Abadeen has released the whole-floor penthouse crowning its recently completed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/park-residences-cremorne-2-sutherland-street-cremorne-nsw-2090">Park Residences</a> development in Cremorne, bringing the near-300 sqm residence to market for the first time.

Occupying the entire top floor of the boutique Lower North Shore development, the penthouse includes 221 sqm of internal living and a 74 sqm wraparound terrace, with a prized north-facing aspect taking in views across Middle Harbour.

The residence has been completed and fully furnished following a collaboration between Abadeen Executive Chairman Justin Brown and internationally recognised interior designer Jack Freeman, Founder and Managing Director of FREEMAN &amp; CO.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen">Abadeen</a> and Freeman approached the penthouse as a finished home, sourcing furniture, artwork, lighting and objects from Australia and overseas.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378718]

Pieces from Parisian design house Pierre Augustin Rose sit alongside contemporary artworks and bespoke lighting, with Freeman drawing on recent visits to PAD Paris and Salone del Mobile Milano for the final collection.

Brown said the aim was to create a penthouse that felt more like a large-scale private home than a traditional apartment.

"The experience begins the moment the lift doors open. You're welcomed into an elegant dining room before the home opens into an extraordinary living space framed by sun-drenched harbour views.

"Every time someone walks through the front door they pause. It's not just the view, it's the incredible sense of space, the warmth created by the northern sunlight that fills the interiors, and the way every room connects so effortlessly.

"It has all the proportions of a luxury home, while delivering the effortless lifestyle and personalised experience of living in a world-class six-star hotel, combined with the simplicity and convenience of apartment living."

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378713]

A secure lift provides exclusive access to the penthouse level, opening to a dedicated arrival foyer and dining area before the residence expands into its main living and entertaining spaces.

Floor-to-ceiling glazing runs across the northern side of the home, connecting the interiors with the terrace and Middle Harbour outlook.

The penthouse also features a fireplace and substantial chef's kitchen, while the wraparound terrace has been designed to accommodate both everyday outdoor living and larger-scale entertaining.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378720]

Freeman said the interiors had been deliberately kept restrained to complement the scale, natural light and outlook already established by the architecture.

"The penthouse is a serene study in quiet luxury," Freeman said.

"The interior pairs soft, sculptural forms with warm timber, pale stone and a restrained neutral palette. Curated artwork and metallic accents add depth, while abundant natural light creates a calm, effortlessly refined atmosphere. In my world, less is always more."

Freeman said the approach was centred around collecting individual pieces rather than simply decorating the apartment.

"Every material, every object and every piece of furniture has been curated with intention. I am a true believer in collecting versus decorating.

"The architecture already provided extraordinary natural light, remarkable volume and an uninterrupted connection to Middle Harbour. Our role was to complement those qualities with unique one-of-a-kind pieces of fine art and collectible design sourced from recent travels around the world."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378694]

Among the collection are solid bronze sculptures by Lorenzo Quinn, alongside a curated crystalware collection and pieces sourced from international design fairs.

Park Residences sits opposite Cammeray Golf Club, Cammeray Croquet Club and Grand Slam Tennis Cammeray, around 300 metres from Neutral Bay Village and its established collection of restaurants, cafés and retail.

Brown said the combination of a whole-floor floorplan, northern aspect and proximity to Neutral Bay was becoming increasingly difficult to find on the Lower North Shore.

"Completed whole-floor penthouses with a sun-drenched north-facing aspect and sweeping Middle Harbour views are exceptionally rare," Brown said.

"Add a quiet position opposite golf, croquet and tennis facilities, a level walk to Neutral Bay Village and only minutes to the CBD, and you have a lifestyle that's incredibly difficult to replicate.

"This is a home that offers the privacy and generosity of a luxury residence together with the convenience of one of Sydney's best-connected harbourside locations."

The penthouse will be exclusively marketed by SRM Residential.

Abadeen unveils signature penthouse at Park Residences in Cremorne

New Brisbane developer Dalcott has unveiled Marrone, the first of three residential projects it is planning in and around Browning Street in South Brisbane.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/marrone-south-brisbane-39-browning-street-south-brisbane-qld-4101">Marrone</a> will comprise 97 predominantly two- and three-bedroom apartments, with larger residences aimed squarely at the owner-occupier market.

The project will sit in a quiet pocket of South Brisbane between South Bank and West End, close to the restaurants, cultural attractions and riverfront amenity that have driven the suburb's continued transformation.

