Celebrity chef Matt Moran has spent close to $1 million to buy an off the plan Brisbane apartment in Sunland’s Abian tower. Matt Moran secured a two-bedroom, two-bathroom low rise apartment in the 40-level tower which overlooks the city’s botanic gardens. Moran controls two restaurants in the city, hence his decision to buy into the curvilinear, pewter glass tower. Moran told The Weekend Australian the fourth floor apartment could be an investment property in the future, but he is visiting Brisbane most weeks. It’s close to the restaurants, Aria Brisbane and Riverbar and Kitchen on Brisbane’s Eagle Street Pier. It was late 2009 when the 2067 square metre French Quarter development site was bought from Devine for $24.88 million, with an anticipated 2013-2014 construction completion date. Some 110 apartments of the 147 in Abian quickly sold earlier this year at a $1.6 million average with its penthouses and a two-level 1200 square metre sky villa still available for purchase at $16 million. Construction of Abian, which is adjacent to Quay West on Alice Street, is due to start mid-year, with a reported 2017 completion. The Sunland apartments will feature hand-applied gold leaf on the ceilings of its public spaces, 24-hour concierge, plunge pools, treatment rooms as well as Turkish baths.
