrace-style homes provide up to around 220 sqm of indoor and outdoor spaces with two bathrooms, walk-in robes, ducted air conditioning, and 2.7m high ceilings.

With $200 million worth of projects in the pipeline, Adpen is focused on providing the best solutions for south-east Queensland’s housing crisis, along with bespoke commercial and childcare developments.&nbsp;

Brisbane developer Adpen reveals downsizer-targeted community in The Gap

Shayher Group's recently completed Indooroopilly townhouse development Long Pocket represents a rare opportunity for buyers to purchase a townhouse on Brisbane River.

Their <a href="/buildings/long-pocket-75-jacaranda-place-indooroopilly">Jacaranda Place development</a> of just 45 four-level townhouses has brought much-needed supply to the townhouse market in&nbsp;<a href="/developments/indooroopilly-qld-4068">Indooroopilly</a>. The latest census data shows less than eight per cent of dwellings in the riverside suburb at townhouses.

What's rarer still is the project is nestled between two golf clubs, St Lucia Golf Links and the Indooroopilly Golf Club, as well as being located right on the Brisbane River.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95798 project_image_fid=198389]

The completed Long Pocket community by <a href="/developers/shayher-group">Shayher Group</a>&nbsp;has been popular with downsizers who want a lower maintenance lifestyle while retaining the space, as well as young families wanting to be in the Indooroopilly school zone.

Long Pocket comprises 45 townhouses divided into two distinct collections: the Rainforest Collection positioned beside Jacaranda Place Reserve and the Riverview Collection overlooking the <a href="/new-townhouses/brisbane-qld">Brisbane</a> River.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95798 project_image_fid=198390]

Each townhouse in Long Pocket boasts a thoughtfully designed layout, starting with a dual garage and storage, a spacious entry lobby, a laundry area, and a powder room on the ground level.&nbsp;

The middle level features an open-plan living and dining area leading out to an entertaining balcony.

The heart of the home is the galley kitchen which features with Carla Grigio stone benchtops, Gaggenau appliances, a fully integrated Fisher &amp; Paykel fridge freezer and a butler's pantry.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95798 project_image_fid=156482]

The top level houses the master suite, complete with a walk-in robe and an ensuite featuring dual vanities, a separate bath, and a shower. There is also a second master suite, two bedrooms, and a main bathroom on the second level.

The townhouses surround an exclusive 22-metre resort-style ground pool, complemented by a sauna and a steam room.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95798 project_image_fid=156480]

Residents are also just a short walk or buggy ride to two 18-hole golf courses, the St Lucia Golf Links and the Indooroopilly Golf Club.

Long Pocket's location places families in proximity to prominent educational institutions such as UQ's St Lucia campus, St Peters Lutheran College, Brigidine College, and Brisbane Boys' College.

All townhomes come with either a deck or balcony along with a ground-level patio area to promote indoor-outdoor living.

Additionally, each home incorporates a 6.6KW solar PV system and an electric vehicle charging station—aligning with sustainable living practices.

Another significant aspect of Treetops at <a href="/developments/kenmore-qld-4069">Kenmore</a> is its commitment to the environment. The development includes an extensive 3100 sqm Environmental Green Zone along Moggill Road, where existing trees have been retained. There will also be 100 new native trees, 300 new shrubs, and 7000 ground cover plants planted across the 32,350 sqm community.

The communal amenities at Treetops, include a central park space, a resort-style swimming pool, and a barbecue entertaining area.&nbsp;

Bike racks are conveniently located to encourage easy access around the community.

The final two stages are now selling, and are both expected to be complete in the coming months.

Queensland developer Azure has secured approval for its&nbsp;new $57 million residential estate at Flinders View.

Azure Director Trent Keirnan says full council approval is another step toward Azure’s mission of delivering townhouse developments to meet the growing demand amidst the current housing shortage crisis in southeast Queensland.&nbsp;

“We are thrilled to have received DA approval for Dahlia,” Keirnan said.

“Azure is especially committed to investing in key growth areas and creating communities that focus on affordability and liveability with the inclusion of prized indoor-outdoor living areas that define the southeast Queensland lifestyle and Dahlia is no exception.

“We are eager to deliver an abundance of residences during a housing shortage and continue to contribute essential housing supply and diverse housing options in a city marked by thriving employment and business opportunities.”&nbsp;

According to data by Urbis and the ABS, in the next two years Ipswich’s annual growth rate is expected to rise 4.2 per cent, with the population expected to exceed 424,000 by 2041.