Dalcott is targeting buyers looking for more space and amenity than has traditionally been offered in the inner-city apartment market, particularly downsizers and professionals wanting to remain close to the city.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149951 project_image_fid=377072]

Resident facilities will be concentrated around an extensive rooftop amenity offering, including a swimming pool, spa, infrared sauna, warm and cold magnesium plunge pools, private lounge, dining room and outdoor entertaining areas.

Dalcott Managing Director Lachlan Cottee said South Brisbane's combination of lifestyle, connectivity and established character had been central to the approach to Marrone.

“South Brisbane offers a combination of lifestyle, connectivity and character that’s difficult to replicate elsewhere in Brisbane,” Cottee said.

“Our focus has been on creating homes that feel connected to that environment while providing the level of design, functionality and quality that today's owner-occupiers expect.”

The residences will feature an expressive material palette. Italian Calacatta Viola marble, known for its deep burgundy veining, will be paired with aged brass tapware, Chestnut engineered timber flooring and Tuscan Oak joinery.

<img alt="Marrone" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="b8d833da-3b30-496a-ae30-07bdff371b50" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%2010.52.35%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=P6DAgOfaQzIXljKKK5j3e5NhWtrHIu9G" />

Bathrooms will feature Nara Japanese ceramics and glass bricks, while clay, walnut and brass lighting will be used throughout the apartments.

Dalcott has appointed Realm Projects, led by Managing Director Shane Foley, to handle sales and marketing following previous sold-out collaborations between the groups.

Foley said the Brisbane apartment buyer had become increasingly focused on the quality of the home itself rather than simply securing an inner-city address.

“We expect to see strong demand from buyers who still want all the advantages of inner-city living but aren’t prepared to compromise on the quality of their home,” Foley said.

“Many will be downsizers looking to leave behind the maintenance of a traditional family home without giving up the space they enjoy, while others are likely to be professionals wanting a residence that reflects the way they live today.”

“Marrone responds directly to that demand, with generous floorplans, exceptional resident amenity and a location that places some of Brisbane’s best dining, entertainment and cultural attractions within walking distance.”

<img alt="Marrone" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="61f7b22f-899e-4c0f-940a-7d3ab1bfb93a" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%2010.52.44%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=PvN1JYxBgUpyCB7efKo52WGdSDs9nmim" />

Marrone will be the first project delivered as part of Dalcott's broader investment in the precinct.

It will be followed by La Terra, a boutique project comprising penthouse-style, single-level apartments on a northeast corner site with extensive resident amenity and city views.

Cottee said Marrone represented the first stage of the group's longer-term plans for the area.

Dalcott was established in 2025 by Lachlan Cottee and Ben Dalgliesh, combining development and construction capability under an integrated model and focusing on architecturally considered residential projects.

Marrone will initially be offered through a pre-release registration campaign ahead of its broader public launch.

Dalcott targets owner-occupiers with South Brisbane debut Marrone

Parnell Developments is the latest to seek significant uplift through the NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority on a Strathfield site previously approved for a much smaller apartment development.

Parnell has sought approval for a 32-storey mixed use tower across&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/7-lyons-street-strathfield-nsw-2135">3-7 Lyons Street and 18 Parnell Street</a>, a&nbsp;1,857 sqm site around 400 metres from Strathfield Station. The building would yield 160 apartments, 15 per cent of which will be dedicated affordable as per the government mandate for buildings seeking additional uplift.

Approved previously was a nine-storey building back in 2022 with just over 30 apartments. That approval came prior to the project being&nbsp;progressively reconsidered as planning policy shifted toward greater density around transport hubs.

<img alt="Strathfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c5af5281-a643-4eb2-b8c4-0081b59c04c7" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%209.16.48%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=37bd3mI7rHNpThOV_75VO8xsGFwWOi1u" />

Turner has designed the latest building that would replace&nbsp;existing detached homes across the four lots.

The apartment mix comprises 22 one-bedroom apartments, 107 two-bedroom and two-bedroom-plus configurations, and 31 apartments with three or more bedrooms. The scheme also includes 203 car spaces across six basement levels and 58 bicycle spaces.

The proposal has been designed around a three-storey podium addressing Lyons Street, with the tower rising above and stepping toward its upper levels.

Turner said the podium was deliberately scaled to respond to the existing street, while the taller element has been designed as part of the emerging skyline anticipated around Strathfield Town Centre and the wider Homebush transport-oriented development precinct.

