Repeat buyers are one of the strongest measures of confidence in any apartment development.

At <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/era-newcastle-west-124-126-bull-street-newcastle-west-nsw-2302">ERA</a> in Newcastle West, some purchasers are returning to <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/gwh">GWH</a> after living at the developer's One Apartments. Their decision to purchase again was driven by the quality of life they found after moving into their first GWH home.

Keith Wilton had spent years living in a house in East Maitland before deciding it was time for a change. Apartment living had always been on his radar, but he was selective about what he wanted.

"I had some boxes I wanted to tick," he says.

Keith points to the open-plan design, generous outdoor areas and considered inclusions as key reasons One Apartments worked for him.

“One of those things was a nice indoor open plan area, but also I wanted a nice outdoor open area that I could entertain on in summer or Christmases or birthdays,” he says.

He also found value in the smaller details, from integrated appliances to shared resident spaces including the pool, cinema and rooftop areas.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=356818]

After comparing several developments, he chose One Apartments because of GWH's longstanding local reputation and his own experience working with the developer on a commercial project more than a decade earlier.

"I knew that they were local, that the quality of the build was going to be up there. I'd looked at other apartment complexes around and close by, and I just knew that here was a better decision location wise."

Today, Keith says the move has completely changed how he experiences Newcastle.

"I enjoy living in this location because it's more of a lifestyle change. That Newcastle city living where you can walk to restaurants and bars and even beaches and parks and even shopping across the road."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=356828]

Beyond the location, he says it's the sense of community that has surprised him most.

"Everyone loves living here because they chose to live here, but everyone looks out for each other. It's a real great community feel here."

For Aimee and Lyle Goodman, the journey started almost by chance.

<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/tsioMLcnjas?si=zq-ys3JuWpfa5hFv" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

The couple happened to be having coffee in Newcastle when they noticed the site where One Apartments was about to begin construction.

"We were aware GWH was planning a development," Aimee says. "We made one phone call and things moved pretty quickly after that."

As busy business owners, they initially thought apartment living would simply reduce the maintenance that came with larger homes. Instead, it fundamentally changed how they spent time together.

"We actually catch up more as a family now," Aimee says.

"We've had homes with big yards and lots of space, but everyone ended up in different rooms. Here we'll have dinner together, the kids can play, and we spend far more quality time together."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=356829]

Lyle says their confidence came from GWH's reputation within Newcastle's building industry.

"I know people who've worked across different apartment projects, and whenever GWH came up the feedback was always the same. They're rock solid. They're quality."

That confidence only grew throughout the buying process.

"One of the things that really impressed us with GWH was the whole process, was the communication," Lyle says. "It was consistent, it was regular, there was no problem if we had some weird questions, there was no problems in getting answers."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=351104]

Aimee says one moment stood out.

"The project actually finished on time. We realised we needed to hurry up and sell our house because everything was happening exactly when they said it would."

The positive experience at One Apartments ultimately gave all three buyers the confidence to purchase again with GWH, this time at ERA.

Their confidence reflects what many buyers are seeking in today's apartment market. Location remains important, but so too does certainty around delivery, quality and long-term liveability.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=356822]

ERA builds on those foundations with 280 one, two and three-bedroom apartments across two landmark towers in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/newcastle-west-nsw-2302">Newcastle West</a>.&nbsp;

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/fk-australia">Fender Katsalidis</a>, the project will include more than 2,000 square metres of resident amenities, including a resort-style pool, gym, sauna, private cinema and rooftop entertaining spaces overlooking the harbour and coastline.&nbsp;

The development is also within walking distance of the Newcastle Interchange, Honeysuckle, Darby Street, the harbour foreshore, restaurants, retail and the city’s beaches, continuing the walkable lifestyle that existing GWH buyers say has transformed how they live.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=356826]

For Keith, the appeal remains straightforward.

"You feel at home even before you've moved into your home."

For Aimee, the change is measured in time.

“I just felt like I had more time,” she says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135096 project_image_fid=351102]

Construction at ERA is now underway, with more than half of the residences already sold and limited two and three-bedroom apartments remaining in the East Tower release. Priced from $980,000 for two-bedroom residences and $1.46 million for three-bedroom residences, buyers can secure an apartment with a 10 per cent deposit, with premium homes offering ocean views from Level 8 and harbour views from Level 10.

ERA is also backed by Resilience Insurance's 10-year Latent Defects Insurance policy, providing protection against structural or waterproofing defects for 10 years after completion. The project is anticipated to be completed in early 2028.

From ONE to ERA: Why buyers are choosing GWH again in Newcastle West

Virgate Property Group is preparing to commence construction of Verdé, its new apartment development in Melbourne's Arts Precinct at Southbank, following a strong run of sales that has seen more than half of the project's 173 apartments secured.

Verdé has attracted a broad mix of first home buyers, owner-occupiers upgrading from nearby inner-city suburbs and investors, with younger owner-occupier couples aged between 28 and 45 accounting for the strongest enquiry. Many are already living in Southbank, South Melbourne, Albert Park, Port Melbourne, South Yarra and the CBD.

"Verdé is located in one of the most desirable pockets of southern Melbourne," Blair Property Group Director Darren Blair, who is managing sales at Verdé, said.

