Boutique city development launches public preview of absolute riverfront units

Future residents of one of the Brisbane River’s most prestige apartment buildings are now able to walk through a preview of their new boutique homes. A fully built preview of a unit in ARC Residences Toowong has been finished by developer Spyre Group, revealed over the weekend after a special early preview for purchasers.

Until now, buyers had only been working with off-the-plan renders of the future project, which is now near the end of its construction.

Only seven homes are left for purchase across the 24-unit tower, with interested parties now able to book an appointment to see what the homes will be like for themselves. Spyre founder Daniel Laruccia said this represented an important milestone for the project: offering potential buyers an example of their work’s quality, at a time of high demand for boutique inner-city homes.

“This is the moment ARC shifts from concept to reality,” he said. “Buyers can now walk through the space and properly understand the quality, scale and level of detail that has gone into every residence.

“With construction well advanced and only a limited number of residences remaining, we expect strong interest as buyers look to secure a position in one of Brisbane’s most tightly held new riverfront developments ahead of completion.”

Constructed by Graya, designed by Bureau^Proberts and with landscape architecture by CUSP, ARC’s absolute riverfront position offers views from St Lucia to South Brisbane; with a facade made to curve with and reflect the nearby water. Only one ‘St Lucia’ residence remains at $6m, with five three-bedroom ‘City’ units for sale at prices above $8.5m.

The final property yet to go for sale is the penthouse residence. While it has yet to go on the market, it is understood to sell for an estimate of more than $20m.
