<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/broadbeach-qld-4218">Broadbeach</a> offers plenty of reasons to live vertically, but moving from a substantial family home into an apartment can expose the compromises of high-density living. Privacy, room for guests and usable living space tend to matter more when an apartment is intended as a permanent home rather than an occasional coastal base.

A typical residential floor at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-eveleigh-broadbeach-7-9-surf-parade-broadbeach-qld-4218">The Eveleigh</a>, on Surf Parade,&nbsp;contains just four apartments. The 94-residence development by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/hirsch-faigen">Hirsch &amp; Faigen</a> is predominantly made up of expansive three-bedroom homes, with a limited collection of half-floor penthouses above.

Across the apartment floors, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> has used the relatively limited number of residences to give each home greater access to natural light and outlook. Living spaces extend towards full-height glazing, while a series of bay windows frame selected views across the Pacific Ocean, city and hinterland rather than treating the building edge as a continuous wall of glass.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360965]

“The apartment floors deliver a collection of homes that embrace controlled outlook via a series of bay windows deliberately framing moments of view,” Rothelowman Director Kim Lowman said.

From outside, those projecting forms contribute to the tower’s faceted profile. Strong horizontal and vertical elements establish its proportions, while the changing position of the sun alters the light, shadow and reflection across the façade throughout the day.

The same attention moves inside the apartments, where the material palette combines warm timber, natural stone, metallic detailing and softer curved forms. Kitchens sit within the main living zone, with stone island benches, integrated joinery and European appliances, before the living areas extend towards the glazing and the outlook.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360981]

Three genuine bedrooms provide room to accommodate family and guests, while two secure car spaces and storage address some of the practical considerations that can become more noticeable when moving from a larger home. Feedback from the display suite has centred on the warmth and restraint of the interiors, with buyers commenting that the residences feel like homes rather than conventional coastal apartments.

A limited collection of half-floor penthouses occupies the upper levels, increasing the scale of the living spaces and adding private balconies and elevated finishes. From this position, the outlook extends between the ocean and hinterland.

Outside the private residences, The Eveleigh separates its shared spaces between the podium and rooftop. The podium is centred on wellness, with subtropical landscaping surrounding a swimming pool and pool terrace, yoga garden, private gymnasium, sauna and hot and cold plunge facilities. Landscaped retreats and pavilions provide additional places to sit away from the main recreation areas.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360966]

Higher in the building, a rooftop pavilion and private dining suite sit alongside resident lounge, barbecue and outdoor dining areas, opening towards panoramic views across the ocean, city and hinterland.

“Buyers are no longer just looking for an apartment, but a lifestyle where they can relax, reset, and enjoy a balanced way of living,” Hirsch &amp; Faigen Director of Sales Matt George said.

Interest to date has come from established owner-occupiers and interstate lifestyle purchasers, including buyers planning a future move to the Gold Coast. Many are coming from larger homes and want to reduce ongoing maintenance without giving up space for family and guests, privacy, two car spaces or the ability to entertain at home.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360969]

Much of that daily life can also take place beyond the building without requiring a drive. Kurrawa Beach and Pratten Park are an easy walk from Surf Parade, while Pacific Fair, Oracle Boulevard, The Oasis, restaurants, cafés, entertainment and public transport are also within walking distance.

The Eveleigh is Hirsch &amp; Faigen's fourth Gold Coast development since entering the market in 2021, following The Hemingway at Palm Beach, The Emerson at Kirra and Yves at Mermaid Beach. Each of the preceding projects sold out before completion.

“Broadbeach had been on our radar throughout our time operating on the Gold Coast,” the developer said. “Following our projects in Palm Beach, Kirra and Mermaid Beach, Broadbeach represented the natural next step for the business.”

The Surf Parade site brought together proximity to the beach, protected coastal outlooks and walkability to dining, shopping and recreation. Hirsch &amp; Faigen also identified the street as an emerging premium residential address, with enough separation from Broadbeach's busier destinations to retain a quieter environment at home.

The Eveleigh is now under construction by Maxcon, with completion forecast for mid-2028. Three-bedroom residences are currently available from $2.87 million.

The Eveleigh brings house-like apartments to Broadbeach

A long-stalled Campbelltown development site is back in play, with new plans for 139 apartments set to supersede a mixed-use scheme approved almost a decade ago but never built.

The new proposal for 28 Cordeaux Street would deliver 116 market and 23 affordable apartments in a part 14-storey building, bringing a substantial new project into a Campbelltown market where new apartment supply remains limited.