"It's within walking distance of the Arts Centre, Royal Botanic Gardens, Albert Park Lake, and Southbank's restaurants and retail. It's a great lifestyle location with strong amenity and liveability, which made it a very attractive choice for the project."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4661 project_image_fid=372549]

Virgate was already familiar with the precinct, having previously delivered the successful Domain House development in neighbouring South Melbourne. That experience gave the developer confidence to acquire the Coventry Street site and continue expanding its presence in Melbourne's inner south.

"We had been keeping an eye on the site and the broader precinct for a few months before deciding to move forward with the acquisition," Virgate said.

The project was ultimately secured in 2020 following feasibility studies, planning assessments and due diligence, with the brief centred on delivering "a high-quality, considered design that feels both refined and fit for purpose."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4661 project_image_fid=314259]

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bruce-henderson-architects">Bruce Henderson Architects</a>, Verdé comprises 173 one, two and three-bedroom apartments priced from $599,000. The architecture is distinguished by a faceted glass façade that responds to both the site's outlook and Melbourne's changing light conditions.

According to Bruce Henderson Architects, the coloured glazing gives the building a distinctive identity while also providing privacy and solar shading, with residences oriented to capture views across the bay, city skyline and surrounding parklands.

Inside, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/interior-designers/designoffice">DesignOffice</a> has created interiors focused on natural light, efficient planning and enduring materials. Apartments feature engineered oak flooring, natural stone benchtops, floor-to-ceiling glazing and SMEG appliances, while a restrained material palette aims to complement the expansive outlooks rather than compete with them.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4661 project_image_fid=372550]

Resident amenity has also been designed around everyday functionality rather than occasional use. Facilities include a concierge-serviced lobby, residents' lounge with fireplace, library and co-working space, gym, terrace garden with barbecue facilities, ground-floor café, and package delivery management.

The project's location continues to be one of its strongest drawcards. Positioned on Coventry Street, Verdé sits within walking distance of the National Gallery of Victoria, Arts Centre Melbourne, Royal Botanic Gardens and Albert Park Lake, while Southbank's dining precinct, Sturt Street trams and the new ANZAC Station are all nearby. The surrounding education catchment also includes Melbourne Grammar, Melbourne Girls Grammar, Mac.Robertson Girls' High School and several major university campuses.

The sales team says buyers have responded particularly well to the combination of location, design quality and long-term liveability.

"They're responding really positively to the quality of the design, premium resident amenities and the uninterrupted views. Many also appreciate the location and how connected it is to everything they need."

The ability to secure stamp duty savings before completion has also been a key factor for purchasers, alongside the opportunity to personalise finishes ahead of settlement.

With construction set to commence soon and more than half the apartments already sold, Verdé enters its next phase as one of the Arts Precinct's more established apartment developments, offering remaining buyers an opportunity to secure a residence before construction advances further. Expected completion is scheduled for late 2027.

Virgate's Verdé Southbank moves toward construction as sales fly past halfway stage

Downsizer-focused apartment development Kooyongkoot in Hawthorn has been recognised at the 2026 Better Future Melbourne Design Awards, taking home Gold and Silver awards in two categories.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kooyongkoot-hawthorn-1-kooyongkoot-road-hawthorn-vic-3122">Kooyongkoot</a>, currently being delivered by developer PQD and designed by Cera Stribley, received Gold in the Interior Design – Proposed category and Silver in the Architecture – Proposed category.

The dual recognition reflects the design approach behind the boutique development on prestigious Kooyongkoot Road, where the focus has been on creating homes for downsizers seeking the space, quality and functionality of a detached house within a low-rise apartment building.

Rather than maximising apartment numbers, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/pqd">PQD</a> and <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cera-stribley-architects">Cera Stribley</a> limited the development to just 18 residences, allowing for larger floorplans, greater privacy, generous landscaping and expansive communal spaces.&nbsp;The majority of the apartments also benefit from corner aspects, allowing for dual sources of natural light.

Now around 70 per cent complete and on track for completion in November 2026, Kooyongkoot will comprise a mix of garden residences, ter​race apartments, sub-penthouses, and is crowned by two half-floor penthouses with direct lift access and private rooftop terraces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102717 project_image_fid=355297]

The Silver Award for Architecture recognised the way the building responds to its prominent corner position at the ent​rance to Hawthorn's Scotch Hill precinct, one of Melbourne's most established residential neighbourhoods.

Rather than competing with the grand homes that line Kooyongkoot Road, the architectural approach focused on restraint and longevity, using curved brickwork, generous landscaping and carefully considered proportions to integrate with the existing streetscape.

"The form feels fluid and timeless, as though shaped by the landscape itself – architecture that belongs, rather than competes," said Chris Stribley, Co-Founder and Managing Principal of Cera Stribley.

The judging submission also highlighted practical innovations throughout the building, including lift cores servicing only nine homes each, a central landscaped lightcourt designed to bring daylight and ventilation into the building, and fully enclosed private storage rooms with lighting, power and shelving to better accommodate residents transitioning from larger family homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102717 project_image_fid=355293]

The Gold Award for Interior Design recognised the project's focus on long-term liveability rather than display-home aesthetics.

