Florian Rise has recorded strong early sales momentum, with more than 71 per cent of Stage One sold within just four weeks of officially launching to the market, reinforcing significant demand for apartment living in Brisbane’s established suburb of Rochedale.
Stage One of the masterplanned apartment community has achieved 44 sales across its 62-apartment release, marking a strong market response to Rochedale’s first apartment offering.
Buyer demographics at Florian Rise reflect a broad cross-section of the market, including owner-occupiers, downsizers, investors and first-home buyers, highlighting the development’s wide appeal.
Owner-occupiers are driving demand at Florian Rise, accounting for 76 per cent of buyers, including 17 per cent first-home buyers, while the remaining 24 per cent comprises local investors, including one purchaser who has secured multiple apartments within the development.
Developed by Pask, Florian Rise, located at 41 Skyview Avenue, Rochedale, is introducing a new style of low-maintenance living to the suburb, with Stage One comprising Aster Apartments, offering 24 residences across three levels, and Banksia Apartments, with 38 residences across five levels.
The apartment collection includes two-bedroom, two-bedroom plus multi-purpose room, three-bedroom and four-bedroom residences, with prices starting from $971,000 and completion anticipated in Q4, 2027.
Luxury apartment marketing specialist TOTAL Property Group is presenting Florian Rise to the market, with Managing Director Adrian Parsons saying the development’s early success highlights a clear shift in buyer demand across Brisbane’s southern suburbs.
“We’ve seen an exceptional response since launch, with over half of Stage One secured within the first four weeks, which is a strong result for a first-of-its-kind apartment development in Rochedale.
“Florian Rise is appealing to a wide range of buyers, from younger first-home purchasers entering the market to downsizers seeking spacious apartment living with wellness-focused amenities.
“Importantly, the majority of buyers are local residents from Rochedale and surrounding suburbs, accounting for 47 per cent of purchasers, with the remaining 53 per cent coming from across the broader Brisbane market.
“This demonstrates a clear demand from owner-occupiers who are looking to stay within their local community while transitioning to a more low-maintenance lifestyle offering.”
“The combination of a masterplanned environment, generous apartment sizes and resort-style amenities is resonating strongly with buyers who are prioritising lifestyle and long-term liveability,” Mr Parsons said.
Designed in collaboration with leading architects Ellivo, Florian Rise is a masterplanned community of 188 apartments across five buildings on a 14,800sqm site, with a strong emphasis on landscaped open space and wellness-focused amenities.
Florian Rise is positioned on one of Rochedale’s highest naturally elevated sites, with some apartments enjoying far-reaching outlooks that extend to the Brisbane city skyline.
The wellness amenities Florian Rise offers include over one acre of landscaped gardens and shared amenities within the Garden Club, comprising walking paths, an expansive multi-purpose lawn, a resort-style 20-metre pool, lounges, spa and sauna, a gymnasium, BBQ areas, and sheltered outdoor pavilions for entertaining.
A dedicated community clubhouse within the Banksia building provides flexible spaces for residents to utilise for work, social connection and recreation, supporting the evolving lifestyle needs.
Pask Development Director John Curtis said the strong sales result reflects both the quality of the development and the long-term vision for the Rochedale community.
“Florian Rise represents a significant evolution in housing for Rochedale, introducing apartment living within a new masterplan community to the suburb for the first time while building on the success of our broader Arise community and offering residents the opportunity to downsize, right-size or invest in a high-quality apartment without leaving the area they know.
“The integration of one acre of landscaped gardens, together with shared amenities including the clubhouse, pool and wellness facilities, has been carefully designed to create a connected community while still allowing residents to enjoy their own privacy.
“The response to Florian Rise since launch has been extremely encouraging and reflects the strength of demand for well-designed, low-maintenance homes with extensive wellness-focused lifestyle amenities within a thoughtfully planned community in the established Rochedale suburb,” Mr Curtis said.
Florian Rise, located at 41 Skyview Avenue, Rochedale, is within walking distance of Rochedale Village Shopping Centre and just 20 minutes from the Brisbane CBD, with convenient access to the M1 and Inner South Busway and close proximity to a range of leading schools.
