<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/draycon">Draycon Building</a> is nearing completion of Boutique Chevron Island, a 42-apartment development on the northern end of Chevron Island at 17–19 Parneno Street, with a limited-time offer of fully furnished apartments available.

Now more than 90 per cent complete, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/boutique-chevron-island-17-19-parneno-chevron-island-qld-4217">Boutique</a> has been shaped by one of the Gold Coast’s most tightly held island addresses, where riverfront outlooks and walkable access to Surfers Paradise converge.

For Draycon Building Managing Director Howard Dabit, the appeal of the site was immediate.

“I knew it was a good site as soon as I saw it,” Dabit said.

“The position and location on the north end of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/chevron-island-qld-4217">Chevron Island</a>, the way the river swirls around the site basically from the north to the east, it feels like the site is surrounded by the water. The height that we’ve got and the aspect looking north is beautiful. Eighty per cent of the apartments are looking north so they get that drenching sunlight coming in.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360922]

That northern orientation places the development within a stretch of Chevron Island defined by open river aspects and skyline views, while remaining embedded in the suburb’s established village setting.

Chevron Island has increasingly drawn owner-occupiers seeking centrality without the intensity of high-rise beachfront living. Positioned at the geographical centre of the Gold Coast, the island offers direct access to both the beach and key cultural infrastructure while retaining a neighbourhood-scale character.

Connected by bridge to Surfers Paradise, Chevron Island offers walkable access to beaches, riverfront parklands and a revitalised foreshore boulevard animated by walkers and cyclists throughout the day. The Pacific Ocean is only minutes away, reinforcing the suburb’s dual river-and-surf identity.

At the same time, Thomas Drive forms the spine of the island’s village life, delivering cafés, wine bars, casual dining and everyday services within easy reach. Independent grocers, wellness operators and neighbourhood retailers contribute to a community atmosphere that remains distinct from the vertical scale of the beachfront.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360915]

In the opposite direction, the Green Bridge links directly to HOTA – Home of the Arts – placing galleries, performance venues and parklands within walking distance. Weekly markets and major exhibitions draw visitors from across the region, while residents return to a quieter residential pocket at day’s end.

Public transport, including nearby bus routes and the G:link light rail corridor along the coastal spine, strengthens connectivity north and south. Griffith University, the Gold Coast University Hospital precinct and established private schools such as The Southport School are all within a short drive.

Ongoing investment across Surfers Paradise, HOTA and the broader Southport corridor has elevated amenity while preserving Chevron Island’s comparatively low-rise residential character. It is this balance, walkable village atmosphere paired with metropolitan-scale infrastructure, that continues to differentiate the suburb from higher-density beachfront precincts.

Boutique comprises just 42 residences, designed to maximise river and skyline outlooks within this tightly held island setting.

Boutique Chevron Island is slated for completion in April 2026, with prices starting from $1,220,000.

Sydney developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a> has secured planning approval for a $300 million residential development in Lindfield, marking the company’s second project on Sydney’s North Shore and its first on the Upper North Shore.

Located on Beaconsfield Parade and designed by DKO Architecture, the state significant development comprises three buildings of up to 10 storeys and will include 399 residences, including 59 affordable homes and 40 adaptable homes.

Residences will range in size from one, two and three bedrooms, with two-bedroom apartments accounting for over 60 per cent of the product make-up. Residents will have access to a broad suite of amenities, including a wellness area, indoor and outdoor recreational spaces, a pool, a gym, a community room and a golf simulator.

In line with Deicorp’s long-standing focus on creating transit-oriented communities, the project is located just 260 metres from the Lindfield Train Station, reinforcing its role in delivering well-connected housing close to established infrastructure, retail and local services.

The inclusion of affordable and adaptable housing supports greater diversity within the local market, while the mix of apartment types responds to demand from downsizers, young professionals and families seeking access to the Upper North Shore.

Deicorp Founder Fouad Deiri OAM said the approval represents an important milestone for both the company and the suburb

“This approval allows us to deliver well-designed homes in a location that is already supported by strong transport and community infrastructure," Deiri said.

"Our focus is on creating places that integrate into their surroundings and provide long-term value for residents, and the broader Lindfield community. Being within walking distance of the station ensures this project supports sustainable growth in the right locations."

Across its portfolio, Deicorp currently has 4,703 apartments under construction, playing a leading role in shaping connected, liveable communities across Sydney.

