Five Storey Mixed Use Development Proposed For 123-125 Racecourse Road, Ascot

A five storey mixed use development has been lodged with Brisbane City Council for 123-125 Racecourse Road, Ascot, seeking approval for a new residential and retail building within the Racecourse Road Precinct.

The impact assessable development application proposes a Multiple Dwelling and Centre Activities development across the 1,098m² site, replacing two existing buildings that would be demolished.

The proposal comprises 17 apartments above three ground floor retail tenancies, with two basement levels providing resident parking. A rooftop garden would crown the building, delivering communal open space and landscaping visible from surrounding properties.

The ground floor would contain three retail tenancies with a combined gross floor area of 171m² addressing Racecourse Road, reinforcing the active commercial character of the precinct. These tenancies are positioned to maintain a continuous active frontage to the street, consistent with the intent of the Neighbourhood Plan.

Above, 17 apartments are proposed, comprising nine three bedroom dwellings and eight two bedroom dwellings. Each apartment would be provided with private open space in the form of balconies, while a deep planting zone would be established along the eastern boundary to provide visual buffering to adjoining Low medium density residential land.

Two basement levels would accommodate 41 car parking spaces. Vehicle access is proposed via a single driveway crossover to Racecourse Road. Parking and servicing areas are located beneath the building, allowing the street frontage to remain active and pedestrian focused.

Architectural plans indicate a contemporary facade with vertical screening elements, layered balconies and integrated planting across podium and upper levels. The building presents as a two storey podium to Racecourse Road, with upper levels articulated through recesses and screening to reduce perceived bulk. While the proposal exceeds the number of storeys nominated for the site under the Racecourse Road Neighbourhood Plan Code, the applicant argues it achieves the relevant performance outcomes and aligns with other recently approved developments within the precinct.

The rooftop level would provide communal facilities including a swimming pool, pool deck, barbecue area, community space and amenities. Landscaped planters and perimeter planting would soften the built form and create an elevated communal environment for residents.

Landscape concept plans prepared by LAUD Ink show structured planting across the ground level frontage, deep planting along the eastern boundary, balcony planters and rooftop terrace planting. A mix of feature trees, shrubs and cascading species would be used to soften the facade and provide screening to neighbouring properties.
