Construction is climbing fast at Murcia Residences, with Hutchinson Builders now up to Level 20 on the East Brisbane tower, and the closer it gets to its rooftop, the clearer its vision becomes: a Mediterranean-inspired home shaped by lush subtropical landscaping, considered interiors, and rooftop amenities that give residents a Mediterranean getaway every day.

Design that lives up to “La Vida Bella” 

Architecturally designed by Brisbane-based HAL Architects, Murcia takes its cues from the Spanish orchard city it’s named for.

Inside, residents choose between two finish palettes - the warm, terracotta-toned Clásico and the naturally light Terracotta - both built around timber-look joinery, stone benchtops, and an option to upgrade to Miele appliances and integrated wine fridges.

Outside, landscape architects WILD Studio’s landscaping does the heavy lifting: over 3,000 plants thread through balconies, breeze-block facades, and laneways before culminating in a rooftop orchard of olive, citrus, finger lime, and rosemary - an edible rooftop garden designed to nourish the body and mind.

A rooftop built for lingering

Murcia’s true showpiece remains its rooftop club.

Start your morning laps in the infinity pool, where the Gabba, city skyline, and Brisbane River unfold around you as the light comes up. From there, wind down in the wellness centre, where you can move between warm and cold magnesium plunge pools, sauna, and steam room, all just steps away for whenever the day calls for it.

In the evening, pick your spot: a private cabana with a book, or the al fresco dining space and banquet table for a long dinner with friends. Reach up for a lemon or a sprig of rosemary from the rooftop’s edible garden on your way past - Murcia’s answer to the Spanish art of sobremesa, where the meal ends but nobody’s in a hurry to leave.

Strong momentum, growing demand

Sales remain steady, with strong enquiry levels and a healthy mix of investors and owner-occupiers. Downsizers, upsizers, and lifestyle buyers have been particularly strong, drawn to a central, well-connected address.

With completion still on track for October 2027, Murcia continues to attract buyers planning ahead for one of Brisbane’s most significant growth precincts.

A precinct on the rise

Murcia’s East Brisbane address sits within one of the city’s most dynamic transformation zones. The future Cross River Rail station is just 500 metres away, and the new Brisbane Arena is set to bring world-class sport and entertainment to the doorstep, adding to a neighbourhood already known for its vibrant lifestyle, with an abundance of restaurants, bars, and green spaces.

With Kangaroo Point Cliffs close by, convenient access to freeways, and the South City Square precinct with a major Woolworths and over 30+ retail and commercial offerings only a few minutes’ walk away, you need not travel far for everyday necessities and lifestyle wants.

“We’re excited to see Murcia climbing towards its top out,” said Adam Rainbird, state director at Sarazin.

“It’s a real milestone for the project.”

“The response we’re seeing from buyers reflects exactly what we set out to build: a home for people at every stage of life, in a location that keeps getting better.”

Murcia Residences offers two- to five-bedroom residences, starting at $1.92 million for a two-bedroom home with MPR, two baths, one car parking space, and spectacular views.
