Castle Hill’s booming development market is set for another boost, with builder-developer Buildex proposing a new mid-rise apartment building near Castle Towers.

Buildex has submitted plans to The Hills Shire Council for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/197-old-northern-road-castle-hill-nsw-2154">nine-storey building comprising 57 apartments</a> on Old Northern Road. The company acquired two adjoining sites earlier this year, totalling more than 2,683 sqm.

Texco Design has prepared the scheme, which includes five one-bed plus study apartments, 37 two-bedrooms, and 15 three-bedrooms.

Castle Hill has become a hotspot for developers in recent years, undergoing significant transformation driven by the opening of the Hills Showground Precinct to development and the introduction of two metro stations servicing the suburb.

Developers including Deicorp and Kassis Homes have already completed projects, and are progressing future developments, while Meriton, Arada, and Ellipse are currently delivering new projects in the rapidly evolving area.

Gold Coast developer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/immerse-projects">Immerse Projects</a>&nbsp;has unveiled what it intends to deliver at its recently acquired Toowong site, its debut apartment development in Brisbane.

Immerse, founded by John Kearney who is also the founder of regarded construction company Greyburn, secured the prime Sylvan Road site <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/qld/first-look-immerse-projects-moves-into-brisbane-apartment-market-with-toowong-site-acquisition">earlier this year</a>, in an area which has historical significance to Kearney who&nbsp;studied at the nearby University of Queensland.

"It feels like a full circle moment," Kearney told&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/" target="">Apartments.com.au</a>.&nbsp;

“I spent many nights at the Regatta Hotel just down the road, as have most people in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/brisbane-qld" target="">Brisbane</a>. It’s one of the city’s most well-known hotels, and with several cafes, restaurants, and a CityCat stop nearby, it’s become an even more attractive place to live.”

He is planning a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/22-24-sylvan-road-toowong-qld-4066">15-storey project with 88 apartments</a> above an activated ground plane with a shop and hospitality spaces.

<img alt="Toowong podium" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c350436b-9d64-46cc-ab6f-defc009e1b65" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/podium_0.png?VersionId=zt7A0_14M62TkZ61YHnGmEck9KM9HqDA" />

The architecture, led by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/interior-designers/bda-architecture">BDA Architecture</a>, presents a tower massing that responds to the area's evolving mid-rise context. The scheme incorporates podium and rooftop communal spaces, while the commercial elements aim to activate the Sylvan Road frontage and enhance the site's interface with the adjacent parkland.&nbsp;

Landscaping plans by Ivy May Landscape Architects include subtropical planting and deep soil zones to support stormwater management and visual integration.

Supporting documentation from Mewing Planning Consultants notes that "the proposed development will deliver a mixed-use outcome that enhances the vibrancy of the Sylvan Road corridor" and highlights its proximity to high-frequency public transport and community facilities.

&nbsp;

There's been little new apartment development in Toowong in recent years. The most notable is Consolidated Properties two-tower Monarch Residences, which is approaching completion with nearly all of its 224 residences sold.

Kearney describes&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/toowong-qld-4066" target="">Toowong</a>&nbsp;as a suburb with real depth.

"The suburb attracts everyone, from students to retirees, and that's what makes it interesting."

The developer is extending a five per cent deposit and a $50,000 settlement rebate on selected apartments, aiming to help owner-occupiers secure one of the final homes ahead of move-in in early 2026.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110379 project_image_fid=311393]

Located on Canb​erra Avenue opposite Newlands Park, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/audrey-st-leonards-13-19-canberra-avenue-st-leonards-nsw-2065">Audrey</a> comprises 102 residences, including a mix of three-bedroom residences and a double-storey, five-bedroom terrace with two outdoor areas.&nbsp;

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/sjb-architects">SJB</a> and delivered by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/north-shore-property-construction">North Shore Property Construction</a>, the project reflects Hyecorp’s focus on owner-occupier planning, with open-plan layouts, extensive storage integration, and a material palette built around stone, oak timber flooring and bespoke joinery.

Audrey St Leonards nears completion – settlement bonus now available

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/freecity">Freecity</a>&nbsp;has been given the green light to develop its flagship mixed-use project in the Crows Nest metro precinct.

The NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority approved the 40-storey tower, aligning with the NSW Government's Transport Oriented Development (TOD) agenda to deliver more homes in highly connected, high amenity locations.

The $600 million tower, at 378-398 Pacific Highway, will comprise 178 apartments with resident amenities, two levels of commercial offices, and a curated retail offering. Freecity will also dedicate a 10 percent Affordable Housing Contribution, supporting the Governments broader housing objectives.

