Developer David Devine selects Gowdie Management Group to construct $535 million Burly Residences.
Property developer David Devine has announced the appointment of Gowdie Management Group (GMG) as the builder for the anticipated Burly Residences, a luxury residential apartment tower valued at $535 million. The project is set to rise on a prominent beachfront site at North Burleigh in the south of the Gold Coast.
Positioned on a 2,024-square-metre double beachfront site along the esplanade, the 25-level, six-star apartment development has already completed the initial groundwork. Devine and his team at DD Living are reimagining this prime coastal location, which features 40 metres of beach frontage in a coveted owner-occupier area.
Following demolition, services relocation and basement retention, GMG is now ready to proceed with the next construction phases at Burly Residences, with completion scheduled for 2027.
Over the past two decades, GMG has established a strong presence across major Australian cities, including Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.
Led by John Gowdie, who boasts over 30 years of experience in the Australian construction landscape, GMG has a history of delivering various significant projects. Gowdie’s early career included tenure with prominent companies, such as Lendlease and Walter Corporation, before founding GMG in 2004.
Devine, a long-time friend of Gowdie, noted that Gowdie’s reputation for “integrity and commitment to excellence” made him the obvious choice in the current market to be at the helm of this project.
“Much has happened since we formally launched Burly Residences to the market, and I am very proud of the progress we have made to date and I am proud to announce our selection of Gowdie Management Group as the builder for the project,” he said.
“We are pleased to be working with a construction company of such high calibre for the delivery of Burly Residences to the elite standard we designed.”
Gowdie, expressed his enthusiasm for the project, aligning his vision with Devine’s shared commitment to quality development.
“Burly Residences is a masterpiece of coastal luxury designed by the acclaimed Koichi Takada Architects that promises to be Burleigh’s most distinguished address,” he said.
“I’m proud to lead our team as we bring Burly Residences to life. I look forward to the progression of this project as construction continues towards completion of this iconic building that presents a new level of luxury for North Burleigh.”
Gowdie has assembled a Gold Coast construction team seasoned in luxury apartment projects to ensure the highest construction standards for Burley Residences, having previously completed developments like White Main Beach and Flow Residences in Rainbow Bay.
The project is marketed by luxury apartment marketing specialist TOTAL Property Group, which welcomes GMG’s appointment.
Adrian Parsons, managing director at TOTAL Property Group, highlighted the importance of requiring a construction company that property buyers trust.
“A landmark beachfront building of this calibre requires a top-tier builder with strong capabilities, and prestige property buyers have comfort in knowing GMG has been appointed as the builder of Burly Residences,” he said.
Burly Residences, unique to the North Burleigh market, boasts 40 meters of beach frontage with two levels dedicated to luxurious resort-style amenities. These amenities include swimming pools, a gym, a yoga lounge, a teppanyaki bar and a private cinema, among other offerings.
The development will feature 101 high-end two-, three- and four-bedroom apartments, ranging
from 116 square metres to 743 square metres, making them some of the largest available in the Gold Coast region.
With outstanding balcony sizes that can reach up to 106 square metres, these residences offer ample entertainment space.
Current listings for apartments at Burly Residences range from $2,405,500 to $13,895,300, with options for expansive floor plans that incorporate multipurpose rooms.
