<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/urban-property-group">Urban Property Group</a> is advancing a major residential and mixed-use development in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/edmondson-park-nsw-2174">Edmondson Park</a>, with plans for 15 buildings delivering more than 1,800 apartments in one of Sydney’s fastest-growing transport-oriented precincts.

The development application covers a consolidated 3.2-hectare landholding across Buchan Avenue, within walking distance of Edmondson Park Station and adjacent to the future high school site.

The 15 buildings will range in size, from around four to 40 storeys. They will deliver around 1,827 apartments, at a minimum. Some of the apartments might be designated build-to-rent, and some co-living and affordable housing.

The largest of the three parcels, Site 5, will accommodate 871 apartments along with the full retail offering. Site 3 will house 552 apartments and Site 4, 404.

Development around Edmondson Park Station has been under consideration since 2010, when Landcom lodged a concept plan for the Edmondson Park South Precinct. The plan included 3,530 dwellings and a new town centre.

UPG later acquired five sites from Landcom. Two of these sites, which are not part of the current application, are located opposite Site Three. They have approval for 178, three-level townhouses.

The location’s proximity to key infrastructure—particularly the train station and Ed.Square Town Centre—has positioned Edmondson Park as a critical node in the Western Parkland City’s long-term housing strategy. Its dual frontages and adjacency to education and retail amenities further enhance its potential as a high-density urban hub.

Urban’s latest plans reflect growing momentum in higher-density development across south-west Sydney, with increasing buyer and investor interest in well-connected precincts that integrate transport, retail, and community infrastructure.

Sunshine Coast developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/cube-developments">Cube Developments</a> has secured a prime Golden Beach site for $10.775 million, with plans already lodged for a new lifestyle development as demand for quality residential opportunities across the region continues to surge.&nbsp;

A national expressions of interest campaign led by Colliers agents Nick Dowling and Baydn Dodds resulted in the sale of the 11,236 sqm site at 9 Onslow Street Golden Beach, just 100 metres from the beach.

Cube has submitted a development application for a five-storey, 60-unit residential project to be delivered on a 2,034 sqm portion of the site. Featuring sweeping ocean and Glasshouse Mountain views, resort-style amenities including a pool, recovery spa, food and beverage outlet and &nbsp;commercial space it is designed to appeal to downsizers and lifestyle seekers and represents a &nbsp;major step in the reinvigoration of Golden Beach.&nbsp;

<img alt="9 Onslow St" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="63e0c976-af65-408c-b531-0e44f44ee598" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/01_CUBE_9OnslowSt_artist%20impression%20EXTERNAL%2001.jpg?VersionId=IUC5T0BpnyT7_DMOtDIxis0DfCd30LRJ" />

Cube’s planned development on the Onslow Street site will join its growing Sunshine Coast portfolio of high calibre projects, which includes Oasis at Bokarina Beach and Nature at Cotton Tree.&nbsp;

Cube Developments Director Scott Juniper said Golden Beach was fast becoming one of Queensland’s most sought-after property destinations.&nbsp;

“The once sleepy suburb of Golden Beach has well and truly arrived,” Juniper said.&nbsp;

“World-class infrastructure projects, coupled with an unmatched water-based lifestyle, are fuelling &nbsp;growing demand in the area.”&nbsp;

The Onslow Street site is currently occupied by Golden Beach Holiday Park improved with a 12-room &nbsp;motel-style complex, 70 powered caravan sites, a manager’s residence, and amenities. It is zoned for &nbsp;a maximum 18-metre height limit, allowing for sweeping water views from future development.&nbsp;

Colliers Sunshine Coast Managing Director Nick Dowling said the transaction added to a string of &nbsp;major development plays in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/caloundra-qld-4551">Caloundra</a>, one of Australia’s most supply-constrained and tightly held &nbsp;coastal markets.&nbsp;

“We saw really strong interest in the site with developers drawn to its walkable amenity, laid-back &nbsp;lifestyle, and the coasts’ growing infrastructure pipeline,” Nick Dowling said.&nbsp;

“The site provided an ideal opportunity for developers to take advantage of a rapidly growing pocket of the Coast.”&nbsp;

The Sunshine Coast new apartment market is booming, with Gardner Vaughan recently securing a site on Bulcock Street, and RCQ planning another three towers down the road.

Colliers agent Baydn Dodds said&nbsp;transaction reflects the ongoing strength of the Sunshine Coast market and the high level of &nbsp;demand for development opportunities in lifestyle destinations like Caloundra.

“The Sunshine Coast is forecast to grow by nearly 240,000 people to 2046, requiring almost 90,000 &nbsp;new homes. That equates to around 3,600 new dwellings per year just to keep up.&nbsp;

“The region is one of only three markets nationally to record an increase in crane activity, showing &nbsp;renewed momentum across the development pipeline—particularly in the residential sector."

