Abadeen has released the whole-floor penthouse crowning its recently completed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/park-residences-cremorne-2-sutherland-street-cremorne-nsw-2090">Park Residences</a> development in Cremorne, bringing the near-300 sqm residence to market for the first time.

Occupying the entire top floor of the boutique Lower North Shore development, the penthouse includes 221 sqm of internal living and a 74 sqm wraparound terrace, with a prized north-facing aspect taking in views across Middle Harbour.

The residence has been completed and fully furnished following a collaboration between Abadeen Executive Chairman Justin Brown and internationally recognised interior designer Jack Freeman, Founder and Managing Director of FREEMAN &amp; CO.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen">Abadeen</a> and Freeman approached the penthouse as a finished home, sourcing furniture, artwork, lighting and objects from Australia and overseas.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378718]

Pieces from Parisian design house Pierre Augustin Rose sit alongside contemporary artworks and bespoke lighting, with Freeman drawing on recent visits to PAD Paris and Salone del Mobile Milano for the final collection.

Brown said the aim was to create a penthouse that felt more like a large-scale private home than a traditional apartment.

"The experience begins the moment the lift doors open. You're welcomed into an elegant dining room before the home opens into an extraordinary living space framed by sun-drenched harbour views.

"Every time someone walks through the front door they pause. It's not just the view, it's the incredible sense of space, the warmth created by the northern sunlight that fills the interiors, and the way every room connects so effortlessly.

"It has all the proportions of a luxury home, while delivering the effortless lifestyle and personalised experience of living in a world-class six-star hotel, combined with the simplicity and convenience of apartment living."

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378713]

A secure lift provides exclusive access to the penthouse level, opening to a dedicated arrival foyer and dining area before the residence expands into its main living and entertaining spaces.

Floor-to-ceiling glazing runs across the northern side of the home, connecting the interiors with the terrace and Middle Harbour outlook.

The penthouse also features a fireplace and substantial chef's kitchen, while the wraparound terrace has been designed to accommodate both everyday outdoor living and larger-scale entertaining.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378720]

Freeman said the interiors had been deliberately kept restrained to complement the scale, natural light and outlook already established by the architecture.

"The penthouse is a serene study in quiet luxury," Freeman said.

"The interior pairs soft, sculptural forms with warm timber, pale stone and a restrained neutral palette. Curated artwork and metallic accents add depth, while abundant natural light creates a calm, effortlessly refined atmosphere. In my world, less is always more."

Freeman said the approach was centred around collecting individual pieces rather than simply decorating the apartment.

"Every material, every object and every piece of furniture has been curated with intention. I am a true believer in collecting versus decorating.

"The architecture already provided extraordinary natural light, remarkable volume and an uninterrupted connection to Middle Harbour. Our role was to complement those qualities with unique one-of-a-kind pieces of fine art and collectible design sourced from recent travels around the world."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114246 project_image_fid=378694]

Among the collection are solid bronze sculptures by Lorenzo Quinn, alongside a curated crystalware collection and pieces sourced from international design fairs.

Park Residences sits opposite Cammeray Golf Club, Cammeray Croquet Club and Grand Slam Tennis Cammeray, around 300 metres from Neutral Bay Village and its established collection of restaurants, cafés and retail.

Brown said the combination of a whole-floor floorplan, northern aspect and proximity to Neutral Bay was becoming increasingly difficult to find on the Lower North Shore.

"Completed whole-floor penthouses with a sun-drenched north-facing aspect and sweeping Middle Harbour views are exceptionally rare," Brown said.

"Add a quiet position opposite golf, croquet and tennis facilities, a level walk to Neutral Bay Village and only minutes to the CBD, and you have a lifestyle that's incredibly difficult to replicate.

"This is a home that offers the privacy and generosity of a luxury residence together with the convenience of one of Sydney's best-connected harbourside locations."

The penthouse will be exclusively marketed by SRM Residential.

Abadeen unveils signature penthouse at Park Residences in Cremorne

New Brisbane developer Dalcott has unveiled Marrone, the first of three residential projects it is planning in and around Browning Street in South Brisbane.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/marrone-south-brisbane-39-browning-street-south-brisbane-qld-4101">Marrone</a> will comprise 97 predominantly two- and three-bedroom apartments, with larger residences aimed squarely at the owner-occupier market.

The project will sit in a quiet pocket of South Brisbane between South Bank and West End, close to the restaurants, cultural attractions and riverfront amenity that have driven the suburb's continued transformation.

Dalcott is targeting buyers looking for more space and amenity than has traditionally been offered in the inner-city apartment market, particularly downsizers and professionals wanting to remain close to the city.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149951 project_image_fid=377072]

Resident facilities will be concentrated around an extensive rooftop amenity offering, including a swimming pool, spa, infrared sauna, warm and cold magnesium plunge pools, private lounge, dining room and outdoor entertaining areas.

