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">12-storey project with 88 apartments</a> above an activated ground plane with a shop and hospitality spaces.

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."

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/hyecorp-property-group">Hyecorp</a> is down to its final three-bedroom apartments at Audrey, the developer’s parkside St Leonards South project, pairing the remaining homes with a limited-time offer.

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. Many of the three-bedroom apartments capture views toward the city and Harbour Bridge.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110379 project_image_fid=207373]

Hyecorp’s internal design team, Jackson Teece, has emphasised a consistent level of specification across the building, including Miele appliances, integrated refrigeration, brushed metal tapware and large-format stone detailing that conceals cabinetry.

The Tiffany Collection, crowning the development on Levels 12 to 15, features added luxury of fluted standalone baths, heated bathroom floors, custom walk-in robes and upgraded appliance packages across its spacious 155 to 159 sqm homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110379 project_image_fid=301367]

Beyond the private residences, Audrey carries a strong amenity focus. Residents have access to an indoor lap pool and spa, personal training studio, private cinema, music room and private dining room.

A landscaped rooftop terrace with CBD views anchors the communal offering, complemented by an onsite café and an integrated daycare centre within the project.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110379 project_image_fid=198680]

The location continues to be a drawcard for buyers, with new retail additions at Mall 88, including Coles, alongside Woolworths and the established offerings of Forum Plaza. St Leonards Station and Crows Nest Metro is within easy reach, as are local health precincts such as the Royal North Shore Public and Private Hospitals. Nearby green spaces include Newlands Park, Gore Hill Oval and Naremburn Park, supporting strong day-to-day amenity for families and downsizers alike.

Hyecorp is expected to welcome residents to Hyecorp in early 2026.

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

For more than four decades, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/lewis-land-group">Lewis Land</a>, Australia’s oldest private property developer, has held a 16-hectare waterfront site in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/biggera-waters-qld-4216">Biggera Water</a> on the Gold Coast, strategically positioning it for a landmark project.&nbsp;

Continuing a long-term vision for the northern Gold Coast, after pioneering legacy developments such as Sovereign Islands and Ephraim Island, the company in 2023 unveiled the masterplanned community, Harbour Shores.

This visionary development is set to deliver more than 2,000 homes and accommodate over 4,500 residents. <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/harbour-shores-biggera-waters-564-oxley-drive-biggera-waters-qld-4216">Harbour Shores</a> has achieved the Gold Coast’s first and highest 6 Star Green Star Communities v1.1 rating, signifying a world-leading standard for a sustainable, fossil-fuel-free residential community with extensive parklands, a 1.2km waterfront boardwalk, and resort-style amenities. Lewis Land CEO Brett Draffen describes Harbour Shores as a “village of villages.”

“Harbour Shores represents the largest and most dynamic community development in Lewis Land’s 65-year history, delivering architectural homes and apartments immersed in nature and world-class amenities,” Draffen said.&nbsp;

“From the outset, we assembled a first-class team of architects, landscape designers, planners and placemaking experts and set an ambitious sustainability goal for Harbour Shores to become the group’s first completely fossil-fuel-free development.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113271 project_image_fid=353228]

The first stage of Harbour Shores launched in late 2024 comprising of The Residences, just six three- and four-bedroom waterfront villas with private plunge pools, and two five-storey mid-rise apartment buildings called The Waterline and Palm House, both offering two- and three-bedroom well-sized apartments with open-plan interiors and contemporary finishes.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/colliers">Colliers</a> Queensland Director David Higgins, who has handled sales at Harbour Shores since its inception, says buyer demand has been consistent from day one. “Our buyers are generally end user locals who live within 15 kms of the site,” Higgins says.&nbsp;

“These buyers are discerning, well researched and understand the incredible quality of amenity on offer to all residents who purchase at Harbour Shores, that has no comparison across the Gold Coast market. Our master planned project offers location with walkability to an incredible array of shopping, health and lifestyle options with park frontage and waterside amenity, proving to be very attractive to local end users.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113271 project_image_fid=290033]

For Harbour Shores to achieve the ground-breaking 6 Star Green Star Communities v1.1-rating, all residences within Harbour Shores are completely fossil-fuel-free, with its infrastructure powered solely by electricity.&nbsp;

Residents will be able to utilise 100 per cent renewable energy sources, significantly reducing their carbon footprint. They will also have access to 100 per cent GreenPower®, improving air quality by eliminating harmful emissions from cooktops, ovens, and heaters.

The development also incorporates a 1,000kW solar PV system, which is projected to reduce peak electricity consumption by an impressive 34 per cent.

The masterplan integrates sustainable infrastructure such as water-retention tanks, solar power, and EV charging stations, alongside the planting of more than 200,000 tropical and native plants.&nbsp;

On-site rainwater harvesting will irrigate gardens, saving thousands of litres of potable water annually, while water-efficient appliances will further reduce consumption and costs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113271 project_image_fid=348788]

To create not just homes but a lifestyle for the several thousand residents who will call Harbour Shores home over the next decade, Lewis Land is delivering an unrivalled range of resort-style amenities. The community will feature a 25-metre lagoon pool, gym, yoga studio, sauna, tennis courts, and a 1.2km waterfront boardwalk.&nbsp;

A future stage will deliver The Clubhouse, a social hub with indoor–outdoor entertaining spaces, while cafés will add doorstep convenience, complemented by the development’s proximity to Harbour Town.

Respected construction company Greyburn is delivering the first residential stage at Harbour Shores and is on track to complete the initial apartment buildings and waterfront homes by mid-2026, with the first residents of this one-of-a-kind masterplanned community moving in shortly after.

Deepdene

The Melbourne property developer, Hive Properties, nailed their proposed design of The Gratis, a collection of the most luxurious residents in Deepdene.

Hive had Embrace Architects design the building, which features a metallic finish to concrete soffit, double glazed aluminium windows, and natural stone cladding.

The interiors of the 12 three-bedroom apartments were handled by the renowned designer&nbsp;Adele Bates.

<a href="/buildings/the-gratis-918-920-burke-road-deepdene" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/exterior_0.jpg" /></a>

That opens to extensive outdoor space through floor to ceiling glass doors.

<a href="/buildings/the-gratis-918-920-burke-road-deepdene" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/kitchen.jpg" /></a>

Clare Voitin, the wife of lawyer John Voitin, has listed their Deepdene home for sale.
Kay &amp; Burton Hawthorn agents Rebecca Edwards and Daniel Bradd have a $2.95 million to $3.25 million guide.
The Terry Street home is solely owned by Clare, who paid $1 million in 2007.
Two years later the five bedroom home was constructed on the 735 sqm block with some $500,000 spent building the home and pool.
The home and his former office were raided last year by the Echo Taskforce, as part of an investigation into laundering and concealment by the Comanchero motorcycle gang.

A Lewis Coote-designed Deepdene trophy home has been listed for sale.
The single level home at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-vic-deepdene-130333778" target="_blank">1B Angle Road</a> sits in a garden oasis with a private swimming pool.
Modernist Australia suggests it was a very early 70s Lewis Coote designed home. 
"The C-shaped floor plan will sucker in the MCM die-hards," it suggested.

"This lovely residence hopefully will attract some form of live-in owner and disperse that sulphuric stench of development which envelops such duel access, school-zoney property," it concluded.
The home last traded for $972,000 in 2005.
It has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a study.
Kay &amp; Burton Hawthorn agents Daniel Bradd and Scott Patterson are marketing the home with a $2.65 million to $2.95 million guide.