Its expanding portfolio of Metro-linked developments includes Tallawong Village, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kings-bay-village-five-dock-53-75-queens-road-five-dock-nsw-2046">Kings Bay Village</a> in Five Dock, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/hyde-metropolitan-sydney-133-141-liverpool-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Hyde Metropolitan</a> in Sydney CBD, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/falcon-alexander-crows-nest-8-alexander-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Falcon &amp; Alexander</a> in Crows Nest and Showground Village, Castle Hill.

Deicorp purchased the Beaconsfield Paradise site last year. Construction is scheduled to commence in Q2 of 2026 and will be completed in 2029.

In a joint venture with The Trump Organization, Australia developer Altus Property Group has announced plans to bring a Trump International Hotel &amp; Tower to the Gold Coast, marking the first Trump-branded project in Australia.

&nbsp;

"Trump International Hotel &amp; Tower, Gold Coast is our first official project in Australia and reflects our unwavering commitment to delivering world-class luxury experiences in iconic locations around the world," Eric Trump, Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization, said.

"This development exemplifies the Trump brand’s dedication to quality, sophistication, and unmatched service, and we are thrilled to bring this vision to the vibrant Gold Coast community."

The 91-storey building, which will become the tallest in Australia at 335 metres, will feature a&nbsp;285-room luxury hotel bearing the trademark Trump logo. It will also include 272 luxury residential apartments, a three-level podium with an exclusive Beach Club, and over 3,400 sqm of premium commercial, retail, and dining space, revitalizing the central Surfers Paradise precinct.

“Trump International Hotel &amp; Tower, Gold Coast will be a truly unique offering in the Australian market, bringing the prestige and allure of a world-class luxury brand,"&nbsp;Altus founder and chief executive David Young said.

"Altus Property Group is proud of its track record in delivering landmark developments across Australia, and our expertise ensures this project will be an outstanding success."

Trump Hotel heads for the Gold Coast to become Australia's tallest building

More than a century after the Corrimal Coke Works first opened in 1912, the industrial landmark that helped shape the suburb is being reinterpreted as a walkable residential neighbourhood, with Stage One of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-works-stage-one-27-railway-street-corrimal-nsw-2518">The Works</a> now underway at 27 Railway Street.

For 102 years, the site was central to <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/corrimal-nsw-2518">Corrimal</a>’s economic and social identity before operations ceased in 2014. Rather than erasing that legacy, developer Legacy Property has embedded it into the masterplan, retaining and reinterpreting elements such as the iconic 1912 brick chimney and sections of the original C1 Coke Oven Battery, alongside the adaptive reuse of the former powerhouse building.

Stage One will introduce 181 apartments across low-rise buildings, offering predominantly two and three-bedroom residences with completion targeted for mid-2027. The scale and configuration reflect a deliberate focus on owner-occupiers, targeting those seeking a lower-maintenance home in a prime location within the northern suburbs of Wollongong.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143415 project_image_fid=359833]

Apartments have been designed to maximise natural light and cross-ventilation, with floor-to-ceiling glazing extending living areas onto generous balconies. Engineered timber flooring, induction cooktops and 900mm ovens in larger residences support everyday functionality, while two interior palettes allow buyers to tailor finishes to their preferences. The material selection draws on a restrained coastal language, intended to connect homes to their surroundings rather than compete with them.

The Works forms part of a broader 18-hectare masterplan that will ultimately deliver around 550 dwellings, new parks, and a heritage precinct celebrating the site’s past. More than seven hectares are dedicated to open space, including Southern Park and a Village Green with community gardens and recreation areas. The creek corridor is being rehabilitated with 150,000 native plantings, restoring biodiversity to the site and softening landscape.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143415 project_image_fid=359841]

Positioned adjacent to Corrimal Station and within walking distance of Corrimal Town Centre, the precinct places daily essentials, rail connections and local retail within easy reach. Wollongong CBD, including the hospital, university and entertainment venues, sits approximately 6.5 kilometres to the south.

For buyers more familiar with North Wollongong, Corrimal offers a different proposition: a well-established coastal suburb framed by beaches to the east and the escarpment to the west, with a strong sense of local identity shaped in part by the former Coke Works. The Works seeks to reinforce that identity by creating a connected, walkable neighbourhood between coast and escarpment, rather than a standalone apartment complex.

