Melbourne developer Spacious Group has completed Voyage Altona, one of the closest new apartment developments to Altona Beach.

Off the plan purchasers have started moving into the 49-apartment project on Pier Street, with the remaining move-in-ready one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments starting from just over $500,000.

Display apartments have now been fitted out, allowing prospective buyers to inspect the completed residences by appointment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112195 project_image_fid=372638]

The completed apartments feature open-plan living and dining areas which extend onto private balconies and terraces, while full-height glazing maximises natural light throughout the interiors.&nbsp;

Hybrid timber-look flooring, stone benchtops, Miele appliances, porcelain-tiled bathrooms and generous storage feature throughout the building which also features landscaped communal areas, expansive shared terraces, lift access and secure on-grade parking.

Drawing inspiration from its bayside setting, Voyage adopts a restrained palette of warm neutral tones and textured finishes. Many of the apartments take advantage of views across Port Phillip Bay, while the indoor-outdoor living spaces have been designed to make the most of the coastal outlook.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112195 project_image_fid=3286]

Voyage was developed to address what Spacious Group identified as an undersupply of higher-quality apartment product in Altona, with a focus on owner-occupiers looking to remain within the bayside community.

"Voyage responds to very strong local buyer demand for quality, owner-occupier-focused product," says Barry Plant Projects Director Jarrod Farey, who has handled sales since the project's launch.

"The project delivers an elevated lifestyle proposition, with its design and quality of finish far exceeding anything previously produced in the area, as well as its proximity to Pier Street Village and the beach."

The majority of purchasers have been local downsizers and owner-occupiers looking to stay within the Altona community but who previously had limited opportunities to buy a brand-new apartment.

Homecorp has secured approval for a $360 million apartment development at Budds Beach, paving the way for one of the Gold Coast's most amenity-rich residential projects to launch later this year.

Gold Coast City Council has approved Lýon Residences, a 32-level tower that will deliver 178 two and three-bedroom apartments across a prominent corner site at 8-10 Acacia Avenue and 25-27 Oak Avenue.

The approval comes as developers continue to invest in premium lifestyle-driven apartment projects on the Gold Coast, where owner occupiers are increasingly prioritising amenity as much as apartment size and location.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/l-on-residences-25-27-oak-avenue-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">Lýon Residences</a> has been designed around a resort-style wellness offering, headlined by a Moroccan-inspired spa precinct featuring treatment rooms, a Nordic sauna and steam room, hot and cold plunge pools, a soaking pool and a residents-only juice bar.

The rooftop will include a heated infinity pool and spa, residents' lounge with private kitchen and bar, gymnasium, yoga and Pilates studio, outdoor entertaining areas and barbecue facilities overlooking the Surfers Paradise skyline.

<img alt="Lyon" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2d3e29af-8793-486e-a684-52cef862241f" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-07-15%20at%204.32.26%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=ayG2zpLf3SS6Zy8XmKDcQods4kVWb0gm" />

Homecorp Founder and CEO Ron Bakir said Budds Beach provided the ideal location for the company's latest luxury apartment project.

"Budds Beach represents one of the most unique and sought-after pockets of the Gold Coast, and Lýon Residences has been designed to reflect that sense of rarity and refinement," Bakir said.

The project arrives as wellness continues to become a defining feature of new residential developments both in Australia and internationally.

The latest Global Wellness Institute figures show wellness real estate remains the fastest-growing segment of the global wellness economy and is forecast to exceed $1.8 trillion by 2030. Australia continues to rank among the world's 15 largest wellness real estate markets, with developers increasingly integrating health, recreation and community facilities into apartment projects.

Queensland is also experiencing strong population growth, with the Gold Coast continuing to outperform many other Australian cities as demand for new housing remains elevated ahead of the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Bakir said the project had been designed to respond to that shift in buyer expectations.

"Strong population growth and sustained demand across the Gold Coast continue to highlight the need for well-designed new housing supply. Lýon Residences responds directly to this demand while setting a new benchmark for residential living," he said.

Each apartment has been designed to maximise views across the coastline, the Nerang River and the Gold Coast hinterland.

Located just minutes from Surfers Paradise beach and the Broadwater, the development also offers easy access to the light rail network, Broadbeach and Burleigh Heads.