Dalcott Managing Director Lachlan Cottee said South Brisbane's combination of lifestyle, connectivity and established character had been central to the approach to Marrone.

“South Brisbane offers a combination of lifestyle, connectivity and character that’s difficult to replicate elsewhere in Brisbane,” Cottee said.

“Our focus has been on creating homes that feel connected to that environment while providing the level of design, functionality and quality that today's owner-occupiers expect.”

The residences will feature an expressive material palette. Italian Calacatta Viola marble, known for its deep burgundy veining, will be paired with aged brass tapware, Chestnut engineered timber flooring and Tuscan Oak joinery.

<img alt="Marrone" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="b8d833da-3b30-496a-ae30-07bdff371b50" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%2010.52.35%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=P6DAgOfaQzIXljKKK5j3e5NhWtrHIu9G" />

Bathrooms will feature Nara Japanese ceramics and glass bricks, while clay, walnut and brass lighting will be used throughout the apartments.

Dalcott has appointed Realm Projects, led by Managing Director Shane Foley, to handle sales and marketing following previous sold-out collaborations between the groups.

Foley said the Brisbane apartment buyer had become increasingly focused on the quality of the home itself rather than simply securing an inner-city address.

“We expect to see strong demand from buyers who still want all the advantages of inner-city living but aren’t prepared to compromise on the quality of their home,” Foley said.

“Many will be downsizers looking to leave behind the maintenance of a traditional family home without giving up the space they enjoy, while others are likely to be professionals wanting a residence that reflects the way they live today.”

“Marrone responds directly to that demand, with generous floorplans, exceptional resident amenity and a location that places some of Brisbane’s best dining, entertainment and cultural attractions within walking distance.”

<img alt="Marrone" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="61f7b22f-899e-4c0f-940a-7d3ab1bfb93a" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%2010.52.44%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=PvN1JYxBgUpyCB7efKo52WGdSDs9nmim" />

Marrone will be the first project delivered as part of Dalcott's broader investment in the precinct.

It will be followed by La Terra, a boutique project comprising penthouse-style, single-level apartments on a northeast corner site with extensive resident amenity and city views.

Cottee said Marrone represented the first stage of the group's longer-term plans for the area.

Dalcott was established in 2025 by Lachlan Cottee and Ben Dalgliesh, combining development and construction capability under an integrated model and focusing on architecturally considered residential projects.

Marrone will initially be offered through a pre-release registration campaign ahead of its broader public launch.

Dalcott targets owner-occupiers with South Brisbane debut Marrone

Parnell Developments is the latest to seek significant uplift through the NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority on a Strathfield site previously approved for a much smaller apartment development.

Parnell has sought approval for a 32-storey mixed use tower across&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/7-lyons-street-strathfield-nsw-2135">3-7 Lyons Street and 18 Parnell Street</a>, a&nbsp;1,857 sqm site around 400 metres from Strathfield Station. The building would yield 160 apartments, 15 per cent of which will be dedicated affordable as per the government mandate for buildings seeking additional uplift.

Approved previously was a nine-storey building back in 2022 with just over 30 apartments. That approval came prior to the project being&nbsp;progressively reconsidered as planning policy shifted toward greater density around transport hubs.

<img alt="Strathfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c5af5281-a643-4eb2-b8c4-0081b59c04c7" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%209.16.48%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=37bd3mI7rHNpThOV_75VO8xsGFwWOi1u" />

Turner has designed the latest building that would replace&nbsp;existing detached homes across the four lots.

The apartment mix comprises 22 one-bedroom apartments, 107 two-bedroom and two-bedroom-plus configurations, and 31 apartments with three or more bedrooms. The scheme also includes 203 car spaces across six basement levels and 58 bicycle spaces.

The proposal has been designed around a three-storey podium addressing Lyons Street, with the tower rising above and stepping toward its upper levels.

Turner said the podium was deliberately scaled to respond to the existing street, while the taller element has been designed as part of the emerging skyline anticipated around Strathfield Town Centre and the wider Homebush transport-oriented development precinct.

The Lyons Street frontage would have a more active, pedestrian-focused character, incorporating the commercial tenancy, landscaping and a brick-framed podium with an awning.

<img alt="Strathfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="14b20874-b8c3-4ac7-bc03-92be9a69fb78" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%209.17.48%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=av.9TxtqIRTC6v3PkSuu1rL9rreWoe2h" />

Parnell Street, which faces the railway corridor, has been given a different architectural treatment, with double-height breeze blocks, landscaping and communal areas used to soften the interface with the rail infrastructure.

