Not all apartment amenities are immediately visible.

Swimming pools, gyms, rooftop terraces and residents' lounges have long featured on buyers' wishlists, but as the way Australians live has changed, so too have the features that make apartment living more convenient.

Increasingly, buyers are placing value on the practical aspects of day-to-day life. Fast internet, EV charging, secure bike storage, flexible workspaces and parcel management are becoming just as relevant as lifestyle amenities, reflecting changing habits and expectations.

Online shopping has been one of the biggest drivers of that shift.

Australians spent a record $82.6 billion shopping online in 2025, with almost one in every four retail dollars now spent digitally, making parcel deliveries a routine part of everyday life rather than an occasional convenience.

For apartment residents, however, receiving those deliveries isn't always straightforward.

Without someone home to accept a parcel, deliveries can be redirected to a nearby Post Office, left in building foyers or common areas, or require building management to temporarily store packages. As apartment living continues to grow across Australia's cities, parcel management has become an increasingly important consideration for both residents and developers.

Australia Post's Parcel Locker network is one response to that shift.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/KPZ9j5FRdsQ?si=Qztc1dNP3ZvEIUhb" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

Rather than relying on home delivery, eligible parcels can be directed to a nominated Parcel Locker, where they're securely stored until collected. Once a parcel arrives, residents receive a notification through the AusPost app or SMS and can retrieve it using a one-time code or QR code at a time that suits them.

The network has expanded to more than 1,500 locations nationwide, with Parcel Lockers positioned at Post Offices, shopping centres, supermarkets, transport hubs and, increasingly, within or alongside residential developments.

That growing presence reflects a broader change in how apartment buildings are being planned.

Developers are increasingly considering the operational side of apartment living alongside traditional lifestyle amenities. Just as secure mailrooms, bicycle storage and EV charging have become more common inclusions, parcel management is emerging as another feature that supports everyday convenience.

It also helps preserve the arrival experience within a building. Carefully designed lobbies and communal spaces can quickly become cluttered when deliveries accumulate, while secure parcel solutions reduce the likelihood of missed deliveries or parcels being left unattended.

For buyers comparing apartments, these everyday details are becoming part of the decision-making process.

Location, floorplans and finishes remain fundamental, but the features that simplify daily life are carrying greater weight than they once did. As online shopping continues to shape consumer behaviour, secure parcel delivery is increasingly becoming another amenity worth looking for.

Parcel delivery is joining the apartment amenity checklist

Inca Property Group has lodged a State Significant Development Application (SSDA) for Dawn, a 53-apartment oceanfront development overlooking Mona Vale Beach.

The proposal, at 35-39 Darley Street East, would replace an existing 18-apartment strata building with a new owner-occupier-focused development comprising 53 two and three-bedroom apartments, including nine affordable built-to-rent residences delivered under the State's infill affordable housing scheme.

Positioned on a 2,679 sqm elevated site around 280 metres from Mona Vale Beach, the development has been designed to maximise panoramic ocean views while responding to the site's sloping topography.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/inca-property-group">Inca Property Group</a> Managing Director Josh Thompson said the State Significant pathway provided greater certainty for projects of this scale.

"This State Significant pathway gives the team real certainty to progress <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/dawn-35-39-darley-street-east-mona-vale-nsw-2103">Dawn</a> through to completion," Thompson said.

"It allows us to acquire a one-off site, design it carefully and deliver the right offering for the suburb, assessed by the NSW Government's planning department."

The project is one of the first developments in the area to be assessed under the NSW Government's Low and Mid-Rise Housing policy, with the site sitting on the edge of the policy's designated inner area.

The proposal includes three basement levels providing 124 car spaces, alongside a range of resident amenities including a swimming pool, gym, sauna, wellness facilities and private plunge pools for selected ground-floor and penthouse apartments.

<img alt="Dawn" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fc1a1daf-0ce4-4f12-9076-b1fa553c7a91" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-07-21%20at%208.42.11%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=4GZ9h.gpNkTljbxyAET8Jfhv51XUamDm" />

Thompson said Dawn had been designed specifically for owner-occupiers and downsizers, a buyer profile that has driven demand across Inca's recent Upper North Shore developments.

"The majority of buyers in our recent North Shore projects have been downsizers, and we are learning exactly what this market is looking for. Beyond the location itself, we have included resort-style amenities to deliver a genuine lifestyle offering," Thompson said.

