Situated approximately 25km north of Surfers Paradise, Hope Island is located near the gated privatised canal estate development of Sanctuary Cove. Hope Island is designed to offer an alternative to this style of development. It provides access to canal edges, a mixed use town centre, civic sites reserved for community gatherings and pedestrian friendly street fronted by a variety of building types.

The area is divided into three precincts by the canal, the Southern Village, the Canal Island and the Northern Village.

The focus of the southern village will be the town centre located directly off the entry roundabout at Sickle Avenue. A mix of small shops, large format retail sleeved by smaller specialty stores, commercial buildings and opportunities for the residential living alone will contribute to a lively town centre atmosphere. Public parking lots are hidden within the interior of blocks with verandahs and arcades spanning footpaths to create a quality pedestrian experience.

Crossing the canal, a formal square announces arrival to the Canal Island. Grant Avenue is configured to create a beautiful, tree lined avenue that is the central spine connecting directly to, and creating a wonderful view of the canal origin. The avenue will be lined with denser building types that include apartments & terraces. These buildings, as well as the majority throughout Hope Island, will be served by rear lane ways that allow the entire street frontage to become a pleasant pedestrian experience.

The Northern Village is organised into a simple patter of streets typically orientated towards the canal to establish water views. The configuration is markedly different for the conventional canal estate development which privatises the water.

Connecting the precincts is a continuous system of canal edges, streets and pedestrian paths fronted by buildings and their windows and doors.

The project is slated to become a truly mixed use integrated community, with a diverse program that includes a wide range of housing types, shops, small offices and a variety of civic uses. All of these uses, and the leveraging of the canal as a public asset, will contribute to making Hope Island a true community and a vibrant destination for the region.