“Ipswich is currently undergoing a major transformation and is forecast for remarkable growth potential, and we are actively playing our part in meeting the rising demand,” Keirnan added.&nbsp;

<img alt="Azure" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a786c8a6-43d2-4a0f-86b0-ee4231077bda" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202024-02-20%20at%205.22.15%20pm.png?VersionId=9iIJtoT_.4H7hHQc2CFC8FY7PYlNw7q0" />

Once complete, the Dahlia estate will comprise over 100 townhouses consisting of three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms with a mix of six different floorplans on offer.

Residents will also enjoy an array of recreational amenities, including a 686 square meter communal lawn area and a club facility featuring a 15-meter swimming pool with a 5-meter kids splash pool, sun lounges, double day beds, and lush landscape gardens.

Dahlia’s surroundings offer residents a perfect blend of convenience, green spaces, and connectivity, with a supermarket, Cafe 63, a bakery, chemist, and a well-maintained council park with a pedestrian footpath directly across the road.&nbsp;

The approval follows the successful sellout of Azure’s other Ipswich projects, the $50 million Seasons by Azure and the $55 million Munro estate.&nbsp;

Construction is expected to commence in the second quarter of this year with the project set to launch to market next month.

Azure is a privately owned real estate development and investment company that has delivered more than 1,400 terraces, units and residential lots since it was founded in 2014.

The company’s active portfolio of seven developments is valued at more than $500 million, including two luxury high rises in inner Brisbane - One Earle Lane at Toowong which is edging closer to a sellout and One Five Six by Azure at New Farm which set a price record for the inner city in 2022 with its $11.4 million penthouse sale.

Frasers Property Australia is officially transitioning up the iconic Keperra hillside with the second release of elevated homesites at The Quarry to meet buyer demand, as purchasers embrace the opportunity to live in one of the largest urban transformations in Brisbane’s history.

Spanning 48.7 hectares just 9.5 kilometres from the CBD, the $500 million masterplanned precinct is transforming the <a href="/developments/keperra-qld-4054">Keperra</a> Quarry into Brisbane’s most elevated community, featuring a mix of about 500 home and land sites, Rothelowman designed terrace homes, extensive placemaking and shared resort style amenity.

Scott Ullman, General Manager Queensland Development at <a href="/developers/frasers-property">Frasers Property Australia</a>, said interest on release two remained strong and featured a selection of 20 level lots, ready for home construction in by mid-2024.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=141197 project_image_fid=228242]

“Release Two is the first collection of homesites that transition up the hillside of The Quarry and with that comes sweeping views of the D’Aguilar Range and beyond,” Ullman said.

“It’s also positioned close to the recently completed cliffside staircase lookout, which has become a popular exercise destination akin to the iconic Kangaroo Point Cliffs, and only a two-minute walk to ClubQ.

“ClubQ is the heart of The Quarry community, offering elevated, luxury resort style amenities for residents to relax, indulge and entertain, including an entertainer's kitchen, dining room, event spaces, library and work zones”.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=141197 project_image_fid=228247]

Other ClubQ amenities include a 25m lap pool with an adjoining sun deck, sunset lounges and a generous green oval ideal for family occasions. Two additional resort-style walk-in pools with an integrated waterfall and kids splash and play area, and a private wellness centre featuring a fully equipped gymnasium and meditation room will form part of the precinct’s future amenity.

Ullman said future homeowners would be immersed in the landscape and history of The Quarry, while at the same time contributing to the rewilding of the hillside.

“More than 40 per cent of the community is dedicated to existing bushland and newly curated green spaces, resident amenities and nature play spaces, alongside more than 100,000 new plants and trees in a true mission towards regeneration,” he said.

“Homes will front tree-lined streets and beautifully curated landscapes. It will be unrecognisable as a quarry in the fullness of time.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=141197 project_image_fid=228242]

Located in Brisbane’s north-west, Keperra is an established suburb with strong demand for new housing supply due to its proximity to leading schools, healthcare and major transport infrastructure.

The existing Keperra Quarry, which mines granite, has operated for more than 60 years and will progressively curb operations as the development of the residential stages advance.

The lots in release two are priced from $585,000.

Frasers launch second land release at The Quarry

Arana Hills, a safe, unassuming suburb in Brisbane's north-western growth corridor in the Moreton Bay Region, continues to be a welcoming and affordable community amid Brisbane's booming price growth.

