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.

A trophy office block in the heart of Darlinghurst is set for a big sale.
The seven level A-grade office block at <a href="https://www.realcommercial.com.au/for-sale/property-19a-boundary-street-darlinghurst-nsw-2010-503366798" target="_blank">19a Boundary Street</a> last traded for $63.5 million in 2017 when it was bought by Haben Property Fund.
It was in 2000 that the warehouse was converted and repurposed as office space, with notable tenants such as creative agency Collider and celebrity chef Donna Hay.
There are 53 tenants in total, with a mix of office and ground level retail and cafe spaces.
Mercer Property and CBRE have been jointly appointed to sell the property that fully leased offers a total lettable area of 6,500 sqm, including a ground floor retail showroom.
It also has secure parking for up to 51 vehicles.
<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/2019/10/22/19a%20Boundary%20Street%20Darlinghurst%201.jpg" alt="">
The net passing income is $4,380,311.22 annually, with a rare five per cent annual increase on leases.
The building was recently upgraded, with a new lift and an upgrade of all amenities.  
CBRE agent Harry Georges is marketing the property in conjunction with Mercer Property's Tom Speakman and Matt Davoren.
Georges said he is expecting significant investor interest.
“With low supply and high demand, office vacancy rates have reached record lows across Sydney,” Georges said.
<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/2019/10/22/19a%20Boundary%20Street%20Darlinghurst%202.jpg" alt="">
“The vacancy rate on the city fringe has contracted for the third consecutive year to circa 3%, the lowest rate of any commercial market in Australia. 
"This is underpinning interest in assets like 19a Boundary Street, which offer strong fundamentals and a diverse tenancy mix.”
George noted that commercial buildings in Darlinghurst were in high demand but rarely brought to market.
“19a Boundary Street also offers significant upside, with scope for a considerable uplift in the existing rents and potential for a future exit strategy via a strata subdivision,” Mr George said.
“Given the building’s location, a conversion to a boutique hotel would be another possibility subject to the relevant planning approvals.”
<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/2019/10/22/19a%20Boundary%20Street%20Darlinghurst%204.jpg" alt="">
Mercer Property agent Tom Speakman said creative buildings are in short supply.
“The Sydney market is experiencing above-average demand for heritage and creative stock,” Speakman said.
“As the lines between work and play continue to blur, occupiers are increasingly looking to grow their businesses and retain talent in creative commercial spaces such as 19a Boundary Street, which are surrounded by superior amenity and new restaurant and bar concepts.”
“The building’s tenancy profile has the potential to provide either an owner-occupation opportunity or allow an incoming purchaser to rework a large portion of office space.
“Leasing to a single, whole building tenant or whole floor tenancies offers the advantage of picking up an additional 15% of net lettable area – all while bringing rents up to market.”

A commercial office space in the Lifestyle Building in the Docklands has been listed for sale.
The 73 square metre office at <a href="https://www.realcommercial.com.au/property-offices-vic-docklands-502835530" target="_blank">838 Collins Street</a>, offered with vacant possession, last traded for $569,745 in 2013.
Savills agents Mark Stafford and Jesse Radisich say thousands of workers are relocating the Docklands each year.
Similarly, two adjoining office level suites on <a href="http://www.colliers.com.au/206637/" target="_blank">level 4</a> of the Lifestyle Building on 838 Collins Street are on the market for $880,000.
They say the Lifestyle Building is in the 'booming Docklands office precinct'.
Signs of this boom are similar sales such as an office component of a Waterfront City commercial development at 425 Docklands Drive.
The 14 fully-leased strata offices had a combined area of 1,494 sqm and a weighted average lease expiry of 2.5 years.
The office is being offered with vacant possession with Southern Cross Station less than 700 metres away.
The Lifestyle Building won the 2013 BPN sustainable buildings award for a major commercial building.
It has 137 individual commercial suites, retails spaces and sits opposite the new ANZ Centre and adjacent to the Myer national support office. 
The building is a composition of rectangular boxes on different axes with a courtyard connecting Collins Street to Victoria Green to the north. 
The facades are comprised of full height “clear” shop front glazing with glass louvre and sun-shading elements to the exterior, maximizing solar access and indoor air quality.

A Canberra office building is set for auction after being fully leased to Seeing Machines for a 10-year term plus option.
The <a href="https://www.realcommercial.com.au/property-offices-act-fyshwick-502563922" target="_blank">165 Canberra Avenue</a> asset in Fyshwick is being auctioned on October 26. Hyperion Property Group has appointed Colliers International to market the campaign.
Seeing Machines is a Canberra start-up and now global organisation listed on the AIM of the London Stock Exchange and currently employ just under 200 people in Canberra.
It develops computer vision related technologies that help machines understand people tracking and interpreting human faces and eyes.
It is a standalone building that has recently undergone cosmetic upgrades, and future tenant works are estimated at $4 million.
Seeing Machines appointed Canberra-based interior design studio, Core Interiors, to design their fit-out.
The two-level building, constructed in 1994, was purpose-built for a technology company.
Colliers International’s Matthew Winter, who is the listing agent, said the 5,256 sqm corner site "presents purchasers with an outstanding long-term proposition.”
“The property lies within the East Lake Precinct which is currently under investigation by the ACT Government for future re-zoning to encourage urban infill via residential development,” said Matthew.

