For many Australians, the decision to downsize comes with a question: what am I actually moving into?

At Aere Chevron Island, established Melbourne-based developer Martello™ brings its proven track record in premium residential living to the Queensland market, delivering 33 generously proportioned residences designed not around density, but around how people want to live.

This isn’t a trade-down, but a trade-up in light, space, service, and location.

A home designed around you, not around numbers

Aere’s exclusive collection of two-, three-, and four-bedroom residences is built with an unusual generosity of scale. Half-floor layouts on the larger residences mean just two homes per floor, delivering privacy and quiet that most Gold Coast apartments simply can’t offer.

High ceilings, expansive glazing, and cross-ventilation create an ease that goes beyond square meterage, taking advantage of this idyllic coastal address.

Interior designer Iona Gibson put it simply: “The interiors were conceived as a calm, enduring backdrop to everyday living – spaces that feel generous, light-filled, and inherently liveable.”

Patagonia quartzite stone, fully integrated Artusi appliances, and spa-like bathrooms are complemented by bespoke joinery throughout, while the penthouse residences are elevated further with premium Gaggenau appliances, ensuring every home feels thoughtfully considered, from the functional laundry to the sumptuous master suite.

“Each residence is designed to balance openness with retreat, ensuring a sense of privacy while still feeling connected to light, outlook, and the surrounding environment,” said Iona.

“The intention was to create homes that feel considered and effortless, where every detail supports wellness and the way people actually live.”

Chevron Island: a quiet, village feel in the Gold Coast

Aere’s address on Chevron Island gives residents something most coastal towers can’t – a village. Thomas Drive’s cafés, wine bars, and boutiques are a two-minute stroll from the front door, while the renowned Surfers Paradise beach is seven minutes on foot. HOTA, the Gold Coast’s arts and cultural precinct, is accessible via the nearby pedestrian and cycle accessible Green Bridge, with riverside walking paths and parklands just minutes’ walk away.

More of the Coast’s best are accessible via a short drive. Pacific Fair Shopping Centre is the perfect place to go for both luxury shopping and everyday essentials, just a 15-minute drive away. If you’re looking for dining and entertainment, vibrant Broadbeach offers it all a 12-minute drive away.

This address is centrally located and genuinely quiet, removed from tourist density, but connected to everything that makes the Gold Coast worth living in.

Wellness and convenience built into the building

As an Aere resident, you will have exclusive access to Club Aere. This amenity offering spans two levels of wellness and recreation, including a heated pool, traditional sauna, jacuzzi, fully equipped gym, yoga space, and a private massage treatment room. A meditation and gong room, an elegant residents’ lounge and bar, a bookable private dining room with Gaggenau appliances, and a panoramic BBQ terrace complete the picture.

The 24-hour virtual concierge and Erin Living app make your everyday seamless, handling everything from dry-cleaning collection and parcel delivery to restaurant bookings, maintenance, and keyless entry. For people who have spent decades managing a large home, the freedom that comes with this level of service is worth more than most floor plans.

Aere is expected to complete in January 2028, with two-, three-, and four-bedroom residences now selling.

Prices range from $1.495 million for a premium two-bed and two-bath home, to $3.55 million for an expansive four-bed, half-floor residence.
