<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/aura-by-aqualand-north-sydney-168-walker-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">AURA</a>&nbsp;doesn’t just rise over North Sydney, it redefines it. Now in its final release, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/aqualand-australia">Aqualand</a>’s $1 billion architectural statement is not just complete, but already reshaping the way people live, connect and dine in this rapidly evolving harbourside CBD.

Positioned beside the new Victoria Cross Metro Station and boasting panoramic views across Sydney Harbour, Aura’s 386 residences crown a mixed-use precinct designed with unapologetic ambition. The curvaceous sandstone-inspired form by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a>, paired with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/interior-designers/richards-stanisich">Richard Stanisich</a>’s understated interiors, sets a design tone that’s both monumental and intimate.

At its peak, literally, the two penthouses so spectacular they command their own names; La Davina and Il Magnate. The residents are spread across the&nbsp;entire top floor, offering what many consider the most refined residences ever built in North Sydney. Designed by Richard and Kirsten Stanisich, each four-bedroom home is meticulously crafted to evoke calm, space, and permanence.&nbsp;

The kitchens are fully wrapped in natural stone, with integrated Gaggenau appliances, Sub-Zero fridges, concealed sculleries, and even a zip hydro tap delivering boiling, chilled and sparkling water on demand. A linear stone fireplace anchors the open-plan living space, dividing lounge and dining zones with quiet sophistication.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30959 project_image_fid=292861]

The master suite, meanwhile, feels more like a private retreat, complete with a custom stone makeup vanity, walk-through dressing area, and spa-inspired ensuite with heated stone floors, a freestanding Villeroy &amp; Boch tub, and timber veneer joinery throughout.

Kirsten Stanisich, Director of Richards Stanisich, said the penthouses offer incredible scale reflective of a single residence.&nbsp;

“We sought inspiration for these remarkable residences from the classic top-floor Parisian apartment," Stanisich said.

"We looked at what made these French apartments so elegant and found it really came down to their scale. It was ultimately this generosity of space that we used for the AURA penthouses, where we’ve designed considered rooms with deep large-scale proportions."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30959 project_image_fid=310337]

Everyday living at Aura feels no less elevated. A dedicated 24-hour concierge, Technogym fitness centre, sky dining terraces, and a resort-style pool serve a lifestyle designed to rival luxury hotels.

At street level, Aqualand’s own hospitality arm, Etymon Projects, curates a precinct of LA-style bistros, Japanese fine dining, and local wine bars, all seamlessly integrated into the building’s sculptural podium.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30959 project_image_fid=310337]

This final chapter, aptly dubbed The Finale, is more than a sales phase, it’s an invitation to two of the most exclusive apartments ever to be built in North Sydney.

With limited residences remaining, buyers can access curated incentives including stamp duty rebates, rental guarantees, legal fee coverage, and even $20,000 towards dining within the precinct.

From generous one-bedders to The Icons, two singular penthouses priced well into prestige territory, Aura’s offerings reflect a scale and calibre rarely seen in urban Sydney. And with move-in now immediate, this is no longer a promise of future luxury. It’s happening.

Aqualand unveils penthouse collection at AURA By Aqualand in North Sydney

There’s no sign of the development wave that began several years ago slowing along Old Burleigh Road.

Around 10 new apartment developments are either underway or preparing to launch along the 800-metre strip stretching from the southern edge of Surfers Paradise towards the heart of Broadbeach, collectively adding just shy of 1,000 new apartments to the beachfront corridor.

The latest plans propose a further 30 apartments to replace an original six-unit walk-up on a 658 sqm site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/20a-old-burleigh-road-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">20A Old Burleigh Road</a>. The 14-storey building has been designed by Ferro Chow Architecture, which recently joined the Elevation Architecture Group.

The developer behind the project is Geoffrey Booth, whose Future Liv In has focused on delivering rental accommodation across regional Australia.

<img alt="Old Burleigh Road" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="99d393e7-d404-43bc-80cb-6255c39b83d6" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-01-05%20at%2012.28.44%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=ZFT8F3mOny4M4ut.kFF3woC9WH9oR5gT" />

The Old Burleigh Road development will comprise 18 two-bedroom apartments, 10 three-bedroom apartments, and a single four-bedroom residence occupying the entirety of level 12. Above, the building will be crowned by a two-storey penthouse with its own private lift, several multi-purpose rooms, and two rooftop terraces — one featuring a puppy lawn and spa, the other offering a private swimming pool, sunset deck, and built-in barbecue.

