The Audrey, Indooroopilly hits 70% sold with construction underway

Construction has commenced on a new set of apartments slated for Brisbane’s inner-city by SAVVE Developments &amp; Construction.&nbsp;

The 1610 sqm Indooroopilly site at 107 Clarence Road, is DA-approved to deliver 35 apartments across eight storeys upon completion, with The Audrey offering a mix of two, three and four-bedroom residences as well as one five-bedroom penthouse.&nbsp;

Commercial tenancies will take up shop across the ground floor of the site, with the two-storey addition set to include space for offices and food and beverage retailers.&nbsp;

Designed by Prospect Architects, with interiors by Merge, the development will take inspiration from the tree-lined streets of its locale, which is situated just moments from world-class cafes, restaurants, shopping and golf courses.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=94824 project_image_fid=209993]

An entry lobby and resident’s library will be situated across the ground floor, featuring stone floors, feature wallpaper, timber joinery and custom furniture, with the apartments beginning on level two, with just five residences set for each floor.&nbsp;

Designed for the owner-occupier, each of the homes will feature open living and dining areas, with 2.7-metre high ceilings, wide balcony doors and full-height glass panelling inviting natural light and breezes throughout.&nbsp;

SAVVE Director,&nbsp;Sandro Alberti&nbsp;said their research showed that most buyers would be locals, within an eight kilometre radius, which has, so far, been the case.

"Being the Builder and Developer meant we were able to fully customise, not only the fit out of each apartment but also able to amalgamate two floor plans together to purposely design larger apartments, satisfying our client's desired outcomes," Alberti said.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=94824 project_image_fid=210019]

"Of those buyers that decided to opt for larger residences, we have worked together with our architects and them to design magnificent four or five-bedroom apartments that cater for their customised interior preferences."

"With the addition of these unique larger residences within our boutique complex, we've reduced the number of apartments from 35 to now just 30".

Apartments will incorporate internal laundries, ensuites, media rooms, butler’s pantries and expansive storage options, with an interior palette of stone, engineered Oak Herringbone timber floors, and cool neutral walls.&nbsp;

The two-bedders will be priced from $680,000 with the three-bedroom apartments starting from just over $1 million.&nbsp;

Crowning the inner-city site will be a communal rooftop recreation deck, complete with a lap pool and day beds, barbecue facilities, alfresco dining space, and a conversation zone with a fire pit, all encased in lush green landscaping, with raised vegetable and herb garden beds and an open green zone also incorporated. &nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=94824 project_image_fid=210018]

Centrally located in a walkable community, The Audrey offers the best of all worlds, with the casual vibe of the leafy riverside suburb brimming with green open parklands while still being seamlessly connected to the CBD, which is just 9 minutes away.

The Indooroopilly Train Station is just a five-minute walk from the site, as is the Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, which is the largest shopping destination in the western suburbs of Brisbane, with over 360 specialty stores, 16 cinema rooms and a food court.&nbsp;

The Audrey is also close-by to two premier golf courses, in addition to a number of educational institutes, including The University of Queensland, Indooroopilly State High School, Brigidine College, St Peters Lutheran College, Ambrose Treacy College &amp; Holy Family Primary School.&nbsp;

SAVVE Developments behind latest Indooroopilly apartments, The Audrey

South-east Queensland residential developer TRK Property Group has lodged plans for a two-tower apartment development on a disused site at Indooroopilly.

The group amalgamated the site over two years, with a budget motel to make way for the residential development.

Landing in the heart of Indooroopilly at 140 Central Avenue, TRK&rsquo;s latest project will comprise 127 apartments across two seven-storey towers, as well as six two-storey terrace homes.

Designed by renowned architects, Rothelowman, the project expects to attract interest from young families and downsizers, with a mix of two and three-bedroom residences on offer at the riverside suburb site.

A subtropical promenade creates a divider between the residential buildings, with the space set to activate the ground plane.

From the curation of the subtropical native landscape, Rothelowman have maintained a focus on connection to nature and openness throughout the entire design of the project.

Operable facades and the design of voids give residents maximum access to natural light and ventilation, while the living areas all connect to generous semi-enclosed outdoor spaces, with the Terrace Home residents benefitting from access to private subtropical native landscapes.

