Plans for a boutique beachfront midrise apartment tower have been filed by Mosaic Property Group as its first foray into a Gold Coast development hotspot.
Indicative render only, subject to change.
The proposal by the Brisbane-based developer comprises 32 two and three-bedroom apartments across nine storeys at the northern end of Palm Beach.
It is earmarked for 1651sq m site at 1357 Gold Coast Highway, secured for an undisclosed sum from a family that had held it for almost 90 years.
Architecture studio Bureau Proberts was tapped to design a scheme for “a bespoke collection of home-sized meticulously crafted residences”.
“The proposed siting and design of the tower facilitates a slender built form…[with a] highly articulated building envelope,” the planning documents said.
With a strong focus on subtropical design, landscaping at the ground plane would continue up parts of the facade to “soften” and screen the built form. As well, a large feature tree is also planned for the north-western corner of the site.
“The proposed development capitalises on its proximity and views to the beachfront, while providing residents with privacy … and brings a sophisticated, resort-like design to apartment living in the suburb of Palm Beach,” the documents said.
Under the submitted plans, a mix of 7 two-bedroom and 25 three-bedroom units would be provided, all with large balconies.
Communal open space on level 2 would span 225sq m and comprise a pool with lounge chairs, sauna, magnesium spa and gym. Additionally, the ground-level lobby would include an informal space for residents and feature direct beach access for residents along the southern boundary with an outdoor shower.
Parking for 61 cars and 32 bicycles would be accommodated in the project’s two basement levels.