The Lyons Street frontage would have a more active, pedestrian-focused character, incorporating the commercial tenancy, landscaping and a brick-framed podium with an awning.

<img alt="Strathfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="14b20874-b8c3-4ac7-bc03-92be9a69fb78" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%209.17.48%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=av.9TxtqIRTC6v3PkSuu1rL9rreWoe2h" />

Parnell Street, which faces the railway corridor, has been given a different architectural treatment, with double-height breeze blocks, landscaping and communal areas used to soften the interface with the rail infrastructure.

The tower itself uses curved and recessed facade elements, with wave-like indentations across the northern elevation breaking the building into three vertical forms.

A palette of grey concrete, brick and breeze blocks is complemented by clay and terracotta accents, while the upper tower adopts a lighter expression through articulated slab edges, vertical fins and recessed glazing.

Residents would have access to 467 sqm of communal open space spread across three levels. The ground floor would accommodate the more active resident areas, including barbecue and group gathering spaces and an internal communal room capable of being used for working from home.

A more passive viewing deck is proposed at level three, overlooking the ground-level landscaping and neighbouring tennis courts, while a rooftop "sunset deck" at level 30 would provide another social and relaxation space.

<img alt="Parnell" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c3dce401-a80f-4682-8471-4caa01180880" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%209.17.34%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=Xyo8JVqbOhSJXNy6Ih.1cHL.O6i0bGR." />

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Strathfield has been earmarked for substantial change through the Strathfield Town Centre planning work and the nearby Homebush TOD precinct.

Turner's report says the project has been designed to act as a transition between the existing low and mid-rise development surrounding the site and the taller built form expected to emerge across the town centre.

The proposal is being assessed as State Significant Development under the HDA pathway, alongside the concurrent request to amend the Burwood Local Environmental Plan.

First look: New apartment tower pitched for Strathfield Town Centre precinct

An $18 million penthouse has hit the market in Main Beach as construction tops out on La Mer, the $155 million apartment development rising just metres from the beach.

Spanning around 600 sqm across the top two levels of the 29-storey tower on Main Beach Parade, the four-bedroom penthouse is one of the latest eight-figure residences to test the upper end of the Gold Coast apartment market.

Its launch comes amid continued activity at the very top of the market, following the $30 million off-the-plan sale of a Burleigh Heads penthouse earlier this year, which surpassed the Gold Coast's previous $24 million apartment record set in 2023.

The <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/la-mer-main-beach-3580-main-beach-parade-main-beach-qld-4217">La Mer penthouse</a> has been designed as a private residence in the sky, with 360-degree views spanning the ocean, Broadwater, hinterland and Gold Coast skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378731]

All four bedrooms have ensuites, while the ocean-facing master retreat occupies around half of the upper level and includes its own lounge, private balcony, two walk-in wardrobes and an oversized ensuite with a freestanding stone bath positioned to take in the views.

The residence also features a kitchen designed to accommodate a private chef, a 3.6-metre island bench, expansive butler's pantry, wine cellar and integrated bar.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378732]

A rooftop pool and substantial outdoor entertaining area with its own kitchen sit above the residence, while a grand staircase connects the two internal levels. The penthouse also has its own express lift.

OTP Group Director James Elliott, who is marketing La Mer, said the penthouse was expected to appeal to high-net-worth buyers seeking either a permanent Main Beach residence or Gold Coast holiday home.

“The La Mer penthouse represents exceptional value, considering its quality design, size, privacy and location, not to mention the 360-degree views capturing the beach and Gold Coast Broadwater,” Elliott said.

“We’re anticipating interest from high-net-worth individuals and couples seeking a residence or holiday home in the sought-after village enclave of Main Beach, taking advantage of the unprecedented growth underway in the area and neighbouring The Spit.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378736]

La Mer is being developed by developer-builder ODUS and Nazero, in partnership with funder Metrics Credit Partners.

ODUS Director Byron Sakha said topping out the tower had provided the opportunity to release the project's most significant residence.

“We’ve worked with internationally-recognised studio Sici Design on the penthouse interiors, with a focus on ensuring it isn’t luxury for luxury’s sake. Every element has been thoughtfully designed to enhance quality of life for those who call it home,” Sakha said.

“The views are the hero of virtually every space, but we’ve given equal attention to the fittings and finishes, so every detail exudes elegance and refinement.”