&ldquo;140 Central Avenue will provide local residents in the highly desirable established suburb of Indooroopilly with an authentic subtropical architecture that connects people with their environment,&rdquo; Rothelowman said in their architecture plans.&quot;

&ldquo;The now heightened global awareness of the ecological importance for humanity&rsquo;s relationship with the planet can be addressed holistically through both lifestyle choices and people&rsquo;s relationship with evolved urban living environments.&rdquo;

<img alt="" height="872" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-07-28_at_1.50.43_pm.png" width="2198" />

&ldquo;In this project all aspects of the architecture and interiors are conceived as one and with a humanist agenda. Design strategies are employed in plan and three dimensions to promote connection with nature, natural light, ventilation and sense of space within all apartments.&quot;

Crowning the seven-storey tower facing Central Ave will be a residential rooftop space, complete with a pool and landscaped garden.

The development is also set to comprise a gym, sauna, children&rsquo;s play area and informal work-from-home spaces across the site as well.

Between the city and the bush: What it's like living in Indooroopilly

The South East Queensland developer, Keylin Group, has acquired a prime 5,385 sqm Indooroopilly aggregation for $18.6 million.

The sites, at 11 Riverview Terrace and 12 Foxton Street, as well as 30, 40 and 44 Station Road, are located seven&nbsp;kilometres west of Brisbane&rsquo;s CBD.

KeylinTM Managing Director, Louis Cheung, said the aggregation&rsquo;s location is 80m to Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, 170m to Indooroopilly train station, 3.9km to the University of Queensland as well as access to three major arterial roads made it one of the most significant development opportunities in Brisbane&rsquo;s inner city.

&ldquo;An amalgamation of this quality is very special and incredibly rare,&rdquo; Cheung said.

&ldquo;The size and location of the site allows the development of an integrated mixed-use project, incorporating residential with world-class rooftop amenity to enjoy the river views to the south, commercial office accommodation, and ground floor dining.

<img alt="" height="1131" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/indooropilly_amalgamation_2.jpg" width="800" />

&ldquo;A portion of residences will be dedicated to Build to Rent, recognising the strong demand for quality rental accommodation close key transport nodes, Indooroopilly Shopping Centre and leading state and private schools.

&ldquo;By acquiring the aggregation in one-line we can achieve a far enhanced outcome that focuses on integrating leading architecture, extensive landscaping, and complementary uses.

&ldquo;We are excited about the opportunity to create a community within the heart of Indooroopilly, a suburb which offers excellent education, retail and transport amenities.&rdquo;

The aggregation is zoned Mixed Use and Medium Density Residential.

Keylin&rsquo;s current development portfolio includes the $140 million ORIA Spring Hill residential high-rise on Gregory Terrace; the Serenity 4212 master planned community in Helensvale; and the Coomera Town Centre South precinct, which is currently in the planning phase and will be delivered in stages in a joint venture with Kinstone Group.

“An amalgamation of this quality is very special and incredibly rare,” Cheung said

Keylin secure prime Indooroopilly development site 

The established property investor and developer, Centa Property Group, has lodged plans to create a striking apartment development in Brisbane&#39;s Indooroopilly.

Rothelowman has put together the designs for the 12-level building at 4-12 Lambert Road and 7 Railway Avenue, which will have 95 apartments.

Typical for the renowned architecture firm&#39;s inner-city projects, they are set to revitalize&nbsp;the ground floor, creating a mini-retail precinct for four tenancy spaces, and locate the residential amenity on the roof.

The project will be Centa&#39;s first in Brisbane, having recently developed a few buildings on the Gold Coast.

Centa Director Jason Yuen said that in&nbsp;recent years they had&nbsp;noticed great developments&nbsp;taking place in South Brisbane and the Fortitude&nbsp;Valley/Newstead region.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/4-12-lambert-road-indooroopilly-qld-4068"><img alt="" height="918" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-03-14_at_9.59.19_am.png" width="1240" /></a>

&quot;When we acquired this site in 2020, we saw an&nbsp;opportunity to be pioneers in delivering a sensational project for the Indooroopilly community,&quot; Yuen told Urban.

&quot;We also noticed there was a lack of/shortage in apartment living, catering for the down-sizers and acreage owners moving closer to the city, but still able to send their children to University and private schools whilst still enjoying the amenity they have always had.

