Local Gold Coast apartment developer Ayrton Mansi has been given the green light for a luxury 38-level residential tower on the fringe of Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach.

Designed by Plus Architecture, the tower, dubbed Nineteen First Avenue after its location on a double corner block at 19 First Avenue, comprises 34 residences across 38 levels, including one customisable double storey penthouse.

Amansi Projects Managing Director Ayrton Mansi says the apartments have been designed to offer the best of beachside living in one of the most liveable suburbs on the Gold Coast, in what is set to become one of the most boutique developments in the city.

“The development is situated between arguably two of the most famous Gold Coast suburbs, Broadbeach and Surfers Paradise,” Mansi said.

“The location is ideal - you're close enough to enjoy all the amenities that Broadbeach and Surfers Paradise have to offer, without being in the centre of the hustle and bustle.

“The position and aspect of the site inspired the design direction, resulting in a very special, one-of-a-kind, project that would be very hard to replicate on any other site in the surrounding areas.”

Mansi's vision for developing luxury highrises began prior to 2015, when he secured a site in the heart of Broadbeach and undertook development approval for a 39-story tower. He sold the proposed $120m project off-market to Little Projects, which has been developed and is now known as Signature Broadbeach. He has subsequently completed a mix of residential developments, luxury villas and DA land acquisitions.

Featuring three bedrooms with ensuites, a multi-purpose room, a powder room, and a study, the full floor apartments offer 280 sqm of internal floor space including 20 sqm of outdoor balcony space. Each apartment comes with two secure basement car parks and will be selling from $2.95 million. 

The apartments feature timber flooring, stone benchtops, brushed nickel tapware, feature lighting, V-Zug appliances and smart home automation.

The customisable penthouse offers four bedrooms, two multi-purpose rooms, and four and half bathrooms across two levels spanning 517 sqm and will have its own private terrace and swimming pool.

Mansi says the project was designed to meet the needs of the downsizing market from the surrounding local suburbs and interstate buyers looking for a luxurious, owner-occupier apartment with all the facilities and amenities to match.

“There is strong demand for large format, boutique full floor apartments along the coastal strip and in Broadbeach, this is hard to come by,” he said.

The development has two levels of resident’s recreation and amenity with a resort style pool and spa, with a gymnasium, sauna and steam room and barbeque areas. Designed for modern living, residents will also have exclusive access to work-from-home suites and a boardroom, with a community lounge and library.

Plus Architecture has designed a standout residential building, which will harmonise with its surroundings due to its slender form, with the lush greenery that’s been incorporated at ground level designed to enhance the streetscape,” Mansi added.

“The north-east facing balconies provide sensational views overlooking the ocean and city skyline, just a stone’s throw from the beaches of Broadbeach and Surfers Paradise. “The contemporary apartments are sleek, with neutral colour palettes, abundant storage and the highest quality fittings and fixtures that one would expect from a high-end development of this calibre.”

Eastview Australia, which has delivered over $2 billion worth of innovative and sophisticated projects on the Gold Coast, has been appointed as the project and development manager, while NPA Projects has been appointed to market the new development which is set to hit the market in the coming months.
