Note from the editor

It’s that time of year again – the Easter long weekend that’s more than likely filled with (too many) sweet treats, colourful eggs and fun treasure hunts that bring out the kid in all of us. If you’re in the market for a new home, you might be searching for a different kind of treasure – the perfect place to build new memories. Just like an Easter egg hidden in plain sight, your dream home could be closer than you think! In this edition, we showcase several delightful renovations from a heritage gem in Queanbeyan that’s full of charm (p12) to a family haven in sought-after Torrens (p15). But no matter what you’re hunting for this season, may your heart (and basket) be full.

An architectural beauty built in 2022, this Strathnairn house at 19 Frearson Street is the epitome of modern luxury. Positioned beside Paddy’s Park –a space loved by the Ginninderry community – the home boasts polished concrete floors, soaring ceilings, rich timber accents and custom cabinetry. You’ll be spoilt for choice on where to spend your time, from the three living areas and home theatre to the study nook overlooking a sun-filled atrium.

For those who love to cook up a storm, it’s easy to be inspired by the contemporary chef’s kitchen, featuring sleek black finishes, a mirrored splashback and a full butler’s pantry. Upstairs, the main-bedroom suite has park views, a free-standing bath and dual vanity in the en suite, and a walk-in wardrobe straight out of a movie.

In the unlikely event you ever want to leave, you can take in the area’s community gardens and trails, and the Murrumbidgee River.

Listed with Lauryn Rettie of MARQ Property, the May 10 auction carries a price guide of $1.3 million-plus.

FEATURE STORY

Words by Ray Sparvell

Finding the perfect balance

There are some lovely heritage homes around, absolutely dripping with history and pleading for a new lease of life.

Kudos, then, to the inspired souls willing to take on a likely labyrinth of red tape and inevitable emotional roller coaster to bring these gems into the 21st century.

Aaron Papahatzis of Belle Property Queanbeyan, who lists this week’s

Queanbeyan feature property, says the Kathleen Street home has bones going back a century.

“This has seen an extension and renovation in recent times, complementing its early 20th-century origins,” he says. “I think that success is through an approach that has been sympathetic to its character.”

Papahatzis says the owners had sought to preserve its history while elevating

it to meet the expectations of contemporary living.

“The result has perfectly blended character with modern lifestyle convenience,” he says.

Philip Leeson Architects provides a Heritage Advisory Service on behalf of the ACT Heritage Council.

Practice principal Philip Leeson says owners and buyers, and their architects and builders, should be aware of comprehensive guidelines that apply to heritage properties and precincts.

“Anyone considering buying into either should ensure they understand what that means for renovations or extensions,” he says.

“The guidelines ensure the heritage character of a heritage precinct is preserved, but offer flexibility to suit many design interpretations for individual homes.”

Leeson says the Heritage Advisory Service provides free advice, a valuable first stop before big decisions are made.

“These insights can really help those going into the heritage process with a greater level of understanding,” he says.

TAKING ON HISTORY

Cost

A heritage renovation or extension is not for the fainthearted. It can easily cost as much or more than a new build. Preservation requirements can push the budget even higher.

Time

Heritage authorities make decisions within a welter of guidelines, and the application process can demand patience, detailed documentation and strict compliance.

Planning

Heritage properties can need era-specific materials and specialty tradespeople with relevant expertise. Other considerations include disruptions in supply chains.

Everything old is new again when the 1920s meets the 2020s in this meticulously renovated and extended Queanbeyan home.

Its art nouveau and bungalow-style origins, along with sympathetic updates, were recognised when it won the prestigious Heritage Homes Queanbeyan Award in 2021.

Another local claim to fame is that the home was built in the 1920s by the then Queanbeyan mayor. It all adds up to a rich history that has delivered a home of great character.

That’s found in details like wide verandahs, high ceilings, cornices, stained glass, golden Cyprus pine floors, a striking fireplace, oak mantelpiece, pendant lighting, and even original light switches.

The floor plan is essentially one of two halves: the bedrooms and the living areas.

The luxurious main-bedroom en suite is a spa-like retreat, featuring a copper bath and dual shower heads.

