Construction is moving swiftly at Murcia Residences, with works advancing rapidly under the expert guidance of Hutchinson Builders – one of Australia’s most trusted and experienced construction teams. The project, rising 30 storeys in the heart of East Brisbane, is on track for completion in late 2027, marking a major milestone for the area’s evolution into a vibrant, connected lifestyle hub.

Murcia’s site is now a hive of activity, with the ground floor and podium levels formed and the jumpform system reaching level six, signalling impressive vertical progress. The 1.3m transfer slab, which forms the foundation for the first apartment level, is now complete. Meanwhile, finishes procurement has been locked in, and residential selections are well underway – clear signs that this visionary project is moving from blueprint to reality.

“Murcia is progressing at an incredible pace,” says Adam Rainbird, state director at Sarazin.

“With Hutchies leading construction, purchasers can be confident that Murcia will be ready to move into by late 2027, built to the exceptional Tier 1 standard they’re known for.”

Live in the heart of Brisbane’s Olympic transformation

Located in East Brisbane’s emerging lifestyle precinct, Murcia is perfectly positioned to benefit from the $5 billion+ Woolloongabba Cross River Rail and the future Brisbane Arena, both transformative projects that will anchor the 2032 Olympic Precinct, and both minutes away.

For residents, that means effortless connectivity and lasting value growth, with the nearby Gabba Stadium set to be transformed into expansive parklands post Olympics.

Plus, with the future Cross River Rail station just 500m away, the Brisbane CBD, Southbank’s vibrant entertainment precinct, and Queen’s Wharf are only a short ride from your doorstep.

Whether it’s a morning run along the Kangaroo Point Cliffs, a stroll to Logan Road’s buzzing dining scene, or an easy commute into the city, Murcia places everything within reach.

Mediterranean elegance and contemporary sophistication

With a wide range of one- to five-bedroom residences, your lifestyles and preferences are catered to in Murcia. Yet, its brand-new release of spacious two- and three-bedroom residences is a highlight, now selling from $1.255 million.

This new release is designed to fit how you live, featuring multi-purpose spaces that you can adapt to a home office, media room, or guest retreat. Offering epic city, river, Mount Coot-tha, and eastern views, you are connected to Brisbane in more ways than one.

For those seeking more, the Murcia Cielo Collection presents a limited release of exclusive sub-penthouses crowning the tower, launching early next year. These residences promise premium finishes, sweeping skyline views, and a rare opportunity to secure a piece of East Brisbane’s most anticipated new address.

The rooftop oasis

Above, the rooftop club will set a new benchmark for Brisbane apartment living. This sanctuary in the sky features a north-facing infinity-edge pool with panoramic city views, complemented by private cabanas, secluded lounges, BBQ areas, and beautifully appointed al fresco dining spaces, perfect for entertaining.

The wellness centre ensures rejuvenation and retreat at home, with warm and chilled magnesium plunge pools, a steam room, and infrared sauna.

With an edible rooftop garden that comprises olive trees, rosemary, finger limes, and lemons, there’s nothing quite like it.

Confidence built on proven foundations

Backed by Sarazin’s refined development vision and Hutchinson Builders’ Tier 1 expertise, Murcia is shaping up to be a future landmark. The 30-storey building will feature 236 architecturally designed apartments by HAL Architects, each shaped with a Mediterranean-inspired sensibility and an emphasis on everyday liveability.

For buyers considering an off-the-plan purchase, this tangible progress provides rare reassurance, with every milestone bringing the project closer to delivering a lifestyle that blends urban sophistication with the warmth of coastal Europe, all just minutes from the Brisbane CBD.

“We’re thrilled to see Murcia coming to life,” said Adam.

“It’s a community that celebrates and elevates connection, design, and the beauty of Brisbane’s subtropical way of living.”