Sustainability underpins the development approach. The Works is targeting Wollongong’s first 5-Star Green Star-rated community, with water-sensitive urban design, recycled materials and energy-efficient buildings integrated across the masterplan. For residents, these measures provide not only environmental benefits but also reduced operational costs and future resilience.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143415 project_image_fid=359842]

With construction commenced and display materials available to view, prospective buyers can now engage more directly with the project’s vision, reviewing floorplans, material selections and the broader masterplan in detail. For many local homeowners weighing a move, the opportunity to experience how heritage, landscape and contemporary design intersect may help bridge the gap between familiarity and the next chapter.

As Stage One progresses toward its mid-2027 completion, The Works represents a significant chapter in Corrimal’s evolution, transforming a site that once powered local industry into a walkable residential precinct designed for its next generation of residents.

When it comes to developing in Melb​ourne's Bayside region, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/lowe-living">Lowe Living</a> knows exactly what buyers want.

With a longstanding presence in the area and a string of sell-out projects, Lowe Living consistently delivers developments that are as sought-after as their predecessors.

Their latest instalment is in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/hampton-vic-3188">Hampton</a><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/hampton-east-vic-3188">&nbsp;East,</a> the same postcode where they have previously delivered Hampton Hill and Oceano. The developer-builder recently commenced construction on its newest project,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/marella-hampton-31-35-alicia-street-hampton-east-vic-3188">Marella</a>, a collection of 32 apartments just five minutes from the beach.

Site acquisition is paramount to success. Lowe Living rarely brings a building to market that isn’t within walking distance of essential amenities, whether it be the beach, a prominent retail strip, or a train station. Marella is no exception, located at its Alicia Street address, less than a kilometre from the retail heart of Hampton Street and Hampton Station.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358495]

Equally important to Lowe Living is the architecture.

For Marella, they appointed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cera-stribley-architects">Cera Stribley</a>, who explains that the architectural vision was to create a contemporary reinterpretation of the Californian bungalow, a style that’s iconic to Hampton’s heritage.

"By borrowing, abstracting, and reinterpreting elements of this quintessential style, such as strong datum lines, articulated columns, exposed structures, and roof tiles, our design strikes a balance between modernity and familiarity," says Cera Stribley.

"This approach ensures that the development is not only visually appealing but also contextually sensitive, resonating with Hampton's existing architectural landscape."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358499]

The building features terracotta brick, soft cream masonry, and exposed metal detailing, giving it a tactile presence that is intended to weather gently over time.

Internally, the focus on lasting quality continues, with two and three-bedroom residences anchored by sculptural stone kitchen islands, natural light, and clearly defined transitions between living, dining, and outdoor spaces.

The layouts have been carefully designed. Open-plan zones extend to private balconies, with light-filled interiors and generous kitchen proportions, supported by Miele wall ovens, induction cooktops, and integrated fridge-freezers. These are not small apartments rebranded as luxury; they have been designed at scale, with ample storage, hotel-style entry access, and secure basement parking provided as standard.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358492]

At the uppermost level, Marella’s Signature Collection penthouses offer city or bay views, large entertaining terraces (some with outdoor spas), and elevated finishes, including fully wrapped stone kitchen benches and a Liebherr wine fridge.

Flexible room arrangements allow for a fourth bedroom or secondary living space, sought-after by both empty nesters who want the space when family visits and families with older children.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358498]

A residents’ lounge on the ground floor reinforces the project’s small-community feel. With a fireplace, private dining area, and adjoining terrace, it’s one of several shared spaces that balance amenity with privacy and scale.

Construction has commenced, with completion expected in early 2027.

Penthouse Listing

The near 500 sqm in The Harrington Collection, the development in The Rocks by Golden Age Group and Hannas, has hit the market for $40 million.

The Harrington Collection consists of 58 premium apartments and terraces, as well as the 483 sqm penthouse, which spans two levels, gazing upon iconic views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House and Circular Quay.

The penthouse also includes its own 140 sqm private rooftop terrace. Construction on the project wrapped at the end of 2021.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5946 project_image_fid=195399]

The sprawling penthouse features three-bedrooms, all with their own ensuite, plus a multipurpose room on the upper level with the ability to be customised as a media room, home office or fourth bedroom according to the buyer’s desire.

The living spaces are equally generous, encompassing an expansive lounge area, dining space and fireplace, kitchen complete with premium Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances and full butler’s pantry, and a private lift to carry residents up to their private entertainment space where a wet bar, barbecue, landscaped gardens and a spa awaits.

The $350 million Harrington Collection by Hannas and Golden Age Group is one of the only large scale mixed-use residential projects to have gained government approval in the precinct in the last eight years, offering buyers a vanishingly rare opportunity to secure contemporary luxury in one of the city’s most esteemed pockets.

