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’s inner west that celebrates its elevated position.

“For Ethereal Residences, we have brought together three highly respected design houses to create a concept worthy of its premium inner west location,” Ginnivan said.

“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.

“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.

“Here, large balconies provide a sense of generosity and space that feels more like a verandah on a house and enables the building to ‘breathe’.”

Ginnivan said Brisbane’s suburban property market has matured significantly in recent years and with this has come high expectations for design and value.

“Good architecture is all about authenticity and creating places where people want to live,” he said.

“The market’s expectations are high and there’s a maturity and appreciation for design that wasn’t here five years ago.

“Ethereal Residences delivers a premium collection of residences for owner-occupiers and downsizers, with the advantages of highly considered and curated design throughout.”

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  will be formally launched to the market by Colliers International in early 2022.