According to the awards submission, the interiors were designed from the inside out, prioritising how homes would function over decades of daily use through generous proportions, practical storage, durable natural materials and flexible layouts.

The specification includes natural stone throughout, upgraded acoustic glazing, V-ZUG appliances and fully enclosed storage rooms, alongside an amenity offering focused on wellness, entertainment and everyday convenience.&nbsp;

Residents will have access to a gym and yoga studio, a wellness centre featuring traditional and infrared saunas, a cold therapy shower and treatment room, as well as a residents' lounge and golf simulator/cinema room for entertainment.&nbsp;Kooyongkoot has also considered the everyday convenience of its residents by offering a private carwash and pet wash facilities on site as well as dedicated parcel lockers and oversized fully enclosed storage rooms.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102717 project_image_fid=355303]

The project's attention to detail has already resonated with buyers. Earlier this year, Kooyongkoot recorded one of Boroondara's highest apartment sales when an $8 million penthouse was purchased by a Melbourne CEO downsizing from a nearby family home.

"Every detail feels deliberate, from the overall design down to the smallest touches," the purchaser said.

"The level of quality and refinement is exceptional, but what really sold it was how liveable it felt... It felt like a place where everything had been considered, not just a luxury building."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102717 project_image_fid=355304]

Sustainability also formed a key part of both award submissions. Kooyongkoot is targeting a minimum 7.5-star NatHERS rating across all residences, supported by passive design principles, high-performance glazing, EV charging infrastructure, water reuse systems and a wellness model focused on lower-energy dry facilities rather than pools and large wet areas.

Located within walking distance of Scotch College, Methodist Ladies' College, Koo​yong Lawn Tennis Club, Aubur​n Village and Camberwell Junction, Kooyongkoot continues to target owner-occupiers looking to remain in Melbourne's inner east without compromising on space or quality. A limited selection of two, three and four-bedroom residences remains available, with prices starting from $1.9 million.

Kooyongkoot wins Gold and Silver at Better Future Melbourne Design Awards

New apartment supply has become increasingly constrained across <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/parramatta-nsw-2150">Parramatta</a> in recent years, with fewer projects progressing through to completion as development conditions have become more challenging.

It makes <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/novm">NOVM</a>'s 2021-completed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/the-lennox-parramatta-12-phillip-street-parramatta-nsw-2150">The Lennox</a> one of the most recently completed residential towers on the Parramatta River, and among the newest apartment developments in Sydney's second CBD.

With the project largely completed before the sharp escalation in construction costs and inflation following the pandemic, The Lennox is now offering pricing that would be difficult to replicate in a comparable new development in Parramatta today, or across much of Western Sydney.

The majority of the 413 apartments at The Lennox sold before and shortly after completion. A limited release of the remaining apartments has recently been brought to market by capital partner <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/equitifund-group">Equitifund</a>, with entry-level pricing from $700,000 and two-bedroom apartments available from under $1 million.

Rising above the Parramatta River at 12 Phillip Street, The Lennox comprises one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments, appealing to first home buyers, young professionals, families, downsizers and interstate investors seeking a completed apartment in one of Australia's fastest-growing economic centres.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5743 project_image_fid=372394]

Rather than positioning Parramatta as an alternative to Sydney's CBD, Equitifund believes the city has reached a point where it stands on its own merits.

"Parramatta is no longer simply an alternative to Sydney CBD, it's becoming a destination in its own right," Equitifund Executive Chairman Greg Huxley said.

"The Lennox captures that evolution with a level of quality and amenity that's difficult to match at its price point."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5743 project_image_fid=953]

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/marchese-partners">Marchese Partners</a>, the tower responds directly to its riverfront setting through expansive glazing and open-plan layouts that maximise views across the Parramatta River and city skyline. Interiors feature engineered timber flooring, stone benchtops, stainless steel appliances and floor-to-ceiling glazing, while generous balconies extend the living spaces outdoors.

Marchese Partners says the project was conceived to balance high-quality apartment living with practical, long-term functionality, pairing larger, efficient floorplans with amenities more commonly associated with five-star hotels.

That emphasis continues through the resident facilities, which include a 20-metre rooftop swimming pool, fully equipped gym and wellness spaces, full-time concierge, a residents' lounge, function room, private lifts, secure basement parking and rooftop communal areas overlooking the Parramatta River. Ground-floor boardwalk retail and dining further activate the riverfront and integrate the building into the surrounding public realm.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5743 project_image_fid=925]

Australian housing and finance group Equitifund has secured the remaining apartments, believing there are few completed apartment opportunities in Parramatta that offer the same combination of location, amenity and pricing.

Equitifund National Sales Director Ben Hamblett says buyers are increasingly recognising that premium apartment living no longer needs to come with Sydney CBD pricing.

"The Lennox is where aspirational living becomes attainable," Hamblett said.

"Wake to river and mountain views, step into Sydney's Second CBD, and arrive home to resort-calibre amenities, all without the harbour price tag."

Hamblett says owner-occupiers are also attracted by the convenience of having Westfield Parramatta, Church Street's dining precinct, Parramatta Park, Riverside Theatres, Western Sydney University and major transport connections all within walking distance.