<img alt="Freecity Crows Nest" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="4de9b03b-e8aa-4929-b3f1-6747acbe6b73" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Freecity%20Crows%20Nest%20Project.jpg?VersionId=oWwFWxGj_oUFEYX4j_qRFdSzcShLw3DG" />

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cox-architecture">COX Architecture</a>, the tower will offer a diverse residential mix, from one-bedroom homes to expansive four-bedroom penthouses, all crafted to maximise light, views and liveability.

Lawrence Zheng, Co-Founder and Joint CEO of Freecity Group, said the approval represents a significant step forward for both Crows Nest and Freecity.

"We are proud to be delivering a landmark project that brings new homes, new amenity and new economic activity to one of Sydney’s most strategically connected locations,"&nbsp;Zheng said.

"With our $6 billion pipeline of 12 mixed-use projects, this development reinforces Freecity’s commitment to helping deliver the housing supply and transport-integrated precincts the Government is championing.”

Michael Romano, Executive Director of Development, said the companies focus is on "creating places that genuinely enhance how people live day to day - communities that balance accessibility, amenity and neighbourhood vibrancy.”

“This project reflects the future of urban living - design led, highly liveable and seamlessly connected to the city’s major transport, employment and education hubs. Being directly opposite the Crows Nest Metro means residents can access the best of Sydney with unrivalled convenience."

Freecity secures approval for Crows Nest metro precinct tower

The Bedford by Mosaic marks the culmination of a near-decade journey for South East Queensland’s most active developer.

Mosaic Founder and CEO, Brook Monahan, said the company first identified the prime Prospect Street, Kangaroo Point site in 2016 as an A-grade opportunity they were eager to secure. They almost bought it at the time, before it was ultimately acquired by Woolworths’ development arm, Fabcot.

The opportunity resurfaced late last year when the site, vacant for nearly three decades, was offered for sale again.

Backed by years of history, feasibility research, and detailed product planning for the 3,195 sqm corner site, Mosaic was able to move swiftly. The Bedford by Mosaic is now proving a clear market success, unsurprising given the depth of work the developer had undertaken on the location and potential density mix well before they owned the land.

Active across both Brisbane and the Gold Coast, and with a development pipeline more than $2 billion, Mosaic has already sold 90 per cent of apartments in what has become the area’s most significant residential addition in more than a decade.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134792 project_image_fid=328119]

Designed by BDA Architecture, The Bedford comprises 128 two- and three-bedroom apartments, including the Masterpiece Series Skyhomes across the top two levels. These residences offer the largest floorplans and the best views over the river and city. Premium inclusions—such as natural stone benchtops, bespoke cabinetry, and Miele appliances, feature in every apartment, not just the top-tier offerings.

A defining feature of The Bedford is its integrated mixed-use component, set to deliver Kangaroo Point’s first Woolworths supermarket, along with a café and liquor store, bringing long-awaited convenience to the peninsula.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134792 project_image_fid=355673]

Residents will also enjoy one of Brisbane’s most comprehensive amenity collections. Dubbed the Rooftop Recreation &amp; Retreat Sky Terrace, the wellness-focused spaces include a resort-style pool with sun deck, an indoor/outdoor gym, spa, sauna, steam room and cold plunge.

Additional amenities include a residents’ lounge and relaxation zones, a private dining room with kitchen, barbecue areas, landscaped gardens, an outdoor viewing deck capturing city and river views, and a bookable golf simulator.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134792 project_image_fid=355681]

The remaining residences at The Bedford span the upper levels of the building and include two- and three-bedroom floorplans, which start from $1,645,000.

Mosaic's in-house building arm has already commenced construction on The Bedford. They estimate a late 2027 completion.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134792 project_image_fid=328121]

Monahan notes that Mosaic’s most successful projects often begin years before the first plans are drawn. Their new South Brisbane development is no exception, initially making it onto their radar in 2018.

“We aren’t opportunistic,” Monahan says. “Every site purchase is well considered and thought out. As seen with Kangaroo Point and South Brisbane, it can take years to eventuate. There are sites we are looking at now that we might not secure for several years.”

Mosaic is set to launch its new South Brisbane project&nbsp;in the next year, while its latest Gold Coast development,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/josephine-by-mosaic-166-the-esplanade-burleigh-heads-qld-4220">Josephine</a>, is coming soon to Burleigh Heads.