The tower itself uses curved and recessed facade elements, with wave-like indentations across the northern elevation breaking the building into three vertical forms.

A palette of grey concrete, brick and breeze blocks is complemented by clay and terracotta accents, while the upper tower adopts a lighter expression through articulated slab edges, vertical fins and recessed glazing.

Residents would have access to 467 sqm of communal open space spread across three levels. The ground floor would accommodate the more active resident areas, including barbecue and group gathering spaces and an internal communal room capable of being used for working from home.

A more passive viewing deck is proposed at level three, overlooking the ground-level landscaping and neighbouring tennis courts, while a rooftop "sunset deck" at level 30 would provide another social and relaxation space.

<img alt="Parnell" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c3dce401-a80f-4682-8471-4caa01180880" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-25%20at%209.17.34%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=Xyo8JVqbOhSJXNy6Ih.1cHL.O6i0bGR." />

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Strathfield has been earmarked for substantial change through the Strathfield Town Centre planning work and the nearby Homebush TOD precinct.

Turner's report says the project has been designed to act as a transition between the existing low and mid-rise development surrounding the site and the taller built form expected to emerge across the town centre.

The proposal is being assessed as State Significant Development under the HDA pathway, alongside the concurrent request to amend the Burwood Local Environmental Plan.

First look: New apartment tower pitched for Strathfield Town Centre precinct

An $18 million penthouse has hit the market in Main Beach as construction tops out on La Mer, the $155 million apartment development rising just metres from the beach.

Spanning around 600 sqm across the top two levels of the 29-storey tower on Main Beach Parade, the four-bedroom penthouse is one of the latest eight-figure residences to test the upper end of the Gold Coast apartment market.

Its launch comes amid continued activity at the very top of the market, following the $30 million off-the-plan sale of a Burleigh Heads penthouse earlier this year, which surpassed the Gold Coast's previous $24 million apartment record set in 2023.

The <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/la-mer-main-beach-3580-main-beach-parade-main-beach-qld-4217">La Mer penthouse</a> has been designed as a private residence in the sky, with 360-degree views spanning the ocean, Broadwater, hinterland and Gold Coast skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378731]

All four bedrooms have ensuites, while the ocean-facing master retreat occupies around half of the upper level and includes its own lounge, private balcony, two walk-in wardrobes and an oversized ensuite with a freestanding stone bath positioned to take in the views.

The residence also features a kitchen designed to accommodate a private chef, a 3.6-metre island bench, expansive butler's pantry, wine cellar and integrated bar.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378732]

A rooftop pool and substantial outdoor entertaining area with its own kitchen sit above the residence, while a grand staircase connects the two internal levels. The penthouse also has its own express lift.

OTP Group Director James Elliott, who is marketing La Mer, said the penthouse was expected to appeal to high-net-worth buyers seeking either a permanent Main Beach residence or Gold Coast holiday home.

“The La Mer penthouse represents exceptional value, considering its quality design, size, privacy and location, not to mention the 360-degree views capturing the beach and Gold Coast Broadwater,” Elliott said.

“We’re anticipating interest from high-net-worth individuals and couples seeking a residence or holiday home in the sought-after village enclave of Main Beach, taking advantage of the unprecedented growth underway in the area and neighbouring The Spit.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378736]

La Mer is being developed by developer-builder ODUS and Nazero, in partnership with funder Metrics Credit Partners.

ODUS Director Byron Sakha said topping out the tower had provided the opportunity to release the project's most significant residence.

“We’ve worked with internationally-recognised studio Sici Design on the penthouse interiors, with a focus on ensuring it isn’t luxury for luxury’s sake. Every element has been thoughtfully designed to enhance quality of life for those who call it home,” Sakha said.

“The views are the hero of virtually every space, but we’ve given equal attention to the fittings and finishes, so every detail exudes elegance and refinement.”

Sici Design Founder and Director Maria Papadopoulos said the extensive views became an integral part of the interior design rather than simply something the residence was designed around.

“The views weren't something we designed around, they became part of the design itself, with the true luxury of La Mer in its feeling of peace, calm and wellbeing,” Papadopoulos said.

“Luxury isn't defined by how something looks, but how it makes you feel, and we believe a luxurious home should be beautiful to live in, not stressful to maintain.”

The interiors combine Austral Dream Dolomite natural stone and travertine with timber flooring and a restrained coastal palette.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=95606 project_image_fid=378734]

Designed by Plus Studio, La Mer is one of the more boutique additions to the rapidly changing Main Beach apartment market.

The tower comprises just 24 full-floor, three-bedroom plus multipurpose room apartments below the two-level penthouse, giving the project a considerably lower density than many of the larger towers being developed across the Gold Coast.

Residents will have access to a pool and spa, gym, sauna, barbecue facilities, private sun lounges, yoga lawn and outdoor beach shower.