"At The Lennox, lifestyle is not an afterthought, it is the foundation."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5743 project_image_fid=5374]

The Lennox places residents within walking distance of Parramatta Square, Westfield Parramatta, Church Street Eat Street, Parramatta Station, the ferry wharf, Light Rail, the future Sydney Metro West, Parramatta Park and CommBank Stadium, reinforcing Parramatta's position as one of Australia's most connected metropolitan centres outside Sydney's CBD.

Equitifund says buyers visiting the display suite consistently comment on the quality of the finishes, generous floorplans, river and skyline views, and the walkability of the location. The project has attracted a broad mix of local professionals, upsizers, downsizers, buyers relocating from Sydney's inner suburbs and interstate investors seeking long-term growth opportunities.

That demand aligns with Parramatta's continued evolution as an economic powerhouse. Equitifund Research and Market Insights specialist John Bekiaris says sustained population growth, infrastructure investment and expanding employment opportunities continue to support long-term housing demand across the city.

"Parramatta has evolved from a satellite city into one of Australia's most important economic centres. Population growth, infrastructure investment and employment are all supporting sustained long-term housing demand."

The apartment price gap drawing Sydney buyers west

A luxury beachfront apartment at Rainbow Bay has more than doubled in value since it sold off the plan six years ago, setting a new local apartment record in the process.

The three-bedroom apartment in the Flow development on Petrie Street, the first of four new projects locally by Paul Gedoun's S&amp;S Projects, has sold for $7.4 million, after originally selling for $3.27 million when the project launched in 2020.

The seventh-floor apartment, comprising 187 sqm of internal living space and a 54 sqm balcony overlooking Froggies Beach and Snapper Rocks, was purchased by a local family.

The transaction was negotiated by Pezet Matheson director Kerry Pezet and equates to more than $30,000 per sqm.

Pezet said the sale reflected the limited opportunities to buy into the boutique beachfront development.

"The sale highlights the rarity of opportunities within the boutique beachfront development, where residences seldom become available," Pezet said.

"Flow is one of the Gold Coast's most tightly held buildings. Buyers from our database move quickly when residences become available, and achieving an off-market sale at $7.4 million demonstrates the depth of demand for property of this calibre."

<img alt="Flow" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c585b206-2130-4eee-a50c-3f27c51a7c70" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-07-06%20at%208.33.25%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=m3pHRDV62Y3fvN.XQuQHq.52ilTWpRLf" />

Flow was the first of four luxury apartment developments delivered by Paul Gedoun's S&amp;S Projects at Rainbow Bay and was completed in 2023.

Positioned on the beachfront overlooking Snapper Rocks, the residence includes three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a powder room and views stretching north along the coastline towards Surfers Paradise.

Pezet Matheson Residential principal Mitchell Lambert said buyers continued to prioritise quality beachfront apartments in tightly held locations.

"Flow Residences offers a rare combination of elevated beachfront positioning, architectural excellence, comprehensive resident amenity and premium finishes, which is exactly what discerning purchasers are seeking," Lambert said.

"The transaction further reinforces Rainbow Bay's reputation as one of Australia's premier coastal lifestyle destinations, where limited supply and growing demand continue to support strong market performance."

Pezet Matheson originally marketed and sold out Flow off the plan, making the latest transaction a return to one of the project's original buyers.

Paul Gedoun is selling his third project, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/radia-rainbow-bay-271-boundary-street-coolangatta-qld-4225">Radia Rainbow Bay</a>, after recently completing, and selling out, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/esprit-217-227-boundary-street-coolangatta-qld-4225">Esprit</a>.

Rainbow Bay apartment doubles in price since off the plan sale during pandemic

Palm Beach

It was in the 1940s when the Dorr family built a timber shack on a prime 1,200 sqm site just off the sand at Palm Beach.

Now eight decades later, the family are moving with the times. They have full development approval for Seaclusion, a rare collection of just 40 apartments designed by the equally local architecture firm BDA.

The robust Queenslander will be torn down in the coming months to make way for the nine-level project. Siblings Andrew, Cameron, Catherine and Georgina having grown up holidaying on North Palm Beach for over 50 years, in the house their grandparents built all those years ago.

But it won&#39;t be the end of the Dorr family&#39;s relationship with the Twenty First Avenue site. They intend on keeping a handful of the apartments in Seaclusion to keep the family history on the property going.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107136 project_image_fid=202031]

&ldquo;This is an area very close to the Dorr family&rsquo;s heart, so it was important their family could continue to share in its charm for years to come,&rdquo; Jayde Pezet, Director of project marketing agency Pezet Matheson said.

No doubt there&#39;s also the&nbsp;fear that in today&#39;s market there won&#39;t be another opportunity to buy into a brand new apartment in Palm Beach, with supply rapidly shrinking for more affordable stock.

&ldquo;Given the difficulty for prospective homeowners to join the Palm Beach community, the family realised their home on Twenty First Avenue was a prime opportunity to create something of significance, not only for their loved ones, but for a new generation of Palm Beach locals,&quot; Pezet added.

Over 80 per cent&nbsp;of the building&rsquo;s apartments will have either an easterly or northerly aspect to maximise sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, verdant Burleigh headland and distant Surfers Paradise skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107136 project_image_fid=202033]

Pezet says&nbsp;Seaclusion will be the epitome of everything desirable from a beachside oasis, only footsteps away from the shoreline and surrounded by world class views in each direction.