A decade in the making: Mosaic's long-awaited success story at The Bedford, Kangaroo Point

Coogee

Sydney property developer Central Element has secured development approval for the restoration of Coogee's historic 1860’s landmark, Ballamac House.

Ballamac House, at 39 Arcadia Street, will be redeveloped into eight luxury apartments designed by&nbsp;Tonkin Zulaikha Greer (TZG), a long-standing partner of Central Element and expert in heritage projects. They've previously collaborated with Central Element on 25Hours Paddington and The Minerva Potts Point.

Nathan Chivas, Managing Director of Central Element, said Ballamac House&nbsp;has been a permanent fixture on Coogee’s north headland for over a century, so it was crucial to honour its great legacy and restore the property.

"We are thrilled to partner with TZG Architects and Jane Irwin Landscape&nbsp;Architecture to bring the 1860s icon back to its original excellence," Chivas said.

"The conservation of the original house will see us retain the external and internal walls, fireplaces, mantel pieces, and decorative ceilings, while reconstructing the wrap around verandah, as an ode the&nbsp;luxury of estate living."

Established by Charles Moore in 1860, the estate has lived many lives; as a private residence, hotel and infirmary. It has also been home to many prominent Australian figures and seen the likes of British Royalty roam its halls over the years.

Central Element’s vision of fusing old and new will bring the Ballamac House estate into a new era of luxury as it is transformed into eight oceanfront residences across two buildings.

The heritage Victorian house will undergo a restoration to reinstate it to its original grandeur. That will home two of the eight apartments, while the further six will sit in a new building to the east which will have ocean views.

The development occupies close to 1,500 sqm, with its eight residences spread out over four-stories that stand at almost 15 metres tall.

Each residence will enjoy the oceanfront location on Coogee’s northern headland, with uninterrupted views out to Wedding Cake Island.

The penthouse will feature extravagant interiors, configured to maximise its north facing aspect with panoramic views spanning past Gordons Bay to Wylie's Baths. All three bedrooms feature ensuites, with the master occupying the whole top level, with a study and flexible use second living room that can be shut off.

It will seamlessly open up to the wrap around entertaining terrace boasting the best view in the building. The 231 sqm residence will also feature its own internal lift, a second entertaining terrace on the first level, butler’s pantry, powder room and expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing ensuring the views are enjoyed from all the living areas. &nbsp;

Along with the conservation and restoration of the historic elements of Ballamac House, the property will receive an extensive landscaping makeover by award-winning Jane Irwin Landscape&nbsp;Architecture.

The landscaping vision is in response to the views and the heritage house, with all original sandstone utilised throughout the build so as to retain the buildings character, and only local native species selected where possible.

Future residents will also benefit from a communal outdoor area, complete with lush green gardens and a magnesium pool.&nbsp;

Construction on Ballamac House is expected to commence towards the end of 2023.

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=141700]

Ballamac House has stood proud on Coogee’s north headland for many years as one of the city’s most coveted addresses, having been converted to a strata title in the 1970’s.

Central Element green lit for Coogee's Ballamac House apartment redevelopment

Revised plans by&nbsp;Fender Katsalidis for the $111 million redevelopment of the Coogee Bay Hotel have been submitted.

The original plans to demolish significant parts of the hotel and build a new six-storey apartment building were met with significant opposition from both Randwick City Council and local residents.

The applicant took the matter to the Land &amp; Environment Court in November 2021, and since then, the case has been ongoing. However, on March 23, 2023, the LEC granted permission for the applicant to lodge amended plans.

<img alt="Render of the proposed Coogee development" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9bc29867-b60d-4ca4-bd3a-f9c5b0794472" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-04-03%20at%203.31.59%20pm.png?VersionId=4oVyhWm51qLJxDP.1oX5o4grAiZG7pOR" />

Under the new proposal, several existing buildings and structures on site will be demolished. However, the hotel and most of the Coogee Bay Road facade and beer garden will remain. The internal areas of the hotel will also be reconfigured, and 16 new and 15 refurbished rooms will be added.

To the west of the site a four and five-storey shop top residential building will be constructed, comprising 58 apartments, with seven one-bedroom, 25 two-bedroom and 24 three-bedroom apartments, in addition to two four-bedroom penthouses.

A new three-storey southern hotel wing, south of the beer garden, will be constructed, including 15 new hotel rooms. The existing beer garden area will also be upgraded, with the construction of new dining pavilions.

Additionally, 11 new retail tenancies, including cafes, shops, and restaurants, will be created in a ground-floor eat street precinct and Coogee Bay Road. A new public laneway will also be established, running from Coogee Bay Road to Arden Street, creating a through link.

