Main Beach apartments

The penthouse offering atop Main Beach’s luxury ARI residential tower was unveiled this week.

The two-level design boasts a private rooftop terrace with a pool, spa and barbecue facilities, for the exclusive use of the penthouse owner, along with space to lounge in the open air.

Set on levels 18 and 19, the penthouse and rooftop expose 360-degree views spanning the Pacific Ocean, the city skyline, the Broadwater, and the <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/gold-coast-qld">Gold Coast</a> hinterland.

The Melbourne-based Stamoulis Property Group is developing the project, which has been designed by Bayden Goddard's&nbsp;BGD Architects.

Kollosche's Michael Kollosche, who is selling <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/ari-3555-main-beach-parade-main-beach">ARI</a> with Harry Kakavas, said there are few comparable penthouses on the Gold Coast market.

“We’re expecting strong interest from buyers who want the best of location, lifestyle and luxury in one package,” Kollosche says.

“To acquire a penthouse in a luxury boutique residential building, with its own private rooftop, on a triple block with 30-metre beach frontage truly is a rare opportunity.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112163 project_image_fid=217021]

Priced at $19.75 million, the sprawling penthouse suite spans 759 sqm in total, 436 sqm of internal living space and a further 296 sqm of outdoor living.

There are three living areas and a dining area, a gourmet kitchen plus a scullery, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, a separate study, a powder room, and five car spaces.

The penthouse has soaring 4.5-metre ceilings and full-height glass windows which curve around the open plan main living and dining area, taking&nbsp;full advantage of views to South Stradbroke Island and south to <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/coolangatta-qld">Coolangatta</a>.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112163 project_image_fid=217019]

The residents-only tower comprises 26 half-floor residences and three full-floor sky homes. Half-floor apartments with three bedrooms start from 288 sqm and range in size to 325 sqm, while full-floor apartments with four bedrooms range in size from 567 sqm to 618 sqm.

Kollosche said that current demand had seen a number of half-floor residences amalgamated.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/ari-3555-main-beach-parade-main-beach">ARI</a> residents will enjoy exclusive access to resort-class amenities including a heated 25-metre lap pool, a gym, steam room, sauna, cold plunge pool, residents lounge and business centre.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112163 project_image_fid=216350]

More than half of the available apartments in ARI have sold since the project launched in May.

Kollosche said buyers have responded to the absolute beachfront location, the architectural design, the high standard of finish, and uninterrupted ocean view lines.

“Brand new apartments on the absolute beachfront are few in <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/main-beach-qld">Main Beach</a> and redevelopment options are even fewer,” Kollosche says.

“The <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/main-beach-qld">Main Beach lifestyle</a> is a major drawcard for owner-occupiers with the beach and the Tedder Avenue village centre all on the doorstep.

“Nearby Marina Mirage and The Spit precinct are earmarked for major redevelopment in coming years which only adds to the value of any investment in Main Beach.”

ARI apartments are priced from $5.9 million.

UK Royal's $250 million Masthead Ocean Club display suite officially opens 

The allure of downsizing from a spacious acreage lifestyle to a sleek and modern apartment has led the Turner family to make a significant change after 20 years of living in the Moreton Bay Region of Brisbane.

Their recent purchase of a 131 sqm two-bedroom plus multi-purpose room apartment in the Lagoon development has set the stage for their new chapter.

The journey to finding their dream home began with a simple internet search, which eventually led them to fill out an inquiry for Lagoon.

According to the Turners', it was the location of the development that first caught their attention. However, several factors worked in harmony to solidify their decision.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=193023]

"We looked for 18 months and narrowed down the location for our next move to Teneriffe, Milton/Toowong, Broadbeach and Main Beach," the Turners' said.

"We were looking at established developments, townhouses, units, and houses on small blocks, through to new developments"

Although they came close to purchasing elsewhere, the Turner's had a strong gut feeling that Lagoon was the ideal choice for them.

"We went close to buying others, but we just knew that Lagoon was our preferred development."

The location played a massive role in their decision making process, while the building's&nbsp;design, size, and ample space within the apartment sealed the deal.&nbsp;

"We were also confident to purchase as we have faith in Hutchies delivering the product, in part due to the really good level of pre sales that had occurred at the time we bought."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=190743]

The excitement surrounding the Turner's move to Main Beach and their new home in Lagoon is palpable.

"We have gone from saying, 'if only we could live in Main Beach' and 'maybe when the kids finish school,' to 'we are moving to Main Beach, we are moving into Lagoon, and we are so excited,'" the couple shared.

Their anticipation for the completion of the development is evident, with the Turners' using a photo of the building as their iPhone screensaver for daily motivation. They also receive regular updates from residents in the area, who share their excitement for the project.

"I hate wishing our lives away, but 2025 can't come soon enough," they added.

As the Turners' story demonstrates, Lagoon has managed to check all the boxes for discerning buyers looking for a new beginning.

The development's seamless blend of location, architectural brilliance, and the promise of an exceptional living experience has made it the preferred choice for those ready to embark on their next chapter in Main Beach.

From Brisbane acreage to Main Beach apartment: Why Lagoon Main Beach ticks the downsizer box

Drew Group's Main Beach apartment development, Lagoon, is creating quite a buzz among buyers with its incredible value proposition.

The project has released its final collection of one-bedroom apartments, and they are proving to be a hit due to their spacious layouts and attractive price point.

The one-bedders span 93 sqm in total, making them some of the most spacious one-bedroom apartments on the Gold Coast market. They are priced from $745,000, which equates to $8,000 per sqm.&nbsp;

The lack of one-bedders currently available in the market is also driving strong buyer interest to Lagoon, with the one-beds also coming with one car space.

Pezet Matheson are marketing Lagoon, with Managing Director Jayde Pezet saying new one-bedroom apartments are increasingly scarce across the Gold Coast, primarily due to lack of space for car parking in basements and development sites becoming smaller. &nbsp;

"Lagoon offers purchasers an opportunity to secure a rarely available new one-bedroom apartment at an exceptional rate per sqm, so not only are people purchasing a unique property, but they are also realising incredible value in todays market,” Pezet&nbsp;said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=191661]

Crafted by Plus Architecture, there's only a limited collection of one-bed plus multi-purpose room apartments remaining in Lagoon, with each boasting northerly aspects.

The apartments benefit from adjoining balconies, which drench each residence with natural light, while also creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living.&nbsp;

The kitchens are home to suite of Smeg appliances, including an oven, dishwasher, and microwave, coupled with brushed nickel tapware, an abundance of storage space and an engineered stone island bench.&nbsp;

The homes also include separate laundry space with storage included, in addition to built-in robes to the bedrooms.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108747 project_image_fid=193023]

Positioned as the largest Main Beach apartment development in three decades, the $390 million twin-tower project was fast-tracked to the market in response to the overwhelming interest it has generated.

Apart from spacious apartments, Lagoon boasts an array of high-end amenities designed to complement the coastal way of life.

Residents will have access to a pool oasis complete with private cabanas, inviting indoor and outdoor lounges, a state-of-the-art fitness centre, a serene yoga deck, surfboard storage, a business hub, and a heated spa.&nbsp;

Construction is well underway, with Hutchinson Builders handling the build. The completion of Lagoon is expected in the third quarter of 2025.

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=108747]

The lack of one-bedders currently available in the market is also driving strong buyer interest to Lagoon, with the one-beds also coming with one car space