Early site works are underway, with construction expected to commence later this year.

New apartment developments with uninterrupted, north-facing views over Perth's Swan River are exceptionally rare.

Recognising just how limited those opportunities are, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/edge-visionary-living">Edge Visionary Living</a>, one of Perth's most respected builder-developers, targeted <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/applecross-wa-6153">Applecross</a>, assembling an unrepeatable 6,342 sqm riverfront site on the corner of Moreau Mews and Canning Beach Road to create one of Perth's only new north-facing apartment developments directly overlooking the Swan River.

Today, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/riviere-residences-applecross-59-canning-beach-road-applecross-wa-6153">Rivière Residences</a> offers buyers a unique opportunity to choose between completed residences ready to move into now and off-the-plan homes in the final stage, Rivière West.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28384 project_image_fid=3823]

Across the completed East and Central buildings, residents are already enjoying the development's luxury amenity, while two of the precinct's hospitality venues are now open.

The completed component of the development gives buyers the advantage of experiencing the finished product firsthand, including its uninterrupted river views, while still having the opportunity to secure a residence in the final stage.

"People are wowed by the view and the quality of the apartments,"&nbsp;Edge Visionary Living Sales Executive, Holly McSweeney, says.

"They're looking for the convenience of lock-and-leave living, but they're not looking to downsize on quality."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28384 project_image_fid=3826]

The rarity of the development hasn't been lost on prospective buyers, McSweeney says.

For McSweeney, it all comes back to a location that is becoming increasingly difficult to replicate.

"Location, location, location," she says. "We are nestled right on the front of the Swan River. You can never get built out, so wherever you are in Rivière Residences, you've got views of the river forever."

The unique waterfront position has resonated particularly strongly with local downsizers. McSweeney says many buyers are long-time Applecross residents looking to transition from large family homes into a luxury apartment without sacrificing space, quality or the lifestyle they've enjoyed for decades.

<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/N_FowNW0wu8?si=vb25XFq1wZ-iufAW" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

A major focus for Edge in recent years has been resident amenity. Across its apartment portfolio, from beachfront developments in Scarborough to luxury towers in South Perth, the developer has increasingly invested in the spaces beyond the apartment itself.

The strategy has largely been shaped by downsizer demand. Many buyers are moving from large family homes with swimming pools and established gardens. While they're looking to leave the maintenance behind, they don't want to compromise on lifestyle.

At Rivière, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/hillam-architects">Hillam Architects</a> designed the resident facilities as an extension of each apartment. A 25-metre heated swimming pool takes advantage of the north-facing river outlook, complemented by a large gym, sauna and steam rooms, private dining spaces, residents' lounges, a cinema, games room, and dedicated wine and whisky rooms.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28384 project_image_fid=372542]

The waterfront location has also proved to be a major drawcard. Residents are within walking distance of the Raffles Hotel, South of Perth Yacht Club, the Heathcote Cultural Precinct and the cafés, restaurants and boutiques along Ardross Street.

Beyond the location and amenity, McSweeney says many buyers take confidence from Edge's fully integrated development model.

Having delivered apartments across Perth for decades, Edge now designs, develops and constructs its projects in-house, giving the company greater control over quality, delivery and the finished product.

"What I love is when people walk through their apartment for the first time and say, 'This is better than what we imagined,'" McSweeney says. "We hear that all the time."

Completed apartments in the East and Central buildings are now available to inspect by appointment, while Rivière West, the final stage of the precinct, is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2027.

North-facing Swan River views drive demand at Rivière Residences in Applecross

Nearly 60 per cent of apartments at McNab Group's $220 million The Tannery development in Brisbane's West End have sold ahead of the project's public launch, including a suburb-record $2.57 million sale for a two-bedroom apartment.

The early sales campaign has secured buyers for 50 of the project's 87 apartments, highlighting continued demand for larger owner-occupier apartments that combine generous floorplans with premium lifestyle amenities in one of Brisbane's most tightly held inner-city suburbs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143337 project_image_fid=374768]

McNab Group Executive Chairman Michael McNab said selling more than half the project before launch reflected changing buyer expectations.