<img alt="Render of the proposed Coogee development" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fc57fa6b-bca4-4457-a5e3-b2d9ee8cc018" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-04-03%20at%203.32.18%20pm.png?VersionId=XOQ0B5Nv2ZzR4PWvQwrnmrzunmftdLSI" />

Two levels of car parking will service the development, one at ground level and one basement carpark level, with around 159 spaces planned.&nbsp;

Currently, Randwick Council's external planning consultants are undertaking a detailed assessment of the amended plans, and community feedback will be carefully considered as part of the court proceedings.

Key amendments to the proposal:

<ul>
	<li>Building heights reduced from a maximum of 23.33m to 21.35m.</li>
	<li>Amendments to the building mass to retain view lines to key landforms including Wedding Cake Island, Dolphin Point and the northern headland of Coogee Beach.</li>
	<li>Reduction in basement excavation by two levels.</li>
	<li>Increased building setback to the southern boundary and accommodation of deep soil planting and additional communal open space.</li>
	<li>Removal of the ground level supermarket tenancy and provision of residential apartments to the street frontage of Vicar Street.</li>
	<li>Increased retention to four heritage building facades along Coogee Bay Road.</li>
	<li>Internal reconfiguration of pub building, hotel and all residential apartments.</li>
	<li>Inclusion of a three-storey building to the southern side of the beer garden. Provision of the car park entry from Arden Street only and removing the car park entrance from Vicar Street.</li>
	<li>Changes to the colour and materials used on the retail tenancies fronting Coogee Bay Road to respond to the character of this streetscape.</li>
</ul>

Under the new proposal, several existing buildings and structures on site will be demolished

Revised plans submitted for $111m Coogee Bay Hotel redevelopment

The landmark Coogee mansion, Ballamac House, is set to undergo a redevelopment into luxury apartments.

Sydney developer Central Element are seeking to transform the historic house, which has been flats for the last six decades. The building at 39 Arcadia Street, just 350 metres from the beach, will be restored and revived to its original glory, creating a collection of just eight apartments&nbsp;to be added to the east of the house.&nbsp;

The group’s vision of fusing old and new will bring the Ballamac House estate into a new era, with the restoration and new build designed by acclaimed architects, Tonkin Zulaikha Greer (TZG), who have collaborated with Central Element on a number of previous projects, including 25Hours Paddington and The Metro-Minerva Potts Point.&nbsp;

TZG’s Director, Tim Greer said their approach was to design both spectacular but also comfortable residences, which spoke to the site’s coastal location and embraced the natural elements of the surrounding environment.&nbsp;

“With Ballamac’s rich Coogee history and Central Element’s expertise, TZG Architects are making a new story. The things we chase in our stories as we craft them are timeless, rational and beautiful but the things that you remember are the small moments of wonder and delight that stay with you long after you have departed” Greer said.

All eight residences will feature three-bedrooms, with the rooftop and penthouse apartments to be split across two levels of living.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Two of the residences will sit within the original 1860’s house with the remaining six situated in the added apartment building, which will feature a communal outdoor entertaining area and garden.

Each of the residences will enjoy the locale of the waterfront location with uninterrupted views out to Wedding Cake Island.

The two apartments within the original house are set to be an ode to old-worldly living, with the retention of the external and internal walls of the original house, along with original fireplaces, mantel pieces, and decorative ceilings.&nbsp;

The residences will also see the reconstruction of the wrap-around verandah with the original rectangular cast iron columns, allowing for indoor to outdoor living.

The repair and conservation of the sandstone walls of the original house will be continued in the new apartment building, blending old and new.

There will be new landscaping by&nbsp;award-winning landscape architecture practice JILA, which will also see a communal plunge pool added.

Central Element’s Managing Director, Nathan Chivas said Ballamac House is a hallmark project for the group, designed to make a lasting impact on the celebrated beach lifestyle in one of Sydney’s most sought-after addresses.&nbsp;

“The legacy and famous history of the building will be preserved as we transform the former residence and add further luxury living spaces that will deliver an elevated lifestyle dimension to the landmark site,” he said.&nbsp;

Completion of the redevelopment is slated for 2024.&nbsp;

The building at 39 Arcadia Street, just 350 metres from the beach, will be restored and revived to its original glory

Central Element to redevelop Coogee's 1860’s Ballamac House into luxury apartments

The Sydney-based IPM has secured approval&nbsp;for their new Coogee project.