Resident amenities will be located on the second level and include a pool with adjoining spa, cabana, and pool deck, along with an indoor residents’ lounge featuring a bar and an alfresco barbecue kitchen.

In the architectural statement submitted by Elevation Architecture, the project is referred to as “UMI”, which the firm says has been “inspired by the majestic hinterlands and shaped by the coastal climate”.

“It is an exemplar of how community living can still feel at one with nature, breathable, and deeply connected in place,” the architects noted.

They added that the site benefits from established building separation to adjoining towers, helping to maintain privacy, sunlight, and residential amenity, while still offering direct beach access within an urban setting.

“Drawing inspiration from the Gold Coast hinterlands and the region’s natural landscape, the podium and tower detail highlights the contrasting elements of treetop green and cliff-face peach. The vibrant texture and materiality shaped by time has a richness in depth and character.”

Old Burleigh Road has become a hotspot for developers, with the three-tower Jewel development kickstarting a wave of projects up and down the strip when it was completed in 2020.

Currently under construction and approaching completion is <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/faro-broadbeach-123-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">FARO Broadbeach</a> by 5Point and Bottega, 21 large-scale half- and full-floor apartments. 5Point is also behind the recently launched <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/lumara-108-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">Lumara</a>, another 37 apartments to add to the pipeline.

Luxury builder GRAYA is progressing construction on <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/enclave-by-graya-118-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">Enclave</a>, its first Gold Coast tower, while Polycell remains the most active developer on the street. They are preparing to launch <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/sandpiper-broadbeach-155-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach-qld-4218">Sandpiper</a>, a 50-storey redevelopment of the former Sandpiper Holiday Resort that will deliver around 200 apartments alongside extensive resident amenity. The group also has another 130-apartment project approved nearby, as does <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/qld/dvb-approved-for-second-broadbeach-apartment-development">Dean Gallagher’s DVB Projects</a>.

Sunshine Coast developer Habitat Development Group continues to position itself as one of the region’s largest new apartment developers.

Its latest project is in Maroochydore, where it is currently delivering <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-millwell-2-millwell-road-east-maroochydore-qld-4558">The Millwell</a>. Adjacent to the new 53-hectare Maroochydore City Centre project, Habitat is planning a further 180 apartments on a 3,468 sqm site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/132-136-aerodrome-road-maroochydore-qld-4558">132–136 Aerodrome Road</a>. The site was purchased with approval for a smaller 13-storey, 103-unit building.

Habitat will demolish the two existing retail centres, currently home to the Salvation Army Family Store and Neighbours Aid, and replace them with an 18-storey building featuring the significant rooftop amenities that have become a hallmark of Habitat developments in recent years. The rooftop will include both indoor and outdoor spaces, anchored by an infinity swimming pool.

<img alt="Maroochydore" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ad434d07-666b-4614-b33e-530ad6a2d261" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-01-05%20at%2010.12.33%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=7pyLsPWKQuwv0us3_v.9DmbzEc2VZe9Z" />

There will be a mix of one- to four-bedroom apartments.

The Development Assessment Report, submitted to the Sunshine Coast Council, says the proposal&nbsp;is not speculative, but a response to both zoning intent and demonstrated housing need.

“The proposed development represents an appropriate and logical intensification of the site, consistent with the planning framework and the intended urban outcomes for the locality.”

Across the Sunshine Coast, councils are increasingly scrutinising not just height or yield, but whether new projects genuinely align with the long-term structure plans underpinning growth corridors. The&nbsp;ASTP Planning Report&nbsp;reinforces the approach, noting that the project has been shaped around site responsiveness rather than generic typology.

“The development has been designed to respond to the physical constraints and opportunities of the site, while delivering a high-quality residential outcome that integrates with the existing and emerging urban context.”

<img alt="Habitat" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3a03fc54-4ca5-4868-88d0-eeced70604e2" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-01-05%20at%2010.12.28%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=1pkK3lJrrZjkghTLBReM2zatcas4Nc4B" />

In mid-2025, Habitat, a developer that also builds its own projects, commenced construction on The Millwell, located just over one kilometre from the new proposal. The Millwell will comprise more than 200 apartments across two eight-storey buildings.

Habitat also has two projects on Lake Kawana in Birtinya: <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/st-clair-birtinya-930-931-waterside-retreat-birtinya-qld-4575">St Clair</a>, a 200-unit, two-building development launched last year and set to welcome buyers this year; and Esperance, a 175-apartment project currently progressing through the development approval process.