Located within walking distance of Mona Vale Beach, the town centre, Mona Vale Golf Club and the Royal Motor Yacht Club, Dawn represents Inca's first Northern Beaches project following the sell-out of Tara on Park in Waitara and Ellis Residences, currently under construction in St Ives.

Construction will be undertaken by Inca's in-house construction arm, GOP Constructions.

Dawn is the latest major apartment proposal for Mona Vale, with the suburb emerging as one of the key beneficiaries of the NSW Government's new Low and Mid-Rise Housing policy.

New developer One Living, led by industry veteran Joseph Scuderi, recently secured a site on Mona Vale Road, on the border of Mona Vale and Pymble, where it is planning around 140 apartments.

IPM is also planning its third project in Mona Vale, significantly increasing the scale of its previous developments with an 82-apartment proposal at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/159-167-darley-street-west-mona-vale-nsw-2103">159-167 Darley Street West</a>, opposite Bayview Golf Course and less than 800 metres from Mona Vale town centre.

Seasoned Victorian apartment developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/central-equity">Central Equity</a> has logged more than $400 million in sales in its luxury apartment project Palmera Residences at Northcliffe on the Gold Coast.&nbsp;

Central Equity Director Karl Kutner said the sales result reflected a combination of location, product quality and delivery certainty with the project already under construction by building powerhouse Multiplex.&nbsp;

"Surpassing $400 million in sales since launch is a significant milestone and an outstanding endorsement of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/palmera-residences-gold-coast-18-garfield-terrace-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">Palmera Residences</a>,” he said.&nbsp;

"We believe one of the key reasons for this strong result is the confidence purchasers have in knowing the project is under construction with Multiplex. Buyers are increasingly looking for certainty. They want to know that the project they commit to today will be delivered by an experienced team with a proven track record."&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108274 project_image_fid=365782]

Kutner said it was clear there was still high demand for luxury projects that offered certainty of delivery.&nbsp;

“We are in a market where many residential developments have faced delays due to rising construction costs, labour shortages and financing challenges,” said Kutner.&nbsp;

"But having construction underway has provided our buyers with resounding confidence backed by more than 40 years of development delivery by Central Equity combined with construction by one of Australia's most respected construction companies."&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108274 project_image_fid=365785]

Central Equity is one of Australia's most experienced privately-owned property developers. Over more than four decades, the company has delivered in excess of 85 residential developments including 10,000 apartments and many thousands of stand alone homes.&nbsp;

Located on Garfield Terrace at Northcliffe, between Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach, Palmera Residences occupies one of the Gold Coast's most sought after beachside locations. The development has been designed to appeal to owner occupiers seeking premium residences that combine generous living spaces and resort style amenities.&nbsp;

Palmera Residences will feature an exceptional collection of resort style amenities, including two swimming pools: a generously sized family pool with safe shallow zones for relaxed recreation, and a 20 metre lap pool positioned to maximise all day sunlight.&nbsp;

Residents will also enjoy exclusive access to wellness and recreational facilities including a magnesium pool, sauna, yoga studio, expansive fitted gymnasium, resident lounge, outdoor BBQ’s&nbsp;and indoor and outdoor dining areas, together with a dedicated concierge and luxurious hotel inspired entrance foyer.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108274 project_image_fid=365767]

A unique feature at Palmera Residences has been designed to enhance the Gold Coast lifestyle which includes both indoor and outdoor gymnasium facilities, together with thoughtfully designed indoor and outdoor dining and entertaining areas. A corner café has also been incorporated to provide residents with a destination for their everyday needs.&nbsp;

Kutner said buyer demand had been broad based with purchasers attracted from interstate as well as throughout South East Queensland.&nbsp;

"We're seeing strong interest from owner occupiers, lifestyle buyers and people relocating to the Gold Coast. Many purchasers have been searching for a premium beachside residence where quality, design and delivery are equally important."&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108274 project_image_fid=365771]

Kutner said the sales milestone was an important achievement, but the focus remained firmly on delivering an exceptional development.&nbsp;

"While reaching $400 million in sales is an important milestone, our priority remains delivering a project that exceeds purchaser expectations,” he said.&nbsp;

"Palmera Residences has been designed to become one of the Gold Coast's landmark residential addresses, and we look forward to welcoming our purchasers to their new homes."&nbsp;

There are a limited number of residences remaining in selected configurations with pricing from $2,950,000 to $8,950,000. Palmera Residences is also crowned by expansive penthouses with wrap around views.