Plans have been filed over the 3,092 sqm corner site at Moore-Oxley Street, around 600 metres from Campbelltown Railway Station and the city-centre retail core.

The site already carries a mixed-use residential approval dating to 2016. Doroch Architects has now been engaged on a larger replacement scheme, which is progressing as a State Significant Development Application following a Housing Delivery Authority determination in August 2025.

The apartment mix comprises 39 one-bedroom, 72 two-bedroom and 28 three-bedroom residences. Two-bedroom apartments make up just over half of the project, while three-bedroom homes account for 20 per cent.

<img alt="First look: New 139-apartment plans revive long-stalled Campbelltown city centre site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="136dd5b9-3791-4da6-9e31-76f533f5b4de" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Campbelltown%20da2.png?VersionId=LgOSy9nwf5u.MGswBBwaGGxuX8QpHSl_" />

Of the 139 apartments, 23 will be delivered as affordable housing under the in-fill affordable housing provisions of the Housing SEPP. The affordable component represents 15 per cent of the residential gross floor area and will be managed by a registered Community Housing Provider.

Doroch has sought to break the scale of the building into two distinct elements, with a masonry podium of around four storeys establishing the street edge before the residential tower steps back above.

The corner position has shaped that approach. Cordeaux Street faces toward the commercial and civic centre, while Moore-Oxley Street leads into the lower-scale residential neighbourhood to the south, and the design verification report describes the site as "bridging the commercial core to the north and established residential areas to the south."

The podium will be expressed predominantly in face brick, while the upper levels shift to brushed and grooved concrete cladding with darker metal detailing. Recessed sections, deep balcony edges and landscaping break down the upper form, with an approximately 11.8-metre setback to the northern boundary addressing the adjoining St Peters Anglican School.

Campbelltown has been starved of new residential developments in the last decade.

The only other notable development set to come to market this year is ALAND's Queen Square, a mixed-use precinct on over two hectares that will comprise apartments above a vibrant ground-level retail and hospitality dining precinct.

First Look: Sherlock Construction pitches apartments for low-rise Deception Bay

Queensland builder-developer MAYD has revealed the first look at its major North Kirra beachfront development, lodging amended plans that reduce the number of apartments and increase the proportion of larger residences.

The project is planned across a substantial 4,742 sqm amalgamated site spanning seven lots at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/2-6-pacific-parade-bilinga-qld-4225">2-6 Pacific Parade</a> and 27-33 Golden Four Drive in Bilin​ga, directly opposite Nor​th Kirra Beach.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mayd-group">MAYD</a> secured the site for $32.5 million in 2025, in what was one of the Gold Coast's largest property transactions of the year.

The development will be delivered across two stages, with the first stage carrying an estimated gross realisation value of around $360 million.

The latest amendments seek to reduce the overall apartment count and shift the project further toward the owner-occupier market, with larger residences designed for buyers wanting considerably more space than traditionally offered in a beachfront apartment.

The residential mix will include townhomes, oversized two-bedroom apartments, substantial three-bedroom residences and four-bedroom homes.

MAYD has appointed Cera Stribley to lead the architecture and interiors, with the Melbourne-based design practice drawing on the beachfront setting through a series of ocean-facing terraces and heavily landscaped balconies.

Strong horizontal forms and curved balconies will define the exterior, with subtropical landscaping integrated throughout the building to soften the built form and increase the connection between the residences and the beachfront.

The project will also include an extensive collection of resident wellness and lifestyle facilities, continuing the broader shift across the Gold Coast's luxury apartment market toward larger homes supported by resort-style amenity.

<img alt="MAYD" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d1bcbb05-e659-4b47-8bd4-1e595315e2ad" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-27%20at%202.05.03%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=jj0XEud1X1DuLt7_KyElhjMdZGOXmLHP" />

MAYD Founder Todd Mould said North Kirra was increasingly appealing to buyers attracted to the more established, lower-density character of the southern Gold Coast.

"North Kirra presents one of the most compelling luxury residential opportunities currently emerging in Australia, combining absolute beachfront with the character and authenticity that buyers are increasingly seeking, and the same sense of tight-knit community that defined Burleigh and Currumbin perhaps 10 or 15 years ago," Mould said.

"With Gold Coast Airport on its doorstep, it also offers a level of accessibility that broadens its appeal across almost every market demographic."

The project comes as the southern Gold Coast continues to attract an increasing share of high-end apartment development and buyer activity.