John Camilleri, the breeder of legendary racehorse Winx, is set to deliver a landmark two-tower beachfront development that would redefine the Surfers Paradise skyline.

Camilleri, who spent around $100 million acquiring development sites across the Gold Coast in 2025, has lodged plans for two new towers on the dress-circle stretch of Garfield Terrace, just two days before Christmas.

In assembling the site, Camilleri's Celestino Developments has effectively acquired the 71 Garfield project by Iris Capital and AALTO by Weiya Holdings, creating an unrivalled <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/63-79-garfield-terrace-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">4,000 sqm beachfront holding along Garfield Terrace</a>.

The proposal comprises two residential towers of 55 and 48 storeys, linked by a dramatic skybridge which will home “exclusive VIP and wellness amenities.”

In total, the development would deliver 275 two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments across the two towers, rising above a shared landscaped podium that incorporates a central green space and a beachfront swimming pool stretching more than 90 metres.

<img alt="DBI" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="097900f3-6bef-4919-b168-b08f2f762876" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-30%20at%209.37.58%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=et0SpmcvaPPVrexI_zWi46BVFtZBxAzx" />

Architecture firm DBI, in documents submitted to Gold Coast City Council, said the project at 63–79 Garfield Terrace would “establish a new benchmark for beachfront residential living on the Gold Coast.”

"The project occupies a rare, uninterrupted oceanfront site and has been shaped by a design philosophy that merges architectural elegance with environmental responsiveness and a carefully curated lifestyle experience. Together, the 48-storey North Tower and 55-storey South Tower form a distinctive twin-tower composition whose dynamic silhouette will make a significant contribution to the Surfers Paradise skyline."

DBI said the architectural language draws inspiration from the fluidity and movement of the coastal landscape.

"Each tower is defined by organic, curving forms and continuous balcony ribbons that wrap the buildings, providing deep shading, enhancing environmental performance, and reinforcing the rhythmic, sculptural expression of the façade. These balcony forms also reduce the apparent mass of the towers while maintaining strong visual continuity from podium to summit. Sculpted reflective downturns run along the western spine of both towers, shifting and lifting as they extend upwards to frame service zones and open eastward to maximise ocean views."

<img alt="Garfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a2a00ce3-a0e9-45d6-b4b5-b7baed592ac5" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-30%20at%209.53.40%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=DnruWV1dhLrtXOeElwekyd7vPq2gw55t" />

The project’s most striking feature is the skybridge at level 45, which will house executive lounges, formal dining spaces, wellness facilities and panoramic ocean-facing views.

“The skybridge enhances the identity of the development, promotes social interaction, and delivers a lifestyle experience not found elsewhere on the Gold Coast,” DBI added.

The podium will host an extensive suite of recreational amenities, including resident lounges, private dining rooms, a large open green lawn, and the signature 90-metre pool stretching along the beachfront. The pool is divided into lap, lounge and children’s zones.

The southern end of the podium will accommodate additional wellness facilities, including a gymnasium, plunge pools, treatment rooms and a dedicated yoga lawn.

<img alt="Garfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ee1b4f25-231f-4804-83b1-a573a1481962" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-30%20at%209.55.47%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=zObzIA3D5w7EwqPsHjr2pKrA4vbB28zL" />

There will be 127 apartments in the North Tower and 148 in the South Tower, including multiple penthouses, while the Enderley Avenue and Oceanway frontages will be activated by a series of food and beverage tenancies.

Camilleri emerged as the most active site acquirer on the Gold Coast in 2025. He spent just over $30 million acquiring Pacific Point, a 10-level Surfers Paradise apartment block and an adjoining three-level duplex, from fellow racing identity and Aquis billionaire Tony Fung. Plans are now underway for a 93-apartment, 40-storey tower on the 1,682 sqm site.

He also paid $53.65 million for the 1,500 sqm Garfield Terrace site previously marketed as AALTO by Weiya Holdings, before acquiring the adjoining parcel from hotel billionaire Sam Arnaout’s Iris Capital, the developer behind V&amp;A Broadbeach.

The Melbourne-based HLA Group is the latest developer to expand into South East Queensland, lodging plans for a unique mixed-use short-term accomodation and apartment building in Taringa, with the building design inspired by the Glasswing Butterfly.

The development application for 10 Morrow Street seeks approval for a total of 232 dwellings, comprising 116 residential apartments and 116 short-stay accommodation units. The build-to-sell residential component is made up of 31 one-bedroom apartments, 67 two-bedroom apartments, 17 three-bedroom apartments, and a single four-bedroom apartment, offering a diverse mix aimed at singles, couples, families, and downsizers.

