The two most expensive sales of the week were whole-floor units in the same building in Queensland’s Kangaroo Point.

The 15-level 1 Scott Street building sits on the south bank of the Brisbane River near the Story Bridge. The fifth-storey apartment (pictured above) sold for $4.13 million, and the 10th-storey apartment (pictured below) sold for $4.62 million.

The near-identical apartments sold on the day the tender closed. They were bought by locally based owner-occupiers. The project approval was secured by the Brisbane developers Waterford Properties with a design by architects Jackson Teece and construction by Hutchinson Builders.

Agent Denise Gustafson from Style Estate Agents says there are no more apartments left in the 2011-built building, with all 12 selling for between $4 million and $8 million.

The apartments were held off the market last year to see if the economy improved. Gustafon says this year there has been a campaign with two tenders every five weeks.

The apartments are both 432 square metres, including a 116-square-metre balcony.

NSW dominated the rest of this week’s 10 most expensive property sales, taking six spots on RPData’s list.

Four-bedroom houses featured strongly on the list, accounting for five of the sales. The remaining positions were taken by a three bedroom unit, a three bedroom house and a five bedroom house.