Construction certainty and strong buyer demand drive major sales result for luxury Gold Coast development

Palmera Residences fly out the door as sales pass $400 million

National property developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/goldfields-group">Goldfields</a> has appointed BINAH as its construction partner for Quartet, its new Brisbane apartment development in the undersupplied suburb of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/milton-qld-4064">Milton</a>.

Located just two kilometres from the Brisbane CBD and moments from key 2032 Olympic precincts, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/quartet-milton-33-manning-street-milton-qld-4064">Quartet</a> will deliver 131 one, two, three, and four-bedroom apartments priced from $1 million to $4.2 million, combining elevated design with a wellness-focused lifestyle offering.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108736 project_image_fid=368000]

Goldfields’ Chief Executive Officer, Lachlan Thompson, said the appointment of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/binah-constructions">BINAH</a> marked an important milestone for the project.&nbsp;

“Bringing BINAH on board as our construction partner will allow us to bring our vision for Quartet forward with a team that has a proven track record of delivering high-quality residential projects,” Thompson said.&nbsp;

“We’ve taken a considered approach to progressing the site because we wanted to deliver the whole package. Buyers ultimately back great developers, great projects and great builders, and with Quartet, we’ve made sure all three line up.

“People want certainty, they want to know the project will be built, that the homes will be delivered as promised, and that the developer stands behind the quality of what they create. That’s something Goldfields has built its reputation on over many years.”&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108736 project_image_fid=367993]

BINAH’s Managing Director, Khalil Hafza, said the company was proud to be partnering with Goldfields to deliver Quartet.&nbsp;

“Quartet is an exciting project to bring to life, particularly given the level of detail in the residences and the extensive rooftop amenity planned for the building,” Mr Hafza said.&nbsp;

“Our focus is on delivering a high-quality build that brings that design vision to life and creates homes residents will enjoy for many years.”&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108736 project_image_fid=367999]

The facilities at Quartet have been feared towards the roof, with a&nbsp;25 metre lap pool, spa, sauna and cold plunge, and a communal barbecue area and alfresco.

Town planning was designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> and brought to life by Melbourne-based architecture firm Cera Stribley.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/interior-designers/cera-stribley">Cera Stribley</a> Co-Founder and Managing Principal, Dom Cerantonio, said the project responds to both its riverside setting and Brisbane’s evolving urban character.&nbsp;

“Quartet has been designed to sit comfortably within its riverside context, offering a refined take on urban living through well-planned, generously proportioned residences that will stand the test of time,” Mr Cerantonio said.&nbsp;

“An emphasis on natural light, natural textures and carefully selected finishes from timber and marble to premium appliances, creates calm, considered interiors designed for comfort and long-term liveability.”&nbsp;

Construction of Quartet will commence in July 2026, with completion anticipated in Q4 2028.

Goldfields appoints BINAH for Quartet apartments in Milton

The first partnership between national developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/fortis">Fortis</a> and Adelaide-based developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/otello">Otello</a> has made a strong start, with the pair securing $21 million in unconditional sales at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/one-four-four-hutt-adelaide-144-hutt-street-adelaide-sa-5000">One Four Four Hutt</a>&nbsp;on the edge of the Adelaide CBD.

Over a third of apartments have been snapped up in the boutique 44-apartment project on the corner of Hutt Stret and Wakefield Road. Local downsizers and owner-occupiers wanting to remain in Adelaide's tightly-held southeast quarter have been the most prominent purchasers.

The DKO-designed, mixed-use development is one of the few new apartment projects in the precinct, an area where new housing supply has remained limited despite continued demand from buyers wanting to stay close to the CBD, Victoria Park and Adelaide's established east-end amenities.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151233 project_image_fid=375378]

Fortis Head of Development SA Arthur Dendrinos said the early sales reflected both the strength of the local owner-occupier market and confidence in the Hutt Street location.

"The level of early commitment reflects the confidence local buyers have in the Hutt Street precinct," Dendrinos said.

"Many purchasers are long-term east-end residents who love the area and want to stay connected to the neighbourhood. They recognise the value of a well-designed, well-located development.