&quot;Targeted at local and interstate owner occupiers, the project is poised to provide some reprieve to the constricting supply of residences across the Gold Coast, Pezet says.

Todd Matheson, who works side by side with Pezet as a director at Pezet Matheson, notes there&nbsp;have been very few new projects launched to market this year, making it next to impossible to secure new product in Palm Beach.

&nbsp;&ldquo;Seaclusion has stepped in to fill a major gap in the marketplace for high quality residences, set in the dream beachfront location, accompanied by all the necessary amenities to enhance coastal living,&quot; Matheson says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107136 project_image_fid=202032]

Crowning Seaclusion will be an expansive resident&rsquo;s communal area, complete with lounges, barbecue facilities, dining space, a large pool, all encased in generous landscaping.

BDA were inspired by the sites&nbsp;coastal location for the design,&nbsp;with cantilevered curved concrete horizontal forms and a floating sculptural screen to the west a particular highlight of the striking exterior.

&ldquo;There&rsquo;s a textured and timeless material palette of stone, white concrete and batten screening, creating a rich and layered coastal effect,&quot; BDA&#39;s Adam Beck noted in the documentation submitted to council.

&ldquo;Inspired by the natural rhythms and colour tones of the surrounding environment, the architectural form pays homage to its local context and character.&rdquo;

The story behind Palm Beach's latest apartment development, Seaclusion

Palm Beach was one of the most in demand spots on the Gold Coast

Cabana Palm Beach, The Tally, The Monroe, and Hemingway were among a number to sell out&nbsp;in double quick time. And while demand has continued, the market has been starved of stock, with little to no fresh new projects launched in the last six months.

Buyers finally have another opportunity to secure a slice of Palm Beach, considered one of the most local spots in the whole of the Gold Coast which is being overran with Sydneysiders and Melburnians either seeking a holiday bolthole or a future home as the pandemic sped up retirement for many.

Seaclusion, on Twenty First Avenue just one block back from the beach, is one of the most local projects anyone will be able to find.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107136 project_image_fid=202029]

It&#39;s being developed by the local Dorr family, who have lived at the prime dress circle spot for over seven decades. The Dorr family actually built the home on the 1,229 sqm&nbsp;site which is soon to be demolished to make way for the&nbsp;nine-level development.

An attractive proposition for buyers is that&nbsp;the Dorr family are intending on keeping a number of the apartments in the building, which ensures their level of commitment to the project.

Pezet Matheson Director Todd Matheson says the Dorr family are wanting to build a legacy.

&quot;They want to create a legacy for both Palm Beach and their family,&quot; Matheson says.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107136 project_image_fid=202033]

&quot;They&#39;re making a statement that they want to be here for another 70 years, and that&#39;s a good sign for buyers that the developer will be creating something to last.&quot;

Seaclusion will be made up of 40 one, two and three-bedroom apartments.

The Dorr family have pulled the best team together to create Seaclusion. BDA Architecture has designed the striking development with&nbsp;striking batten timber feature on the facade.

Matheson says Seaclusion is a rare offering for the exclusive suburb.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=107136 project_image_fid=202034]

&quot;Nobody builds one and two-bedroom apartments at this price point on the beach side of the highway,&quot; Matheson says.

&quot;Most apartment developments on the beach side are half or full floors, and can start anywhere from $2.5 million to $4 million.&quot;

There&#39;s only a handful of one-bed apartments left, priced from $695,000. The two-bedroom apartments are priced from $950,000, and the three-bed stock from $1,495,000.

Matheson&#39;s team sold out The Tally in Palm Beach last year, at a not too dissimilar price point. He expects Seaclusion to not stick around for long either.

&quot;One of the biggest drawcards of Seaclusion is the orientation,&quot; Matheson adds.

&quot;Over 80 per cent of apartments are either east facing or north facing. It&#39;s pretty special to get sun for that long.&quot;

The amenity is located on the roof, where there&#39;s a north-facing pool with both ocean and hinterland views, as well as a barbecue area.

Another&nbsp;rare part of the development, particularly&nbsp;in the current Gold Coast apartment market, is the unlikeliness of future redevelopment on the block between Seaclusion and the beach.

A recently renovated house is currently on the beachfront, but between Seaclusion and the house is an easement through to another two houses, which makes it very unlikely of a developer coming in and building a tower.

Seaclusion, on Twenty First Avenue just one block back from the beach, is one of the most local projects anyone will be able to find

Rare opportunity to buy in Palm Beach as Seaclusion apartments launch

Palm Beach is set for a new luxury high-rise apartment development.

STEER&nbsp;will deliver C&Ocirc;TE Palm Beach, a $45&nbsp;million high-rise project at 3 Thirteenth Ave, on the corner of&nbsp;Thirteenth Ave and the dress circle Jefferson Lane. It will see&nbsp;17 half-floor apartments built, each with&nbsp;three&nbsp;bed, three bathrooms, and two parking spaces.

Steer Founder Rob Steer&nbsp;says despite the rising construction&nbsp;prices, there remains a strong local demand. He is committed to delivering the project with a strong local builder.