The spacious dining, living and family areas showcase many of the home’s

Move-in-ready mountain spot

When you want the results of a designer renovation, but wish to exert the least amount of effort to get it, along comes a home like 137 Gouger Street in Torrens.

Fresh from a top-to-toe transformation, this home is the definition of move-in ready. Every inch of its 219-squaremetre layout has been reimagined, from the modern bathrooms to the custom kitchen that feels to have come straight from the pages of a design magazine. The kitchen is a standout, with its sleek 20-millimetre stone benchtops, custom

cabinetry and new electric appliances, including an induction cooktop.

The designer flair continues in the bathrooms, where terrazzo tiling and timber vanities meet rainfall showers.

The main bedroom’s en suite is elevated with a 170-centimetre mattfinished bath – perfect for a soak at the end of the day.

Quality and attention to detail are on show throughout: hybrid natural oak flooring underfoot, plush new carpet in the bedrooms and on the upstairs landing, and striking black-clad feature

Thoughtful extras include custom VJ panelling in the bedrooms and clever under-stair storage with LED lighting.

Combined with a new concrete driveway, central front path and facade lighting, you’ll always arrive home to a warm welcome.

The final independent living villas currently available on the north side of Canberra have been released, allowing over 55s to relocate or downsize to a serene and secure village in Ngunnawal, Gungahlin.

The Grove is a vibrant retirement community developed and managed by Keyton. It features top-notch amenities, including a heated pool, a lawn bowls green, and a clubhouse that hosts regular social events and activities.

The community offers a mix of thoughtfully-designed and lowmaintenance independent living villas. Forty-five new independent living villas are under construction, with only nine still available for purchase. Keyton development manager Sarah Forbes says three-bedroom villas with single or double garages remain on the market.

“This is the final release of the villas, and with limited retirement unit stock in Canberra at the moment, this could be the last chance to buy something like this,” she says.

Located just off Gungahlin Drive, The Grove is just a few minutes from

Forbes says The Grove also has on-site and nearby exercise options.

“It’s in close proximity to the golf course, lovely walking paths throughout the village, and when complete, the colocated aged care,” she says.

“One of the benefits is that the village is established with amenities ready for residents.”

The development also includes the transformation of the historic Gold Creek Homestead into a purpose-built multi-amenity and function space that will house arts and crafts classes, Pilates, and resident-hosted events.

Overlooking extensive gardens, the homestead will provide a peaceful retreat for residents to relax in, while maintaining existing historical pieces –such as stone bench seating – and tiered grass areas that will host concerts.

“Gold Creek Homestead is quite a prominent building that is located within the village,” Forbes says. The social aspect doesn’t stop there. A billiard table, gym, library and a village green are some of the many gathering points for residents – and they won’t need to break a sweat to get there. A village bus is also provided for outings outside the village.

Keyton chief executive officer Nathan Cockerill says The Grove offers a deep sense of community and a lifestyle focused on safety, security and wellbeing.

“It’s a place that exemplifies the Keyton difference, reflecting our ongoing commitment to delivering exceptional lifestyle communities where residents can live healthier, happier and more connected lives,” he says.

The development is due to be completed by early 2026.

HOME TOUR

The impending arrival of your second baby is one reason to fasttrack a renovation deadline, and this was certainly the case for creative agency director Sophie and chefrestaurateur Scott McComas-Williams.

The couple and their young son had outgrown their apartment in Sydney’s Inner West and were ready to trade apartment living for a house.

The pair were keen to stay put in the area but quickly changed tack.

“We were getting priced out in the Inner West, and houses went for hundreds of thousands over their reserve, so we extended our radius because it became abundantly clear we weren’t going to find what we were looking for,” Sophie says.

This is how the couple discovered Mascot, a suburb seven kilometres south of the CBD, where a 1920s cottage caught their attention.

“Mascot is amazingly central,” Sophie says. “It’s 15 minutes from everywhere we need to be, and the parcels of land are so much bigger compared to what we had been looking at in our budget in the Inner West.”

Sophie McComas-Williams

Director and co-founder of Buffet, a content strategy and marketing studio focused on the food and beverage industries.