Randwick Council gave the green light to IPM to create a three-level, 20-apartment building at&nbsp;201-207 Carrington Road, halfway between Coogee Beach and Randwick.

The privately owned development and investment group will add to their already impressive portfolio which includes in excess of $2.5 billion worth of real estate projects.&nbsp;

There will be a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments in the block across the 2268 sqm site, which currently homes four single dwellings.

Paul Buljevic Design (PBD) designed the building, which will connect to its surrounding context through landscaping and&nbsp;a three-pod approach, allowing for full breaks between buildings, as well as giving relief to the bulk of the built form.&nbsp;

"The interplay of planes and introduction of finer vertical grains to the front facade breaks down the bulk further, along with creating a defined entry point to the building," the design statement read.

Each apartment is orientated toward the north, enhancing cross flow ventilation, solar access, and views.&nbsp;

"The design of the proposal responds to the current market demands, in relation to typologies and living patterns currently established in the local area, with apartments generously sized, following an open-plan layout, that maximises the use of the north-facing layout," the statement noted.

IPM has made themselves at home amongst the affluent suburbs over the years, with a portfolio featuring some of the most sought-after addresses.&nbsp;

Developing in some of Sydney's best beachside pockets, the group has taken up a number of projects from Sydney's east to as far north as Palm Beach.

Their latest is in Mona Vale, in the heart of the Mona Vale Town Centre on the Northern Beaches. They'll be delivering apartments above retail at&nbsp;19 Bungan Street. Their Palm Beach project on Barrenjoey Road will&nbsp;comprise just eight&nbsp;apartments, each with panoramic views across the waters of Pittwater.

The group will also build on a Newport site at&nbsp;11-17 Ocean Avenue which will home "coastal-inspired residences."

The privately owned development and investment group will add to their already impressive portfolio which includes in excess of $2.5 billion worth of real estate projects

Thoroughbred racing enthu­siast Victoria Samba is selling in Coogee.
It’s been a rental since Samba relocated to Melbourne.
It was most recently offered as a $1850-a-weeker last year, but is being offered with vacant possession through Jason Pantzer at Phillips Pantzer Donnelley for its September 26 auction.
Samba had paid $2.91 million in 2017 for the Dolphin St home when briefly moving from the Randwick home that she and then-husband, recruitment firm boss Mitch Hoare, sold for $3,575,000.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2020/9/7/coogee%202.jpg" alt="">
The Coogee home, on 220sqm, spans two levels ­designed to take advantage of its northerly aspect.
Thoroughly modern, the home has four bedrooms, a custom-fitted study, and an open-plan kitchen, living and dining area that spills on to a rear garden with built-in barbecue.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2020/9/7/coogee%203.jpg" alt="">
Samba, the daughter of the late Melbourne racing identity Les Samba, moved to the Mornington Peninsula late last year to live with her horse-veterinarian partner.

GWS midfielder Josh Kelly pulled his Coogee house from its auction yesterday.
The two-storey, three-bedroom house (pictured above) was listed due to “a change of circumstances.”
It was bought for $3.45m in April, but estate agent Alexander Phillips, of Phillips Pantzer Donnelley, struggled this month to find enough buyer interest, despite marketing the Division Street home with a reduced $3.2m guide.
 <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2020/7/28/coogee%202.jpg" alt="">
Elsewhere in Coogee, the horse trainer David Hayes and wife Prue pulled their bolthole from yesterday’s scheduled auction too (pictured below).
The three-bedroom Fernside garden apartment, bought for $2.3m in 2017, was listed through NG Farah agent Theo Karangis after their shift to Hong Kong.

The veteran film producer Glenys Rowe sold her longtime Coogee bolthole for a bullish $5.1 million at weekend auction.
Rowe produced the late 1980s cult film Dogs in Space, as well as God's Girls: Stories from an Australian Convent, Idiot Box and Feeling Sexy. 
There were 10 registered bidders who took the sale well past its $4.3 million reserve.
Auctioneer Damien Cooley took bids from half its interested parties.
She had bought the hillside Beach St property for $790,000 in 1994.
The four-bedroom home with ocean views has been an investment in recent years since Rowe has settled in Adelaide.
Ballard Property agent James Ball had an initial $4 million guide then raised this to $4.2 million, when they brought forward the auction by a week given the heightened level of buyer interest.
Realestate.com.au calculates Coogee’s median house price sits at $2.46 million, based on just 32 sales over the past year, according to realestate.com.au. 
Based on five years of sales, Coogee has seen a compound price growth rate of 6.7 percent for houses. Some years have seen 60 house sales.
