From its roots in Melbourne’s Bayside, Martello™ has consistently delivered premium residential and mixed-use communities grounded in thoughtful design, enduring quality, and a deep respect for place.

Now, they are expanding into Queensland’s most desirable coastal and lifestyle destinations. 

This next chapter reflects Queensland’s strong property fundamentals, sustained population growth, and significant infrastructure investment, positioning the Melbourne-based company for long-term opportunity through 2026 and beyond.

“As we looked to the next phase of Martello™, Queensland stood out for its long-term strength, lifestyle appeal, and the scale of investment shaping its future,” Martello™ director Elaine Poulter said.

“This expansion is a considered move into markets where quality and liveability will continue to matter.”

As Queensland prepares for the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, billions of dollars are being invested into transport, urban renewal, and community infrastructure across South East Queensland. This investment is reshaping the region well ahead of 2032, strengthening connectivity between coastal precincts and lifestyle hubs.

“We see the Olympic-led investment as a catalyst for lasting change,” Elaine said.

“It’s about building places that remain relevant long after the Games.”

Martello™ is proud to align its expansion with this momentum, contributing thoughtfully to regions poised for enduring demand and long-term value.

Wellness-led coastal living, shaped by place

The essence of living is defined by how a space makes you feel. The team at Martello™ recognises this, creating their projects with a wellness-first philosophy, where architecture, natural light, and refined materiality create calm, balanced environments. They bring this same philosophy to the Sunshine State.

“Wellness is embedded in how we design from the outset,” Elaine said.

“From light and flow to outlook and materiality, every decision supports daily well-being.”

Homes are planned to balance convenience with a sense of retreat, responding intuitively to coastline, hinterland, topography, and local character. Environmental consideration and community integration inform every stage of the development process.

“Our approach is always to respond to place rather than impose on it,” Elaine added.

Looking ahead: The future of Martello™ in Queensland

Martello™ is excited to see its upcoming multi-residential and mixed-use projects unfold in the Gold Coast's Broadbeach and Chevron Island, areas selected for their balanced coastal appeal, connectivity, and infrastructure outlook.

“These locations allow us to deliver premium, wellness-led living while remaining closely connected to community and infrastructure,” Elaine said.

Looking ahead, the Melbourne-based developer is exploring opportunities in Kirra Beach and Palm Beach, continuing its commitment to delivering considered coastal communities across Queensland.