It's not often Arana Hills pops up in the same sentence as off the plan development, but JAM Group identified the suburb as somewhere they could develop something that catered for a wide variety of buyers.

They've been creating Nuovo, a multi-stage collection of modern townhouses, and they're now ready to release the next stage after successfully selling out the first.

Nuovo has been designed by Ceccato + Architects. Each of the 19 freehold terrace homes have four bedrooms, stone kitchen benchtops, FRANKE Appliances, Matt Black tapware, and zoned ducted air-con.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=141590 project_image_fid=226630]

While the small suburb spans just 362 hectares, with 20 per cent of that taken up by parks, there's a big difference between living north of the suburb, on the fringe of Bunyaville Close Reserve, and living in the south, where Nuovo sits.

Nuovo is located at 23 Leslie Street, just 800 metres from Arana Hills Plaza where there's an ALDI, Coles and Kmart, as well as a number of food and beverage options like Guzman y Gomez,&nbsp;The Cheesy One Pizzeria, Arana Court Chinese Restaurant and Grounds of Origin cafe.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=141590 project_image_fid=226635]

Families have been attracted to the suburb which has a number of parks, borders national reserves, and has its own, and is in close proximity to, a wide variety of schooling options like the&nbsp;Grovely State School, a TAFE campus

It's just 20-minutes from Nuovo to the city centre by car, while the Grovely transit station, which connects to the CBD in 20 minutes, is 1.5 kilometres away from Nuovo.

Residents of Nuovo will enjoy the proximity of Kedron Brook with its scenic bikeway, as well as plenty of birdlife and clean air in nearby Bruce Smith Park, Leslie Patrick Park, and The Hills District All Abilities Playground—a stark contrast to the smog and traffic noise often associated with CBD living.

The Keperra Golf Course and Westside Sports Club are also conveniently located just 10 minutes away, offering a variety of leisure facilities such as golf and tennis amenities, bowling alleys, pools, fitness classes, and regular golf competitions available with membership.

Nuovo will comprise 80 freehold townhouses when completed.

Arana Hills: Brisbane's undiscovered suburb in the Moreton Bay Region

Stockland's Newport community in the Moreton Bay Region on the Redcliffe Peninsula is well and truly thriving.

Having kicked off development of the 143-hectare masterplan back in 2016, Newport is now a connected community filled with amenity, facilities, and thousands of residents surrounded by the coastal suburb's own canals and lakes.

Newport's own non-tidal, 22-hectare lake is a coastal dream. The lake lends itself to extensive water activities, from sailing to kayaking and even paddleboarding.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107206 project_image_fid=243293]

The well established precinct,&nbsp;under 40 kilometres from the Brisbane CBD and easily accessed by both car and public transport, also recently opened the Newport Marketplace at Lakeview Promenade which offers three precincts; medical, lifestyle, and food and beverage.

There are a number different health businesses including Chrysalis Dental Care, Newport Family Doctors, and Newport Physio and Health, while Serendipity Hair Newport and KLIF Lashes and Brows take care of the lifestyle needs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107206 project_image_fid=243294]

There are five eateries at Newport Marketplace to choose from which cater for any time of day.&nbsp;

Sidonié Patisserie &amp; Boulangerie is the morning pitstop. The French patisserie is open for coffees and pastries from the early hours, but also rolls into the afternoon and evening, with options for a waterfront high tea and&nbsp;European Cuvée, Brut or Rosé Champagne to match.

Si Baby focuses on the flavours of Italy, offering wood fired pizza and fresh hand made pasta. Fishport Newport is one of two fish restaurants, offering waterfront casual dining with premium quality seafood. Completing the food and beverage options at Newport Marketplace is Sushi Hyo, a traditional Japanese sushi train restaurant, and the new Vietnamese restaurant Que Dining.

Newport Marketplace is anchored by an IGA, which operates from 6am to 9pm every day. An extension of the IGA is The Grove Cafe, another option for coffee lovers, and The Leaf, a retailer for home decor and gifting needs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107206 project_image_fid=224781]

There's even more shopping options nearby with the Kippa-Ring Shopping Centre, redeveloped in 2013, which has over 40 specialist stores including a Woolworths, Priceline Pharmacy, and a Gold's Gym. That adjoins the Peninsula Fair Shopping Centre, which has over 70 stores and services, from a HOYTS Cinema to car washing facilities and food and beverage options.

