Setting the Benchmark in Main Beach
Lagoon Residences, situated in the heart of Main Beach on a sprawling 4,000 square meters site, is not just a residential project; it's a benchmark for evolved luxury and responsible development. Drew Group, cognisant of the diverse market profiles, meticulously crafted the project to offer a wide range of options, including spacious three-bedroom apartments with media rooms. The emphasis on quality living is evident, with storage cages and an impressive 89% of apartments featuring two side-by-side car parks.

Sustainability as a Cornerstone
The commitment to excellence extends beyond aesthetics, with Lagoon Residences achieving a remarkable six-and-a-quarter Nat's Green Star rating. Sustainability is ingrained in the project's DNA, from fully double-glazed windows reducing thermal loads to the integration of solar panels for communal use, rainwater tanks for landscaping, and provisions for electric vehicles and charging systems. Drew Group's forward-thinking design not only caters to current demands but positions Lagoon Residences as a future-proof investment.

Shifting Paradigms: Owner-Occupiers in Focus
Jonathan Drew challenges the traditional segmentation of apartments as either investor or owner-occupier-centric. With a shift in market dynamics, more owner-occupiers are embracing apartment living, and Drew Group responded by creating homes within the apartment framework. The larger-sized apartments, designed with ample storage, spacious kitchens, and king-size bedrooms, resonate with those seeking a home within the vibrant community of Main Beach.

Progressive Partnerships and Efficient Approvals
Acknowledging the role of Gold Coast City Council in fostering progress, Jonathan Drew highlights their efficient collaboration, resulting in one of the fastest development approvals in a decade—just three months. The Council's progressive outlook and Drew Group's meticulous adherence to planning guidelines led to a harmonious approval process, setting a positive precedent for future developments.

Personal Commitment and Community Integration
Beyond professional success, Jonathan Drew underlines the personal commitment to Lagoon Residences. Family members and close friends are not just part of the project; they are moving in as residents. This personal stake underscores the immense responsibility Drew Group feels in delivering a residence that goes beyond expectations.

For those considering investing in Lagoon Residences, Jonathan Drew advises seeking developers with a proven track record, reputable builders like Hutchinson, and projects under construction. Lagoon Residences epitomizes the perfect alignment of experience, expertise, and personal commitment, making it a standout choice for those seeking luxury living on the Gold Coast.
