Carr and bureau^proberts team up on Kangaroo Point luxury residences

Plans for five single-floor apartments on one of Kangaroo Point's last riverfront sites have been approved by Brisbane City Council. 

In a market-first, high-end residential developer Molti has confirmed Carr will be working with bureau^proberts to design each home's luxury interiors. 

The development will offer just five full-floor luxury residences boasting box seat views of the river, CBD and iconic Story Bridge. 

Molti Managing Director Ben Teague welcomes the approval and said demolition would start on site in the coming months, with an intention to start construction this year. 

"We are confident that what we're bringing to Kangaroo Point will captivate luxury property buyers and become a cherished future heirloom for its residents," he says. 

"The collaboration between bureau^proberts and Carr Design is a market first and will deliver a collection of five extraordinary full-floor homes that truly stand apart. 

"This development offers a front-row seat to Brisbane's iconic river and glittering city lights, crafted by some of Australia's most exceptional design talent." 

Molti has appointed WHITEFOX Brisbane, led by Phillip Rand, to manage the project's sales and marketing, which is anticipated to launch in the coming months. 

"With just five exclusive residences on offer at MacDonald Street, this development is defined by its rare positioning and impeccable design team," Rand says. 

"This site was a unique opportunity that rarely comes to market—and what Molti and the team at bureau^proberts and Carr Design are creating here will be testament to that, a true one-of-one opportunity." 

Kangaroo Point made headlines earlier this year, with the penthouse at local development Sorano House selling off the plan for a Brisbane record internal square metre rate of $45,000. 

"The luxury market in Kangaroo Point is one of the most tightly held in South East Queensland, with buyers recognising that the riverfront position, city views and connectivity make this one of Australia's most unique real estate locations," says Rand. 

Located at 4 MacDonald Street in Kangaroo Point, the project will remake a 797 square metre site that occupies one of the last remaining riverfront sites on the Kangaroo Point peninsula, and boasts never to be built out views of the city, river and Story Bridge. 

Situated 200 metres from the new Kangaroo Point bridge, the residences will benefit from some of the best connectivity in Brisbane city, while maintaining the privacy the peninsula offers. 

The bureau^proberts design takes inspiration from the iconic bridge and Kangaroo Point's subtropical riverside location, employing a strong curvature that pushes primary living spaces towards views of the river, parklands, bridge and city. 

Each residence will span almost 350 square metres and are enriched by elevated horizontal gardens that run the length of the fronting balconies, providing a soft and organic interface and link to James Warner Park below. 

Open plan living spaces are connected through breezeways providing natural light and ventilation, while master bedrooms are located on the northern side of the building, maximising city frontage and stunning views. 

Crowning the project is a penthouse rooftop with a spectacular infinity pool set amid verdant landscaping. 

Despite being home to just five residences, the building feature wellness amenities akin to that of a luxury wellness club. 

The development will come to market in the coming months.
