The subject site is located on the corner of Link Crescent and Quanda Road within the Coolum Industry Park. The site is currently vacant, and no improvements exist on site.

The proposal by development proponents Coolum Beach 2 Pty Ltd comprised a tilt slab building with four industrial tenancies plus a caretaker residence.

Each proposed industrial tenancies contain an open-plan workspace area, mezzanine floor, staff room, toilet and shower, kitchen, and balcony overlooking Link Crescent. The proposed Low Impact Industry Use comprises the following:

• 1,023m² of gross floor area,
• 876m² / 52% site cover,
• 396m² of landscaping,
• 17 car parking spaces, and
• 6 motorcycle spaces.

The project deals adequately with easements and parking requirements to maximise usable space on the site.

The exterior renders of the 1 Link Crescent project shows the commercial tenancies featuring double height to accommodate the interior mezzanine floors, and the balconies to each tenancy.

As part of the application, we requested several relaxations to certain requirements, including:

• a relaxation of the rear setback requirement, and
• due to the existing encumbrances on the site (easements) and lot shape, a 2-metre wide landscape strip can not be achieved to the full length of the site’s street frontages.

Due to site easements and configuration, landscaping is limited but plans have been developed to maximise available planting space.

Upon our initial application Council issued a request for further information, which we responded to. The good news now is that the project has final approval and can proceed to the next stage of delivery.

We are currently working on finalising internal designs, progressing hydraulic drawings for the plumbing application, a liquor licence application, and food premises application.

Project Details

RG Strategic lodged a town planning application for the Material Change of Use for 115 Poinciana Avenue, Tewantin, for a food and drink outlet.

The developers are looking to convert the old bank location to a new dining experience within the existing tenancy and a small extension at the rear.

The food and drink outlet, called Nickels and Dimes, will comprise patron tables and seating, kitchen storage, cold rooms and toilets (including disabled) inside the existing building and new kitchen, deck, bin storage and pedestrian access to the rear of the building. It will be a food and drink outlet to be experienced.

Project architects Robinson Architects have proposed a painted vertical timber product for the new kitchen, batten screening and fibre cement sheet, with at-grade and raised garden beds to screen the rear car parking of the neighbouring property. Further raised and vertical landscaping is used to soften an existing extra-large wall of the western neighbour and for ambience for the patrons.

The site has access to all infrastructure that commonly services urban development, including reticulated water and sewerage, underground telecommunication services, overhead electricity supply, street lighting, stormwater drainage, bitumen roadway, and kerb and channelling along the road frontage of the site.

Plans show the redevelopment of the old bank building in Tewantin into a new food and drink venue.

The post Tewantin to get new culinary experience appeared first on RG Strategic.

Currently the sloping large site of 830 sqm holds an existing two-story masonry single dwelling. The existing dwelling will be demolished, and a three-storey duplex will replace it on the site.

The application we submitted constitutes a Material Change of Use (Code Assessment) which will encompass the following elements:

• Removal of the existing detached dwelling and associated structures;
• Development of architecturally designed Dual Occupancy consisting of 1 x 4-bedroom dwelling (unit 1) and 1 x 3-bedroom dwelling (unit 2); and
• Basement carparking.

Uniquely, the configuration of the proposed duplex is not side by side, but one unit per floor. Additional development intent includes:

• 1 x crossover and basement garage for 4 vehicles,
• 1 x common swimming pool,
• Extensive landscaping of the site, including the whole perimeter of the lot.

The proposed plans for the new duplex at Peregian Esplanade will require some relaxations of the Noosa Plan 2020. There is some minor encroachment to setbacks front and rear.

The application is assessable as some design parameters exceed Noosa Plan stipulations, in particular setbacks to the rear and sides.

We have sought a relaxation to the rear boundary setback for the basement, a pergola and a minor variation for a window hood and level 1 eave.

A small arbour is proposed near the front boundary within the front 6m setback.

Importantly, 99% of the development complies with the relevant Acceptable outcomes noting the development is under the permitted gross floor area, site cover and is within the building height in metres prescribed.

The duplex development includes a shared pool and extensive landscaping.

 

The duplex development allows privacy for each unit but retains the outlook for both over the esplanade.

• articulated and interesting roof form;
• eaves and covered outdoor living spaces;
• a mix of external finishes including timber battening, eco timber, painted masonry and stone cladding; and

The two units to be developed will feature two levels and a basement, which will include parking for 12 vehicles, wine cellar, utility space, storage, shower and toilet as well as a lift to both levels of the unit.

The perspective render shows how the designers have been able to deliver light and space in the development yet retaining valuable privacy.
