Property and investment firm JD Property Group is creating a world-class lifestyle precinct in the heart of Byron Bay’s enchanting town centre. The local real estate group recently received the green light to build the $100 million mixed-use residential development, aptly named Secret Garden Private Residences.

Spanning 2,725 sqm, this boutique sanctuary encapsulates the serenity of the hinterland within this vibrant coastal community, offering just 22 expansive apartments and upscale retail and hospitality across two sites at the corner of Jonson and Kingsley Streets.

Slated for completion in early 2026, Secret Garden Private Residences is poised to offer its residents an exquisite lifestyle.

Crafted by an award-winning name

JD Property Group has been recognised with several prestigious awards, highlighting its commitment to excellence, innovation, and sustainability. These accolades underscore the developer’s commitment to creating distinguished living spaces that harmonise with their surroundings, and Secret Garden Private Residences will be no different.

Jason Dunn, Managing Director of JD Property Group and a third-generation Byron Bay local, shares his excitement for the development:  “As a proud local, I am excited to showcase the best of Byron in a world-class, luxury precinct.”

“Every element has been thoughtfully considered and designed.

“From partners to products, we have aimed to work with our local community at every stage.

“This includes partnering with a local landscape architect to incorporate natural vegetation in our expansive greenspaces, which account for more than 40% of the precinct’s ground floor area.

“We have also worked with a local designer Island Luxe to deliver a rustic, coastal, and authentic style emulating the Byron Bay coast and hinterland, not yet seen in residential apartment living.

“Secret Garden is a very different offering to others in the market and has been positively received by our community and stakeholders.

“We anticipate strong interest from residents and retailers.”

Designed to the highest standards

Fostering relaxation, wellness, and an elite sense of community, Secret Garden will host a suite of resident-only amenities reminiscent of a six-star resort. This collection includes a rooftop mineral pool and pool club, rooftop yoga terrace, nordic sauna, and cold plunge.

Entertaining is easy here, with a resident’s rooftop VIP lounge and teppanyaki grill to complement every occasion. With a private concierge on hand, everyday life is stress-free when your restaurant bookings and re-stocking of apartments are handled.

What’s more, the development’s premium-grade retail space will be a stand-out, set to showcase local talent, including top chefs, designers, and artisans, while bringing some of Australia’s leading brands to the Byron Bay township.

Designed in collaboration with renowned designers BayleyWard, Secret Garden’s architecture features a natural and authentic material palette, extensive landscaping, and curvaceous design. While inside, dwellings are sanctuaries of comfort and elegance, equipped with silver travertine natural stone benchtops and a choice of Miele or Gaggenau appliances.

Emphasising sustainability, Secret Garden aims to provide a 100% renewable energy supply, along with rainwater harvesting and a strategy to maximise fresh, clean indoor air. Jason Dunn highlights this commitment to environmental stewardship, stating, “Sustainable design is a must for us, and we aim to celebrate and nurture our natural environment at every stage of the process.”

Moments to the beach

Secret Garden’s central location offers immediate access to Byron Bay’s iconic beaches, cultural attractions, a wealth of dining options, and carefully curated retail featuring some of Byron Bay and Australia’s best brands.

Here, you are promised a lifestyle of convenience and connection to this vibrant local community. With more than 40% of the precinct dedicated to green spaces, residents will find an everyday escape to paradise in one of Australia’s most coveted locations.

Two-, three-, and four-bedroom apartments are now selling at Secret Garden Private Residences, with two-bedders priced from $2,450,000.
