Milestone Reached for Landmark BIANCO Development in Caloundra
An exciting milestone has been reached for RCQ’s landmark development, BIANCO, as the project officially celebrated its roof topping. The event was presided over by Councillor Terry Landsberg, marking a significant step in the transformation of Caloundra’s CBD.
“The BIANCO project is set to become a defining landmark for Caloundra, setting a new standard for residential living while enhancing the vibrancy of the community,” said Councillor Landsberg. “This Mediterranean-inspired development not only adds to the charm of the Sunshine Coast but also plays a pivotal role in driving economic growth and creating job opportunities for local residents. BIANCO will further establish Caloundra as a highly desirable destination for both locals and visitors alike.”
BIANCO is the first new development in the Caloundra CBD in two decades, bringing much-needed high-quality residential and retail spaces to the area.
RCQ Director Ric Peterson emphasized the company’s commitment to Caloundra’s revitalisation, stating, “RCQ strongly believes in Caloundra and its future. We’re excited to be a key part of its renaissance, starting with BIANCO and followed by several other significant projects we have planned for the region.”
“BIANCO presents a rare opportunity for home seekers to secure a brand-new luxury apartment in what is arguably Caloundra’s best location,” Peterson continued. “Additionally, businesses will benefit from premium commercial and retail spaces in the area’s most prominent location, tailored to meet their specific needs.”
BIANCO has already made a significant impact on the local economy, with approximately 100 tradespeople working on-site daily. Regulars at local events such as Sconetime, and Christmas Tree Lane, many of the RCQ team working on the BIANCO project are locals.
Upon completion, the development will feature five modern commercial tenancies, introducing new and exciting services to the community. Back in June 2024 RCQ announced their first retail tenant as Bunker Specialty Coffee Co, renowned for supplying high-end Melbourne coffee to cafes and espresso bars across the Sunshine Coast for the past eight years. Bunker are poised to bring their distinct flair to the BIANCO development. Coffee business partners Ben and Kate Saultry were present at the roof topping out event.
“With internal works on most apartments well underway, now is the ideal time to book an onsite inspection to experience firsthand the exceptional layouts, finishes, and breathtaking views,” Peterson added. “We are looking forward to welcoming BIANCO residents into their new homes later this year, with move-in anticipated around August.”
Belle Property Maroochydore’s project marketer, John Stamp, has reported strong interest in the BIANCO development, with 70% of the project already sold. "Buyers recognise the value in both the location and the quality of the offering," he stated. "This is evident, with one of the sky home sales exceeding $4 million."
BIANCO, brought to life by local builder and developer RCQ, comprises 27 luxury apartments across eight levels, complete with resort-style amenities including a pool, spa, BBQ area, and gym.