Strong developer appetite for Sunshine Coast continues as Colliers transact another Caloundra site, cementing the area’s status as a growth hotspot

Cube secures Golden Beach site amid fierce development demand 

Builder-developer McNab has received development approval for <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/tannery-residences-439-montague-road-west-end-qld-4101">The Tannery Residences</a> in Brisbane’s West End – a project that will set a new benchmark for integrating heritage preservation with modern wellness-focused living.

The original 19th-century Dixon’s Tannery – a rare piece of Brisbane’s industrial history – will be carefully preserved and reimagined as ‘the Retreat’, a communal wellness space at the heart of the vibrant 10-storey residential precinct.

McNab Founder and Executive Chairman Michael McNab said the project provided a unique opportunity to pay tribute to Brisbane’s rich tannery history as part of the premium residential building.

“This isn’t just about building homes, it’s about preserving Brisbane’s past while creating spaces that genuinely support residents’ wellbeing,” McNab said.

“Properties that honour history while delivering modern design have unique appeal and there’s a growing demand for spaces with both character and legacy.

“This is the first truly integrated wellness and heritage project of its kind in Brisbane, and we’ve worked closely with heritage consultants and designers to ensure it respects and elevates the site’s legacy.

“By incorporating over 1,100sqm of dedicated communal space across the ground level and rooftop, The Tannery responded directly to this shift we’re seeing in buyer priorities.”

Designed in collaboration with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cottee-parker-architects">Cottee Parker Architects</a>, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/aspect-studios">Aspect Studios</a>, and Tom Mark Henry, The Tannery will deliver 81 two-, three-, and four-bedroom residences.

Residents will enjoy expansive rooftop amenities, including a pool and landscaped gardens, outdoor dining areas, a sunset lawn, and dog-friendly zones.

The Retreat, thoughtfully integrated into the original tannery building, will include a sauna and steam room, hot and cold plunge pools, an outdoor shower and tropical seating area, a large commercial-grade gym with dedicated cardio and weights zones, and a Pilates and stretch studio.

Additional resident spaces include a private dining room, cinema, library, and co-working areas – all designed to foster connection and wellbeing, within a setting rich in character and history.

Jade Nottage from Tom Mark Henry said The Tannery Residences sought to blend the original building’s heritage elements with a modern subtropical design.

“We were inspired by the rich history of West End and the former heritage tannery. With a site with such diverse history, we wanted to create something that really feels connected to its past – a place that brings back and celebrates traditional crafts, community, nature, and well-being,” Nottage said.

“Our goal was to create an authentic and serene sanctuary – a retreat from the city that breathes new life into the old tannery and its story."

The 4,465 sqm site at 439 Montague Road will also retain a significant and much-loved mature Hoop Pine to the driveway entrance with extensive design planning undertaken to ensure its preservation.

The Tannery follows a string of recent successes for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mcnab-developments">McNab</a>, including White Main Beach – awarded Queensland’s Best Apartment Building over $50 million – and strong sales at Elements Budds Beach, where more than 75 per cent of apartments are sold and construction is well underway.

Construction of The Tannery Residences is scheduled to commence in the third quarter of 2025, with completion expected in late 2027.

Leading Gold Coast developer Sherpa Property Group has sold all of the 35 apartments in their coastal Palm Beach apartment development, Perspective Nexus, ahead of its September completion.

“To have now sold-out of Perspective Nexus before completion is just a fantastic result,” said Christie Leet, Founder of Sherpa Property Group.&nbsp;

“The sales have largely been driven by local downsizers, many live in Palm Beach already, who have been captivated by the beach lifestyle that Nexus will offer.

“We started designing this project in 2023, and to be just months out of from completion with all residences now sold is truly rewarding, and a testament to the hard work our team have put in, but the journey doesn’t finish here.”&nbsp;

Sherpa will be servicing the residents beyond settlement including managing any rentals.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108324 project_image_fid=250149]

"We have also hired a full-time concierge service who will assist with the move in process to show residents how to use their appliances, have someone set up their flat packs or run to Bunnings – whatever we can do to make the move-in that bit easier," Leet added.

Located at 949-953 Gold Coast Highway, Palm Beach, Perspective Nexus will deliver a collection of 35 apartments, including two half-floor penthouses, and three two-storey sky homes, with those on the upper levels capturing&nbsp;views of Currumbin Alley to the Pacific Ocean.

Residents at Perspective Nexus will enjoy exclusive access to a suite of resort-style amenities, including a wellness centre with magnesium spa, sauna and steam room, as well as pool, outdoor BBQ area, and alfresco dining area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108324 project_image_fid=245951]

“Palm Beach really means a lot to us at Sherpa. It’s a special place, and we’re proud to be contributing to its next chapter,” Leet said.

