Morris Property Group

The Canberra-based developer and builder, Morris Property Group, is not slowing down its Gold Coast apartment development pipeline.

They've just taken their pipeline to over 1,000 apartments across the Gold Coast, lodging plans for a two-tower scheme in Broadbeach, where they have a number of applications&nbsp;on the desks of the Gold Coast City Council.

The first tower along Britannia Avenue will rise 40 storeys, and the second tower along Australia Avenue will rise 27 storeys, a combined 348 apartments across both towers. Both towers will have street frontage to both Britannia&nbsp;and Australia Ave.

The recreation level on level two&nbsp;is split to offer each building its own premium, including a pool, a large amount of open sun deck area, BBQ areas, a resident’s lounge, a gym and an outdoor yoga area.

Both buildings have been designed to offer generous landscaping at ground level and on the recreational area, with a design inspired to harness the green open spaces throughout Broadbeach.

The site is approximately 650m to the Broadbeach shopping and dining precinct along Surf Parade and approximately 350m to the beach.

Veteran developer Barry Morris said the sites had a major appeal for being located in one of Broadbeach's best areas.

"Future occupiers will enjoy the peaceful surroundings while remaining close to some of the best amenities in Broadbeach and more or less the Gold Coast," Morris says.

"We’ve been developing in the Gold Coast for over 20 years, and this project will be a significant residential project for the group. We adopted our tried and tested design principles of creating floor plans and amenities with the occupier’s front of mind and ensuring the ability to deliver a premium product.

‘MPG’s target market is owner occupiers, upgraders, downsizers and investors. Not everyone has $3million dollars to spend and we want to ensure we always provide affordable homes for all to enjoy," Morris added.

MPG secured the amalgamated&nbsp;3,305 sqm site through local development site specialists&nbsp;GV Property Group, who listed 13-15 Australia Avenue Broadbeach for sale last year, a collective sale of 12 individual unit owners that took over three months to put together.

Nine offers from local and interstate developers were received for the site, with Morris Property Group providing the most favourable offer to secure the site.

In the following months, a further two blocks to the north - eight&nbsp;units at 16-18 Britannia and four units at 20 Britannia Avenue were amalgamated and purchased off-market.

The site acquisition and scale for MPG is something that has not been seen before in this pocket of Broadbeach, GV Property Group director Antonio Mercuri noted.

"The site has a lot going for it - two street frontages, unobstructed views down Federation Avenue and an expansive 45m North Facing frontage to Britannia Avenue - it's very clear why MPG had significant interest in securing the site," Mercuri said.

"We are happy to be working with a strong and reputable developer who provides not only ourselves but our vendors with certainty that they can transact on the site and in addition, develop the site into the future.

Morris Property Group currently have Sandbar Burleigh Heads and Essentia Surfers Paradise in the market, with the upcoming project Crest Broadbeach set to launch in the coming months.

Morris Property Group continue Gold Coast apartment pile up with two-tower Broadbeach plans

The longstanding development and construction company, Morris Property Group, continues to add to their development pipeline, lodging two applications for residential projects in the in demand Broadbeach.

Veteran developer Barry Morris says the Gold Coast has seen several DA’s lodged in the past six to 12&nbsp;months, especially in Broadbeach.

"Buyers love Broadbeach because it, offers beachside living with metropolitan amenities, which is what the market is after," Morris says.

One of the newly lodged projects, at 22 Chelsea Avenue, is just a few doors down from their newly complete and sold out Opus project.

That will target the owner-occupier, with just 18 three-bedroom apartments across the 20-level tower.

The second level will home the recreation and will feature a barbecue&nbsp;area with outdoor dining, gym and pool. The space will provide an outlook towards Broadbeach Park and maximise northern sunlight.

The Queensland-based architecture firm&nbsp;Burling Brown designed 22 Chelsea Avenue, noting in their design statement that the small tower footprint and orientation of the building&nbsp;will result in a slender tower profile as viewed from the north, where the building will be most visually prominent.

<img alt="" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" height="2160" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/mpg02_render_4_a.jpg" width="3840" />

"The design incorporates strong and distinct angular edges that articulate the form," the statement noted.&nbsp;

"The use of a light and dark colour scheme and the inclusion of vertical elements up the western elevation produce a high quality and contemporary design."

Burling Brown also designed the other tower at&nbsp;2739 Gold Coast Highway, cleverly designed to have all 48 apartments face north. There will just be two-bedroom apartments in the building, three per floor.

The design of the building illustrates a contemporary look utilising a natural material palette to help complement the area and Broadbeach streetscape.