DKO studio director Kai Chua says the design of each apartment, balances the need for\ shelter and privacy whilst opening to the ocean and magnificent views. It offers all the wonders of modern coastal living with the warm, intimate embrace of home.

The local population in Palm Beach is forecast to grow considerably over the next 10 years, and Steer says that, with height limit laws soon to be introduced, there will be even tighter availability of this type of stock in the coming years.

&quot;We see a unique opportunity to cater for the market&quot;, Steer said.

With due diligence completed on the site, Steer is expecting sales and marketing to begin in July, with construction set to follow shortly after in September.

Jefferson Lane is the most sought-after beachfront strip in Palm Beach. Down the street&nbsp;a 247 sqm, three-bed apartment in 77 Jefferson&nbsp;recently sold for $3.95 million.

Further along the sand&nbsp;at 39-41 Jefferson Lane,&nbsp;Seven Group media heir Ryan Stokes has apartment development plans currently with council.

Dubbed Akuna, a word derives from the Aboriginal word meaning &ldquo;flowing&nbsp;water,&quot; the project will span&nbsp;nine levels and&nbsp;comprise nine three-bedroom apartments and four four-bedroom apartments.

A two-level penthouse&nbsp;at 15 Jefferson Lane sold last year for $7.5 million, which was even more than the suburb&#39;s former $6.9 million record house price sale. That now stands at $8,275,000, a sale achieved earlier this year.

Steer has a mixed bag of projects currently in the pipeline, working on a few residential developments in the southern Gold Coast, a joint venture with Churchill Group for the $50 million redevelopment of the Ashmore Seafood and Steakhouse which will become the Ashmore Markets shopping centre, and his most recent, a joint venture of a new striking hotel in Palm Beach.

First look: STEER to deliver $45 million Palm Beach boutique apartment development

Experienced Queensland developer Paul Spina has led a consortium to lodge a development application for Elevaire Palm Beach.

Elevaire, which is expected to be launched within the next few months, will see 41 apartments created on the prime&nbsp;1,237 sqm site at 1409-1411 Gold Coast Highway - between 23rd Avenue and 25th Avenue -&nbsp;just 50 metres from renowned surf breaks, and 500 metres from the vibrant Palm Beach CBD.

The code-assessable development has been lodged&nbsp;in response to the surging demand for premium residential apartments along the Gold Coast’s southern beaches, as vacancy rates reach a record-low and market fundamentals remain strong.

Designed by leading architects Cottee Parker, the development comprises 41 residences across eight levels, including a mix of one, two&nbsp;and three-bedroom residences, some with additional home office spaces and all with secure parking, including optional electric vehicle charging stations.

All 41 of the apartments will feature premium finishes, full-length windows, and spacious living areas, designed for indoor-outdoor living.

Residences will have access to an innovative wellness-centred recreational area on the ground floor, which will feature hot and cold pools, a steam room and day beds to complement the natural recreational opportunities of the nearby beachside to help residents relax and unwind.

Other facilities will include a private dining room and boardroom to enhance the ability to work and entertain from home.

CBRE Senior Director of Residential Projects Nicholas Clydsdale, who is marketing the new project, said the current available residences in Palm Beach weren’t meeting the huge demand from people wanting to live in the beachside suburb because they were only accessible to a small percentage of the population.

“This development enjoys a location that is quintessential north Palm Beach that meets demand for high-quality apartments with modern amenity,” Clydsdale said.

“It has been designed to appeal to the local owner-occupier market with a diversity of residences including one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, all within a boutique beachside building.”

Clydsdale said Palm Beach continued to mature as a suburb, attracting a variety of new innovative businesses, popular food outlets and infrastructure upgrades.

<a href="/new-apartments/elevaire-palm-beach-1409-1411-gold-coast-highway-palm-beach">To track the project through to sales, be the first to enquire here.</a>

“Palm Beach is home to some of the best restaurants and cafés the Gold Coast has to offer, all of which are within walking distance of the site,” he said.

“This tower will have everything a buyer could want or need within easy reach, including convenient access to the M1 Motorway and Gold Coast Airport, which is just 15 minutes away.

“In addition, stage 4 of the light rail network is in the pipeline for Palm Beach, which will offer residents supreme convenience and connectivity.”

The project will be launched in July, subject to DA approval being obtained.

The town planning report by Zone Planning Group noted that the development&nbsp;includes the Short-Term Accommodation land use to provide the unit owners greater flexibility in the future use of each apartment.

Currently there&#39;s&nbsp;a two-level older commercial building on&nbsp;the 1,643 sqm site. It sits in the mixed-use area of Palm Beach. The height of the tower will see it capture ocean views, given buildings to the east of the Gold Coast Highway have an eight-level development limit.

&quot;The proposal delivers a high-quality design outcome with deep recesses and projections and high quality materials to break up the extent of building mass and positively respond to the surrounding locality,&quot; the report noted.

Across the road, at 6 Palm Avenue, there&#39;s approval for an eight-level project.

Changfa lodge Palm Beach apartment plans

Palm Beach, one of the Gold Coast&#39;s hottest apartment markets, is set for a new unique project just off the beach.

S&amp;S Projects, led by the surfer developer Paul Gedoun, is expanding out of Rainbow Bay, where it&#39;s had back to back successes with its three latest apartment developments.

