ORO Newstead - Brochure (Postcard)

Your Golden Opportunity Awaits

Proudly Developed by Panettiere Developments

The visionaries behind ORO Newstead and the Little Italy retail precinct are three brothers, Joseph, Michael and Massimo Panettiere, whose family has been part of the construction industry since 1974 when their father, an Italian migrant, began building residential units in Brisbane.

The brothers pride themselves on a hands-on approach to building, with a commitment to quality and craftsmanship that ensures residences are both wellbuilt and of lasting quality.

From luxury residences to curated retail, food, drink and dining venues, the development aims to deliver an integrated residential experience with ample amenities, complemented by a generous ground floor realm to be known as "Little Italy" for resident and community use, connection and benefit.

Our Legacy

With extensive experience in development and construction in Brisbane and the Gold Coast, and a strong reputation in the industry as specialist building contractors and developers, the three brothers have delivered numerous successful residential projects, including River Park Central in Brisbane’s CBD and NERO Newstead.

With the ORO Newstead residences and the Little Italy retail development, the brothers are taking their father’s building legacy to new heights. This landmark luxury mixed use lifestyle project is set to establish a new residential and retail precinct in Newstead, inspired by Italian architecture and style.

Construction by Panettiere

Known for its meticulous attention to detail and uncompromising standards, Panettiere Developments and its related building company brings expert construction management to every stage of the build. With a hands-on approach and a passion for precision, it ensures each residence is delivered with structural integrity, superior craftsmanship and with a commitment to excellence.

The Brisbane Market

Overview

The inner Brisbane Apartment Market has seen a significant period of price and rental growth on the back of increases in population and employment.

As more people move to Brisbane for its lifestyle, employment opportunities and the benefits of infrastructure investment in the region, the demand for inner-city living is expected to increase. Inner-city hubs such as Newstead are prime examples where demand has driven significant increases in property values for both new and established apartment and housing dwelling.

Brisbane's CBD was expected to shoulder the biggest price hike, with the median rent for a two-bedroom apartment in the city expected to top more than $1000 a week within the next five years.

Rental Market

A new report by commercial real estate services company CBRE has found that over the next five years in Brisbane, vacant apartments will become harder to find and median rents are predicted to climb.

0.7%

The CBD and south-east suburbs will see the sharpest falls in vacancy, with citywide vacancy falling from 1.1 per cent to 0.7 per cent over the next three years.

The research examined the demand, supply, vacancy and rented for Australian apartments and found median rents were expected to grow by 24 per cent between 2025-2030 across 53 precincts in Australian capital cities.

Infrastructure Boom of Olympic Proportions

The importance of Brisbane winning the bid for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games cannot be under-estimated. The region has already seen significant increase in the level of infrastructure spending and planning of new projects and upgrades of existing venues to cater to the infrastructure needed to host an Olympic Games. As part of this, many projects will have a lasting legacy for the residents of Brisbane.

Off-the-plan purchases of select recently completed projects achieved price growth of up to 47%*

Newstead Catchment

Supply and Demand

Population growth in the Newstead Catchment over the past 4 years required circa 480 dwellings per annum. Only 160 per annum have been delivered.

Inner Brisbane

Future Completions

Inner Brisbane has seen declining completions of new apartment product over the past 5 years. Whilst 2025 will see supply complete - there will again be declining supply adding pressure on the demand and supply balance.

The Olympic Effect

In the three years before the 2000 Sydney Olympics, property values rose 15%—but in the three years after, they soared 43%. With Brisbane set to host in 2032, the stage is set for history to repeat, as global attention and major infrastructure investment drive another wave of growth.

Brisbane, Australia’s Olympic City 2032

Brisbane’s selection as host of the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games has triggered an unprecedented level of infrastructure investment. Over $7 billion is committed to Olympic infrastructure alone, with projected economic benefits exceeding $20 billion. For ORO Newstead, this means being at the centre of a city on the rise — where improvements to transport, lifestyle amenity and global exposure will continue to drive long-term value for residents and investors.

The World Comes to Brisbane

The 2032 Brisbane Olympics are poised to significantly influence the city’s property market, drawing parallels to the effects observed during the Sydney 2000 Games. In Sydney, property prices in host suburbs experienced substantial growth during the bidding and pre-Olympic periods, although this trend did not persist post-Games.

Conversely, non-host suburbs saw higher price increases during the pre and post Olympic periods, suggesting a broader regional impact beyond the immediate vicinity of Olympic venues.

Queensland Tourism

Brisbane is increasingly recognised as one of Australia’s premier lifestyle and tourism destinations, offering a diverse mix of natural beauty, cultural landmarks and world-class entertainment. The riverside suburb of Newstead is perfectly positioned to benefit from this appeal, combining inner-city vibrancy with scenic waterfront charm and close proximity to major attractions.

Brisbane’s tourism industry has shown strong resilience and growth following the pandemic, with domestic travel continuing to rise. In the year to March 2023, millions of visitors explored the city for both overnight stays and day trips, surpassing pre-pandemic tourism levels across the region.

Looking ahead, Brisbane is poised for a major tourism boom as the host city of the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The global spotlight will bring a surge of international and domestic visitors, significantly boosting demand for accommodation, hospitality and leisure experiences. With its close proximity to key Olympic venues, the CBD and major transport hubs, Newstead is ideally located to capture the benefits of this influx.

Connected Everywhere, Close to Everything

The Laneways of Little Italy

Little Italy aims to introduce curated retail, food and beverage outlets inspired by Italian culture, food, drink and cuisine to deliver aspects of the Italian la dolcè vita in the heart of Newstead.

From Italy to Newstead

Italian migration to Brisbane began in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with the most significant influx occurring after World War II. Seeking a better life and an escape from war-torn Italy, many Italians settled in Brisbane, working across a range of industries, including the sugar industry in North Queensland and as fishers on the Brisbane River.

Newstead, once a working-class riverside area near Brisbane’s industrial heart, became a popular place to live due to its proximity to work, particularly in construction, manufacturing and food production. By the 1950s and '60s, Italian-run cafés, delicatessens and fruit shops appeared throughout inner Brisbane suburbs such as New Farm, Teneriffe and Fortitude Valley. Newstead residents often frequented these businesses and the Italian influence grew steadily in Brisbane.

La Dolcé Vita

The first stage of Little Italy is intended to feature a café, an authentic Italian restaurant, pizzeria, artisan gelateria and laneway to a central plaza within the precinct. The future stages of the Little Italy Precinct is intended to feature an Italian inspired mercato, delicatessen, bakery, pasta and pastry shop as well as other specialty retailers.