The penthouse has been released as part of the final collection of residences at La Mer, with remaining apartments priced from $4.3 million.

Construction is expected to complete later this year, with a fully furnished display apartment now open on level four.

ODUS releases $18 million penthouse crowning La Mer Main Beach

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/far-east-consortium">Far East Consortium</a> is preparing to commence construction on <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/640-bourke-street-melbourne-640-bourke-street-melbourne-vic-3000">640 Bourke Street</a> this October, marking the next milestone for the Melbourne CBD development and its higher-end Eliza Collection.

Spanning levels 44 to 68 of the 68-storey <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a>-designed tower, the Eliza Collection has been conceived as a lower-density offering within the broader development, with only five apartments on each floor, dedicated lift access and a collection of resident spaces reserved exclusively for Eliza Collection residents.

The Eliza Collection forms part of Far East Consortium's broader move toward larger-format residences at 640 Bourke Street, where the number of apartments was reduced from earlier plans as apartment sizes increased.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=365685]

"What it's meant for 640 Bourke is we've actually reduced the number of apartments. We've increased the overall size of the apartments. We don't have any studios in here, and what that does for a project is it elevates it," Far East Consortium Director of Sales and Marketing Lauren Sheldon said.

Rothelowman Associate Jun Chang said the design process provided an opportunity to create more generous floorplans.

"We were given the opportunity to be more generous. The apartments became bigger and squarer than any other apartments which had been designed in the CBD before that."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=368869]

That thinking carries through to the Eliza Collection, where the residences have been designed around the space and functionality associated with a larger home, but positioned high above the centre of Melbourne.

Kitchens are equipped with Gaggenau appliances, a butler's pantry, temperature-controlled wine cabinet and sculptural pendant lighting, while engineered timber flooring, stone and porcelain finishes and custom cabinetry feature throughout the broader interiors.

Privacy and security are another point of distinction. Eliza Collection residents have dedicated lift access, while 640 Bourke Street will provide concierge services and secure resident parking. Short-stay accommodation, including Airbnb, will not be permitted within the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=365689]

Eliza Collection residents will also have exclusive access to selected amenity spaces across levels one and three of the restored Eliza Tinsley building. These include the Salon with grand piano, an art therapy room, private dining rooms and treatment rooms.

They sit within more than 3,000 sqm of amenity planned across 640 Bourke Street, alongside facilities including a pool, gym, whisky lounge and further social and wellness spaces.

The Eliza Tinsley building itself is central to the wider project's identity. Rather than treating the existing Eliza Tinsley façade as a separate element, Rothelowman used it as a starting point for the architecture of the new tower, with the historic building to accommodate the project's gallery and lobby.

"It's a significant asset and wants to be celebrated and experienced by all residents every single time they go in and out of the building," Rothelowman Principal Stuart Marsland said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=509 project_image_fid=368872]

The tower will rise behind the retained heritage building at 640 Bourke Street, placing residents within walking distance of Southern Cross Station, Flagstaff Gardens, Queen Victoria Market and the Docklands waterfront.

With construction scheduled to begin in October, Far East Consortium has established an onsite display gallery at 640 Bourke Street, including fully built apartments that allow the project's layouts, materials and finishes to be inspected at full scale.

A fully built Eliza Collection apartment is also available to view at the display suite by appointment ahead of the planned October construction commencement.

Eligible purchasers who buy before construction commences can secure the full available off-the-plan stamp duty savings, subject to eligibility and applicable conditions.

Sekisui House Australia has commenced construction on the latest stage of Sanctuary, its new $2 billion waterfront community in Wentworth Point.

The mixed-use development will add 2,100 homes to a former industrial area, as well as create a new dynamic waterside precinct.

The latest stage, Willow, will be one of seven buildings in the burgeoning development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6969 project_image_fid=228634]

Sanctuary’s masterplan, designed by architecture and design studio TURNER, will span 9.4 hectares across six stages.

The masterplan design also allows for future public transport links within its streetscape, including the $602.4 million megaproject - Parramatta Light Rail, the delivery of which will transform the suburb.

Situated along the waterfront of <a href="/developments/wentworth-point-nsw-2127">Wentworth Point</a>, the latest stage of <a href="/new-apartments/sanctuary-wentworth-point-willow-release-11-wattlebird-road-wentworth-point-nsw-2127">Sanctuary</a>, Willow features 309 apartments, 100 of which have been snapped up.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6969 project_image_fid=228637]

Willow’s architectural design elevates the natural surroundings, offering most apartments with dual aspects that provide expansive views spanning Newington Nature Reserve to the Parramatta River, extending to the Blue Mountains. &nbsp;

The design of the new stage is influenced by the curves of the Parramatta River, the vibrant colours of the nearby parklands, and the patterns found in native flora. The design philosophy blends nature into the core of the development, fostering a harmonious connection between residents and their surroundings.