They&#39;ve just submitted plans for an $88 million mixed-use development at 1128 Gold Coast Highway, a mix of 150 hotel rooms underneath 40 two and three-bedroom apartments. It will replace the popular dining venue, The Collective.

Dubbed St Isla, the project has been designed by S&amp;S&#39;s go-to architecture firm, Cottee Parker, who designed Awaken, Esprit and Flow, in Rainbow Bay. Awaken and Flow are both sold out, with Esprit soon to follow suit.

St Isla will rise 23 levels one row back from the beach and will have 10 two-bedroom apartments and 30 three-bedroom apartments which start from level 12 upwards.

The two-bedroom apartments start from 94 sqm internal with a 14 sqm balcony. The three-bedders have internal living areas from 147 sqm, with a 33 sqm balcony.&nbsp;

There are two amenity levels on the first and second floor. Level one will home a function room with a kitchen and a bar, a full day spa and a gym.

<a href="/new-apartments/st-isla-1128-gold-coast-highway-palm-beach-qld-4221">To keep up with the next stage of development and launch of St Isla, enquire here.</a>

Town planner Urbis said that St Isla will provide a suitable point-of-different to boutique large three and four-bedroom apartment products that are being lodged in recent months.

&quot;With&nbsp;varied sizes and density, these units will vary in price with an intent to attract owner occupiers, first home buyers and down-sizers,&quot; Urbis added.

They put together an economics benefit package, showing how much St Isla would have a positive impact on both the employment and value added to the wider economy.

&quot;Construction associated with the proposed development is expected to add a total of $64.2 million to the economy and support 240 full-time equivalent (FTE) jobs per annum during the construction period,&quot; Urbis predict.

The hotel is expected to bring over 76,000 visitors to Palm Beach.

Construction is expecting to take around two years, and start, pending planning approval, in Q4 2022.

Exclusive: S&S Projects plan for rare Palm Beach apartment hotel development, St Isla

The Palm Beach apartments market is showing no signs of slowing down.

Within the first month of its marketing, the Villea apartment development by the Sydney-based Abadeen Group, has locked away buyers for half of the apartments in the Mawarra Street block of 69.

CBRE&#39;s Director of Residential Projects,&nbsp;Nicholas Clydsdale, says there&#39;s been a real mix of buyers in the development, Abadeen&#39;s first outside of Sydney.

&ldquo;Apartments under $750,000 have had a strong uptake from first home buyers, while units over $850,000 have been snapped up from owner occupiers who love the protected Northern views to Burleigh Headland,&rdquo; Clydsdale said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=178469]

&ldquo;I think the rapid sales success we&rsquo;ve had stems from the considerable value buyers recognise in Villea, with a high-end design and central positioning that offers an extremely reasonable entry point into the Palm Beach market without having to compromise on quality.&rdquo;

Just 32 two and three-bedroom apartments now remain in the eight-level, BDA Architecture-designed building, which are priced from $675,000.

&ldquo;Given the rate with which the first apartments vanished from the market, we expect the final allocation will be completely sold out within the coming weeks,&rdquo;&nbsp;Clydsdale suggested.

Villea sits ideally off the Gold Coast Highway, just&nbsp;400 metres from the Palm Beach shoreline and 800 metres from the popular swimming spot Tallebudgera Creek. Villea will have picturesque views across the coastline, Burleigh Headland and the hinterland.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=172249]

Residents of&nbsp;Villea will have access to a resort-style pool, fully equipped gym, recreational BBQ area and boutique retail strip on the street-level.

&ldquo;65% of purchases so far have come from Queensland locals, but a considerable 35% of buyers are Sydney residents, which is a rather impressive testament to Abadeen&rsquo;s reputation which has pursued them into the Gold Coast marketplace,&rdquo;&nbsp;Clydsdale added.

&ldquo;I think whether you&rsquo;re familiar with the Gold Coast or not, there&rsquo;s no denying Palm Beach is the precinct with it all, and Villea is sat right at its core.&rdquo;

Abadeen is an experienced developer that has completed more than $1.3 billion in residential and commercial projects over the past 20 years, predominantly in NSW.

Villea, Palm Beach apartment development, secures 50% of sales in first month

The Gold Coast&nbsp;apartment market is continuing its bull run of sell-outs.

The latest comes from Palm Beach, where The Tally, the 45-apartment development on Twenty-Eighth Avenue, sold out in under three months.

The marketing began in mid-July, where half of the apartments were accounted for in less than two weeks through KM Sales and Marketing agents Todd Matheson and Chez Fraser.

Matheson says around 70 per cent of apartments went to locals.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95222 project_image_fid=170590]

&quot;It was a huge success, with big pricing per square metre bettering anything else that side of the Gold Coast Highway&quot;, Matheson added.

The Tally, to the western side of the Gold Coast Highway but still just a stone&#39;s throw from the beach, was the work of Scott Dolso&#39;s MVGS Property Group.

They had BDA Architecture design the nine-level building, which in their design statement said was inspired by the natural landforms of Burleigh Headland and Tallebudgera Creek, the fluid movements of waves, and the subtle curves of the creek.