Kirra in particular has emerged as one of the region's more tightly held beachfront markets, with its relatively low-density character, established surf and hospitality scene and proximity to Gold Coast Airport differentiating it from the higher-density markets further north.

Mould said those characteristics had informed the approach MAYD and Cera Stribley had taken to the project.

"We've worked closely with Cera Stribley to create a vision that is deeply connected to its surroundings," he said.

"Inspired by the coastline itself, the architecture has been shaped around space, privacy and resort-style living, creating a collection of homes that reflects the next generation of luxury on the southern Gold Coast."

MOTIV Managing Director Carly Cottam, who has been appointed to market the project, said buyer attention had continued to move south along the Gold Coast.

"Purchasers who may once have defaulted to Broadbeach, Main Beach or Surfers Paradise are increasingly recognising the value of a genuine beachfront location that offers lower density, strong amenity and a more established sense of community," Cottam said.

"Kirra has a powerful combination of growing demand and genuine scarcity. Beachfront supply is inherently constrained, the area remains relatively low density, and buyers are increasingly placing a premium on locations that feel established, uncrowded and authentic rather than heavily developed."

Cottam said the proximity to Gold Coast Airport was also proving increasingly important for interstate and second-home buyers.

"Being minutes from Gold Coast Airport makes it particularly compelling for interstate buyers, frequent travellers and second-home purchasers who can access an authentic coastal lifestyle almost immediately after stepping off a flight."

The acquisition takes MAYD's active development portfolio to more than $500 million, with the North Kirra project representing one of its largest undertakings to date.

MAYD is targeting an early 2027 launch.

First look at MAYD's North Kirra mixed-use precinct

<main data-perf-region="main">
Castle Hill, the longtime hub of the Hills District, has been one of the major beneficiaries of Sydney's Metro expansion, with improved connectivity helping drive continued population growth, development and buyer demand across the Hills District.

But despite that growth, the suburb has seen relatively few major new apartment projects brought to market over the past 18 months.

Hills District developer Reve Group is looking to fill that gap with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/nova-r-ve-castle-hill-2-garthowen-crescent-castle-hill-nsw-2154">Nova Rêve</a>, a major new mixed-use precinct on the corner of Garthowen Crescent and Old Castle Hill Road, a short walk from Castle Hill Metro Station and Castle Towers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377679]

The project will comprise three residential towers alongside a hotel, restaurants, cafes and a skybar, more than 1,600 sqm of ground-floor retail and almost an acre of landscaped gardens.

It represents the largest project undertaken by Reve Group, the development arm of the Kassis family, which has been building across the Hills District for more than 30 years through Kassis Homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377675]

Nova Rêve also represents a significant step up from the family's first apartment development, Grand Rêve, which was delivered nearby on Garthowen Crescent.

Grand Rêve introduced larger, house-like apartment layouts and premium inclusions including Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances to the Castle Hill market.

Nova Rêve takes that approach to a precinct scale, combining the residential component with hospitality, retail and substantial public and resident landscaping.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377685]

Reve Group Managing Director Sam Kassis said the project reflected the family's three decades of building in the Hills, which has evolved from trophy homes on quarter-acre blocks to larger-scale apartment development.

"Grand Rêve was our first apartment project here and it showed us what this pocket of Castle Hill could be. Nova Rêve is the refinement of that idea: not just apartments, but a place the whole suburb can use," Kassis said.

A key part of that approach is the hotel, which has been designed to operate as an amenity for the wider Castle Hill community rather than solely hotel guests.

It will include restaurants, cafes, skybars and all-day dining, alongside conference and event facilities catering to business functions, community groups and private events.

At ground level, more than 1,600 sqm of shops and cafes will open onto the surrounding streets and landscaped areas.

Almost an acre of gardens designed by Land and Form Studios will run through the precinct, incorporating pathways, seating, barbecue areas and children's play spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377680]

Reve Group's Romio Georges said creating an active ground plane had been central to the planning of Nova Rêve.

"There are gardens with pathways, barbecues, seating and play areas, shops and cafes opening onto the street, and a hotel with restaurants and a skybar that anyone in Castle Hill can walk into," Georges said.

The project's elevated position on one of Sydney's highest ridgelines will also provide apartments with outlooks toward the Sydney skyline, surrounding parkland and the Blue Mountains.

More than 80 per cent of the apartments will occupy corner positions, with Turner responsible for both the architecture and interiors.