&quot;The site is within close proximity&nbsp;to some of Brisbane&#39;s best schools, the iconic Indooroopilly shopping centre, two major golf courses, the University of Queensland, the Witton Barracks park which will be soon upgraded by Brisbane City Council.

&quot;We see this is a true transit-oriented development that is designed to bring people, activities, public space and amenities together.&quot;

The terracotta building will be made up of two and three-bedroom apartments, with over a quarter of the apartments having a multi-purpose room.

The rooftop will home a swimming pool and adjoining wading pool, a designated space for outdoor dining and a barbecue area, an outdoor gym space, and a yoga lawn.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/4-12-lambert-road-indooroopilly-qld-4068"><img alt="" height="600" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/indooroopilly.jpg" width="900" /></a>

Rothelowman advise in their submission to the Brisbane City Council that the liveability of each dwelling is embodied in the architecture.

&quot;Consideration and analysis for how each space will be occupied throughout the day is reflected in the design of a series of indoor and outdoor rooms,&quot; Rothelowman note.

&quot;The apartment experience is created by the sectional relationship between interior and exterior space.

&quot;A downturn landscaped planter with occupiable Juliette balcony to the east and west facades moderates views, western summer sun and creates privacy.

&quot;The architecture becomes the interior and the interior becomes the architecture.&quot;

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/4-12-lambert-road-indooroopilly-qld-4068"><img alt="" height="868" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-03-14_at_9.59.04_am.png" width="1220" /></a>

Active frontages are provided to Lambert Road and Railway Avenue to promote street life at the ground plane.

&quot;Places for incidental interaction and relaxation enhance the opportunity for walkability and social interaction along the Railway Avenue Precinct,&quot; Rothelowman added.

A landscaped laneway extends the active frontage into the site to promote permeability.

Centa, who invest in both commercial and residential property, has been acquiring the Lambert Street amalgamation since late 2020.

Most recently Centa, founded in 1978&nbsp;by Henry Yuen, has been developing on the Gold Coast.

Their last project, Summit 110, on the Broadwater in Labrador, completed in 2020. Before that they developed Spice Broadbeach, the 57-apartment development&nbsp;which was finished in 2017.

Centa is currently working on another residential mid-rise development project on the Gold Coast. &nbsp;We have 2 x retail projects and 1 x land sub division under construction at the moment.&nbsp;

The terracotta building will be made up of two and three-bedroom apartments, with over a quarter of the apartments having a multi-purpose room

Centa Property Group submit Rothelowman-designed Indooroopilly apartment plans

Ethereal Residences, located in the&nbsp;leafy riverside suburb Indooroopilly, is a brand-new addition to the Brisbane&#39;s&nbsp;affluent western suburbs.

The Swann Road development of just 46 apartments is aimed at the owner occupier, suiting the upsizer, downsizer, and even the first home buyer demographic.

Designed in collaboration between Rothelowman and Carr Design, Ethereal Residence&nbsp;is pitched as lofty and light, and is named ethereal after the way the project&nbsp;appears to float above the lush landscape below.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184166]

Urban has had a look at the project in finer detail and highlighted the key five drivers for buyers.

1. Thoughtful interiors

At Ethereal, Carr Design has created serene environments in the project&rsquo;s interior design, detail, scale and proportion.

&ldquo;The material palette that we&rsquo;ve chosen for Ethereal, relate to the colours and the palette that are drawn literally from nature&rdquo;, Carr&rsquo;s Chris McCue said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184948]

No matter which scheme residents choose, the tone and texture connect back to the Brisbane locale,

In the dark scheme, a rich materiality connects to the exterior fa&ccedil;ade and the urban streetscape, while the lighter scheme, through its sandy-coloured texture, alludes to the coastal energy of the Brisbane shoreline.

2. Elevated views

Residents of the Indooroopilly development enjoy elevated views thanks to the amazing opportunity that the topography presents.

All apartments offer expansive views across leafy, vegetated suburban contexts, with views to the north, east, south-east, and south.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184950]

Rothelowman architect Duncan Betts notes that residences have generous connections to the outdoors through expansive verandah space.

&ldquo;Most apartments have a 270-degree aspect from their living, dining [and] kitchen, which I think is a unique offering&rdquo;, he said.