“We’ve put a lot of thought into creating something that fits the area and enhances the lifestyle locals already love."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108324 project_image_fid=250148]

Perspective Nexus marks the latest success in Sherpa’s ‘Perspective’ portfolio, following the strong momentum at Perspective Helm on Chevron Island, which is now 90% sold.&nbsp;

The record-breaking $10 million sale of Penthouse 10 at Helm earlier this year has reinforced Sherpa’s position as a leading creator of premium, owner-occupier residences across the Gold Coast.&nbsp;

With construction on track for completion in September by LPS Group, Perspective Nexus is set to become Palm Beach’s most exclusive new address.&nbsp;

Residents will soon be handed the keys to the boutique collection of four-bedroom townhomes at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/burton-place-ashburton-12-14-high-street-road-ashburton-vic-3147">Burton Place</a>, with move-ins expected in just three weeks.

Farey &amp; Co are now offering private inspections, with limited residences remaining as construction approaches completion.

In an area where development is rare and competition for quality homes remains strong, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/burton-place-ashburton-12-14-high-street-road-ashburton-vic-3147">Burton Place</a> introduces a practical solution for those looking to stay in Ashburton without giving up space, comfort, or design quality.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4398 project_image_fid=309303]

Developed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/leeka-group">Leeka Group</a>, Burton Place comprises just eight four-bedroom townhomes across three levels, offering features more commonly found in the standalone family homes that define the area.

Set back from High Street Road behind landscaped pathways and a wide, private driveway, the development is arranged across two symmetrical blocks of four homes.

The architecture favours robust, enduring materials, contemporary brickwork, full-height glazing, and minimal detailing, designed to offer both longevity and ease of maintenance.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4398 project_image_fid=309299]

Each home includes a double lock-up garage with direct internal access, a dedicated study for flexibility, and both balconies and private courtyards that provide outdoor space without requiring ongoing upkeep.

Interiors prioritise clarity and function: kitchens feature Bosch appliances, stone benchtops, and custom joinery, while open-plan living areas flow naturally to outdoor zones. Full-height windows ensure ample natural light across all three levels.

Master bedrooms include generous walk-in robes and ensuites finished in polished stone with brushed nickel fixtures. Secondary bedrooms are carpeted, well-proportioned, and serviced by discreet, well-appointed bathrooms.

The overall layout supports privacy between zones while maintaining accessibility across each level.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4398 project_image_fid=3027]

Burton Place’s location supports a car-light lifestyle, just minutes from <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/ashburton-vic-3147">Ashburton</a> Village and close to local green spaces including Ashburton Park and Markham Reserve.

With cafés, grocers, healthcare services, and public transport nearby, the project caters to buyers seeking amenity-rich living just 25 minutes from the CBD.

Construction is over 85 per cent complete, with settlement and move-ins expected early next month.

First Sponsor

A consortium led by Singapore-listed First Sponsor has joined forces with ICD Property to redevelop the City Tattersalls Club project in Sydney.
It is First Sponsor ’s first Australian project since its inception in 2007.
First Sponsor primarily operates across property development, property holding and property financing and holds investments
The partnership comes following the landmark decision by the City of Sydney on November 14 to grant envelope approval to ICD Property for the Stage 1 Concept Development Application of its City Tattersalls Club site.
The approval allows for plans to rejuvenate the entire clubhouse, including retail, restaurants, a combined hotel and Club reception on the ground level, as well as an event space, co-working centre, health and wellbeing facilities and other member facilities.
<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/2019/11/27/City%20Tattersalls%20Club%20-%20Terrace%20-%20Rev%20C.jpg" alt="">
There are also plans to develop a 49-storey tower above the historic site comprising residential apartments and a high-end hotel (plus ancillary facilities).
First Sponsor will provide equity partnership alongside its investor consortium and will pool its experience across property development to assist in the delivery of the project.
It will act as the sole construction financier and will provide funding for t.he delivery of the project.
The collaboration is currently conditional on certain regulatory approvals and conditions and these are expected to be formally achieved in early 2020.
“Receiving support from such a significant property player in China and the Netherlands is a testament to our vision for the City Tattersalls Club redevelopment and we look forward to working alongside First Sponsor, and the club itself,” said ICD Deputy Managing Director Sal Quah.
“In addition, receiving construction funding from First Sponsor will allow for a more efficient and streamlined process with works on the City Tattersalls Club earmarked to commence following Stage 2 approval.”
The First Sponsor/ICD Property joint venture and the City Tattersalls Club are preparing to undergo a design competition process with the City of Sydney in 2020, where a prestigious lineup of architects will vie for the design of the City Tattersalls Club in order to achieve the highest possible outcome for the site.
Submission of a Stage 2 DA will follow soon after.
The deal was brokered by CBRE.
