The long-held idea of a working holiday is taking on a new dimension with luxury highrises all over the Gold Coast featuring unique work-from-home facilities. These amenities allow owners a break to enjoy the sunny metropolitan without losing touch of the ‘office’ back home.
This continuously growing trend specifically caters to wealthy interstate investors who seek to maintain a lock-it-and-leave holiday apartment on the Glitter Strip, having moved to a hybrid or a fully work-from-home lifestyle.
Nineteen First Avenue, a brand new beachside residential tower in Broadbeach, dedicates an entire storey to work-from-home amenities. Complete with high-end work suites, boardroom, lounge, library, and outdoor entertaining space perfect for functions, this 37-storey tower astutely caters to this trend.
Developed by the experienced team at Amansi Projects and architecturally designed by award-winning Plus Architecture, Nineteen First Avenue has been crafted to the highest standards.
Its resort-style amenities include a pool, spa and wet deck, gymnasium, sauna, steam room, yoga space, and an outdoor BBQ and dining area in addition to its work-from-home facilities.
“The whole point of a holiday apartment on the Gold Coast is to have a holiday, but if you do need to jump on a conference call for a minute or deal with anything work-related, Nineteen gives you that option,” said Andrew Erwin, Director of NPA Projects.
“It means you can perhaps stay for weeks or even a couple of months on end if your circumstances allow,” Mr Erwin continued.
“Just imagine a coffee and stroll on the beach in the morning, you take care of a bit of work when you get back, then hit the pool with a drink in the afternoon or any one of the world-class restaurants below.”
Developer Ayrton Mansi of Amansi Projects believes providing these spaces in high-calibre projects like Nineteen First Avenue is essential.
“This wouldn’t have been a feature we would’ve remotely considered five or so years ago,” Mr Mansi remarked. “It’s very much a sign of the times - but a great one, in my opinion.
“People are placing a greater emphasis on their work-life balance, and that’s what this work-from-home level offers without compromising on the legitimacy of their work.”
Perfectly positioned between the vibrant Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach dining and entertainment precincts, Nineteen First Avenue culminates the best things in life.
Comprising 33 full-floor apartments and a two-level penthouse designed by Plus Architecture, home life is innately serene and luxurious here.
Full-floor residences boast house-like proportions at 280 sqm. Purposely designed to feel like a resort, each home features floor-to-ceiling windows, custom-designed materials, and classically beautiful finishes.
The exclusive and customisable two-storey penthouse comprises four bedrooms with a private terrace, plunge pool, a sunken lounge, and fire pit. It is the ultimate showcase of oceanside sophistication and glamour.
“The design was heavily influenced by the natural movement and rhythm of the ocean,” explained Danny Juric, Director of Plus Architecture.
“The approach we’ve taken with the shared spaces of Nineteen First Avenue is to imagine what it would be like to have a holiday year ‘round.”
Construction is due to commence early this year, with an estimated completion in early 2025.
