Victoria, top of the charts and simply the best for lifestyle In a developing world, Victoria is leading the way ...

RICHARD WYNNE [Victorian Minister For Planning]

IT’S NO secret Victoria is at the top of the charts when it comes to the best Australian state to live, work or invest - and it’s no surprise Geelong is playing its part.

More than 1500 people have moved to Geelong’s southern suburbs in 12 months.

And it’s the fastest growing locality outside Melbourne.

We launched the Revitalising Central Geelong Action Plan to breath new life into the CBD and it’s paying dividends.

Since 2015, I have approved more than $260 million worth of construction, including office space, student housing and apartments.

These projects speak to the new-found confidence in Geelong as a major attraction for investment.

Importantly, people are choosing to live in the heart of Geelong, with a number of CBD apartment towers approved or on the drawing board.

Geelong is thriving, and it’s fast becoming one of Victoria’s most soughtafter places to live.

That’s great news for growing communities, and it’s great news for wouldbe developers too. Business is booming.

The opportunities are immense, but it also means we have to take action to protect the liveability and character that make our neighborhoods great places to work, live and raise a family.

Our new residential zoning rules do just that.

Creating stronger controls that govern what can and can’t be built means certainty for neighborhoods and spells an end to confusing planning decisions that have often meant costly and stressful gambles at VCAT.

With such an enviable lifestyle, it’s no wonder new residents are flocking to the Geelong region. (Picture CoGG)

Most importantly, the controls are helping all communities play their part in accommodating for growth - but never at the expense of our renowned liveability.

A hallmark of our reforms is our minimum garden area requirement, which will protect the much-loved Aussie backyard.

We’ve also introduced mandatory height

HELLO, I’M YOUR HOME LENDING SOLUTIONS MANAGER.

controls, so that developers know just what can be built - once and for all - and can’t cite confusing or ambiguous planning controls at VCAT. Home ownership is the great Australian dream, but it’s become harder for many young Victorians to realise.

There’s no quick and simple fix, but we’re giving young Victorians the best help they need to buy a home.

We’re abolishing stamp duty for first home buyers on homes up to $600,000, cutting stamp duty on homes valued up to $750,000, and doubling the First Home Owner Grant to $20,000 in regional Victoria.

The government is striving to make our cities and towns as liveable as possible.

We’re under no illusions that it’s a big job, but we’re up for the challenge. ●

The shape of things to come

Impressive new homes are springing up at Baywater Estate.

Enjoy waterfront living on the Bellarine.

THE Bellarine Peninsula’s most exclusive new residential estate is quietly taking shape at Curlewis.

Baywater Estate is the only residential land for sale on the Bellarine with house blocks fronting Port Phillip bay.

The estate offers a rare opportunity to enjoy relaxed waterfront living in a stunning location.

More than 140 lots have been sold and more than 40 are currently available for purchase.

Most of the new double storey homes springing up across the estate have been designed and built to take advantage of the breathtaking views across the bay to the You Yangs, the passing parade of ships into and out of Corio Bay, and the distant Melbourne skyline to the north.

New residents say living in Baywater Estate feels like a holiday resort.

It’s a short walk across the foreshore reserve to the clifftop and the stairs down to the sand, and another brief stroll along the beach to the boat harbour.

The estate is proving especially popular with boating and fishing enthusiasts.

The first five stages are fully constructed while stages six and seven are nearing completion.

Lots in stages five, six and seven are priced from $192,000.

A few large waterfront lots, ranging from 681 to 966 square metres and priced from $645,000 to $855,000, are also available.

Every lot is serviced by an optical fibre high speed broadband network.

Baywater Estate’s landscaped parklands feature two children’s playgrounds, public artworks and a viewing platform.

The estate is close to the new Curlewis Shopping Centre and a few minutes’ drive to the Drysdale Town Centre as well as existing GEELONG COAST NewHomes&Land

schools and leisure facilities, while the Geelong CBD is just 15 minutes away.

Nearby are two golf courses, many restaurants and wineries, and all the attractions that make the Bellarine such a popular holiday destination.

Curlewis is situated on the northern shores of the Bellarine. To find Baywater Estate, drive along Jetty Road to the bay, turn left at Bayshore Avenue and cross the bridge over Griggs Creek. The Bisinella Land Sales Office is on the left.

land | Warralily

Warralily Boulevard was opened on 6 July by City of Greater Geelong administrator Peter Dorling, South Barwon MP Andrew Katos and Warralily developers Sean Duke and Mark Casey.

Growing heart of community life Sales are soaring ahead of expectations ...