Sici Design Founder and Director Maria Papadopoulos said the extensive views became an integral part of the interior design rather than simply something the residence was designed around.

“The views weren't something we designed around, they became part of the design itself, with the true luxury of La Mer in its feeling of peace, calm and wellbeing,” Papadopoulos said.

“Luxury isn't defined by how something looks, but how it makes you feel, and we believe a luxurious home should be beautiful to live in, not stressful to maintain.”

The interiors combine Austral Dream Dolomite natural stone and travertine with timber flooring and a restrained coastal palette.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378734]

Designed by Plus Studio, La Mer is one of the more boutique additions to the rapidly changing Main Beach apartment market.

The tower comprises just 24 full-floor, three-bedroom plus multipurpose room apartments below the two-level penthouse, giving the project a considerably lower density than many of the larger towers being developed across the Gold Coast.

Residents will have access to a pool and spa, gym, sauna, barbecue facilities, private sun lounges, yoga lawn and outdoor beach shower.

The penthouse has been released as part of the final collection of residences at La Mer, with remaining apartments priced from $4.3 million.

Construction is expected to complete later this year, with a fully furnished display apartment now open on level four.

ODUS releases $18 million penthouse crowning La Mer Main Beach

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/far-east-consortium">Far East Consortium</a> is preparing to commence construction on <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/640-bourke-street-melbourne-640-bourke-street-melbourne-vic-3000">640 Bourke Street</a> this October, marking the next milestone for the Melbourne CBD development and its higher-end Eliza Collection.

Spanning levels 44 to 68 of the 68-storey <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a>-designed tower, the Eliza Collection has been conceived as a lower-density offering within the broader development, with only five apartments on each floor, dedicated lift access and a collection of resident spaces reserved exclusively for Eliza Collection residents.

The Eliza Collection forms part of Far East Consortium's broader move toward larger-format residences at 640 Bourke Street, where the number of apartments was reduced from earlier plans as apartment sizes increased.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=365685]

"What it's meant for 640 Bourke is we've actually reduced the number of apartments. We've increased the overall size of the apartments. We don't have any studios in here, and what that does for a project is it elevates it," Far East Consortium Director of Sales and Marketing Lauren Sheldon said.

Rothelowman Associate Jun Chang said the design process provided an opportunity to create more generous floorplans.

"We were given the opportunity to be more generous. The apartments became bigger and squarer than any other apartments which had been designed in the CBD before that."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=368869]

That thinking carries through to the Eliza Collection, where the residences have been designed around the space and functionality associated with a larger home, but positioned high above the centre of Melbourne.

Kitchens are equipped with Gaggenau appliances, a butler's pantry, temperature-controlled wine cabinet and sculptural pendant lighting, while engineered timber flooring, stone and porcelain finishes and custom cabinetry feature throughout the broader interiors.

Privacy and security are another point of distinction. Eliza Collection residents have dedicated lift access, while 640 Bourke Street will provide concierge services and secure resident parking. Short-stay accommodation, including Airbnb, will not be permitted within the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=365689]

Eliza Collection residents will also have exclusive access to selected amenity spaces across levels one and three of the restored Eliza Tinsley building. These include the Salon with grand piano, an art therapy room, private dining rooms and treatment rooms.

They sit within more than 3,000 sqm of amenity planned across 640 Bourke Street, alongside facilities including a pool, gym, whisky lounge and further social and wellness spaces.

The Eliza Tinsley building itself is central to the wider project's identity. Rather than treating the existing Eliza Tinsley façade as a separate element, Rothelowman used it as a starting point for the architecture of the new tower, with the historic building to accommodate the project's gallery and lobby.

"It's a significant asset and wants to be celebrated and experienced by all residents every single time they go in and out of the building," Rothelowman Principal Stuart Marsland said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=368872]

The tower will rise behind the retained heritage building at 640 Bourke Street, placing residents within walking distance of Southern Cross Station, Flagstaff Gardens, Queen Victoria Market and the Docklands waterfront.

With construction scheduled to begin in October, Far East Consortium has established an onsite display gallery at 640 Bourke Street, including fully built apartments that allow the project's layouts, materials and finishes to be inspected at full scale.

A fully built Eliza Collection apartment is also available to view at the display suite by appointment ahead of the planned October construction commencement.

Eligible purchasers who buy before construction commences can secure the full available off-the-plan stamp duty savings, subject to eligibility and applicable conditions.