Highland has been appointed as lead sales agents on the jaw-dropping penthouse which officially hits the market on Thursday the 14th of April.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5946 project_image_fid=195402]

“We are very eager to open the doors to The Harrington Collection penthouse so that prospective buyers can experience first hand the level of luxury and vantage on offer,” David Highland said.

“This penthouse is the absolute pinnacle of luxury apartment living actualised among world class views. Never again will a product of this calibre be delivered to such an iconic Sydney destination, positioning the Harrington Penthouse as one of most exclusive residential addresses Sydney was ever welcomed,” he added.

Designed by international design firm FJMT, The Harrington has been influenced by the&nbsp;heritage elements of the Harrington Street site.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5946 project_image_fid=195403]

The $350 million Harrington collection encompasses 58 one, two and three-bedroom apartments atop a ground floor collection of terrace homes delivered in two design collections – a contemporary Manhattan Soho range, and a historic collection of refurbished terraces that originally occupied the site.

A selection of the display apartments within the development have been furnished and styled by Australia’s leading interior designer, David Hicks.

“This spate of high-end apartment sales that we have facilitated really underpins the rising trend towards luxury apartments as a primary residence,” Highland added.

“When you pair premium location with the highest standard of residential design, it becomes hard to conceive a better home than The Harrington Collection penthouse. This particular address merges seclusion with connectivity in a way that few projects can offer. The Rocks is a bustling area filled with character, without the raucous nightlife. The Harrington Collection is perfectly positioned so that its residents can slip in and out of the nearby amenities in complete privacy.”

Construction on the Harrington Collection is now complete, with 75 per cent of the 58 residences already sold to a blend of local business entrepreneurs and holiday homemakers.

Inside Hannas and Golden Age Group’s The Rocks’ $40 million penthouse 

One of the biggest trends in 2021 was developers going above and beyond to make sure their development was crowned by a luxury penthouse, with the majority expecting to see a sale in the double digits.

Given the shift in demand from one-bedroom holiday makers to the three-bedroom plus owner-occupier market, developers are ensuring there&#39;s high end penthouses or sub-penthouses, even in high density projects.

We&#39;ve had a look at some of the best penthouses on the market from the south of the Gold Coast in Coolangatta to Surfers Paradise and Chevron Island.

<h2>Sea, Burleigh Heads 
Developer: Forme 
Price: $16&nbsp;million</h2>

[smartcode_project:default project_id=99968 project_image_fid=188291]

There&#39;s a $16&nbsp;million price tag on the two-level penthouse crowning Forme&#39;s Koichi Takada-designed Sea, facing Burleigh Beach on The Esplanade.

The two-level space, with&nbsp;825&nbsp;sqm of space, one of the largest produced in Burleigh,&nbsp;has&nbsp;six&nbsp;bedrooms,&nbsp;six&nbsp;bathrooms, a gym,&nbsp;office and&nbsp;library, multiple kitchens and entertainment areas and a theatre.

There&#39;s a staircase leading to the exclusive rooftop, kitted out with a swimming pool,&nbsp;sun deck and alfresco&nbsp;kitchen.

<a href="/new-apartments/isabel-by-mosaic-96-the-esplanade-burleigh-heads"><img alt="" height="792" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/penthouse_pool_forme.jpg" width="1200" /></a>

&quot;It&#39;s&nbsp;our best penthouse ever produced&quot;, Forme managing director David Calvisi says.

Forme has had great success in the luxury apartment space, selling the penthouse in their nearby Norfolk, Goodwin Terrace development for $9 million, the most expensive apartment south of Mermaid Beach&nbsp;to settle. That&#39;s about half the size of the Sea penthouse on offer.

Koichi Takada also&nbsp;handled&nbsp;the design of Norfolk, which was a hit across the country. The curved facade even became one of the famous Bondi-based Aquabumps prints, going viral on Instagram and being featured by design blog Dezeen.

Glasshouse, a collection of just three house-sized apartments, will be crowned with a multi-level penthouse, featuring its own private rooftop with swimming pool.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=104773 project_image_fid=189487]

<h2>Project: The AU, Surfers Paradise 
Developer: ASF Group</h2>

ASF Group netted a near $9 million buyer for one of their tri-level penthouses. There are two penthouses in the boutique block of just 16 on The Esplanade, just across the road from the beach.

