First look: Shayher Group reveals next Indooroopilly stage
Following the successful Long Pocket townhouse development in Indooroopilly, developer Shayher Group has filed plans for its next installment of new dwellings in the area, just next door.
The new project at 34 Jacaranda Place, across the road from Jacaranda Place Reserve and adjacent to Handel Street Park, will comprise two low-rise buildings with 76 two and three-bedroom apartments. The apartments are split into two different buildings, Parkview and Riverview, due to the orientation of the two structures on the 6,609 sqm site.

Brisbane architecture firm JHA said in their Architectural Design Report that was submitted to Brisbane City Council last week that the architectural vision for this development is to "create a harmonious blend of elegance and functionality that resonates with the surrounding natural landscape."
"Inspired by the gentle flow of the Brisbane River, the design features soft curves and fluid lines that evoke a sense of movement and connection with nature. This fluidity is intended to reflect the tranquil ambiance of the nearby park and reserve."

There was a pre-lodgement meeting held between Shayher and the Brisbane City Council which stated the proposed land use for a medium-density residential development is supported and consistent with the existing approvals in effect over the site.
The Council did suggest that both the buildings, which approach 60-metres in length, are "not sufficiently broken up to reduce the apparent bulk." They suggested several options, to either steep the building levels up towards the Brisbane River, or tweak some of the setbacks.
Future residents of the new project will have access to a rooftop amenity level with an infinity pool atop the Riverview building and an outdoor lounge setting and yoga lawn crowning the Parkview block.
Shayher finished Long Pocket, 45 four-level townhouses next door, in 2024.
They have another multi-stage masterplan, the Bulimba Barracks redevelopment which is starting to gather momentum. Last year they filed plans for the first residential stage.