"Our partnership with Otello has been central to this success, and the number of unconditional sales at this stage only strengthens our confidence in the South Australian market."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=151233 project_image_fid=375379]

Otello Director Daniel Harris said the sales result also highlighted the lack of new apartment opportunities within the Hutt Street precinct.

"One Four Four Hutt has clearly resonated with buyers, with strong early sales reflecting both the appeal of the Hutt Street corridor and the lifestyle on offer," Harris said.

"The activated ground-floor retail has also been a key drawcard, with purchasers responding to the vision of a more vibrant and connected streetscape, not just the residences themselves."

One Four Four Hutt will deliver 44 one, two and three-bedroom apartments, alongside a collection of penthouses, above a ground-floor retail offering designed to further activate the Hutt Street precinct.

Construction is scheduled to commence in the third quarter of this year, with completion anticipated in 2028.

A piece of Sydney maritime history available at the auction of 20 Market Street built by 1910s Drummoyne ferry master, Captain George Gerdes.
Captain Gerdes and his wife Emma built the house around 1912 for their family of seven girls and two boys. Now the house that once belonged to the Gerdes family is set to go to auction on August 1 through Fiona Hellams of Ray White Drummoyne.
Ms Hellams said the historical aspect of the home and recently done renovations make it hard to put a price on the house.
“There is limited stock on the market in Drummoyne at the moment and nothing that is comparable to this house so it’s difficult to give out a price guide,” Ms Hellams said.
“We have chosen to take it to auction so we can get the most transparent indication of what this property is worth and the best the market has to offer.
Current owners Mark and Elaine Dyson have overseen considerable renovations since being built in the early 20th century.
The Dyson’s renovations earned the Drummoyne property an award in 2007 from The Master Builders Association for Excellence in Housing Awards in New South Wales.
The original dormitory was divided and converted into a large federation style bathroom and a sitting room or guest bedroom while the formal lounge became a large bedroom. The house was also extended and opened up to allow light and a visual connection to the garden with flowing indoor and outdoor living areas.
Recycled timber was sourced to match the wide Baltic pine floorboards, along with a 150 year old ironbark timber structural support column.
The upper level was designed to match the streetscape architecture of the existing house, whilst creating a large, light and airy space to accommodate the master bedroom, ensuite, open dressing area and parent’s retreat. The front balcony also extended the view from the house across Centre Point Tower, Sydney CBD and Callan Park.
<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/2020/7/10/1_Market-St-20-Drummoyne-Backyard_2-Low.jpg" alt="">
Both in the design industry, Ms Dyson said when it came to redesigning their home the couple really wanted to keep the integrity of the original house without doing a federation reproduction.   “The additions had to pay homage to the original house so we kept the high skirting boards and the original flooring as well as sourcing baltic pine floorboards because I wanted the flooring to flow to the new part of the house,” Ms Dyson said. “When we renovated the house we wanted to bring in a modern look and not completely ignore that it is an old house but keep those architectural details without making it a blank box. “We opened up the back of the house as well to let the sunlight come in. I do love the back of the house because it has this lovely flow from indoor to outdoor and it gets sun all year round.” While stock is low, Ms Hellams said the Drummoyne area has been popular with buyers looking for an inner city, family friendly area without the price tag.  “The house is in such a beautiful location, it’s only about 6 kms from the city in a very family orientated spot and because it’s got a lot of space for a family that’s the segment of the market we are expecting to see interest from,” Ms Hellams said.  “We’re over the bridge, a bit further away than Balmain from the city centre but a lot of inner city buyers are starting to look at Drummoyne more closely. “We’re getting a few out of area buyers as well, they are probably seeing Drummoyne as representing good value for money right now with a bit of extra space added in. “We’re seeing a lot of buoyancy for buyers and there’s a lot looking at the moment so demand is high.”
<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/2020/7/10/1_Bowman-St-27B-Drummoyne-Facade_1.jpg" alt="">
The Ray White Drummoyne office is well known for offering rarely available character home gems like Captain Gerdes’ house. Drummoyne agent Chris Wilkins is also set to sell a beautifully renovated Californian bungalow at <a href="https://ecomms.raywhite.com/collect/click.aspx?u=dDVJNUFaaUtibHRHSGNNM0RZcDByOS9BRzNhQXBsaC9KUjA5MHRxTzhHTHlVMnVqZUhqVWhKWlNDRGVDSUIzV2Q4WjBxdTdTODNjNGhtR3NGVkVRMmdGemVjYnUzN2N5QmhTU2JRS2pIMm42YzZGTnZyOGN4dGhZQUFyc2xzbHNvTU8zM0J6a3hTYWhjNEtCZTZnQ2txQ1pIcHdIa3p6UGU4S1VDVnJWUFdJPQ==&amp;rh=ff0064bf150646b0751ade6c95489c1fa8563148" target="_blank">27B Bowman St</a> (pictured above) through auction. The four bedroom property will be going to auction on July 25 and has already had strong interest from buyers after only being on the market for a short time.