Far East Consortium brings Eliza Collection to 640 Bourke Street ahead of October construction start

Kangaroo Point

A&nbsp;prime corner site in the burgeoning Kangaroo Point area, 58 - 62 Leopard Street is set to become the latest residential offering by renowned developers Aria.

Currently home to Brisbane&rsquo;s iconic event theming and hire company, The Prop House, the group have lodged a development application for the landmark site, adjacent to the Cross River rail and the Olympic stadium.

Soaring 20-levels into the sky, the project will be Aria&rsquo;s latest in a long line of successful collaborations with Rothelowman and RPS Landscape Architects.

<a href="/new-apartments/canopy-house-by-aria-58-62-leopard-street-kangaroo-point"><img alt="" height="1799" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/ariaproperty_group.jpeg" width="1200" /></a> 
Render of the proposed development in Kangaroo Point. Image sourced.&nbsp;

Comprising 98 residences, the project will deliver a mix of two, three and four-bedroom apartments, with vistas of both stretches of the Brisbane River.

Residences will feature balconies that integrate with adjoining internal living areas, through sliding stackable doors on recessed runners, to create large semi-outdoor living areas, as well as high ceilings and permeable facades that allow natural light to penetrate into the building.

Operable windows in every home will help to facilitate cross-flow ventilation, while also providing further opportunity for residents to enjoy the views of their sought-after location.

&ldquo;Our vision was to create a world class development with an enviable architectural form that will assist in the revitalisation of the Kangaroo Point South and Woolloongabba Centre Neighbourhood Plan Areas,&rdquo; said Aria in their development application.

In order to take advantage of the site&rsquo;s significant corner location as both the western gateway into the neighbourhood plan area and an intersection of two key roads, the building has been designed to play the role of a &lsquo;landscaped architectural gateway&rsquo; form, which emphasises the corner setting and arrival into the neighbourhood plan.

&ldquo;We wanted to provide a highly quality and usable public open space that will enhance the pedestrian experience commute to the Gabba, the Cross River rail and the Woolloongabba Bus Station (WBS) precinct.&rdquo;

Over 830 sqm of landscaping is proposed across the site by RPS, including a significant landscape offering within the ground level public open space. In addition to this, there will also be a significant vertical column of mature trees that rise up the full gateway corner of the building.

<a href="/new-apartments/canopy-house-by-aria-58-62-leopard-street-kangaroo-point"><img alt="" height="1056" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/aria_2.jpeg" width="1200" /></a> 
Render of the proposed landscaped greenery embodying the building and communal areas. Image sourced.

This overtly green gesture identifies the precinct as a sub-tropical and sustainable area, acting as a catalyst for future developments in the local area.

The expansive ground floor parkland space will serve as an extension of the footpath creating a significant piece of public realm and the highly articulated built form allows every apartment to engage the outdoors.

The ground level incorporates a range of features, including a large forecourt for gathering and meeting, multiple chill out spaces for relaxation, recreation and refuge, an exceptional standard of urban design including water features, benches and seating, and a prominent feature tree on the corner of the intersection.

The entire 800 sqm rooftop is devoted to communal open space where&nbsp;residents will benefit from a large furnished resident lounge space, outdoor dining areas and barbecue facilities, a pool, spa and terrace lounge area, and unrestricted views of the South Brisbane and the D&rsquo;aguilar Ranges, the Gabba, End, South Bank, Mount Cootha and CBD.

Comprising 98-apartments, the project will deliver a mix of two, three and four-bedroom apartments, with vistas of both stretches of the Brisbane River.

Aria Property Group lodge plans for Kangaroo Point apartment development

The Brisbane property developer Kenlynn is heading back to Kangaroo Point for its next apartment project.

Following its successful development of Thornclyffe Residences, the redevelopment of the 1880s heritage-listed Thornclyffe House,&nbsp;Kenlynn, has lodged plans for a 15-level project dubbed 130Lambert, just up the road&nbsp;112-130 Lambert Street.

They secured both of the sites late last year for a combined $5.3 million, with the amalgamated sites totaling over 1,200 sqm.

Local architecture firm Ellivo Architects has drawn up the plans for the two and three-bedroom project which will feature contemporary sub-tropical design, incorporating a sequence of landscape components such as&nbsp;streetscape and entries, terrace gardens, and communal rooftop garden.