Sanctuary Cove

<html><body>
Cove House, on the Gold Coast's Sanctuary Cove, has been listed for sale.
The Cove House at Sanctuary Cove has hit the market after taking out the national home building industry’s top prize at the 2020 HIA-CSR Australian Housing Awards in May.
Owner Tracey Morland engaged her cousin, architect Justin Humphrey, to design the subtropical waterfront home.
<img src="https://www.realestate.com.au/blog/images/1280x720-fit,progressive/2020/11/26060047/capi_e19410e9de667619c8cb260d565b5681_7940fe70a4a2267361962608ec94ecfc.jpeg">
The riverfront home at 7366 Marine Drive was built in 2018 by BJ Millar Constructions using natural materials of concrete, timber and stone, and includes a large master bedroom and ensuite, two guest bedrooms – each with a bathroom – and a home office.
The north-facing residence incorporates garden atriums throughout the interior design, to separate living spaces while connecting to the exterior environment.
<img src="https://www.realestate.com.au/blog/images/1280x720-fit,progressive/2020/11/26060043/capi_e19410e9de667619c8cb260d565b5681_9c66a7c167dd8cc6cbfc978b282f84a1.jpeg">
Mrs Morland told REA that she listed the property for sale after purchasing a vacant riverfront site at Bayside Close, Sanctuary Cove, where she and Mr Humphrey will embark on another project.
She described the new project as, “one last hurrah”, following the thrill of The Cove House being named Australian Home of the Year, as well as picking up this year’s award for the HIA Australian Custom Built Home.
The house occupies a 966 sqm lot and exists almost completely self-sufficiently on a 15 kw solar system, Tesla energy storage batteries and a submerged rainwater tank under the driveway.
It is marketed by Matt Gates of Ray White Prestige Gold Coast Surfers Paradise.

Selling Houses Australia's Andrew Winter sells Sanctuary Cove home

Selling Houses Australia guru Andrew Winter and wife Caroline are yet to sell their Gold Coast home after it was passed in on a vendor bid at weekend auction.
The popular renovation show host had previously moved on from two agency's who were unsuccessful selling the Sanctuary Cove home.
It was initially listed for $3,995,000 in January.
Amir Mian Prestige agents Charlon Delos Angeles and Alister Billingsley had the weekend auction, with seven interested parties, according to the Gold Coast Bulletin.
It was passed in with a vendor bid of $3 million.

The Winter's secured the home in 2017.
It was always going to be a renovation project for the couple, who paid $1.9 million for the Tuscan-inspired home.
There's no confirmation, but previous listings suggests the home was renovated by the Selling Houses Australia duo of interior designer Shayna Blaze and landscape gardener Charlie Albone, just away from the TV screens.
Previous marketing has stated the home was subject to a renovation under the supervision of an architect, interior designer and landscape designers.

The property was transformed from a dated holiday home to an all-white villa with a terracotta roof.
It is now a five bedroom contemporary home.
Each of the five bedrooms, one occupying the self-contained pool house, open to the resort-style swimming pool, surrounding by tropical palms.

Andrew Winter gets third agent and sets auction for redundant Sanctuary Cove home

Selling Houses Australia and property guru Andrew Winter and wife Caroline are selling their Sanctuary Cove home on the Gold Coast.

They&#39;ve renovated the Marine Drive East home over their brief ownership, having paid $1.9 million for the Tuscan inspired home two years ago with a renovation in mind.

Now they&#39;re asking $3.95 million for the waterfront with 23 metres of river frontage and an eight metre pontoon.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6515 project_image_fid=68835]

Set on a 950 sqm block, the home is built around a central courtyard with a 15 metre swimming pool. Every one of the five bedrooms have direct access to the pool.

The fifth bedroom sits in a self-contained pool house.

<img alt="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2019/1/21/Winter2.jpg" />

The listing subtly nods to a Selling Houses Australia renovation. It suggests the home was subject to a renovation under the supervision of an architect, interior designer and landscape designers.

Queensland Sotheby&#39;s agents John and Marie Manning, who sold the Winter&#39;s the home, have the listing again.

Last year following the renovation, Winter told realestate.com.au the home embracing the Queensland lifestyle.

&ldquo;It&rsquo;s got massive bi-fold doors, high ceilings &mdash; you throw the doors open and you&rsquo;re right on the water &mdash; it&rsquo;s got a pool, you get cross-ventilation, you get enough sun but not too much,&quot; the English born TV presenter said.

&ldquo;For a Pom, it&rsquo;s embracing the climate that we live in and the outdoor lifestyle.