<a href="/new-apartments/the-au-52a-the-esplanade-surfers-paradise"><img alt="" height="800" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/the_au_pool_penthouse.jpg" width="1200" /></a>

Offering nearly 480 sqm of space, ASF Group offer a number of customisation options for the penthouse. There&#39;s potential for the third level to become an ocean view master suite, although the plans are already for four bedrooms.

ASF Group Marketing Director Daniel Fang said there&#39;s options for a yoga or meditation room, with full-width views of the beach. That or a cinema room, or even a private gym, are other options.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6762 project_image_fid=188843]

The penthouse starts from level 17 and has a&nbsp;separate&nbsp;private lift within to access the higher levels.&nbsp;Offering 16m frontage directly facing the ocean,&nbsp;the penthouses feature four bedrooms with the second level having the option of including a lap pool.

<h2>Project: Chevron One 
Developer: Bensons Property Group 
Price: $15 million</h2>

Late last year the Melbourne-based Bensons Property Group released their higher levels to the market of their Chevron Island tower, Chevron One.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6515 project_image_fid=174033]

To be the only true high-rise tower on Chevron One having been approved before stricter height limits were set on the exclusive Gold Coast island, Chevron One will soar 41 levels in to the sky.

The special penthouse crowning the development isn&#39;t actually for sale. That two-level space,&nbsp;spanning levels 40 and 41 with&nbsp;nearly 2,000 sqm of living space, the Gold Coast&#39;s largest ever penthouse, will be&nbsp;retained by&nbsp;Bensons&nbsp;Property Group&#39;s Chairman&nbsp;Elias Jreissati.

But the subpenthouse, spanning nearly 1,000 sqm of space, is up for grabs. Priced at just shy of $15 million, the penthouse will have five bedrooms, five bathrooms and garaging for four cars.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6515 project_image_fid=174034]

<h2>Project: 123OBR 
Developer: Bottega Group</h2>

The boutique 13-apartment Broadbeach development, 123OBR, is capped with a sprawling two-level penthouse, with 529 sqm of internal living space.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=31666 project_image_fid=184148]

Bottega Group Director Nick Malloch says&nbsp;123OBR&rsquo;s penthouse is the ultimate experience of luxury beachside living on the Gold Coast.

&ldquo;123OBR&rsquo;s penthouse is a unique opportunity in that every element of the design has been carefully curated to speak to the opulence and intrinsic beauty of Gold Coast living at its very best,&rdquo; says Malloch. Elegant gallery wall corridors, floor to ceiling glazing in the living and dining space, a feature fireplace and oversized master retreat complete the experience.

<h2>Project: Miles Residences, Kirra Beach 
Developer: KTQ 
Price: $16.75 million</h2>

Last year KTQ sold out Miles Residences, all 118 apartments in their first stage of the $350 million redevelopment of the Kirra Beach Hotel. But they saved something special for 2022.

They&#39;ve just launched the two-level penthouse, with a price tag of $16.75 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27575 project_image_fid=187456]

The 760 sqm split-level penthouse will be made up of five ensuited bedrooms, a state-of-the-art gym, home office, three living areas, and a study.

The heart of the heart of the home if the open plan kitchen, living and dining area, which also homes a bar.

The penthouse also features a rooftop entertaining deck, accessed by private lift and featuring a private pool, as well as offering unobstructed views north across&nbsp;Kirra Beach&nbsp;to Surfers Paradise&nbsp;and south to Snapper Rocks.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27575 project_image_fid=187457]

<h2>Project: DE-LUXE, Burleigh Heads 
Developer: Weiya Holdings 
Price: $23 million</h2>

The priciest penthouse to hit the market last year was the sprawling apartment atop the 14-level DE-LUXE in Burleigh Heads.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=102645 project_image_fid=178449]

There will be a number of living areas, a walk-in wine cellar and whisky room, a luxury cinema, expansive library, a sauna and steam room, a private gym, and a sky garden feature.

One of the most striking features will be the glass pool next to the living space.

Patrick Pancur has been handling the sales at DE-LUXE, which is all but sold out.

The Soul, Surfers Paradise penthouse has been listed for May 28 auction by tech businessman Andrew Koloadin.

Sandy Hill Penthouse in Melbourne's bayside suburb of Sandringham offers some of the most varied amenities within just two kilometres from its sought-after Bay Road location.

The project is being delivered by Blueprint Projects, with design by architecture firm Watson Young Architects and construction by Guestbuild.

The amenities start immediately without leaving the building, with an IGA conveniently located on the ground level of the block.