3. Green neighbourhood 

&ldquo;When people arrive to Ethereal, they&rsquo;ll feel that it sits beautifully in the landscape; the greenness, the lushness, the established canopies,&rdquo; FORM&#39;s landscape designer Matt Franzmann said.

Ethereal&#39;s landscaping was designed to provide&nbsp;a dense, green neighbourhood feel, with a series of smaller courtyards at ground-level.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184165]

Other green areas include rooftop recreation areas, elevated vegetation and canopy tree-lined spaces.

&ldquo;We want people to be able to have different opportunities to socialise, whether they just want to go up with their [partner] and have a glass of wine, or meet up with a group of friends&rdquo;, Franzmann said.

4. Great location

Situated less than seven kilometres from the Brisbane CBD, Indooroopilly boasts absolute convenience while still preserving a nice, quiet suburban feel.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184164]

The dynamic landscape of Indooroopilly is one that is relaxed and comfortable, with the largest demographic recorded as independent youth.

Ethereal is in close proximity to both the University of Queensland and the Queensland University of Technology, as well as a selection of private and secondary schools.

5. Spacious floorplans

With all floorplans featuring at least two bathrooms, and some with an additional study, spacious layouts provide room for the whole family.

Expected to reach completion in late 2023, Ethereal creates meaningful experiences thanks to its bespoke and high-quality interiors and architecture.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184949]

&ldquo;People will appreciate the quality and the bespoke, customised approach through the balustrade details, the curvilinear &ndash; almost draped concrete, high-quality brick, interplayed with the nice accents of dark metal&rdquo;, said Betts.

&ldquo;It&rsquo;s an aspirational piece.&rdquo;

Five reasons Ethereal Residences in Indooroopilly should be on a buyer's shortlist

A new architectural landmark is set to rise above Swann Road in Indooroopilly after receiving planning approval from Brisbane City Council.

Located at 97 Swann Road, Ethereal Residences by North is a cross-studio collaboration between Rothelowman, Carr Design and Form Landscape Architects and will deliver a collection of 46 two- bedroom, two-bedroom plus multi-purpose room, and three-bedroom apartments.

The low-rise building forms are terraced down the hillside to maximise outlook, orientation and privacy, with direct street frontage to Swann Road, Burns Street and Rennie Street.

North Managing Director, Scott Ginnivan, said the vision for Ethereal Residences is to deliver an exceptional standard of architecture to Brisbane&rsquo;s inner west that celebrates its elevated position.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184163]

&ldquo;For Ethereal Residences, we have brought together three highly respected design houses to create a concept worthy of its premium inner west location,&rdquo; Ginnivan said.

&ldquo;The site is surrounded by low density zoning and a beautiful, quintessentially Brisbane landscape and it was important to us that final design outcome was of a scale and design that complemented the area.

&ldquo;The draped, scalloped balustrades are a key architectural feature that amplifies the sense of panorama, curating views to both the Brisbane CBD and across established, leafy suburbs towards to the Border Ranges and Mount Barney.

&ldquo;Here, large balconies provide a sense of generosity and space that feels more like a verandah on a house and enables the building to &lsquo;breathe&rsquo;.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184164]

Ginnivan said Brisbane&rsquo;s suburban property market has matured significantly in recent years and with this has come high expectations for design and value.

&ldquo;Good architecture is all about authenticity and creating places where people want to live,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;The market&rsquo;s expectations are high and there&rsquo;s a maturity and appreciation for design that wasn&rsquo;t here five years ago.

&ldquo;Ethereal Residences delivers a premium collection of residences for owner-occupiers and downsizers, with the advantages of highly considered and curated design throughout.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184165]

Ethereal Residences is located 2.8 kilometres from the University of Queensland, 1.4 kilometres from Indooroopilly Shopping Centre and 7.5 kilometres from the Brisbane CBD. It is also located only minutes from Ironside State School, St Peters Lutheran College, Brisbane Boys College, and Brigidine College.

Private resident amenities include a plunge pool, barbecue area and extensive landscaping.

Ethereal&nbsp; will be formally launched to the market by Colliers International in early 2022.

Indooroopilly to welcome luxury apartment development, Ethereal Residences

The leafy Brisbane suburb of Indooroopilly is set for something rather special.

Three of&nbsp;Australia&#39;s best architecture and design firms have been enlisted by the local developer, North, to create the boutique apartment development, Ethereal Residences, a collection of just 46 apartments.