Sanctuary will feature an organic-shaped lagoon pool at the centre of the development, forming a 'green heart' with extensive landscaping and gardens.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6969 project_image_fid=228561]

Sekisui House Australia's Paul Wainwright said people see the appeal of living at one of Sydney’s last and largest absolute north-facing riverfront apartment addresses.

"It’s the final piece of the jigsaw in the reimagining of the Parramatta River at Sydney’s heart," Wainwright says.

"Sanctuary also provides extensive public open space and a range of facilities, which is a major drawcard."

Muse Potts Point, the rare new apartment development in the <a href="/developments/potts-point-nsw-2011">harbourside suburb</a>, has kicked off its construction.

Developer <a href="/developers/thirdi-group">Third.i</a> and acquisition partner Toohey Miller have officially broken ground on the <a href="/new-apartments/muse-potts-point-30-34-brougham-street-potts-point">WMK Architecture-designed building</a> that comprises just 13 one, two and three-bedroom apartments.

The apartments, with interiors crafted by Mathieson Architects, offer terraces with extensive views of the harbour and city skyline. The views are best captured from the communal resident rooftop which features a swimming pool and seating areas.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112613 project_image_fid=231686]

Dilcara has been appointed to deliver Muse Potts Point, with construction anticipated to complete by early 2026. Third.i and Dilcare have been working together for 15 years. Their joint project portfolio includes recent developments such as Third.i’s Botany Road project in Waterloo, Soho in Surry Hills, Cavallo in Kensington, and most recently the new Third.i head office in Crows Nest.

Muse is set to play a pivotal role in transforming Brougham Street, adding to a total of 35 new boutique apartments planned across approved and proposed developments.

Recent sales data shows that apartments on Brougham Street, both new and second-hand, currently average around $45,000 per square metre. In comparison, properties on Victoria Street average $70,000 per square metre, while those on Macleay Street/Darlinghurst Road range from $62,000 to $80,000 per square metre.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112613 project_image_fid=231687]

Luke Berry, Third.i. Co-Founder, said&nbsp;Muse Potts Point is set to redefine urban living with its "exceptional design and breathtaking views."

"We are excited to enhance the area’s iconic landscape and offer a unique lifestyle experience, blending sophistication with the dynamic spirit of Muse’s surroundings," Berry said.

"We are thrilled to embark on this groundbreaking journey and we can't wait to bring this project to fruition."

Based on recent data, Eastern Sydney suburbs, including Potts Point, continue to attract local buyers seeking premium properties in heritage locations with access to a variety of lifestyle amenities. Demand remains steady among prestige downsizers seeking their next home in Sydney’s East, with Potts Point gaining popularity due to its growth potential and local cultural offerings.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112613 project_image_fid=231690]

Berry emphasised the current opportunity for buyers to invest in Potts Point.

“Now is the time to invest in Potts Point," Berry added.

"With ongoing regeneration and community upgrades, property values are expected to rise. Sales are increasing on popular streets like Victoria and Macleay, while Brougham Street properties are priced at about a third to half the cost per square metre.

"Muse Potts Point offers access to the area's lifestyle at a lower price, with additional rooftop views. High interest in premium properties makes this a unique opportunity to enjoy Potts Point’s exceptional offerings at an attractive value.”

Muse Potts Point is set to complete in March 2026 and welcome residents shortly after.

The Centennial Collection by Stargate Property has continued to break records for Bondi Junction.

The luxury development is resetting the record books again, with a three-bedroom apartment being picked up for $8.55 million, the highest price achieved for a three-bedroom apartment in the suburb.

Ray White Projects Director, Marcello Bo, said local rightsizers continue to show strong interest in the project with generous layouts and amazing interiors.

“Uninterrupted views of the harbour and city skyline is a big drawcard for buyers, along with the proximity to Woollahra, <a href="/developments/bondi-junction-nsw-2022">Bondi Junction</a> and Centennial Park across the road.”

“The Centennial Collection finishes are extremely luxurious. There’s a winter pool and a year-round rooftop pool, a concierge and wellness hub; it really is a luxury experience.”

Bo said the apartments had been consistently achieving record prices for the area since the project was launched.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136076 project_image_fid=212615]

On the fringe of Centennial Park,&nbsp;<a href="/new-apartments/the-centennial-collection-east-sydney-2-nelson-street-bondi-junction">The Centennial Collection</a>&nbsp;comprises just 73 one, two and three-bedroom apartments across two 10-level buildings designed by SJB.