The shopping centres sit next to the&nbsp;Kippa-Ring Train Station which connects the region to Brisbane CBD and Brisbane's international and domestic airports. There's also an extensive public transport network across the Moreton Bay Region for local trips.

The Newport community is also only a couple of kilometres from Kayo Stadium, home of the new NRL team The Dolphins.&nbsp;

Given the prime location at Newport, as well as Stockland's long track record of delivering quality homes for over seven decades, opportunities in the coveted community have been at a premium.

Stockland has saved the best until last <a href="/news/qld/stockland-release-the-lake-residences-with-private-marina-berth-at-newport-qld">with their most recent release</a>, The Lake Residences, a collection of just 15 four and five-bedroom homes each with their own private marina berths.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107206 project_image_fid=224782]

Each townhome has its own private plunge pool and outdoor shower, looking out to Newport Lake. The townhouses, designed by Hollindale Mainwaring Architecture, are well under construction by top tier builder McNab, with residents expected to move in in mid-2024.

The townhouses are ideally located in the Newport masterplan. Their Aqua Street location will put residents&nbsp;next to Lakeview Park, and just a short walk down Lakeview Promenade to Newport Marketplace.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107206 project_image_fid=224783]

Coming out of Lakeview Promenade and heading the other way, residents will meet the&nbsp;AFL Sports Complex and Nathan Road Wetland Reserve.

The Lake Residences have proven popular with those from New South Wales and Victoria who are seeking a lakeside, boatie lifestyle.

Stockland's latest liveability survey shows nearly 90 per cent of residents at Newport call it a desirable place to live, with proximity of local parks and natural environment (97 per cent) and the ease of walking or cycling around the community (90 per cent), the most attractive characteristics of the masterplan.

Stockland Newport was recently awarded Excellence in Masterplanned Communities at the 2023 Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA) Queensland Awards.

Stockland's Newport masterplan delivering the best in lifestyle living

Brisbane-based townhouse developer Azure Development Group is continuing its push for delivering a more affordable housing product in Brisbane's fringe areas.

They've secured a 4.5 hectare infill site at&nbsp;499-507 Anzac Avenue in Rothwell in the Moreton Bay LGA, paying $20.1 million.

Azure, who have a development pipeline of $1.5 billion over the next five years in South East Queensland are planning&nbsp;around 230 townhouses, which will add to their three current projects in Rothwell. The project will have a mix of three and four-bedroom terrace homes. Azure is also considering a two-bedroom product to make their offering even more diverse.

Azure’s portfolio is tackling demand at both ends of the market - from downsizers looking for premium stock in Brisbane’s inner city to more price pointed housing in the key fringe growth precincts.

They have an active portfolio of seven developments, including&nbsp;two luxury apartment projects in inner Brisbane - One Earle Lane at Toowong which is approaching a sellout and One Five Six by Azure at New Farm, which set a price record for the inner city in 2022 with its $11.4 million penthouse sale.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95611 project_image_fid=180226]

Azure’s Acquisition Director Chris Schroor says the acquisition of the Rothwell site builds on the company’s strategy of townhouse developments to meet the growing demand for affordable housing.

“We’re bullish about townhouses and we’re doubling down on our strategy through this acquisition,” Schroor said.

“We currently have three townhouse projects on the northern side of Brisbane, so this will add to that strategy.

“However, in order to meet the affordability criteria, we’re finding that we have to move further out of the Brisbane metropolitan area. Any offerings that we can deliver below $800,000 are selling quite strongly.”

In August, Azure launched the $55 million Munro by Azure which comprises 100 terrace homes in a gated estate located at Bundamba in Ipswich. The sold-out development offered three-bedroom, two-bathroom terrace homes for between $545,000 and $557,000 each.

“Our plans for Rothwell are similar to the Munro project, although it will be stronger from a price point considering the location,” Schroor added.

“It’s important to secure sites such as this that can deliver projects of scale to ensure we can meet the price points where the market dominates at present.”

Azure already has two other Ipswich projects in train – the $50 million Seasons by Azure, comprising 68 terrace homes in the Brookwater enclave in Springfield which is due for completion in December, and a proposed 129-lot project at Flinders View which is still in the planning stages.

Schroor says there's been confidence from all sector of the market, which he says has well and truly returned.

“We’ve had strong sales in the second half, with Munro selling out and the Northlakes development selling strongly.”

