CONSTRUCTION is underway at Immerse Projects’ residential project, Ombré Robina, just three months after its official launch.
The eight-storey Ombré Robina is located on Scottsdale Drive and comprises a mix of 95 one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments plus ground floor retail and commercial spaces.
Ombré Robina is located near major retail, education and employment centres, as well as Gold Coast beaches.
“The only way the sector can restore buyer confidence is to have the financial capacity and project partners to get construction underway early. Too many projects are gathering dust on the shelf and it’s hurting the industry,” said John Kearney, founder and managing director at Immerse Projects and co-director at Greyburn.
The project is now 50%, with more than 70% of purchasers made up of owner occupiers. With the development making $40 million in sales in just four weeks from its launch.
“Ombré is delivering high quality housing supply to the Gold Coast’s lifestyle-driven ‘middle market’, which has been overlooked in the rush by developers to cater exclusively to prestige buyers,” added Kearney.
“We launched the sales program in March and there are machines on the ground in June. Based on the current schedule, we’re expecting to welcome residents to their apartments in late 2025.”
Local builders Greyburn Building Contractors were appointed to deliver the project, having commenced early works on the site this week.
“Greyburn’s greatest strength is our local expert team, many of whom have been with us for decades, and their trusted supplier and trade networks,” added Kearney.
“It’s incredibly advantageous to be able to align the development and construction outcomes from the early conception of a project, shaving up to six months off the typical delivery process. This time saving equates to cost savings and added peace of mind for purchasers.”
One-bedroom apartments are priced from $749,000, with two-bedrooms starting at 829,000 and three-bedrooms from $1,230,000.
With private amenities including a residents’ lounge, function room, games room, spacious pool and landscaped outdoor spaces.
