Note from the editor
This edition brings luxury living to the centre stage. On our cover, we unveil a striking new development in Denman Prospect that will soon feature sophisticated three and four-bedroom townhouses. These homes are destined to hit the sweet spot for buyers seeking extra space but a convenient lock-up-and-leave lifestyle. See page 12 for more. We also step inside a breathtaking dream home in Griffith (p14) by renowned architect Ken Oliphant, where an elegant renovation marries a modern touch with period details. And for design lovers, turn to our feature on sunken lounges (p18). This interiors element is making a bold comeback, reimagined for contemporary homes. See how to pull it off!
Some homes just punch above their weight in style, space and amenity. This is the case at 4 Sparkes Close, Fadden. A front verandah is as picturesque as a white picket fence, while behind are elegant timber-framed bay windows.
Inside the immaculate four-bedroom, two-bathroom home, you’ll discover warm, light-filled spaces, a kitchen featuring a stone-topped island and walk-in pantry, and charming sash windows and French doors.
Hive Property’s Matt Shipard says it has been thoughtfully renovated and features living spaces that flow to the big ticket item: an alluring resort-style outdoor entertaining area and pool.
“All of this is set in an elevated Fadden hills position on a meticulously maintained 1348-square-metre block with uninterrupted mountain views,” he says.
The double garage includes an additional studio and en suite, which can be used as a teenager’s retreat or home office.
The private sale has a price guide of $1.65 million-plus.

The interiors feature spacious living zones and elegant finishes, from the European oak floors and floor-to-ceiling double-glazed stacked doors to the Italian marble splashback.

Have you ever imagined a life of refinement in the heart of one of Canberra’s best suburbs?
That vision becomes reality with Ever – a sophisticated residential offering in Denman Prospect from Core Developments.
Twenty-six spacious townhouses with 172 to 246 square metres of internal space, are now available.
These three and four-bedroom homes offer huge living areas, wine storage, private lifts and designer kitchens.
This low-density development on the north-western side of the suburb will provide space and incredible views. It will sit just a short walk or drive from Denman Prospect’s central hub and its shops, cafes, playgrounds and restaurants.
Project manager Daniel Ujdur says there will be a sense of community within the development.
“We wanted to keep it at a lower density than what we were originally approved for, so there are fewer dwellings on the site than there could be,” he says.
“They’re all larger, too, because we understand that people want space.
“We want to create a community where owners can confidently lock up and leave, but without compromising scale or style.”
Every detail within Ever speaks to a higher standard of living: think electric fireplaces, sumptuous main-bedroom suites, and seamless indoor-outdoor integration to landscaped courtyards.
“This is not just a residence; it’s a lifestyle investment,” Ujdur says.
The masterful design will be especially appealing to those considering a luxurious lifestyle transition.
With a strong appeal for the over55 demographic, Ever offers the rare opportunity to “rightsize” without sacrificing elegance or comfort.
Each townhouse is unique, with facades and finishes designed to reflect the natural surroundings and individual positions within the enclave.
Some homes offer tranquil private courtyards with pools, while others include expansive terraces, soaring ceilings or elevated views of the Molonglo Valley and beyond.
“There is flexibility and multiple options for buyers,” Ujdur says. “The buyer here might want to own a larger

