Rollin’ on the river

Riverfront Residences has been designed specifically for the Carrara owner-occupier

A COLLECTION of luxury riverfront apartments is set to hit the market in Carrara.

Brisbane-based developer, QY Development is behind Riverfront Residences, which will incorporate 106 apartments in two six-level buildings.

The development at 574–586 Nerang Broadbeach Rd, includes an infinity pool and timber boardwalk on the river’s edge, terrace and outdoor gym, an outdoor kitchen and barbecue area, residents’ jetty and kayak, paddleboard and jet ski storage.

One, two, and three bedroom apartments will start from $375,000.

QY Developments director Michael Guo said it was exciting to create a development with on and off-site recreational facilities for the Gold Coast market.

“We wanted to create a space where residents can enjoy luxurious apartment living along with recreational opportunities all within walking distance of their home, to promote the active, healthy community lifestyle that Queensland and the Gold Coast are renowned for,” he said.

“We have assembled a team of leading development industry specialists to create Riverfront Residences and make the most of the riverfront position.

“Award-winning Brisbane architects Kris Kowalski Architects and internationally recognised project managers Gleeds are key consultants on the project.”

All apartments feature modern open-plan and spacious interiors, and flexible configurations designed to meet the needs of a variety of lifestyles, and are particularly focused around owner-occupier living.

Riverfront Residences marketing manager and Total Property Group managing director, Adrian Parsons, said the new development offered a unique riverfront opportunity for local buyers who aspired to live on the river.

“Interest in Carrara from homebuyers is nearly double the Queensland average, as it is one of Gold Coast’s most diverse residential suburbs,” he said.

“Carrara is home to several prestigious golf courses, including Emerald Lakes Golf Club, and the Royal Pines Golf Course directly across the river.

“The site is in a highly desirable northfacing riverfront location with easy access to Pacific Fair, Broadbeach and Robina Town Centre, and Brisbane commuters have easy access to the M1 and Nerang train station just a few kilometres to the west.

“Many new apartment developments are targeted to investors, yet the focus of Riverfront Residences is to provide a haven for owner-occupiers.”