The first release of the apartments last year were snapped up in a matter of weeks, part due to the architectural designs by SJB, part due to the rarity of a new project so close to the convenience of Bondi Junction, the beauty of Centennial Park, and the vibrancy of Woollahra's Queen Street.

Communal facilities in the building will include a rooftop pool with outdoor dining and entertaining spaces as well as an indoor ‘winter’ pool. There's also a concierge, cold and dry goods delivery rooms and a wellness hub including a cardio and personal training area. The building will also have EV charging stations and storage for all residences.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136076 project_image_fid=212622]

<a href="/project-marketer/ray-white-projects">Ray White Projects</a>&nbsp;Managing Partner, Eddie Mansour, said with construction well underway, buyers are becoming increasingly interested in the building.

“Locals are transitioning out of big traditional family homes, to a spacious residence that they can lock up and leave.

“Buyers are wanting a lifestyle change and are becoming more fluid in where they want to live. With construction well underway, buyers can plan out their relocation and lifestyle change in advance. It gives them time to prepare their family home for sale and to align it with the completion of The Centennial Collection.”

<a href="/developers/stargate-property">Stargate</a>&nbsp;has eyes on its next development, further down Oxford St. In June they submitted plans for their seventh development in Bondi Junction, two towers with 111 apartments.

Having taken over the Central Coast Quarter, Gosford apartment development from St Hilliers, builder-developer&nbsp;Urban Property Group&nbsp;has released the final apartment of the first stage of the project.

<a href="/developers/urban-property-group">Urban Property Group</a>&nbsp;has recommenced construction of The Waterfront, a 25-level tower with 136 apartments. They've poured the concrete up to level 14, and are on track for completion in Q4 2025.

The final release of apartments offer a mix of two and three-bedroom configurations, as well as a handful four-bedroom apartments.

<img alt="The Waterfront at Central Coast Quarter" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="69a35482-c3b3-48b8-82f0-4e4aff844d5c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/The%20Waterfront_Living%20room_water%20views.jpg?VersionId=MuvFudeDBdrlIdbJQlA.YUerCI2XWdy9" />

One of the key measures to be implemented by UPG to safeguard buyer interests is the application of <a href="/news/resilience-latent-defects-insurance">10-year Latent Defects Insurance</a> (LDI), supplied through Resilience Insurance, offering additional protection against unforeseen construction defects for 10 years from the date of purchase.

Urban Property Group has retrospectively applied this significant consumer protection for all future and existing buyers of The Waterfront, where originally there was none, and is employing stringent quality assurance measures to ensure timely completion of the construction phases. This proactive approach underscores Urban's reputation as a trustworthy partner for consumers.&nbsp;

Urban Property Group Sales Director, Tom McIvor, says it is pleasing to see such enormous interest in the project on the Central Coast.

"The Waterfront represents the pinnacle of design and lifestyle, and Urban Property Group is proud to be delivering homes that offer contemporary coastal living," McIvor says,.

"Central Coast Quarter’s retail offering will further enhance this experience, providing residents with convenient access to an array of dining options at their doorstep. We are excited to create a vibrant new community in Gosford and &nbsp;The Waterfront offers buyers the opportunity to be among the first to join this new precinct.”&nbsp;

TWT Property Group has secured over $30 million worth of sales at the first release of its new Crows Nest masterplanned community, The Collective.

Locals drove demand for the first release of just 25 apartments, with 60 per cent of them snapped up on the opening weekend.

<a href="/project-marketer/belle-property">Belle Property</a>&nbsp;International's Murray Wood said younger couples and downsizer owner-occupiers were among the first buyers.

"The enthusiasm we’ve seen on day one confirms that there’s a real appetite for boutique-style residences in this area," Wood said.

"Buyers are very keen to secure a foothold in <a href="/developments/crows-nest-nsw-2065">Crows Nest</a>, especially given the new Metro station's convenience. The market is showing resilience, and these sales reflect strong confidence in premium, well-connected developments like <a href="/new-apartments/the-collective-crows-nest-23-35-atchison-st-crows-nest">The Collective</a>."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=94318 project_image_fid=293323]

Prices for the one-bedroom apartments start from $935,000, with two-beds from $1.48 million and three-bedrooms from $2.3 million. The exclusive four-bedroom apartment start at $3.05 million.

The larger two and three-bedroom residences have been the most sought after, particularly by owner-occupiers seeking generously proportioned, well-designed spaces, Wood added.

"The lifestyle-oriented location, combined with a two-year completion horizon, is giving families time to plan their moves."

The newly operational Crows Nest Metro station has been a clear drawcard for buyers, with several purchasers highlighting the Metro as a ‘game-changer’ for their next property move.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=94318 project_image_fid=294220]

Gavin Zhang, General Manager of <a href="/developers/twt-property-group">TWT Property Group</a>, said after 10 years of planning and development, it was "fantastic to see such strong interest in The Collective."