The Rothwell project joins Azure’s existing Brisbane northside projects of The Terraces by Azure, a 53-townhouse development at Mango Hill set for completion in January, and Willow by Azure at Northlakes which comprises 76 terrace homes that are priced from $699,900.

Azure plans 230 townhomes at new Rothwell, Moreton Bay site

Nestled on the cusp of the South Bank cultural precinct and in close proximity to the heart of Brisbane's CBD, West End has become a vibrant and sought-after suburb that has recently been catching the eye of anyone who visits it.

Recent population statistics show those who have visited have wanted to stick around.&nbsp;Population has boomed over the five years to 2021, with the most recent census data from the ABS showing more 50 per cent growth in residents calling West End home.

Now there's over 15,000 people who live in West End, which has become possible due to the development of residential towers and communities like&nbsp;ARIA Property Group's completed Tree House and&nbsp;Pradella's&nbsp;Montague Markets &amp; Residences.&nbsp;

Over 75 per cent of the population live in an apartment, compared to the 62 per cent back in 2016. While the Census data was taken at a time when most of the country was in lock down, the work from home numbers jumped significantly, from five per cent back in 2016 to 27 per cent of the West End workforce.

The working home from preference in West End, and its easy connectivity to the city, have been two key drivers in the success at Sekisui Australia's West Village masterplan, which has reinvigorated the whole of the suburb.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204860]

They've catered to the working from home trend with additional study nooks and home offices in their latest releases, while offering a convenient place to shop and dine in the form of extensive hospitality and retail literally at the foot of the buildings. They've created a true mixed-use village which has been sought-after by both working from home young professionals all the way through to downsizers who want everything in one place.

Sekisui kicked off the development of West Village in 2016, and, as well as winning over 50 awards, have completed a number of stages at the village which is a restoration of the 1920's Peters Ice Cream factory heritage buildings.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204843]

The most recent release, The Allere Collection, comprises two towers, Uno and Duo, which are now approaching 90 per cent sold.

Designed by Rothelowman, Uno and Duo represent as the second to last release in the masterplan. The final release, which will be all three-bedroom apartments most suited to families and downsizers, is expected to be released next year.

Billionaire John Van Lieshout is putting down a marker on the suburb as well, having lodged plans for a Rothelowman-designed tower in the heart of the suburb earlier this year.&nbsp;

The West End tower, dubbed Bank &amp; Mollison due to its prime 2,074 sqm amalgamated site straddling Mollison and Bank streets, sits next to Sekisui Australia's award-winning West Village.

&nbsp;

<h3>What else is there to do in West End?</h3>

The beating heart of West End lies in its multifaceted cultural fabric, drawing people from all walks of life to experience the unique tapestry of diversity it offers. Hosting Queensland's largest Greek community, the suburb showcases the essence of Hellenic culture in various ways.

A highlight on the cultural calendar is the Paniyiri Greek Festival, held in Musgrave Park every May, welcoming over 50,000 visitors to indulge in authentic delights.

Beyond its Greek heritage, West End is a true melting pot of cultures, with a strong Vietnamese presence adding to the richness of the neighbourhood. From family-owned restaurants to cafes offering a taste of Greece, West End's dining scene reflects its diverse community and the spirit of inclusivity that characterises the precinct.

With the Brisbane CBD within arm's reach, residents also enjoy the convenience of city living while savouring the more laid-back atmosphere of the suburb. The area's close proximity to sought-after universities has turned West End into a magnet for students. As a result, the suburb has earned a reputation as the city's share house capital, with a large student population contributing to its youthful vibe.

As the sun sets, West End truly comes to life. Its thriving nightlife offers an array of entertainment options, from cozy bars hosting live music to energetic clubs pulsing with beats.&nbsp;

The West End Markets are on every weekend&nbsp;at Davies Park, held every Saturday from 6am.&nbsp;Locals come by for breakfast, to buy produce for the week, and sip coffee while sitting under trees listening to live music by the river. &nbsp;

West End also has plentiful street art, so much so it's become an activity to take it in.&nbsp;The bohemian suburb’s alleyways and venues are filled with vibrant murals, which can be explored&nbsp;at your own pace or opt for a Brisbane Greeter to show you around for free.

<h3>Places to eat?</h3>

Cafes:

1.&nbsp;Morning After.:&nbsp;Relaxed cafe serving international dishes in a light-filled space with whitewashed brick walls.