"Selling more than half the project before public sales open tells us buyers are actively seeking apartments that offer something genuinely different," McNab said.

"Today's buyers are looking beyond four walls. They want homes that genuinely enhance the way they live, with spaces that support health, connection and everyday wellbeing."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143337 project_image_fid=374767]

A key point of difference for the project is the adaptive reuse of the heritage-listed Dixon's Tannery building, which will become The Retreat, a residents-only wellness precinct rather than being redeveloped into additional apartments.

The Retreat will feature a sauna and steam room, hot and cold plunge pools, a commercial-grade gym, Pilates studio, cinema, library, co-working spaces and private dining room. Rooftop amenities will include a swimming pool, landscaped gardens, outdoor entertaining areas and dog-friendly spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143337 project_image_fid=374760]

Designed by Cottee Parker Architects with interiors by Tom Mark Henry and landscape architecture by Aspect Studios, The Tannery comprises 87 two, three and four-bedroom apartments across 11 levels overlooking the Brisbane River.

Cottee Parker principal Dee Passenger said preserving the original tannery building had been central to the project's design.

"The easy option would have been to maximise the site's development potential with additional apartments. Instead, McNab has chosen to preserve the original tannery as a shared wellness retreat, ensuring this important piece of Brisbane's history remains at the heart of the community."

Passenger said sustainability also played a key role in the design, with materials from the original industrial site salvaged and repurposed throughout the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143337 project_image_fid=374761]

Motiv CEO Carly Cottam said buyers had responded strongly to the combination of larger apartments, wellness facilities and the West End lifestyle.

"We are seeing more buyers looking for homes in the sky that provide the space and functionality of a traditional home, while benefiting from the convenience and lifestyle that apartment living brings," Cottam said.

She said purchasers included both owner occupiers and investors, with demand coming from local buyers as well as interstate purchasers.

Coinciding with the public launch, McNab also announced a partnership with Queensland Ballet, whose neighbouring Thomas Dixon Centre shares historical ties with the original Dixon family.

Located on a 4,465 sqm site at 439 Montague Road, The Tannery overlooks the Brisbane River and is around 10 minutes from the CBD.

Construction is underway, with completion expected in the second half of 2027.

Iwan Sunito's vision for a landmark mixed-use precinct in Sydney's Inner West has taken a major step forward, with approval granted for the $1.9 billion Five Dock development first unveiled earlier this year.

The approved scheme by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/one-global-capital">One Global Capital</a> will deliver an 80,500 sqm mixed-use precinct comprising 840 apartments, integrated hotel accommodation, commercial and retail space, alongside publicly accessible open space designed to create a new destination for the growing suburb.

"This is a significant milestone for One Global Capital and for the future of housing delivery in Sydney," Sunito said.

"The Housing Delivery Authority was established to identify major housing projects capable of delivering meaningful supply more efficiently, and we are delighted that Spencer Street has been recognised as one of those projects.”

He said the declaration reflected the rapid progress achieved since acquiring control of the site.

"In less than seven months we have progressed from taking control of the site to securing entry into one of the NSW Government's most important planning pathways. It reflects the experience of our team, the strength of our consultant group led by Urbis, and our long-term commitment to delivering transformational projects that contribute to Sydney's future."

When the project was revealed earlier this year, Sunito described the opportunity as one of the strongest development sites he had worked on.

"I probably hadn't appreciated the uniqueness of the site until more recently when putting together the concept plans," Sunito said.

"The proximity to the water, and the golf course opposite, is unlike any other part of Parramatta Road. We have a unique position and view corridors over the water that makes this one of the best sites I've worked on."

The development has evolved since its initial announcement, with the approved plans increasing the residential component from the originally proposed 750 apartments to 840 homes while retaining the project's focus on creating an integrated neighbourhood rather than a standalone residential development.

The precinct will combine apartments with hotel accommodation, commercial workplaces, retail offerings and public spaces, creating a mixed-use environment intended to serve both residents and the broader Five Dock community. The proposal also continues the collaboration between One Global Capital and internationally recognised architect <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/koichi-takada-architects">Koichi Takada</a>, whose previous work with Sunito includes Infinity, Arc and Skye North Sydney.