space for families, or choose one of the three-bedroom options if they want something that’s ... easier to maintain.”
It won’t be long before Ever starts coming together. Building approvals are in place, and pre-sales will open in the next couple of weeks.
Ujdur says an early to mid-2027 completion date remains likely.
Core Developments is recognised for delivering timely and impeccable projects.
Canberrans might be familiar with the firm’s Salt in Kingston and Nue in Gungahlin, but it is also right at home in Denman Prospect, with its Boulevard project marking the suburb’s cornerstone.
Renowned architects Fender Katsalidis is behind the design, and Department of Design is looking after the interiors.
“The size and the inclusions are what we anticipate being most appealing about these homes,” Ujdur says.
“They’re bigger than most houses [in Denman Prospect] that are available on the market right now.”
A planned major shopping centre in the Molonglo Valley is also a drawcard,
serving as the primary commercial hub for Coombs, Wright, Denman Prospect and Whitlam.
It’s set to feature a large retail provider, a library, a community centre, a high school and other amenities to serve the fast-growing region.
The Stromlo Leisure Centre, world-class mountain bike trail network and some of Canberra’s best walking trails enable residents to adopt an active lifestyle.
Both the Evelyn Scott School and Stromlo Forest Anglican School (under construction) will also be available. Ever truly caters to all, and there is no need to wait to be settled in your dream home in the heart of Denman Prospect –arguably Canberra’s best suburb ... ever.

It’s a straight stroll along Flinders Way in Griffith to the cafe and retail precinct that is Manuka Village.
More precisely, it’s just a 10-minute walk from this four-bedroom house, whose original bones date back to 1939 and were the vision of one of Canberra’s most influential early architects.
That gives 65 Flinders Way an impressive provenance when you consider that its architect, Ken Oliphant, worked for the architectural firm of Oakley and Parkes, which sat behind The Lodge and Calthorpe’s House.
Not a bad story with which to impress the dinner guests.
If that’s not enough, Canberra Grammar School is about the same short walk in the other direction.
Mario Sanfrancesco of Blackshaw Manuka says the location makes this an enviable address.
“Anywhere in the Inner South is prized, but to be so close to Manuka and to one of the best schools in Canberra is something special,” he says.
“This is going to really be appealing, particularly to the family buyer.”
There’s something else that adds a little extra elan – the 1130-square-metre property sits on an elevated slip lane with just a handful of other homes for maximum privacy.
Add all that up and we have a home that effortlessly highlights the charm of old Canberra while offering all the conveniences of today.
Its character features include herringbone-laid European oak floors, marble in the kitchen and bathrooms, high ceilings and skirtings, sash windows and plantation shutters.
Sanfrancesco says the home is a perfect example of how a heritage design can be given a new lease of life.
“You couldn’t get more Canberra as far as kerb appeal is concerned,” he says.
“But the extension and renovation have leveraged that history to meet modern lifestyle needs.”
The floor plan is simple but effective. Beyond the foyer are four bedrooms, one
of which features a wood fireplace and could also serve as a study.
The main-bedroom suite is highlighted by a floor-to-ceiling bay window, ideal as a reading nook, and a complete wall of built-in wardrobes.
The luxurious en suite features marble, subway and KitKat tiles, as well as rounded walls.
The balance of the floor plan is dedicated to the kitchen, family and dining area, highlighted by a larger wood fireplace.
There’s quite a list of brands and features in the stylish kitchen. This includes marble benchtops, Siemens ovens, Qasair rangehood, Liebherr fridge and freezer, in-bench cooking system, integrated Miele dishwasher, step-in pantry, apron-front sink, custom cabinetry and double wine fridge.
Custom double doors lead to an additional casual living space that can easily be adapted to serve as a games room or home theatre.
Comfort is provided through ducted air-conditioning and hydronic heating.
Sanfrancesco says the living space has a strong connection with the outdoors.
“There’s nothing better than a view of an inviting pool – even in the cooler months,” he says.
That’s certainly part of the appeal of the outdoor facilities, including two front patios and an extensive poolside terrace to the rear.
An electric awning promises to take some of the sting out of summer.
The home is completed by a double lock-up garage with rear access. There is a further rear single garage, perfect for a studio or yoga room, and an additional parking bay at the front.
“The home is very competitively priced given the location and what it offers,” Sanfrancesco says.
“There’s plenty of interest from potential family buyers – and downsizers, too, who love the combination of single-level living and a low-maintenance block.”

