The team behind MIRA: A Gold Coast beachfront address completing this year

AT A GLANCE: 

• Developer: Frank Developments 
• Builder: Frank Developments 
• Address: 61 Garfield Terrace, Surfers Paradise, QLD 4217
• No. of Residences: 12, with 3 remaining 
• Estimated Completion Date: Late 2026

Construction at MIRA is moving with clear momentum. Rising from its absolute beachfront position on Surfers Paradise’s exclusive Garfield Terrace, the structure is now well past the halfway mark, with the core nearing completion.

Inside, early details are beginning to emerge, with travertine feature stone walls being installed and a full-scale joinery prototype currently being signed off, marking a key checkpoint in ensuring the final product reflects the original vision.

That consistency is no accident. One of MIRA’s defining strengths lies in how closely the project is held by the team from concept through to delivery.

A tightly held vision by a dedicated team

MIRA is being developed, designed, and built by Frank Developments – an integrated approach that allows the team to maintain control over both the creative direction and the construction process. For buyers, it means the design intent isn’t diluted along the way, but instead protected right through to handover.

Working alongside Frank. is a carefully selected design team. Leading Queensland architecture firm FerroChow Architecture brings a contextual, considered approach to the building’s sculptural form, while award-winning design studio ByCulprit shapes the interiors with a focus on how spaces feel and function day-to-day.

“Good design only goes so far; it has to be executed properly,” said Frank Licastro, founder and managing director of Frank Developments.

“That’s where having the right team across design and construction becomes critical, and I believe we do.”

Together, the team delivers a cohesive vision grounded in craftsmanship and clarity. This is most evident in the way MIRA responds to its beachfront setting.

Designed around the way people live by the ocean

Rather than a standard apartment layout, MIRA’s residences are designed across two levels each, offering a sense of separation between living and retreat that is more akin to a private home. Each residence is positioned to maximise its outlook, with a “view-stacked” approach that ensures uninterrupted ocean vistas from key living spaces.

Expansive glazing replaces traditional walls, drawing in natural light and framing the coastline, while maintaining privacy through thoughtful design.

Internally, the material palette is deliberately restrained. Honed travertine, natural timber, brushed platinum finishes, and soft coastal tones create a calm, tactile environment that reflects the surrounding landscape rather than competing with it.

The result is a series of homes that feel grounded, liveable, and enduring, shaped as much by the site as by the team behind them.

Beachfront lifestyle, perfected

Downstairs, residents will find a private sanctuary. Level 1 will be home to a wellness studio, complete with a resort-style pool with beach views, sauna, and private dining areas. At ground level, the Beach Cove Lounge will open directly onto Northcliffe Beach – your backyard.

Lifestyle extends beyond the building, with the surrounding precinct continuing to evolve. The nearby Northcliffe Surf Club has undergone a major revamp, while Broadbeach and Surfers Paradise continue to expand their dining and lifestyle offerings, all within walking distance of MIRA’s front door.

Limited opportunities as completion approaches

For buyers, timing is important. With just three residences remaining, and the penthouse recently secured by a Queensland-based family, the opportunity to secure your place in MIRA is increasingly limited.

What’s more, construction is progressing toward an end-of-year move-in, offering the rare chance to secure a new beachfront home that’s close to completion.

A considered approach to beachfront living

At its core, MIRA is a project defined by alignment between developer, architect, designer, and builder. It’s an approach that prioritises clarity over complexity, and detail over excess.

That alignment is what ultimately sets MIRA apart, not just as a beachfront address, but as a carefully realised piece of residential design.

Only three residences remain. Selling from $10.95 million for a dual-level home with four bedrooms, four baths, and three car parking spaces.