Takada previously said the design was driven by a philosophy of integrating nature into the built environment.

"The concept for this development is born from our design approach to naturalising architecture," Takada said.

"The public realm benefits from biophilic design that integrates generous landscaping, and the development is optimised for natural daylight, airflow and water views to foster wellbeing, sustainability and spaces that foster community interaction."

Sunito has consistently described the project as a "city within a city", with a strong emphasis on creating a destination that extends beyond housing.

"We want to create a development that's not only to be seen, but to be experienced by the whole local community," he said.

The approval comes as Five Dock continues its transformation ahead of the opening of the Sydney Metro West line, with the new Five Dock station set to significantly improve connections between the Inner West, Parramatta and the Sydney CBD.&nbsp;

The precinct will also benefit from its proximity to the Parramatta Road corridor, nearby waterfront parklands and established retail and dining offerings that have made Five Dock one of Sydney's most tightly held Inner West suburbs.

Qantas Loyalty chief executive officer Lesley Grant has paid $2 million for a Mosman townhouse overlooking Middle Harbour.
The modern three bedroom, two bathroom home with separate study features numerous terraces and a ground floor courtyard.
McGrath Mosman agent Michael Coombs secured the sale. It was sold by interests associated with Ferrari Australasia chief Herbert Appleroth.
Grant has extensive experience in the aviation industry and has been CEO at Qantas Loyalty since 2012.
She was the architect of the creation of Qantas Loyalty, which last month reconnected its point system with the Woolworths Rewards program.

Olympic rower James Stewart has quickly found a buyer for his Mosman home, Jasmine Cottage, ahead of its scheduled LJ Hooker auction.
Named Jasmine due to its wall of aromatic Jasmine flowers in the back yard, the circa 1910 Federation has three bedrooms and one bathroom.
James paid $811,000 in 2005 for the home and has renovated throughout.
It comes with a formal lounge room with restored ornamental fireplace, a custom gourmet kitchen and an entertaining courtyard.
James competed at the 1996, 2000 and 2004 Olympics with his twin brother Geoff.
They won a bronze medal in 2000 and again in 2004 when joined by younger brother Steve.

After two false starts, the Olympic fast man Matt Shirvington and wife, Jessica have snappily sold their Mosman home on its third marketing campaign.
<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-nsw-mosman-123329394" target="_blank">The updated 1897 Federation home</a> sold through McGrath's Michael Coombs to a local buyer.
Coombs had set an early spring September 10 auction date. The price guidance was around $4.3 million.
Set on a large 822 sqm corner block, the single level home has four bedrooms, a grand formal dining room and a private marble finished outdoor terrace. 
Shirvo, known as the second fastest Australian sprinter of all time, paid $2.5 million for the home in 2008, the year he retired as a professional athlete.

Morella, the unliveable Mosman mansion perched above Chowder Bay that has sat idle for 15 years, has been listed for sale.
More than $7.3 million is being sought for what remains of the home built in 1939 for the Parer family.   Executors of the estate, McGirr Lawyers have instructed LJ Hooker Lower North Shore agents Geoff Smith and Richard Harding to put it to September 29 auction.
It will be welcomed by the many disgruntled nearby neighbours who have periodically called the police to the long abandoned property whenever it was occupied by teenagers at night.
Morella could return to be one of Mosman's most noteworthy residences, with its position upon the Taylor Bay Walk, but it would take a huge renovation. 
After it was designed by architect Eric Nicholls, who was Walter Burley Griffin's partner, the 1943 edition of Australian Home Beautiful magazine devoted six pages to its sandstone grandeur. 
“An immense circular loggia is built out from the central hall facing the water,” the article said.
“Its short Corinthian pillars support an equally huge open sun deck reached from the bedroom above.
“Then beneath this, for the site of the house slopes steeply down to the water, excavation has been made for the building of a ballroom across the entire front of the house.”
The home on its 865 sqm block is listed as a heritage item under Mosman’s Local Environment Plan.
It was built for Leo Parer, who was a director of the Stanford X-Ray company, and his wife Helena.
They lived there with their three children, Anthony, Mariana and Sarita.
In 2005 when NSW Heritage met with Anthony Parer the cost of fixing the home was estimated as in excess of $1 million, which Parer advised the family did not have.