MPG now have&nbsp;four Broadbeach projects in the pipeline and one in Burleigh Heads. They're also set to be&nbsp;launching Essentia in Surfers Paradise in the coming weeks, which offers one and two-bedroom stock.

"This will be a great opportunity for us to receive some market data and get ourselves back in the selling game, preparing us for the many upcoming project launches," Morris added.

MPG currently has two residential projects under construction Sandbar Burleigh Heads which has limited stock remaining, as well&nbsp;as a new commercial building Mermaid Plaza, in Mermaid Beach.

First look: Morris Property Group file plans for two more Broadbeach towers

One of Queensland&#39;s longest standing property developer and builder,&nbsp;Morris Property Group, is continuing to bulk up its Gold Coast apartment pipeline.

It&#39;s still focused around the Broadbeach area, with Morris, led by the veteran developer Barry Morris, set to lodge&nbsp;plans for Malo, a nine-level tower at 8 Jubilee Avenue, near Federation Park. There will be just 16 three-bedroom apartments.

Morris has had the site since 2006, and has cleared the old two-level, four-apartment building on the 607 sqm site.

The project has been designed by Canberra based architects Guida Moseley and Brown.

The building will also offer ground floor amenities and three levels of underground parking.

The building has been designed to complement the surrounding area&#39;s&nbsp;architecture seamlessly. The site neighbour&#39;s&nbsp;previous MPG projects, Qube and Synergy, and will be the group&#39;s ninth Broadbeach project.

As the group continues to lodge plans for high rise residential developments, the proposed project will position itself in the market for buyers seeking a modern Broadbeach apartment in a low rise building.

In the pipeline for Morris Property Group is Crest Broadbeach, a 37-storey residential tower on Armrick Avenue providing 157 two and three bedroom apartments.

MPG has also consolidated a site at 1873-1875 Gold Coast Highway Burleigh Heads, with a DA expected to be lodged in the coming weeks.

Morris has had the site since 2006, and has cleared the old two-level, four-apartment building on the 607 sqm site.

Morris Property Group set for owner-occupier focused Broadbeach apartment development

Morris Property Group, the popular&nbsp;Canberra and Gold Coast developer, has landed its next apartment development.

It&#39;s in the hot Burleigh Heads market, where MPG, headed by development veteran Barry Morris, has secured a 2,024 sqm double block at 1873-1875 Gold Coast Highway.

They&#39;ve paid $12.9 million for the site, sold through GV Property Group&#39;s Antonio Mercuri, which sits just 300 metres from the Burleigh entertainment and lifestyle precinct.

MPG plans a development comprising predominantly two-bedroom,&nbsp;two-bathroom&nbsp;apartments to provide housing more affordable to a broader section of the community.

&quot;Burleigh Heads is a great lifestyle location and represents the relaxed Gold Coast way of life. 1873-1875 Gold Coast Highway is an amazing opportunity to provide more buyers with the opportunity to enjoy the Burleigh life,&quot;&nbsp;Barry Morris said.

<img alt="" height="675" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/burleigh_hero_2.jpg" width="1200" />

&quot;The purchase of the Burleigh 1873 property comes hot on the heels of the group&rsquo;s purchase of 13-15 Armrick Avenue Broadbeach and 13-15 Australia Avenue Broadbeach as the group replenishes its Gold Coast development and construction pipeline.

&quot;There are several developments in the Burleigh area that offer multi-million dollar apartments to a select few; this is not our target market. We want more people to be able to enjoy Burleigh and everything it has to offer.&quot;

Antoni Mercuri, whose&nbsp;GV Property Group sold MPG the site, said there were over 20 enquiries from developers and investors, with six development groups&nbsp;submitting offers.

&quot;It is rare to find such a holding in the Burleigh precinct bounded by The Esplanade and the Gold Coast Highway, and the competitive tension between developers was a testament to the popularity of the area,&quot; Mercuri said.

Morris Property Group first started developing on the Gold Coast in 2005 when they created Verve Broadbeach.

Since then, MPG has completed seven towers in Broadbeach, two in Mermaid Beach and three in Burleigh Heads totalling over 1,200 apartments.

The group has two Gold Coast apartments projects under construction including Sandbar Burleigh Heads and&nbsp;Essence Surfers Paradise. They recently sold out all of the apartments in Koko Broadbeach and Opus Broadbeach.

Only 10 apartments remain in Sandbar Burleigh, the 26-level development with 163 apartments.

MPG plans a development comprising predominantly two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments to provide housing more affordable to a broader section of the community.