<img alt="" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" height="826" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-04_at_11.35.02_am.png" width="1594" />

"The overall design aims for an environmental and socially sustainable landscape and an integrated landscape experience with the building architecture and function, activating the site and creating a vibrant precinct and place to live," Kenlynn note on their website.

<a href="/new-apartments/130lambert">130Lambert</a> is set to launch to the market in the second half of 2024.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=145081 project_image_fid=281209]

Kenlynn's development manager, Andrew Travers, said the design is informed by impacts of COVID on how people live and work and attracting residents back to inner city living in apartments which offer generous space, good natural light/ventilation, plus work from home spaces.

"The development includes significant communal recreation and fitness spaces, edible garden, plus meeting/multi-purpose spaces," Travers added.

<img alt="" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" height="840" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-04-04_at_11.34.54_am.png" width="1638" />

"We have also incorporated dedicated EOT facility for more secure and purpose designed bike storage (noting future KP green bridge) for the increased use of active transport options in the city. We are also looking to incorporate dedicated parcel lockers (including some refrigerated) for online deliveries.

"Further into detailed design we will be looking to incorporate Solar Array for communal power, plus provision for EV charging."

Kenlynn has previously developed townhouse projects in New Farm and Hendra. Late last year they sold the Hendra Bowls Club for&nbsp;$3,575,000.

Kenlynn developed an eight-level, 20-apartment block around Thornclyffe House, a Victorian-style Queenslander well over a century old.

They secured both of the sites late last year for a combined $5.3 million, with the amalgamated sites totalling over 1,200 sqm

Kenlynn set for another boutique Kangaroo Point apartment development

The national property developer, Pellicano, are set to bring something different to the affluent Brisbane riverside suburb, Kangaroo Point.

They're seeking to create Story House, a development of 86 apartments,&nbsp;on the more affordable end of the scale than what Kangaroo Point is generally&nbsp;used to.

There will be a mix of studio, one, and two-bedroom apartments across the nine-level building designed by DBI Architecture, which will be crowned with an extensive rooftop amenity level.

<a href="/new-apartments/kangaroo-point-qld-4169">To keep up to date with the development and its launch, enquire here</a>

That will home a lap pool with a pool deck and spa, a yoga lawn, a dining and barbecue area, and an outdoor gym. 85 per cent of the building's roof top&nbsp;is disposed as recreation areas and gardens, landscape architect RPG Group advise on the development submission.

They described Story House as "mid-century modern meets sophistication in the heart of Woolloongabba and wider area of Kangaroo Point."

<a href="/new-apartments/kangaroo-point-qld-4169">To keep up to date with the development and its launch, enquire here</a>

The Pellicano team identified the area as having considerable growth potential well before the Olympics was announced for Brisbane in 2032. They bought two adjoining 708 sqm Duke Street sites for a combined 1,418 sqm block in 2019 for around $2,875,000 combined.

The site is currently vacant, with the existing character house at 21 Duke Street having been relocated, and the house at 65 Linton Street&nbsp;demolished.

A stone's throw from The Gabba but in the Kangaroo Point postcode, Story House was designed by DBI who said the building and internal use is broken down to create a base form that scales to the street; a three-story expression that is typical in scale to the historical locality.

"The building offers balconies expressed to offer an overt sub- tropical, outdoor living experience," DBI advised.

"The balconies become a vibrant &amp; playful series of sculptural forms that humanize the suburban building to the street.

"The articulated facade allows for desired breeze flow through all habitable spaces."

Story House was described as "mid-century modern meets sophistication in the heart of Woolloongabba and wider area of Kangaroo Point."



First look: Pellicano set for Story House, Kangaroo Point apartment development

The Brisbane-based Pikos Group are set to launch its next apartment project, a striking collection of three towers in the affluent suburb of Kangaroo Point.

The first release of Lambert Street Apartments, to be developed on one of the last remaining vacant sites overlooking the Brisbane River, will see 75 apartments up for grabs, with strong enquiry already fielded by the Pedro Pikos-led developer.

There will be three towers as part of the Lambert Street Apartments, designed by Conrad Gargett Architect and oriented to look across the river to New Farm.

<a href="/new-apartments/gaia-kangaroo-point-108-lambert-street-kangaroo-point">To keep up to date with the development and its launch, enquire here</a>

&ldquo;Lambert Street represents the final chance for a new generation of luxury to rise in Kangaroo Point &ndash; there are no other developable sites left in the area,&rdquo; Pikos said.