<img alt="Taringa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="33913cd4-9839-4456-b325-d35b3f8b4694" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.40.26%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=sLvc7jUrYzDwqPDZBPrXTosKHDSp.qrt" />

Designed by Ellivo Architects, the tower takes strong inspiration from nature, with the architectural language driven by one of Queensland’s most delicate species. As described in the planning documents submitted to Brisbane City Council, Ellivo Architects state the design is “inspired by the elegance of the Glasswing butterfly," and mirrors the graceful sweep of its wings, a form that feels light, fluid, and alive.

“Lush subtropical greenery is throughtfull woven throughout, transforming the building into a sanctuary in the heart of the city.”

The proposal positions the building as more than a conventional residential tower, with Ellivo Architects describing 10 Morrow Street as “an urban oasis that blends short term accomodation with residential living. A destination for rest, relaxation, and renewal.”

<img alt="Taringa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="84e9a0ff-464e-4973-bffe-5d5a8fe9f087" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.40.32%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=dhX9eVgUaQE2TvCzJPhF8N8_hzYSKpyK" />

Formally, the building’s massing and floorplate are directly shaped by its butterfly inspiration. Ellivo explain that, “adopting the wings of the Glasswing Butterfly, the tower's plan is divided into four distinct quadrants, each shaped to mirror the wing's segmented geometry and taking the slender ‘veins’ up the facade of the tower.”

"This approach results in a sculpted tower form with articulated façades and a strong vertical expression."

<img alt="Taringa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="5947011d-ff6c-4a57-bdc1-9072a472a79c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.40.29%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=nnGqd4WCZM8AOJZY.c3u49BO4LurKRhb" />

The Assessment Report by Human Habitats said the 19-storey tower capitalises on its strategic connectivity and prominence at the entrance of Taringa Village and adjoining the Taringa Station.

"The proposal offers a significant revitalisation of the subject site that integrates architectural excellence, innovation, and sustainable design to directly address long-standing connectivity and safety challenges, housing supply , and diversity together with enhanced streetscape activation and convenient access to major transport corridors."

HLA Group Australia is registered to South Yarra and is currently delivering Adamson No.5, just 15 luxury apartments that start from around $2 million.&nbsp;

Caloundra

Karam Boutique Residential has lodged plans with the Sunshine Coast Council for a seven-storey residential apartment building.

Landing on the corner of Canberra Terrace and Arthur Street, the site spans 3,284 sqm, with the proposed built form fanning out from the podium level.

TMarshall are behind the design of the apartments, which comprise 24 three-bedroom apartments, along with two four-bedroom penthouses.

Four apartments will sit across each level, bar the top floor, with living, dining and kitchen space following an open-plan layout.

<img alt="" height="714" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-05-25_at_4.46.11_pm.png" width="1510" />

Each apartment extends on to an open balcony with the outer apartments benefitting from an additional balcony overlooking the resident&rsquo;s pool, which is located behind the building.

The seventh floor will home the two penthouses, each spanning 372 sqm internally, with three balconies as well as a planter box space, which cover 99 sqm collectively.

The four-bedroom penthouses mirror one another with the floorplan, each including three-bathrooms and two car spaces.

Centrally located in Caloundra, the southern gateway to the Sunshine Coast and only an hour north of Brisbane, residents&rsquo; will be perfectly positioned in one of Queensland&rsquo;s premier lifestyle destinations.

This idyllic seaside suburb is renowned for having over 30 kilometres of pristine beaches with a plethora of foreshores and an array of parklands and coastal pathways.

Residents will benefit from direct access to Pumicestone Passage, a mecca for all types of water sports as well as being just a short drive from the picturesque Sunshine Coast Hinterland and the Glass House Mountains.

Perfectly positioned close to all amenities being just minutes from public transport, 3 minutes from Caloundra Shopping Centre and the major supermarkets and retail stores, 12 minutes from the Sunshine Coast Hospital precinct, 25 minutes from the Sunshine Coast Airport and an hours drive from Brisbane and its Domestic and International Airport.

The group have a number of other projects currently in the pipeline, including Lighthouse by Karam which sits on the same road as the newly proposed development XXX

Karam Boutique Residential lodge plans for Canberra Terrace apartments in Caloundra

The newest Sunshine Coast mixed-use development, Paloma Paloma, is not only unique for the coastal suburb of&nbsp;&nbsp;Caloundra,&nbsp;but unique for Queensland.