"We’ve been confident that this project would be a great addition to the neighbourhood, and the results speak for themselves," Zhang says.

"The broader vision for this development is not just about creating high-quality residences, but also fostering a community-focused, arts-inspired precinct that will be a landmark for years to come."

The first stage of the masterplan will feature 3,000 sqm of commercial space, part of the 10,000 sqm of commercial space that will be on offer across the total 1.3-hectare development.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=94318 project_image_fid=293333]

Wood suggested the&nbsp;outlook for The Collective and the surrounding area remains optimistic.

“With escalating land values in Crows Nest and limited new supply, we would expect The Collective to perform well in the long term,”&nbsp;he said.

"We’ve provided detailed, local sales evidence that clearly shows The Collective is well-placed in terms of value. I even told one buyer, ‘If you find another property in this location, with this level of quality and pricing, I’ll buy it myself!’ That’s how confident we are."

While The Collective is technically within <a href="/developments/st-leonards-nsw-2065">St Leonards</a>, its location on the northern side of the Pacific Highway places it closer to the established, thriving hubs of Crows Nest and Naremburn.

<a href="/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a> has commenced construction on its latest project, Marquet &amp; Mary in Rhodes, with a traditional sod-turn and blessing event attended by key project partners.&nbsp;

The event marked the beginning of a significant development that will see the construction of a 42-level tower comprising 274 apartments, with a portion designated as affordable housing for essential workers.

<a href="/new-apartments/marquet-mary-rhodes-1-9-marquet-street-rhodes-nsw-2138">Marquet &amp; Mary</a>, located at the corner of Marquet and Mary streets, has been designed by <a href="/architects/fk-australia">Fender Katsalidis</a>&nbsp;who won a&nbsp;design excellence competition to take the artchitectural reins.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=141515 project_image_fid=287865]

The building will serve as a new landmark in the <a href="/developments/rhodes-nsw-2138">Rhodes</a> town centre, with its design emphasising elegant internal apartment planning, a tripartite vertical rhythm on the facade, and a human-scaled design for the podium.

The tower will offer one, two, and three-bedroom apartments with views ranging from the Sydney skyline to the east to the Blue Mountains in the west.&nbsp;

In addition to residential spaces, the development will feature a four-level podium with commercial and retail spaces, along with a rooftop terrace, a courtyard garden, and a new public plaza at the southern entrance.&nbsp;

The project is strategically located within walking distance of Rhodes Train Station and is directly connected to Rhodes Central shopping centre.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=141515 project_image_fid=287864]

<a href="/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a> Chairman, Fouad Deiri OAM, highlighted the importance of collaboration in delivering projects of this scale and recognized the contributions of everyone involved in the project so far.&nbsp;

The Marquet &amp; Mary development is part of a larger effort by Deicorp, which currently has 3,200 apartments under construction across Sydney, to provide the homes and communities needed in the area.

The development's swift approval by Canada Bay City Council and the record-setting sales achievements underscore the project's significance in the region.&nbsp;

An 87 sqm two-bedroom apartment on the 30th level recently set a suburb record by selling for $1.72 million, driven by Deicorp’s reputation and the impressive views offered by the property.

Development giant ALAND has stepped in to complete the construction of the final three buildings in Toplace's besieged Castle Hill apartment development, Skyview.

Two buildings in the five-building development at 51-53 Old Castle Road have been completed. The third is around 80 per cent complete, while buildings four and five are yet to come out of the ground, but the basement levels have been dug. <a href="/developers/aland">ALAND</a> will be rectifying any potential defects in the existing shared basement.

ALAND has been appointed following a comprehensive process by receivers KordaMentha to determine the pathway for the completion of the development. ALAND will now work closely with the Building Commission NSW to complete the construction of the Castle Hill complex.

ALAND Founder and Owner Andrew Hrsto says ALAND has a strong record of turning around challenging projects and transforming them into award-winning residential complexes in sought-after suburbs.

“ALAND maintains an end-to-end capability that uniquely positions us to take on these types of projects,” he said.&nbsp;

“Both KordaMentha and the Building Commission NSW clearly recognise our strong reputation, the quality of our product and our expertise and we are excited to drive this entire complex to completion.”

The complete development will provide a total of 964 apartments housing 2500 people, making a significant impact on the Sydney housing crisis.

Upon completion, buildings C, D and E at Castle Hill will be offered as build-to-rent homes and will dramatically increase rental property availability in North West Sydney with 532 apartments providing much-needed rental housing for 1500 residents.

ALAND has a long history, completing 100 per cent of projects for more than 20 years.

