The latest inner-Brisbane apartment project by the local developer Dibcorp Properties is Bide, which is located in the heart of the upmarket riverfront suburb of Newstead.

The location of the 89-apartment development Bide, at 21 Longland Street, puts it just a stone's throw from the Brisbane River, and the convenience of the Teneriffe Ferry Wharf which connects the suburb to the CBD.

Residents will have immediate access to Gasworks Plaza on the adjoining Skyring Terrace riverfront street, which is home to a Woolworths and a numb er of other stores, as well as restaurants, cafes and coffee shops like Ping Pong, Yolk and Campos Coffee. 

On Longland Street there's the popular eateries include Smoky Moo, The Defiant Duck, Drum Dining and the Milky Lane Newstead.

Cutting across Longland are a number of side streets like Stratton and Wyandra, which have a number of retailers and boutiques for residents to explore like a Think 24hr fitness, Smile Studio, and Brisbane Skin.

Designed in collaboration with architects from Twohill & James, Lat27 and Wiltshire Stevens Architecture.

Nestled in the heart of Newstead, the 89 residence apartment tower has been designed as an urban getaway just 3 kilometres north-east of the Brisbane CBD.

It is the latest part of the suburb's transformation to an up-market residential suburb belying its industrial past. Timber yards, asbestos works, wharves and woolstores once dominated much of the predominantly commercial suburb, now one of the most sought-after apartment spots in Brisbane.

Bide is just a short distance away from Route 25 as well as the Teneriffe Ferry wharf and bus stations for those who choose public transit. As such it is right by the Brisbane river.

The proximity to schooling, as well the large three-bedroom apartments on offer, make Bide attractive for families. The nearby educational institutions include:

  • Torrens University Australia - Satellite campus - 1.4km away
  • University of Queensland - Satellite campus - 1.9km away
  • Queensland University of Technology - Main campus - 3.3km away
  • New Farm State School - Public School - 1 km away
  • Music Industry College - Private School - 1.1km away
  • Angelorum College - Private School - 1.1km away

Dibcorp has offered residents the opportunity to work hand in hand to tailor the layout, configuration and finishes of their apartment. 

Apartments inside feature open-plan living and dining, a balcony space and a study nook in some apartments for working from home.

Inside, residents can enjoy 600 sqm of amenity across two levels, including barbeque facilities, private cabanas, landscaped areas and seated space throughout.