That&#39;s the view of&nbsp;Colliers Director Residential, Daniel Hirst, who is marketing the 11-storey apartment tower, part of the wider mini-precicnt which include a fully integrated 110-room hotel in a separate tower and a three-level podium of retail and dining.

&quot;It&#39;s a landmark development unlike anyone has seen before,&quot; Hirst told Urban.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110945 project_image_fid=195440]

&quot;They&#39;re large apartments, designed to be lived in, and offering a high level of finishes, from limestone floors to natural stone bench tops.&quot;

Decibel Architecture has collaborated closely with award-winning landscape architecture practice LatStudios to create a building that breathes and one that is unique to Queensland.

For architectural inspiration, the group looked to the iconic headlands of Caloundra where waves crash against marbled tidal ledges of rockpools weathered by time.

Developed by CURA, Paloma Paloma&nbsp;will&nbsp;feature onsite resort-style amenities, including spaces for things like yoga and fitness, in addition to a wellness spa and resort-style swimming pool.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110945 project_image_fid=195437]

Hirst is expecting local and interstate buyers, predominantly in their mid 40s to late 50s, who want everything in one place.

&quot;They&#39;ll be discerning buyers, maybe semi-retired, and wanting something which gives them a feeling of status and luxury when they get home.

&quot;They will want the convenience of dining underneath, and the easy access to beaches, possibly without the pretentiousness found in some other areas nearby.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110945 project_image_fid=195441]

&quot;Residents will still have that status symbol, while also having the convenience of work from home facilities, and easy access to Brisbane.&quot;

Two of the penthouses have already sold, both to locals from Shelley Beach and Pelican Waters.

Stella Collective handled the interiors of the 74 apartments, with the materials and spaces designed to receive cooling sea breezes and encourage slow living.

"It's a landmark development unlike anyone has seen before," Hirst told Urban

Paloma Paloma apartments launch at Caloundra

The longstanding Sunshine Coast developer&nbsp;Henzell Property Group&nbsp;is set to create a mixed-use development in Caloundra, which they say will be one of the most exciting launches the Sunshine Coast will see in 2021.

Henzell, who have been reshaping the Sunshine Coast over the last four decades, have acquired the Suncourt Motel,&nbsp;set on a prized, mostly vacant,&nbsp;6,175 sqm site at the entry to Caloundra.

Henzell will develop&nbsp;high-end retail and dining at street level, with modern apartments dedicated to owner-occupiers above.

The&nbsp;135 Bulcock Street site, also with a street frontage to Omrah Avenue, was a unique opportunity to create a new entry statement for central Caloundra, Henzell Property Group sales director Marcus Muir says.

&ldquo;We have had our eye on this property for some time, so what we have planned has been carefully considered,&quot; Muir says.

&quot;We feel this site, with the correct product mix, will be one of the most exciting launches that the Sunshine Coast will see in 2021.

&ldquo;This development will combine luxurious residences offering exceptional views within an entertainment precinct that will attract high end lifestyle operators locally and from across Queensland.

&ldquo;We have already commenced discussions with a number of dining and retail operators and there are many more who have yet to move to the Coast as they have been waiting for the perfect location.&rdquo;&nbsp;

<img alt="" height="800" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/marcus_muir_and_mclean_henzell_smaller.jpg" width="1200" /> 
Marcus Muir, left, with Henzell&nbsp;director McLean Henzell. Image supplied

Henzell Property Group plans to deliver the project in two stages, with the design taking advantage of the two-street frontage by creating an activated laneway for vehicle and pedestrian access between Bulcock Street and Omrah Avenue providing a new sidewalk boulevard restaurant precinct.

&ldquo;This will become an iconic Sunshine Coast location for residents and visitors alike providing a new streetscape that connects Bicentennial Park, north of Omrah Avenue, and south to the beachfront,&rdquo; Muir said.

&ldquo;The location offers everything that residents could want in a Sunshine Coast lifestyle with an easy stroll to some of Caloundra&rsquo;s best beaches and shopping with Bulcock Street right at your doorstep.

&ldquo;When combined with luxurious apartments offering generous floor plans and either northern orientation or sprawling ocean views, this is exactly what the market is looking for in a coastal residence.&rdquo;

The first stage of the development will comprise a boutique collection of 39 apartments over 10 levels that will boast some of the best view&rsquo;s that Caloundra has to offer.

Preliminary works have already begun at this stage ahead of Henzell Property Group releasing apartments to the market.