<img alt="" height="856" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/stage_1_pikos_lambert_st.jpg" width="604" /> 
The first of the three towers

&ldquo;Interstate developers have been desperately trying to get their hands on developable land in Kangaroo Point, but they&rsquo;re a little too late to the party.

&ldquo;We have always had a huge affinity for Kangaroo Point and this project will present a vanishingly rare opportunity to secure a riverfront residence drenched in the trademark Pikos luxury-touch.&rdquo;

The project is set to rise opposite the highly successful&nbsp;Argyle New Farm, which has underpinned the strength of the central Brisbane market, securing 90 per cent&nbsp;of its sales for $7.75 million, and a penthouse sale at $15.4 million.

One of the later release towers

&ldquo;Our appartments will enter the market at a tenth of the price of the Argyle, without compromising on quality or vistas, which is remarkable value for buyers seeking a more affordable entry to riverside living,&rdquo; Pikos added.

Kangaroo Point is one of Brisbane&#39;s most sought-after and tightly held markets for houses and apartments, with little high-rise stock in the pipeline or recently completed.

<a href="/new-apartments/gaia-kangaroo-point-108-lambert-street-kangaroo-point">To keep up to date with the development and its launch, enquire here</a>

Gap Development Sales Director Grant Plummer, who is handling the marketing, said there&#39;s been incredible levels of demand already.

Another render of one of the future releases

&ldquo;Kangaroo Point is the location with it all &ndash; it&rsquo;s got proximity, panoramas, and a captivating charm which has cemented it as the pinnacle of city living for the luxury owner occupier market,&rdquo;&nbsp;Plummer said.

&ldquo;The diminishing opportunity for new product in such a coveted location has resulted in an incredible level of demand which we are excited to satiate with our spectacular Lambert Street collection.&rdquo;

Lambert Street is being modelled with the same finishes as Pikos&#39;s&nbsp;Skye apartments, located on just across the bend.

Pikos Group set to launch La Storia, first stage of Lambert Street Apartments in Kangaroo Point

Locals are snapping up apartments in Gardner Vaughan Group’s latest Brisbane apartments, Monterey at Kangaroo Point.

The development, which looks out to Brisbane CBD’s skyline and beyond to the mountains, has seen increased interest from locals searching for properties in a premium location.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7145 project_image_fid=153948]

With its beautiful tree-lined streets, Mowbray Park, Raymond Park and the Kangaroo Point Cliffs all on your doorstep, the home is set amongst an ideal backdrop.

A local buyer who purchased the four-bedroom, three-bathroom penthouse at Monterey said the home ticks all the boxes.

<blockquote>
“Our family has resided in Kangaroo Point for the past few years, and we love the location!”
</blockquote>

“Monterey offers amazing amenities with the rooftop and pool and gym on level one. The Northern aspect, boutique building and high-quality construction with Cross Laminated Timber [CLT] made it an easy decision to purchase the penthouse”, they said.

The use of radiata pine in the CLT method is an innovative wood product developed in Europe over 30 years ago, according to the developers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7145 project_image_fid=153957]

The choice of CLT for Monterey was a carefully considered decision, providing benefits to the construction process and its residents, including high strength-to-weight ratio, low embodied energy and reduced stress impacts.

The renewable resource also sequesters carbon and enhances thermal properties.

“As long-term residents in Kangaroo Point, there is a real shortage of modern, luxury boutique buildings available”, said another local buyer, who purchased a four-bedroom, three-bathroom residence on the sixth floor.

<blockquote>
“The developer has a great track record and we have confidence in them pioneering this new CLT design,” they added.
</blockquote>

Designed by architects Hayes Anderson Lynch, the riverside development features full-height glass, sustainable principles and is the first timber multi-story construction in Kangaroo Point.

Derived from a response to the subtropical climate, the form of the building considers the orientation of the sun, prevailing summer breezes and winter winds.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7145 project_image_fid=153949]

“Recessed, shaded balconies are skirted by brass perimeter screens that provide both sun shading and added privacy. At the ground floor, the driveway and services are tucked to one side, giving way to the light filled, glazed lobby”, said Hayes Anderson Lynch’s Elizabeth Anderson.

The angles and ribboning of the balustrade design maximises views and delivers a residence that embodies the synergy between design, sustainability and natural beauty.