The interiors were tired and suffered from an outdated, uninspired renovation, but the house had good bones and an energy that Sophie and Scott were drawn to.

Kitchen bliss: Sophie McComas-Williams and her restaurateur husband, Scott, gave this area meticulous attention.

Words by Lisa Marie Corso • Photos by Alisha Gore

Relaxed and comfortable: The family dog, Freddie, enjoys the spacious living room.

“It had this really nice feeling to it and I loved that it had heaps of natural light, was single storey and had a big backyard,” Sophie says. “But it was in need of a renovation.”

In their property search, the couple had actively tried to avoid buying a house that would require intervention, but this property presented them with an opportunity to create a home that was uniquely theirs.

While the couple had never undertaken a residential renovation, Scott – the executive chef and director of the Love Tilly Group – had brought several hospitality venues to life with long-time interior design collaborator Sarah Watt of Studio Vista, so it was a no-brainer that they would enlist her expertise.

Watt’s design honoured the home’s period character while incorporating modern amenities that eased family living and played to Sophie and Scott’s love of colour.

The young family lived in their home for six months to get a sense of the space before moving out for the build.

Edging closer to her delivery date, the renovation kicked off just as Sophie’s third trimester of pregnancy began.

The home’s original footprint remained intact, but several internal walls, and a fourth bedroom, were removed to open the free-flowing kitchen, dining and living areas. The kitchen and bathroom were completely gutted.

The couple paid meticulous attention when overhauling the kitchen, which makes sense as both work in or with the food industry (Sophie is the co-founder

“It had this really nice feeling to it and I loved that it had heaps of natural light … and had a big backyard.” Sophie McComas-Williams

of creative agency Buffet, which works with the food and beverage industries). They included an induction stove, a stainless steel island bench, integrated cabinetry and a pot rail with the pair’s collection of well-seasoned pots, pans and utensils.

“We love the stainless steel island,” Sophie says. “It’s so easy to clean, and while it scratches quite easily, I think it all comes together in a brushed way that you can’t notice.”

The bathroom also entered a new era as it purged its 1980s corner spa (you know the one) and adopted floor-toceiling green tiles, a separate shower and bath, and a custom vanity. It’s a space the family now calls “the mermaid palace”.

“It’s a family bathroom, so there’s a lot going on in there, but it’s also calm and tranquil, and so nice to have this space to get ready for the day,” Sophie says. Her advice for anyone about to undertake a similar process is to have

a buffer in the budget for unexpected costs and hire a builder with a proven track record for peace of mind.

“It does get stressful, but it’s such an amazing experience, being able to take a step back and realise how lucky you are to choose the things you feel make a home beautiful and functional,” Sophie says. The pair are ready to watch their home grow alongside their family, with more than a few good meals perched at their stainless steel island along the way.

Calming: The family bathroom has been dubbed “the mermaid palace”.

Blend: The renovation respected the period character while adding amenities.

Rare units offer a world of possibilities

Industrial units, long favoured by owner occupiers, particularly those in a wide variety of trades, have usually been, well, industrial.

Now consider Foundry on Tralee in Hume, built with precast concrete panels, topped by a Colorbond roof and gutters. Rust facade panels and matt black cladding complement these external materials.

The complex comprises eight bespoke properties ranging between 156 and 230 square metres. Five are still available. Inside, the difference continues: Italian tiles, stone benchtops in well-appointed kitchens, and floor-to-ceiling tiles and showers in the bathrooms.

And there’s more: copper drum pendant lighting and floating timber staircases that lead up to spaceexpanding mezzanine levels.

High roller door access via a rear laneway is perfect for big deliveries

– or massive ventilation. And there’s customer parking in front of the units.

The development is zoned IZ2, which offers a broad range of uses, including a cafe, bar, retail shop, office and more.

Simon McGuire of Sentia Real Estate says there are no other sites like this left

in Hume. “That emphasises the rarity factor of this opportunity and that’s only enhanced by the quality of these units,” he says.

“But it’s the IZ2 zoning that is really rare in Hume and that literally opens the door for many different types of businesses.”