At a time when hosting at home is popular again, designers are rediscovering the sunken lounge, long considered the ultimate entertainer.
Stylish, dramatic and retro-cool, this space has been coveted for decades for its ability to create a warm, cosy and intimate atmosphere that sparks conversations and genuine connections.
“Living in a modern, connected society, we crave spaces that force us to interact and face each other head-on,” says Thomas Martin of Rama Architects.
“Sunken lounges feel like a room unto themselves. It’s the perfect gathering point where everyone can take up space playing games, reading, talking or watching a film – sometimes all at the same time.”
Reaching peak popularity in the 1950s and ’60s, the sunken lounge, or conversation pit, re-emerged in the 2010s thanks to Don Draper’s chic version in the television series Mad Men. Fast-forward to 2025, and this playful yet functional lounge setting has become a high-performing element perfect for all gatherings.
“Today, we have a greater appreciation for mid-century design, including
projects with sunken lounges,” says Chris Haddad from Archier. “Its success lies in letting go of preconceived notions of what it was, and understanding how it can function now in contemporary life.”
While open living spaces provide countless advantages, defining areas within them can prove challenging.
“We’re seeing a shift back towards individual rooms, and the conversation pit offers the best of both worlds – a change of levels creating the split and a strong connection to adjoining rooms,” says designer Mardi Doherty.
Haddad agrees. “By lowering furniture’s visual barrier, we provide the other openplan spaces with unobstructed exterior views,” he says.
A sunken lounge introduces subtle shifts in floor levels, creating a beautifully sculptural interior.
“It works well in most open plan areas and can range from medium-sized at 4000 by 4200 millimetres to more generous at 5000 by 5200 millimetres,” Haddad says.
Practical: These functional lounge designs are perfect for all types of gatherings.
Below: A conversation pit should be positioned off to the side, rather than in the centre of a room.
“Space is needed to excavate down, which is possible with a lightweight floor or a cavity beneath it.”
If you live on a concrete slab or a similar foundation, you can achieve a similar feel without altering your home’s structure.
“Use a low bookcase to define the edges of your couches,” Haddad suggests. “This creates a built-in appearance.”
Equally as important as its design is its location. Positioning your sunken lounge off to the side, rather than centrally, helps prevent visitors from accidentally stepping back into it.
“Tuck it away into a corner,” suggests Berit Barton from Pleysier Perkins. “A soft floor covering also helps, just in case!”
Unlike the rigidity of a linear sofa, curved or L-shaped lounges encourage relaxation, chatter and connection.
“Built-in furniture forms a base for your space and is great for hosting larger groups,” Barton says.
“Rugs and pillows make it even more inviting, and a shaggy rug encourages people to laze on the floor.”
Built-in furniture maximises the pit’s internal footprint, increases seating and provides a soft barrier between levels.
” It also allows for custom furniture elements that tie into its architecture, including steps, perimeter walls and set downs, and joinery elements within the space,” says Cassie James-Herrick from CJH Studio.

This could be the last opportunity for hospitality operators who want to stake a place in the vibrant Eat Street precinct in Dickson’s buzzing DKSN development.
The remaining ground-floor tenancies are now being offered for sale or lease. Unit sizes range from 33 square metres to 390 square metres and are equipped with grease traps and exhaust risers. Many also feature outdoor dining areas and allocated tenant parking.
Kristian Nel of Burgess Rawson says DKSN is proving to be a popular spot.
“It’s really injected a new buzz into an area that is delivering a fresh take on food and new choices in Dickson,” Nel says.
“Hospitality operators are seeing the appeal of being located among a big pool of residents and commuters.”
Popular foodie drawcards in the thriving precinct include the Bahn Mi Shack,
Sushi Me, Loca, De Doughnut, Chong Co Thai, Zaiqah, and the Two Before Ten cafe.
DKSN is anchored by an IGA supermarket and hosts more than 300 residential apartments, with a further 3000 units in the neighbouring area.
More than 2500 employees, including about 1500 government staff, are based in the precinct across several buildings. To top it off, there is also strong foot traffic, with more than 18,000 daily commuters using the Dickson light rail stop and the bus interchange.