After two false starts, the Olympic fast man Matt Shirvington and wife, Jessica have relisted their Mosman home for a third marketing campaign.
The updated 1897 Federation home dropped off online listing sites earlier this year, but is back this time through McGrath's Michael Coombs.
Coombs has set an early spring September 10 auction date. The price guidance is $4.3 million to $4.6 million.
It had previously been with Belle Property Mosman which failed to sell the home after over 100 days on market.
The couple tried to sell the home back in 2012, however failed after spending 65 days on the market.
Set on a large 822 sqm corner block, the single level home has four bedrooms, a grand formal dining room and a private marble finished outdoor terrace. 
Shirvo, known as the second fastest Australian sprinter of all time, paid $2.5 million for the home in 2008, the year he retired as a professional athlete.
Since life off the track, Shirvington has appeared on Dancing with the Stars, and is currently a sports presenter for Sky News Australia and host of Fox Sports NRL coverage.
He and wife, author Jessica are childhood sweethearts, having been together since they were 17. She is the author of the popular Violet Eden Chapters series.
They have two daughters, Sienna and Winter.
Mosman is one of the slowest selling private treaty markets, according to CoreLogic, with their time on market currently at 70 days. The Sydney average is 34 days.

ALDI have secured a 1500 sqm store site on Sydney's affluent Lower North Shore in Bridgeport Shopping Centre in Mosman.
Set to open in May 2017, ALDI will now be able to fill a major gap in their network with their nearest stores being in Manly, North Sydney and Chatswood.
“ALDI will function as the major customer attraction on Level 1 of the centre – complementing the offer of Harris Farm and IGA on the ground floor," said Bob Walsh, Principal of centre managers and retail leasing agents Ray White Retail. 
“The addition of ALDI will reinforce Bridgepoint's position as the premier shopping centre on the Lower North Shore."
“Bridgepoint is already rated in the top six shopping centres nationally for sales per square metre for centres of this type,” he said.
Bridgepoint Shopping centre is 6800 sqm in size and, in addition to the three major food tenancies, has 35 specialty stores. 
It was acquired by a local property trust through Ray White Retail for $43 million in mid-2011.
The announcement comes as the centre embarks on a $10 million refurbishment that will involve the provision of new enlarged customer amenities, as well as a comprehensive aesthetic upgrade.
Most notably, a new large passenger lift will be installed that will link both retail levels with all car parking levels.

Their prior Mosman home was sold for $14 million in 2012 to UBS boss Matthew Grounds.
Their redundant apartment was sold late last year to the chief executive of Fairfax Media Greg Hywood for $4.1 million.
Set in The Residence overlooking Hyde Park, the media company boss bought the three-bedroom apartment directly from the Allaways, who had paid $2.8 million in 2013. Allaway has 30 years experience in the global finance industry.

There's a restart with the former Australian sprint champ turned television presenter Matthew Shirvington hoping to sell his Mosman home.
Shirvington and wife Jessica listed the home in 2012 but couldn't find a buyer.
They paid a bullish $2.5 million for the late 1880s home in 2008 and renovated it in 2010, the year he joined Sky News Australia as their sports presenter.
Met by a striking entry foyer, the home retained some of its original features, such as its formal banquet dining hall and a sunroom with original tessellated tiles.
Set on an 822 sqm parcel, the family home has four bedrooms and a kids playroom which opens to private courtyard gardens with established vegetable and herb gardens.
The property is listed through Belle Property. 
Shirvington was a five-time 100 metre Australian track champion and represented Australia in the Sydney Olympic Games.
He took part in Dancing with the Stars in 2004 whilst in athletics before retiring completely in 2008.
Since leaving the track Shirvington has featured as a guest on the Biggest Loser and he has been the host of Fox Sports NRL coverage and joined The Back Page as a co-host.
The Olympian stayed in athletics in Australia, working with St George Illawarra Dragons in 2012 pre-season as their sprint training coach.
The second fastest Australian in history.
Author Jessica Shirvington is known for The Violet Eden Chapters.
They have two daughters Sienna and Winter.
The family are now based in Cremorne Point having paid $8.4 million for the manor-style mansion Belvedere last year
