Brisbane buyers account for almost two-thirds of the 44 residences sold ahead of the official launch, with the Penthouse Series now released.
Brisbane owner-occupiers are leading early sales at Solais Residences, Tom Dooley Developments’ $486m project in Newstead. Forty-four residences have sold for more than $154.4m ahead of the official market launch.
Almost two-thirds of purchasers have come from Brisbane suburbs. The result marks a milestone for Solais as the project moves to its official launch.
Construction is underway on the 29-level tower at 176 Breakfast Creek Road, with completion scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2028. At the Solais Sales Gallery, on the rooftop of the neighbouring Breakfast Creek Lifestyle Precinct, prospective purchasers can inspect purpose-built kitchens and bathrooms showcasing the planned finishes.
Designed by Plazibat Architects, Solais occupies a 2,500sqm site overlooking heritage-listed Newstead House and Newstead Park, with protected views across dual reaches of the Brisbane River. Its 164 homes comprise 144 residences and 20 penthouses.
The residences include 51 two-bedroom residences from $1.698m, 63 two-bedroom plus multi-purpose room residences from $1.977m and 30 three-bedroom residences from $2.964m.
The Penthouse Series, released as part of the official launch, comprises 18 three-bedroom plus multi-purpose room penthouses from $5.503m and two four-bedroom plus multi-purpose room penthouses from $7.197m.
Tom Dooley Developments founder and Managing Director Tom Dooley said achieving more than $154.4m in sales before the official launch showed the depth of demand for Solais.