&quot;The architectural form and colour tones pay homage to the local context and history,&quot; the statement read.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95222 project_image_fid=170588]

A raft of first home buyers hit the enquiry submission early in the marketing campaign, with the one-bedroom apartments priced from $450,000, which included a car space Unsurprisingly, they were the first to be snapped up.

MVGS recently developed Canopy, a similar development of 49 apartments&nbsp;also designed by BDA, nearby at 3-7 Twenty Fourth Avenue.

A number of the buyers in The Tally came&nbsp;from Canopy.

The luxury Palm Beach apartment market continues to gather steam, and with that is a solid pipeline of luxury apartment developments.

The latest to launch is Ocean House, a boutique collection of just eight full-floor apartments by the&nbsp;Sydney-based developer Macquarie York.

The approved development has been designed by the local architecture firm&nbsp;BDA Architects, who say the striking building is&nbsp;sculpted&nbsp;from inspiration from the surrounding natural environment of the movement of water and sand.

&quot;Expressive architecture portrays a sense of subtropical architecture&quot; BDA advise in their design statement, with architectural elements of sun hoods, moveable screens, large balconies and deep roof eaves.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=22108 project_image_fid=179623]

The apartments, priced from $2.9 million, each span 200 sqm and have three bedrooms, as well as a media/multi-purpose room.

There will be shared resident amenity in a resort-style pool, dedicated barbecue and dining areas, and landscaping throughout.

&ldquo;Ocean House will embody the finest luxury touches, alongside thoughtful additions that are made for practical liveability&rdquo; Macquarie York founder Roy Skaf said.

The apartments, at 1101 Gold Coast Highway, will back&nbsp;onto Palm Beach Surf Club, placing residents with prime access to the heart of Palm Beach&rsquo;s ambient caf&eacute; and dining culture. The apartments will have views over the water and the hinterland.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=22108 project_image_fid=179621]

&ldquo;Palm Beach is quickly becoming one of the most sought-after suburbs on the Gold Coast, and for good reason,&rdquo;&nbsp;Skaf said.

&ldquo;It&rsquo;s home to the coast&rsquo;s most pristine beachfront, packed with a sensational caf&eacute; and restaurant scene, and remains close to key Gold Coast attractions all while retaining that idyllic relaxed coastal energy.&rdquo;

Drawing inspiration from its natural surrounds, Ocean House residences are designed in an earthy colour palette, with ample storage and high-end finishes.

&ldquo;The superior quality of these homes coupled with their incredible location has been deliberately designed with owner-occupiers and holiday makers in mind,&rdquo; Skaf added.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=22108 project_image_fid=179622]

Ocean House is Macquarie York&#39;s second apartment project on the Gold Coast, having achieved&nbsp;a near sell-out of its debut&nbsp;project, the $77 million Allure development on Chevron Island.

Inside the latest luxury Palm Beach apartment development, Ocean House

The family-owned Gold Coast developer, Lacey Group, are advancing their plans for their two luxury Gold Coast apartment developments, after securing two quick-time sell-outs.

Having just appointed the leading Queensland construction company Hutchinsons, Lacey Group, headed by director Adam Lacey, are fast-tracking construction for their $35 million The Monroe at Palm Beach, and the $63 million Del Ray apartments at Kirra.

The Monroe all-but&nbsp;sold out in May after just two weeks, while Del Ray didn&#39;t even hit the open market, selling all of its 72 apartments prior to its launch.

&ldquo;We are thrilled with the consecutive sales success of the Monroe and the Del Ray, both of which have been incredibly well received,&rdquo; Adam Lacey, Director of Lacey Group, said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89711 project_image_fid=193837] 
The entry of Del Ray at Kirra. Image supplied

&ldquo;Palm Beach and Kirra are arguably two of the hottest beachfront markets on the coast right now, so it&rsquo;s an exciting time to be pioneering the next generation of luxury living on its shores.&rdquo;

Demolition works on both sites has now been completed, with full scale construction scheduled to take off in October.

On the construction partnership, Lacey said&nbsp;Hutchies have a brilliant reputation on the coast for delivering a dynamic portfolio of projects,

&quot;We have full confidence that they will do justice to each project&rsquo;s remarkable design.&quot;

The Del Ray, designed by Plus Architecture, will encompass 72 two and three-bedroom apartments and townhouses, as well as&nbsp;a rooftop infinity pool and terrace, with sweeping&nbsp;views over the ocean, and an exclusive resident&rsquo;s lounge.

Located at 7-11 Miles St, the project is within close proximity to the highly anticipated re-development of the Kirra Beach Hotel, set to offer the bustling Kirra Beach suburb a new entertainment hub and dining pavilion.

The Monroe will sit further south on Palm Beach&#39;s Jefferson Lane dress circle. The project at 124-126 Jefferson Lane will see&nbsp;33 two&nbsp;and three-bedroom apartments created, as well as a townhome and a luxury penthouse. That too will have a 250 sqm rooftop terrace with a swimming pool, fire pit area and views.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89711 project_image_fid=193834]

A large portion of purchases within The Monroe came from previous Lacey Group buyers.

Before the recent sell-outs at The Del Ray and The Monroe, Lacey Group had success with&nbsp;Jefferson, also at Palm Beach, and&nbsp;Southbreak in Kirra.