&ldquo;We have chosen to release the most boutique offering to the market first to cater for exceptional demand for luxury residences by owner-occupiers,&rdquo; Muir said.

&ldquo;Stage one will comprise a collection of two and three-bedroom residences along with a penthouse collection, resort style pool and tranquil pool side areas.&rdquo;

Henzell Property Group has been buoyed by the success of its latest development at Pelican Waters, with a sell-out of an exclusive release of luxury residences in the first stage of the $200 million precinct known as The Cove.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27849 project_image_fid=151643]

All 15 homes in the Terrace Collection were snapped up for a total of $12 million, highlighting the appeal of high-end residences among-end users on the Sunshine Coast.

&ldquo;Buyers in this segment of the market are typically looking for a relaxed lifestyle close to the water and within easy reach of retail, dining and entertainment facilities,&rdquo; Muir added.

&ldquo;With this iconic new development, we are planning to add a new level of sophistication to the natural appeal that attracts so many people to the Caloundra lifestyle.&rdquo;

The Priceline Pharmacy building in the Sunshine Coast suburb of Caloundra at 66 Bullock Street has been offered to the market
The property, 100 per cent leased to Star Pharmacy Group Pty Ltd, is being offered for sale via an expressions of interest campaign.
The asset is being marketed and sold by Ray White Commercial QLD father and son duo Stephen and Elliot Kidd, in conjunction with Henzells Commercial Real Estate’s Paul Bell.
Mr Stephen Kidd said the two-level commercial building was in the heart of one of the Sunshine Coast’s most popular tourist destinations.
“A new corporate head lease from the Star Pharmacy Group over the entire building is being offered, with the ground floor retail occupied by Priceline Pharmacy and upstairs previously used as a function room,” he said.
“The current net income produces $166,340 after all deductions, including land tax.”
Mr Elliot Kidd said Star Pharmacy Group acquired and refurbished their tenancy in 2016.
“The ground floor income is underwritten by a fresh five-year corporate lease with options until 2045,” he said.
Mr Bell said the upper level comprised open-plan accommodation that was currently fitted out for an entertainment venue.

Rugby league legend Allan 'Alfie' Langer and wife Janine have sold their Sunshine Coast apartment.
They paid a savvy $865,000 for the apartment in 2016, given the three bedroom unit sold for $1.26 million when new in 2010.
They have secured a $955,000 sale, after asking offers over $949,000.
The open plan beachfront apartment has a beach-facing balcony with views across Bulcock Beach to Bribie Island.
REMAX Caloundra agent Lachlan Anderson sold the apartment.
Langar, the Rugby League hall of famer, is currently on the coaching panel at the Brisbane Broncos, as well as with the Australian national team. 
A bronze statue of Langar was revealed earlier this year outside Suncorp.

Houses in Queensland's Caloundra spend 67 days on market on average: Investar

<html><body>
Developer AVJennings has completed construction on the first stage of its new Creekwood Central precinct in Caloundra on Queensland's Sunshine Coast.
The development features 31 double story architecturally designed townhouse with a choice of five contemporary two and three bedroom floorplans, with prices starting from just $345,000.
Creekwood Central has five home designs - the Clovelly, Fraser, Iluka, Esperance and Hamilton which range up to 178 sqm and a five to six star energy rating.
All townhomes feature open plan living and dining areas, with a generous kitchen complete with European stainless steel appliances, stone benchtops and ample storage. The townhomes have been designed to be light and breezy, with large windows for cross-ventilation and supported by air-conditioning in the main living areas and master bedroom.
Rod Chadwick, AVJennings Queensland state general manager said Creekwood Central has been created in response to increasing demand from buyers for homes that offer convenience and connectivity.
"These townhomes are turn-key, so home buyers can see the quality of their new home first hand and make the move as soon as they are ready," he said.
"We also believe variety and individuality are important, so we have included a range of floorplans and a choice of two colour schemes called Sandstone and Pumice in Creekwood Central to appeal to different markets.
"I anticipate first time buyers, investors and downsizers will snap up the two bedroom, two bathroom, single garage Hamilton and Fraser townhomes, with a choice of a 'loft' design with a balcony or a traditional terrace style home with front and rear courtyards.
"Those looking for a larger abode will find the Clovelly, Iluka and Esperance designs meet their needs, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms plus powder room and a single or double garage. These designs all include outdoor entertainment areas and a dedicated study space for students or professionals needing a home office.
"These townhomes have been designed not only to suit residents but also the Creekwood lifestyle, so home buyers can take advantage of the community's proximity to the lake and beach."
