North - 211 Surf Parade, Surfers Paradise

The Gold Coast is always at its busiest over Christmas, as southern capital dwellers heading to the Sunshine State over the holidays.

And that's not lost on some developers who know there is always a considerable amount of interest in property over the booming December and January period.

Online search is up, and so is foot traffic. With just two months to go until the end of the year, a number of developers have seen enough early enquiry to be getting their projects in market before we close 2022 and new projects start launching in 2023.

We've had a look at the best Gold Coast projects launching before the end of 2022.

<h2>Project: North 
Developer: Gallery Group 
Address: 211 Surf Parade, Surfers Paradise 
Apartments: 93</h2>

The national property developer Gallery Group is set to launch North, its sister project to Chalk on Surf Parade, in the coming weeks.

North has been designed by architects MAS, who&nbsp;took cues from Chalk. The aim was to create a "distinctly recognisable form that integrates into the established character of the area, whilst complementing its southern neighbour.

"Apartments have been designed with coastal living at the forefront of mind, with expansive living zones transitioning out to articulated balconies, offering privacy and comfort and encouraging the notion of sub-tropical Queensland living," MAS noted in their submission to the Gold Coast Council.

<h2>Project: Holm Rainbow Bay 
Developer: Chapter Two 
Address: 44-50 Eden Avenue, Rainbow Bay 
Apartments: 86</h2>

They'll offer a rare trifecta of views, with ocean river and Gold Coast hinterland outlooks, including views over Snapper Rocks.

Designed by Plus Architecture, some&nbsp;of the two-bedders will offer additional multi-purpose rooms, the same deal with the three-bedroom apartments.

“The major appeal of this site is the unobstructed ocean views because that is what people expect when they visualise their sea change on the Gold Coast,” said Leo Sarris, who heads up Bassar Construction Group alongside Simon Bassil.

“Our commitment and focus remain in Broadbeach because we feel it is the suburb that caters for everyone and everything you need is within walking distance.” Located opposite Broadbeach State School, the site is currently home to two seventies-style blocks of flats across two titles."

Eternity will offer three and four-bedroom floor plans ranging from 190 sqm to 300 sqm, in addition to the 500 sqm for the penthouse suites.

Apartments will each have a double garage, while the penthouses come with triple car parking, a rooftop terrace and a plunge pool.

Company director Barry Morris acquired the double-block site last year through Antonio Mercuri’s GV Property Group following an expressions of interest campaign.

"We saw a great opportunity for this site as it's ideally positioned to offer direct access to popular destinations including James Street and Goodwin Terrace," Morris told Urban.

The planned apartment building is next to the previous MPG project Boardwalk Burleigh and will be the group's&nbsp;fifth project in Burleigh Heads.

MPG are currently building Sanbar Burleigh Beach nearby.

The top 6 Gold Coast apartment developments still to launch in 2022

There will be 93 apartments, with over two thirds of the product mix two-beds

The national property developer Gallery Group has submitted plans for an apartment tower next door to their currently in market project, Chalk.

A few months ago Gallery Group, led by Adam Barclay, amended their plans for Chalk, reducing their massive tower from 35 levels down to 20, and changing the mix to be weighted to two-bedrooms, a stark contrast from the 250 sqm apartments offered in the original plans.

They&#39;ve not made the same mistake twice, filing plans for a tower next door also dominated by two beds.

<img alt="" height="904" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-08-02_at_8.48.27_pm.png" width="1540" />

There will be 93 apartments, with over two thirds of the product mix two-beds. There will be 26 three-bed apartments and two four-bedroom skyhomes, as well as a ground level business centre, a gym on level 11, and a pool on level 12.

The project has been dubbed Surf Parade North by architects MAS in their planning documentation, due to its proximity to Chalk.

MAS took cues from Chalk, with the aim to create a &quot;distinctly recognisable form that integrates into the established character of the area, whilst complementing its southern neighbour.

&quot;Apartments have been designed with coastal living at the forefront of mind, with expansive living zones transitioning out to articulated balconies, offering privacy and comfort and encouraging the notion of sub-tropical Queensland living,&quot; MAS noted in their submission to the Gold Coast Council.

&quot;The flowing façade of the north references the movement of water, whilst the articulation of the south responds directly to the buildings solar orientation and relationship with &lsquo;Surf Parade South.&rsquo;&quot;

Currently on the site is three single-storey dwellings.