Rothelowman, Carr and FORM Landscape Architect, each arguably at the top of the pile in their respected crafts, have collaborated to create what will no doubt be one of the city&#39;s most in demand apartment projects.

Ethereal - defined as extremely delicate and light in a way that seems not to be of this world -&nbsp;terraces&nbsp;down the hillside to maximise outlook, orientation and privacy, with direct street frontage to Swann Road, Burns Street and Rennie Street.

North Managing Director, Scott Ginnivan, said the vision for Ethereal Residences is to deliver an exceptional standard of architecture to Brisbane&rsquo;s inner west that celebrates its elevated position.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184164]

&ldquo;For Ethereal Residences, we have brought together three highly respected design houses to create a concept worthy of its premium inner west location,&rdquo; Ginnivan said.

&ldquo;The site is surrounded by low density zoning and a beautiful, quintessentially Brisbane landscape and it was important to us that final design outcome was of a scale and design that complemented the area.

Rothelowman&#39;s approach to the architecture was simple, asking &quot;What elements of the Queensland House can we re-interpret and apply to the apartment typology?&quot;

The continuation of tower columns and wrapping of the balconies evokes the Queenslander vernacular of raised stilts and outdoor living.

&quot;When people arrive to Ethereal, they&#39;ll feel it sits beautifully in the landscape,&quot; Rothelowman Principal Duncan Betts says.

&quot;The greenness, the lushness of the established canopies, it&#39;s something that you don&#39;t get in new neighbourhoods - its something that takes 50 years to develop, and you just cant buy that context.

Betts said&nbsp;the topography presented an amazing opportunity, because all the apartments will have elevated views, with city views to the north and leafy vegetated suburban views to the south and south east.

&quot;It&#39;s got generous connection with a verandah space - most apartments have a 270 degree aspect from their living dining kitchen which is a unique offering.&quot;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109830 project_image_fid=184163]

Betts added that people will appreciate the quality in the bespoke customised approach, through the balustrade details, the curvilinear, and&nbsp;the almost draped concrete.

Carr&#39;s Directer of Architecture, Chris McCue, who handled the interiors, said the material palette chosen - relates to colours and palette drawn literally form nature.

&quot;In each of the schemes there&#39;s tone and texture, either through a dark scheme and a richness in materiality, or in the lighter scheme there&#39;s a sandy coloured texture and tonality that&#39;s consistent throughout the whole palette,&quot; McCue said.

He suggested that&nbsp;part of designing an apartment project in Brisbane is responding to the way light spills in to the building.

&quot;Whether it be the porcelain&nbsp;or the timber floor, right through to the travertine, we really wanted to bring a consistency and a luxurious quality to the materials.

&quot;We want to create thee beautiful serene environments and a lot of that comes to the interior design detail, scale and proportion of the spaces.&quot;

Matt Franzmann, who heads up FORM Landscaping, says the&nbsp;process of the collaboration between the three camps&nbsp;has really led to a cohesive design.

The vegetation and landscaping was one of the key factors in creating the suburban feel of the development, despite it being just seven kilometres to the CBD.

&quot;There&#39;s a lot of native eucalyps&nbsp;that provide a very elevated vegetation,&quot; Franzmann said.

&quot;We also get the seasonal colour like the Jacaranda&#39;s and the Poinciana&#39;s.&nbsp;The Lilly Pillies really provide that dense, green neighbourhood feel.&quot;

They brought in canopy trees and subtropical species like Philodendrons.

For the rooftop,&nbsp;Franzmann said they wanted to create a space where there are different opportunities to socialise, whether&nbsp;residents wanted to go up to the roof have a glass of wine, or meet up with a group of friends.

They surrounded the series of smaller courtyards on the ground level with vegetation to keep them private.

Colliers agent Andrew Roubicek is marketing Ethereal.

Ginnivan said Brisbane&rsquo;s suburban property market has matured significantly in recent years and with this has come high expectations for design and value.

&ldquo;Good architecture is all about authenticity and creating places where people want to live,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;The market&rsquo;s expectations are high and there&rsquo;s a maturity and appreciation for design that wasn&rsquo;t here five years ago.&quot;

Rothelowman's approach to the architecture was simple, asking "What elements of the Queensland House can we re-interpret and apply to the apartment typology?"
