Some of the most sought-after developments over the last six months have been in the small Gold Coast enclave of Kirra Beach.

Miles Residences, the residential arm of the KTQ's Group's $380 million redevelopment of the Kirra Beach Hotel, had the area abuzz with interest late last year.

More recently there was the quick-fire sell out of Spyre Group's Cala Dei, the redevelopment of the Komune Resort around the corner.

And now the Gold Coast developer Marquee Development Partners are set to put their stamp on the area, with plans approved by the Gold Coast City Council for a new residential tower.

The tower, dubbed SOL Kirra Beach located at 133-135 Musgrave Street, will rise 11 levels and have 46 two, three and four bedroom apartments. 

Not set to launch to the market until June 26, Marquee have already been inundated with enquiries from their database, some 1,600 prospective buyers over the last few weeks.

“We’ve witnessed an astounding level of interest for our latest project in Kirra within mere weeks of receiving council approval,” said Marquee Development Partners sales director Azura Griffen.

“This Kirra site is absolutely magnificent, and we’re excited to do it justice by delivering our signature luxury residences that package the Gold Coast dream into an ultra-desirable home.”

The award-winning, Brisbane-based architecture firm Arkhefield have created the tower, with the primary focus to capture the view corridors of Kirra Beach, Kirra Headland, Pacific Ocean, and Coolangatta from its elevated headland position.

Arkhefield drew inspiration from the surrounding natural landscapes of Kirra, Greenmount and Snapper to inform the composition – reflecting the ocean meeting and shaping the land.

Each balcony is designed to capture the unique ocean views. 

The resident amenity was inspired by Palm Springs and the iconic 60’s Gold Coast aesthetic. The pool area is surrounded by mature landscaping, poolside lounges, sunbeds and cabanas. There is also an outdoor lounge, dining room and barbecue facilities.

SOL is the last development on the Kirra Headland, with Marquee acquiring the site from a family who had been at the Musgrave Street property for over 45 years.
