Short-Stay Accommodation Plans for Brisbane’s Chermside

Boutique short-stay accommodation plans have been filed for a vacant infill site on Brisbane’s suburban northside. The four-storey proposal comprises 20 accommodation units and a rooftop communal terrace. Earmarked for an 810sq m site at 62-64 Latham Street, Chermside, the plans have been lodged by an entity linked to the Sharma Family Trust. Just 10km north of the Brisbane CBD, Chermside is a suburban renewal hotspot with potential touted to rival Sydney’s Parramatta. The proposed Latham Street development would sit opposite the Prince Charles Hospital and Holy Spirit Hospital, close to Chermside Westfield Shopping Centre. “The proposal provides a boutique short-term accommodation use, providing a service to cater for the surrounding locality, in particular providing short-stay accommodation that is expected to be utilised by people requiring the use of or visiting people staying at the nearby hospitals, or people visiting the locality for business or travel reasons,” a planning report said. Designed by Brisbane-based AG Architects, the scheme also includes a three-bedroom, upper-level apartment intended for a building owner or manager. A planned rooftop terrace would provide 166sq m of communal open space featuring shaded pergola seating areas, landscaped planter beds, a guest kitchen and barbecue. ▲ A render of the four-storey mixed-use short-term accommodation building proposed for Latham Street, Chermside. On the ground level, as well as a reception area, office space spanning more than 60sq m would be accommodated. Carparking spaces for 12 vehicles also are proposed for this level. “The proposed development facilitates a revitalisation of an underutilised and currently vacant site to generate a mixed-use development that focuses on providing short-term accommodation to the housing market whilst seeking streetscape activation through the integration of a ground level office tenancy,” the documents said. “The proposal will establish 20 short-term accommodation units, providing a necessary use near to higher order services, such as hospitals, whilst remaining consistent and compatible with the predominantly residential nature of the immediate locality. “Furthermore, the proposed development will encourage pedestrian movement and connectivity with key public transport networks. “This high-quality outcome reflects a contemporary design that engages with the streetscape interface by providing a well balanced built form that comprises of dedicated deep planting areas, high glass facades, and shaded awnings to encourage increased levels of pedestrian movement and supporting Brisbane’s active streetscapes.”
