Brisbane owner-occupier buyers are driving early sales at Tom Dooley Developments’ $486m Solais Residences in Newstead, with 44 residences sold for $154.4m ahead of the project’s official market launch.
The sales result marks a milestone for Solais as it moves from its initial construction phase to its official market launch, with almost two-thirds of purchasers coming from Brisbane suburbs.
The launch coincides with the opening of the Solais sales display gallery on the rooftop of the neighbouring Breakfast Creek Lifestyle Precinct, giving prospective purchasers the chance to inspect purpose-built kitchens and bathrooms showcasing the finishes planned for Solais.
Solais will overlook the Brisbane River at Newstead.
Construction is under way on the 29-level development at 176 Breakfast Creek Rd with completion scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2028.
The 164-residence development occupies a 2500sq m site overlooking heritage-listed Newstead House and Newstead Park, with expansive protected views across dual reaches of the Brisbane River.
Designed by Plazibat Architects, Solais includes 144 residences and 20 penthouses, with the penthouse collection now released to the market as part of the official launch.

The newly released penthouse collection comprises 18 three-bedroom plus multipurpose room residences priced from $5.503m, together with two four-bedroom plus multipurpose room penthouses from $7.197m.
Tom Dooley Developments founder and managing director Tom Dooley said securing more than $154.4m in sales before the official market launch demonstrated the depth of demand for Solais.