&quot;It&rsquo;s always talked about and that&rsquo;s why we live here.&rdquo;

Winter reshuffled the couple&#39;s <a href="/news/property-guru-andrew-winter-reshuffles-his-seq-portfolio">Queensland property portfolio</a> last year.

Car dealer Phil McCarroll is selling his Gold Coast holiday home.
The Sydney-based McCarroll paid $2.4 million for <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-qld-sanctuary+cove-129235750" target="_blank">the Sanctuary Cove home</a> in 2008.
McCarroll has fully renovated the waterfront over his decade long ownership.
There are four bedrooms, split into two wings, and a central living space that opens to a terrace that adjoins the tennis court on its 1,740 sqm block.
An alfresco entertaining area with built in barbecue looks over the 11 metre infinity edge pool, etched with the term 'La dolce vita', translated to the good life. 
Queensland Sotheby's agents John and Marie Manning are seeking $3.95 million.
Last year McCarroll spent $6 million on Craboon, the luxury 1920s stone cottage at Palm Beach north of Sydney while retaining a Duffys Forest acreage.

Sanctuary Cove has gained a global market reach through Queensland Sotheby’s International Realty.
Long-term Sanctuary Cove residents and real estate agents, John and Marie Manning have joined Queensland Sotheby’s International Realty (pictured above) heading the new Sanctuary Cove, Hope Island office.
For over a decade, the couple have operated Manning Real Estate as Sanctuary Cove specialists.
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2018/7/6/SC%20cove%203.JPG" alt="">
Sanctuary Cove (pictured above) is a self-contained gated community situated on 474 hectares and located on Hope Island, Queensland.
Within the waterfront development, there are diverse land, apartment, villa and house offerings.
Community amenities include two 18-hole championship golf courses, a 293-berth marina with superyacht facilities, vibrant shopping and dining precincts, country club facilities, 24-hour land and water security, and the five-star InterContinental Resort Hotel.
<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/2018/7/6/SC%20cove%202.jpg" alt="">
Sanctuary Cove is exempt from Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB) approval and all restrictions allowing non-Australian citizens to buy residential property, meaning foreign investors and buyers do not need approval and reserve the right to sell to anyone.
Sanctuary Cove recently received the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA), 2018 National Award of Excellence as well as the award for the best Master Planned Development. 
“Once you move to Sanctuary Cove, you will never want to leave," Marie Manning said.
Sotheby’s International Realty also opened a Port Douglas office led by <a href="/news/sothebys-appoints-barbara-wolveridge-as-director-in-tropical-north-queensland">Barbara Wolveridge</a> earlier this year.

Mulpha Australia has began due diligence on The Palms Golf Course at Sanctuary Cove ahead of a potential buy-back, having sold it in 2007.
Mulpha's investment in Sanctuary Cove is valued at more than $250 million. It has achieved in excess of $800 million in property sales
They began selling the homes in 2005.
The development giant have entered into a memorandum of understanding to complete the due diligence process ahead of a formal sales agreement with the Sanctuary Cove Golf &amp; Country Club.
Mulpha Australia Limited CEO Greg Shaw they are pleased with the proposed deal.
"We are delighted that Mulpha has entered into an agreement in principal with the Sanctuary Cove Golf &amp; Country Club to purchase the assets of The Palms Golf Course, The Sanctuary Cove Country Club and half of the maintenance facilities,” said Shaw.
Shaw, who has extensive executive management experience in the tourism, sport and leisure industry, said the assets required ongoing infrastructure investment.
“Mulpha Australia was approached by the Club and had started these discussions more than a year ago and it made perfect business sense, given Mulpha Australia’s long-term commitment to Sanctuary Cove, Australia’s premier integrated leisure and lifestyle community.”
Sanctuary Cove Golf and Country Club President Mick McDonald said the discussions have been ongoing for over a year.
“Over a year ago the Sanctuary Cove Golf and Country Club Holdings Ltd Board instigated discussions with the Company’s major shareholder Mulpha Australia, to investigate and establish a pathway to overcome significant challenges regarding the future.
“The Board are excited that this outcome, if accepted by shareholders at the upcoming Extraordinary General Meeting, will give the Club the required financial stability to allow the opportunity to significantly upgrade The Pines Golf Course, and return it to arguably one of the best private and exclusive golf facilities in the country,” Mr McDonald said.
The agreement is subject to due diligence and a vote in the coming weeks by Sanctuary Cove Golf &amp; Country Club shareholders.
