Brisbane Developer Reveals Kangaroo Point Plans

Kangaroo Point Residential Development.

An application has been filed with Brisbane City Council for a complex Kangaroo Point residential block build involving protected buildings.

The submission asks for a material change of use for the site at 619-633 Main Street to transform the existing site in the inner-city suburb into a tiered building of between five and eight storeys.

If approved, it will comprise 50 units—21 one and 29 two-bedroom apartments. 

Kent Kp Trust, a vehicle of Brisbane developer and landowner Anthony Conomos, brought in Urban Strategies and Red Door Architecture to plan and design the site, which has a total area of 1994.8sq m with a residential site area of 1317sq m. 

There will be a podium and basement level car parking included, which will provide 62 car spaces and 58 bike spaces, with communal open space at the podium and rooftop levels. 

It is a “complex” development to undertake due to a number of protected buildings on site and has been divided into two applications.

The site is currently made up of five lots, each containing a residential building. One has been identified as a commercial character building, which will be retained and renovated as part of the application, and two are pre-1911 buildings. 

The “dilapidated” commercial character building will have any non-original, “unsympathetic” extensions removed and windows added to the ground-level facade.

This development application seeks to develop the western portion of the site for residential purposes, “of meritorious design” and provides a “strong response” to the relevant planning intentions for the site. 

However, there is currently a separate development application for the subject site involving the reuse of some of the existing buildings and construction of new buildings for commercial and retail purposes.

It will also involve the reconfiguration of lot boundaries to establish a balance parcel. 

The two projects are designed to take place fully within the balance lot to be created under the existing application.

The applications are not reliant on each other, allowing the developers the option of sealing the subdivision of the other application “to give additional certainty as to the outcome achieved across the site,” they said.

Despite the shortage of space at Kangaroo Point and Brisbane CBD generally, a number of developers have moved in with high rise residential offerings.

Pellicano won approval for its 86-apartment Story House development last year while Kenlynn also launched plans for a 15-storey apartment tower.