The company has recently been awarded an iCIRT Gold rating following a rigorous and independent review process to determine its capability, capacity and commitment. &nbsp;

AYA Penthouse, the largest single-level apartment in Bondi Beach, has just been sold for around $22 million, just a few weeks before its completion.

The four-bedroom, 353 sqm penthouse designed by world-renowned architect Koichi Takada, was sold by Eddie Mansour of Ray White Projects and Jeremy Wiesner of Wiesner Property, with Mansour saying the sale represents the highest price achieved for a&nbsp;non-beachfront facing apartment.

Wiesner said every square metre of the penthouse "goes above and beyond."

"The indoor/outdoor living areas, enhanced by Takada’s signature touches, were a major drawcard for buyers."

<img alt="" data-bit="iit" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" height="260" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdMv79gUyZ7n3JPiNgqgarE5g2M5exVS9VMG8tiAtFTH3W5x_g7pIekB1MCek1wYczR7tED6nj5x1t46mhGJ7kd6BGwK5S2cdSurjx7gY-U8tOowflzyiRsHgpRDd2cmk66OOFNqaGtIJ70gNnVQIR6i68F?key=MYjsndFdB7Y58ALwjMF-Xg" tabindex="0" width="602" />

The AYA Penthouse sits atop Aqualine, a boutique block of just 12 apartments at 45 Hall Street, developed by Moshav Financial.

Tal Silberman, group managing director of Moshav, said that he was incredibly proud of their group’s development, setting a new benchmark for luxury property.

“AYA Penthouse epitomises coastal luxury with its iconic location and innovative design,"&nbsp;Silberman said.

"This record-breaking sale is testament to the desirability of Bondi Beach and the appetite for truly magnificent design."

Buyers agent Will Roberts from Alsaker negotiated the sale on behalf of the Eastern Suburbs buyer.

Construction firm Lord Group is currently completing the final stages of the development.

The tranformation of Crows Nest as one of the go-to suburbs on the Lower North Shore, is set to continue.

Leading property developer Third.i Group and joint venture partner Phoenix Property Investors have announced the launch of the first stage of Hume Place, its new four-building development above the recently opened Crows Nest Metro station.

The first stage of the development, <a href="/new-apartments/elevate-hume-place-crows-nest-25-hume-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Elevate at Hume Place</a>, will offer 130 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments designed by the&nbsp;internationally acclaimed architecture firm Woods Bagot.

<a href="/developments/crows-nest-nsw-2065">Crows Nest</a> has become one of the most connected suburbs in the Lower North Shore. Residents of Elevate couldn't be closer to the quiet, underground metro, which will take them to the CBD in just seven minutes, and to Chatswood in four.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142550 project_image_fid=297877]

Woods Bagot handled both the exterior architecture and interior design of Elevate Hume Place, an apartment development that will cater to a variety of purchasers from first time owners and/or investors to downsizers and right sizers wanting to be close to the Crows Nest Village and all this has to offer in terms of lifestyle and amenity and importantly benefit from the long term value that the Metro stations will bring to property owners.

A recent global study of the impacts that Metro stations have on residential property ‘on’ or ‘directly next’ to metro stations show that properties can demand premiums ranging from 20 per cent to 30 per cent higher in value than neighbouring properties.

Importantly for&nbsp;investors, a metro can help secure 15 per cent to 20 per cent premiums in rents compared to similar properties in the area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142550 project_image_fid=297878]

Third.i Co-Founder and Director, Luke Berry, said Elevate at Hume Place is set to redefine urban living in this part of Sydney.

"It's not only going to offer some of the best apartments ever released, Elevate is also a one-of-a-kind development in terms of the value the Metro will bring long term to its owners.

"There are plenty of projects claiming close links to the Crow’s Nest Metro, but there is only one project getting built above it all. Having Elevate built directly over the station is why this project will outperform any other local projects in the future”.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142550 project_image_fid=298039]

Third.i has appointed JLL Residential Project Sales as the project marketer and sales partner for Elevate.

Luke Billiau, Head of Capital Markets – Australia and New Zealand at JLL, said Elevate represents the future of integrated transport-oriented development.

"We're confident it will attract significant interest from both local and international buyers," Billiau said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110379 project_image_fid=198680]

The location of Audrey, in the emerging&nbsp;<a href="/developments/st-leonards-nsw-2065">St Leonards</a>&nbsp;South precinct, places residents within easy reach of Newlands Park, shopping destinations, cafes, restaurants, and major transport links, including St Leonards Train Station and the upcoming Crows Nest Metro.&nbsp;

Audrey will home a total of 102 apartments, with local architecture group <a href="/architects/sjb-architects">SJB</a> handling the architecture.

Construction of Audrey kicked off just over 12 months ago, and buyers are expected to move in in mid-2025.