Heading east, or right, out of the front doors down Bay Road, immediately next door is the lush Bay Road Reserve and Bay Road Heathland Sanctuary, the latter protected by the City of Sandringham council as it is one of the last remaining areas of the iconic "Sandringham Flora" that once covered Melbourne's south east.

Just over 500 metres away is Fitness First, although there's a resident's only fully-equipped gym and infinity pool in the block.

Further east but still on Bay Road is Bad Shepherd Brewing Co., on the corner of Bay and Reserve Road, which is just 1.3 kilometres away.

At the end of Bay Road is Westfield Southland which homes around 400 retailers.

Coming out of Sandy Hill Penthouse and turning left to the west there's a 7-eleven on the way to a short two-kilometre trip to Sandringham Station, which from there is less than a 30-minute commute into the city centre.

That's located at the south end of Sandringham Beach where there's a string of near beachside restaurants and cafe's including The Sandy, Port of Call and Black Squirrel Cafe.

Just one street behind Sandy Hill Penthouse is Sandringham College, more greenery with Merindah Park which is a few minutes away you'll find a mini golf course and a golf driving range.

The 11th floor sub penthouse apartment at 150 Clarendon, encompassing more than 1,400 square metres of space, has been repriced down from its initial $46 million asking price.

Despite the white flag being flown, The Age reported its new price is "still pretty strong."

It is not the penthouse which was retain by the Salta development company Tarascio family who sold the sub-penthouse apartment off the plan in 2007 for $19.4 million.

It replaced the former Mercy Hospital.

Positioned overlooking Fitzroy Gardens with three-metre ceilings, <a href="https://whitefoxrealestate.com.au/property/1101150-clarendon-street-east-melbourne/" target="_blank">the home has enormous proportions</a>.

The master bedroom is a hidden retreat with north and east-facing views to maximise sunrise and morning light.

It comes with what's marketed as a "decadent" ensuite with spa.

There is a private west-facing office, study, a further three bedrooms with ensuites, private cinema, bar, and meditation room.

The marketing includes a video of the vendor, <a href="https://whitefoxrealestate.com.au/video/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Margaret Lou</a> who called the home “one of the best apartments in the world”.

“I looked everywhere, London, New York, Los Angeles, Shanghai, Beijing, everywhere,” Ms Lou said.

The property is held in the name of Hong Kong-based corporate vehicle Lou Property Holdings Ltd and settled in 2010 for $19,359,200.

The 1101/150 Clarendon Street, East Melbourne sub-penthouse repriced $10 million less than initial $46 million hopes

The Gold Coast's first penthouse has been sold at auction.
Six bidders competed for the <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-qld-surfers+paradise-131241542" target="_blank">four-bedroom apartment</a> in Surfers Paradise’s heritage listed Kinkabool building.
The 10-storey Hanlan Street building was described as a “giant” when it was built in 1960.
<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/2019/6/28/surfers%201.jpg" alt="">
The four bedroom skyhome fetched $450,000 under the hammer last Saturday.
The Kinkabool building has recently had a makeover.
Surfers Paradise First National agent Bob Rollington told the Gold Coast Bulletin the Queensland Heritage Register lists the building as a place of significance because it was the beginning of residential towers on the Coast.
“Built in 1959-1960 at Surfers Paradise, the home-unit building known as Kinkabool was the Gold Coast’s first high-rise and one of Queensland’s earliest, built shortly after Torbreck was completed in Brisbane in 1960,” the description reads.
The report said the building was the starting point for developments of its type, which kicked off tourism in Queensland and gave the Gold Coast an international reputation.
“Kinkabool also illustrates a significant aspect of the evolving character of the quintessential Australian beach holiday,” the site stated.

Main Beach, Gold Coast penthouse see's its price reduced from $9.75 million

The penthouse at Darnley Hall, Elizabeth Bay has returned to the market.
It was previously briefly listed by Paul Longmuir and his wife Elain Wei Ah Kwan in 2016 with $10 million hopes.
<a href="https://www.allhomes.com.au/sale/12-12-onslow-avenue-elizabeth-bay-inner-sydney-176372396" target="_blank">The international style penthouse</a> last sold nine years ago for $8.1 million.
It was one of the homes where the former Treasurer Joe Hockey signalled forced divestment after the owners came forward in an amnesty on supposed purchases that breached our FIRB laws. 
The Longmuirs have since spent $16 million buying in Bellevue Hill, fully complying with foreign investment rules, and it seems their initial purchase has now been signed off as ridgy didge too.
The penthouse renovation was overseen by the interior designer Tonka Andjelkovic.