“Monterey not only offers the North-East aspect and river views, but it affords the privacy and security with fewer neighbours in the building”, a third local buyer said, who is downsizing from their sub-penthouse in Macleay Towers.

Monterey truly encompasses Brisbane’s vision for “buildings that breathe.”

Locals snap up Gardner Vaughan Group’s Monterey apartments in Kangaroo Point

Brisbane&#39;s ARIA Property Group have received sign off from the Brisbane City Council to build their Kangaroo Point apartment development&nbsp;which they now dubbed Riviera.

Aria, led by their founder and managing director Tim Forrester, bought three adjoining sites between&nbsp;470 and 480 Main Street&nbsp;in late 2018 and submitted plans to build on the amalgamated 2581 sqm in mid-2019.

There will be 124&nbsp;apartments across the 12 level development, not including the&nbsp;two levels of basement parking.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93966]

Entry will be through a lush landscaped garden complete with a reflection pond and butterfly walk. On the ground level will be a&nbsp;residential lobby where there&#39;s set to be a cinema and a residents cellar and a terrace with a barbecue.

The rooftop will feature a circular rooftop pool, a green roof covering a wine bar, a number of lawns, a meadow, wellness centre, pool deck and outdoor kitchen.

Architecture firm Bates Smart have designed the building.

They say on their website that their&nbsp;vision was&nbsp;to create a distinctive architecture that captures the uniqueness of the site&rsquo;s clifftop location while maximising river and city views.

<a href="/buildings/riviere-apartments-470-main-street-kangaroo-point"><img alt="" height="672" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/riviera_3.jpg" width="1200" /></a>

&quot;The form draws inspiration from the dramatic natural land form of the Kangaroo Point Cliffs and its angular faceted forms.

&quot;The design responds to the sub-tropical climate and aims to connect internal spaces to the external environment in line with the Buildings that Breathe strategy adopted by Brisbane City Council.

&quot;Landscaping is a key component of the proposal, forming a key feature of the arrival experience and extending through all levels of the building and culminating in a generous communal rooftop.&quot;

The four timber houses that were on the combined site, as well as the two storey office area at the front, are set for demolition.

Condev Construction forecast the works will be complete by August 2022, with the main structure construction beginning in June this year.

There will be 124 apartments across the 12 level development, which doesn't include two levels of basement parking.

Pikos Group secure approval for $200 million Kangaroo Point project Skye Apartments

Brisbane-based developer Pikos Group is planning a $200 million luxury apartment project on a Kangaroo Point site&nbsp;that will feature a floating 1,000 sqm Sky Deck.&nbsp;With a design inspired by the famous Marina Bay Sands development in Singapore, Pikos will deliver a boutique collection of 68 luxury apartments over three towers, topped by a&nbsp;rooftop bar and restaurant to accompany a private residents&rsquo; pool deck overlooking the city skyline.

The 2,330 sqm landmark site located atop the Kangaroo Point cliffs on the corner of River Terrace and Main Street, was acquired by Pikos Group from international hotels group Banyan Tree. The Singapore-based company, which paid $16.8 million for the site in 2014, had planned a major apartment project on the holding. Pikos has amended Banyan Tree&rsquo;s original single-tower design with plans for three boutique towers of up to 13 storeys on the site.

Designed by Brisbane architectural firm Arkhefield, the project will deliver&nbsp;apartments that span the entire east-west width of each tower, providing uninterrupted views of the Botanic Gardens, the Brisbane River, Storey Bridge and the city, as well as views across to the eastern arm of the Brisbane River to New Farm and beyond. Each building will have two apartments per floor with balconies along the River Terrace frontage.

Plans for the 8 River Terrace site a floating Sky Deck spanning two of the buildings which will feature a world-class restaurant&nbsp;and bar facility that will be open to the general public.&nbsp;

The apartment offering will include six penthouses, each with their own private rooftop terraces. Pikos says the project is aimed at the booming owner-occupier market seeking inner-city living. Ground floor amenities will include a fully equipped gym and a private, secure sub-tropical garden, while a separate caf&eacute; will service both residents and the general public.

The private company has a workbook in Southeast Queensland of $1.3 billion, with a large portfolio in Kangaroo Point which is it believes is shaping up as Brisbane&rsquo;s hotspot. Recent commercial developments include the South Brisbane Health and Wellness centre at Mater Hill. Pikos has lodged a development application with the Brisbane City Council for the 8 River Terrace project and the company plans to begin construction in 2021 once approvals are granted.