Two adjacent fully leased office buildings in Geelong, Victoria’s largest provincial city, are expected to sell at a below-replacement-cost figure of around $35 million.
The buildings could be sold separately as well, and currently return just over $3 million combined per annum. The properties will be sold by expressions of interest closing November 3.
The properties are being marketed by commercial real estate firm Dawkins Occhiuto’s Andrew Dawkins, Chris Jones and Walter Occhiuto, and Pat Burke of MP Burke Commercial.
Dawkins said the properties would present attractive yields for investors or partial owner-occupiers and presented far more attractive numbers than similar properties in Greater Melbourne, including the prospect of strong rental upside.
“With pre-commitment rents in Geelong at around $440 a sqm, there is a potential arbitrage opportunity for existing buildings that are achieving rents well below those rates,” Dawkins said.
“The momentum in the Geelong market coupled with these new rates being achieved presents a real opportunity for both these assets.’’ 
The property at <a href="https://www.domain.com.au/property-profile/235-237-ryrie-street-geelong-vic-3220" target="_blank">235 Ryrie Street</a> is a three-level building with advanced plans available for an additional two office levels featuring CBD and foreshore views. 
The property is fully leased to five tenants including Bendigo Bank, Clinical Lab and Victorian Regional Chanel Authority returning $748,076 per annum net.
The <a href="https://www.domain.com.au/property-profile/235-237-ryrie-street-geelong-vic-3220" target="_blank">237 Ryrie Street</a> asset is a modern (2008) building of five office levels, featuring a glass curtain facade and an atrium above the foyer. 
It is fully leased to eight tenants including Australian Red Cross, Bendigo Bank, Department of Human Services and Morris Finance, returning $2,345,525 per annum net.
Leased to 5 and 8 tenants
Burke added that increased government and private spending indicates a growing confidence in Geelong along with its record population growth.
“Geelong is currently in the midst of an investment and infrastructure boom with more than $1.3 billion of major construction underway or nearing completion and a further $2.3 billion worth of investment either awaiting commencement or in the planning stages. 
“The construction of the 14-level, $120 million WorkSafe headquarters in Malop Street epitomises Geelong’s relatively recent emergence as a key commercial centre including a number of national government tenants with the TAC, the ABS, NDIS and DHS.
The city of greater Geelong has a current population of more than 229,000 people, which is expected to grow to 320,791 by 2036.

A Shepparton office space currently leased to the state government has been listed for sale.
The ground floor office at 307-331 Wyndham Street, on the corner of Fraser Street, is to be sold subject to registration of a subdivision.
The lot is approximately 965 square metres and has street frontages of approximately 39.2 metres to Wyndham Street and 19 metres to Fraser Street.
The current tenant is the Department of Justice, which has been occupying the premises since 2009 and has a five-year lease which commenced in September 2014, with an option for an additional five years.
The current rental is $162,612 per annum net, with the lease providing fixed annual rental increases at 3.5%, with a market review applicable to the option.
The property is being marketed by selling agents Gray Johnson, in conjunction with local agents Gagliardi Scott Real Estate.
Gray Johnson’s Scott Ashby says he anticipates that the investment will sell on a yield in the 9% to 10% range.
“At a time when yields on commercial investments in Melbourne are transacting in the sub five percent range, this offering provides investors an opportunity to acquire an asset on a comparatively more attractive yield,” he said.
It is to be sold via private sale with the deadline closing on Wednesday 5 April at noon.

An office tower in the Sydney CBD with the NSW government as anchor tenant is up for sale with price expectations of more than $150 million. 
The building at 59 Goulburn Street has potential for further development across the residential, commercial office and hotel sectors.
The freehold asset is 98 percent occupied, has 23 levels with a net lettable area of 18,867 sqm and ground floor retail. It is directly opposite the bustling World Square precinct in the Sydney CBD.
The asset offers a Weighted Average Lease Expiry of 2.3 years and estimated passing income is $8.13 million.
The property is being marketed by JLL and Colliers International on behalf of Roxy-Pacific Holdings Limited, via an international expressions of interest campaign closing on March 23, according to a media release.
The asset has three viable development options. These are; a repositioning of the existing asset with the potential for higher rentals; redevelopment into a new commercial office tower; or redevelopment into a 38-storey mixed-use tower comprising retail and commercial, 407 hotel suites, 90 residential units and 94 car parks. The asset currently has Stage 1 Development Approval for the potential hotel and residential development. JLL’s Ben Hunter, James Aroney and Sam Brewer are the agents on the campaign, along with Colliers International’s Vince Kernahan and James Girvan.  Roxy Pacific Australia director Ben Hopkins said, “After entering the Australian market in 2014 we have managed to build up a robust portfolio of both development and investment assets across Australia with value over $500 million. After fielding numerous offers for 59 Goulburn St Sydney we have decided to offer this landmark freehold opportunity with exciting re-development potential to the market.”
JLL’s Aroney added that the central location and development options will allow the eventual purchaser to create a “new offering amongst one of Sydney’s busiest CBD precincts”. 
“There is ongoing demand for office assets of this nature in Sydney, particularly when there is room for significant rental upside.”