The little known Harris family have listed the imposing Drummoyne riverfront, Clovelly, a substantial, two storey Federation house with $8 million hopes.
Built of red brick with pebble dash featuring in its chimneys, it was built about 1904 for Stanley Rea, a dentist. 
There have only been two families in ownership since <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-qld-ascot-128253082" target="_blank">the historic treasure</a> was built with its 22 metre frontage to Drummoyne Bay. 
It goes to June 30 private auction through local agents Warwick Williams and Adrian Sereni.
The sandstone boatshed, originally built as the bathing house for the now demolished Drummoyne House, is an enclosed luxurious swimming pool.
Clovelly has panels of leaded art-nouveau glass windows.
It is one of the few surviving waterfront properties that retains house, setting and garden and waterfront features.
It last sold at $1,525,000 in 1995.

Historic 1904 Drummoyne red brick riverfront trophy home listed with $8 million hopes

GWS Giants star Toby Greene, who has just secured a six year deal with the club, bought his first home during the off-season.
The star forward has bought in Drummoyne, where, judging may his instragram, he's clearly fallen for the sunsets over the bay.
He's spent $1.84 million on a charming Federation semi, dating back to circa 1910.
The 24 year old paid around $350,000 under the median house price in Drummoyne which according to CoreLogic sits at $2.2 million.
<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/2018/3/13/greene2.jpg" alt="">
His new contract, the biggest in the Giants short history, ties him to the club until 2024, with a salary expected to be around $800,000 to $1 million a year.
Greene, who hails from Victoria, has already played 117 games for the club since being picked up in the 2011 draft when he was 18.
He made an instant impact in the club's first season in 2012, winning the best first year player award.
Like most of his team mates, he started off renting in Sydney at Breakfast Point.
In 2016 he was selected in the All-Australian team as the half-forward flank.
Upon signing the big money contract earlier this week, which stands as one of the longest in the AFL, Greene took to Instagram.
Accompanying a couple of pictures from his time at the Giants was the caption: "Proud and excited to share the next 6 years of my journey with <a class="notranslate" href="https://www.instagram.com/gwsgiants/" target="_blank">@gwsgiants</a> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/letthegoodtimesroll/" target="_blank">#letthegoodtimesroll</a>."
His new home, which he'll no doubt be sharing with long-time girlfriend Marley Gordon, has views over Iron Cove Bay and Rodd Island.
It has two bedrooms, one bathrooms, a formal dining room and a north facing courtyard on its 200 sqm parcel
A Corbelled arch entry hall is one of its few remaining periods features.
The wide-fronted semi marketed as offering scope to reconfigure to a three bedroom home or to add a second level.
Cobden &amp; Hayson Drummoyne agents Frank Colacicco and Mia Fredrix sold the home.
The Giants, which open their season against the Western Bulldogs, face their eastern suburbs inclined rivals, the Swans in round three under the lights at the SCG.

Hotelier Rod Salmon has sold his waterfront mansion in Drummoyne for more than $12 million, a record price for the inner west suburb.
The three-level residence is at the end of Wrights Point
The waterfront mansion was bought in 2014 from fellow hotelier Sam Arnaout who had commissioned the residence following his purchase of the 700-square-metre property in 2007 for $6 million.
​The three-level house includes five bedrooms, six bathrooms, a four-car garage, a rooftop terrace, gym, home theatre, swimming pool, separate living area with a wet bar, and separate guest apartment.
It comes with waterfront lawn that extends to Crown Land.
The record ends the Balmain peninsula’s decades long hold on the inner west’s top sales records, most recently set in 2014 at $11.8 million with the waterfront house purchase in Balmain East by the art collector Paris Neilson. 
The prior was set at $11.5 million in 2008 when Mark Ainsworth, son of billionaire poker machine maker Len Ainsworth, bought a Gothic-style villa on the Birchgrove waterfront.