WARRALILY continues to move from success to success with sales for the first half of the year exceeding expectations and the first three stages in the new central neighbourhood selling out in just three months. This comes off the back of a number of exciting milestones being delivered in 2017 that will take Warralily from a growing community to an established suburb.

Soon the Warralily community will enjoy their own local shopping village that will become the heart of community life. Scheduled to open this spring, all civil works are complete and construction of the shopping centre is now well underway.

The $100 million Warralily will deliver a 4000 square metre Woolworths and BWS. According to Woolworth’s regional property manager John Robinson, the supermarket will be cutting edge in design, and provide much-needed employment.

“The store will also create more than 120 new local job GEELONG COAST NewHomes&Land

opportunities, including fulltime, part- time and casual roles,” he said.

An Aldi supermarket, 7-Eleven and McDonalds will further boost local job opportunities alongside specialty stores, a medical and dental practice, pharmacy, a gym and food outlets. The shopping hub is also conveniently located next to the state-of-the-art Armstrong Creek Education Precinct, sports precinct, Bluebird Early Education and a child and maternal healthcare centre.

The Armstrong Creek Education precinct construction is well advanced and scheduled to be completed before the end of the year for the official school opening in term one 2018.

The precinct will provide modern facilities for mainstream Prep-Year 6 and special education Prep-Year 12 co-located schools. The first-class facilities will include an indoor gym to Netball Victoria standards, outdoor hardcourts and sporting ovals, embedded environmentally

sustainability education and sensory gardens.

What’s more, the Armstrong Creek Education Precinct will be run as multi-purpose space where after school care and community programs will be offered to broader community. Future expansion of the education precinct will include the relocation of Oberon High to the secondary campus in 2021.

The community was pleased to see the completion of the 4.2km Warralily Boulevard and associated foot and cycle paths, that provide a vital connection for the 5000-strong Warralily residents from Barwon Heads Road through to the Surf Coast Highway. With the completion of these major milestones in 2017 it’s a real coming of age for Armstrong Creek’s first and largest master-planned community.

A total of 50 per cent of the urban coastal estate has been sold, with 1800 homes now occupied. When completed in 2024, Warralily will boast a population of 15,000 people. ● WINTER 2017

Our pleasure to help you Finding the right builder for new home construction.

RADLEY DE SILVA [CEO Master Builders Association of Victoria]

OVER the years, Geelong and its surrounding communities have been the locations for some of the most impressively constructed homes in Victoria.

A quick look at Master Builders’ annual Building Awards web pages offers ample proof of that, I think.

But that success doesn’t happen by accident.

The first step in building your new home should be choosing a registered builder.

It’s one of the smartest things you can do to make your own building project a success.

Before you look for a builder, develop a comprehensive budget and have clear, detailed plans.

Then ensure you are always using registered builders and tradespeople - be sure to ask for references and examples of their previous work.

Decide on what you want to achieve from the start and ensure everything is in place to prevent unforeseen, costly amendments and confusion later on.

Before committing, get at least three quotes from registered builders and understand what your budget will buy you.

Finding the right builder for your new home requires good research.

The Master Builders Association of Victoria makes that research easier with membership requirements that help ensure a high professional standard of work, background checks and the opportunity to view a wide portfolio of completed work in the awards section of our website (www. mbav.com.au) and in our publications.

Keep in mind that Master Builders has a Geelong office at 3 Melbourne Road with friendly staff ready to help direct you to useful resources.

So don’t hesitate to contact Master Builders at (03) 9411 4555. It’s our pleasure to assist you. ● 8

Supercharged savings A new government scheme aims to help first home buyers.

FIRST-HOME buyers should take advantage of a new federal scheme to supercharge their deposit savings, according to a local MP. The Turnbull Government’s First Home Super Saver Scheme came into effect on 1 July, said Corangamite MP Sarah Henderson.

The scheme, announced in this year’s budget, gave first-home savers the ability to accelerate their savings by “at least” 30 per cent, Ms Henderson said.

First home buyers could use the scheme to save for a house deposit within their superannuation by making voluntary contributions of up to $15,000 annually and $30,000 in total into their superannuation accounts, she said.

The contributions, taxed at the discounted rate of 15 per cent, along with deemed earnings, could be withdrawn for a deposit from 1 July next year. Withdrawals would be taxed at marginal tax rates less a 30 per cent offset, Ms Henderson said.

“This initiative demonstrates the Turnbull Government’s commitment to reducing the pressure on housing affordability for Corangamite residents across the entire housing spectrum, including first home buyers,” she said.

“With many Australians now entering the housing market later in life, this initiative will encourage first-home buyers to save for a deposit more quickly.”

Assistant Treasurer Michael Sukkar

said the First Home Super Saver Scheme would allow most first-time buyers to save for a deposit “faster than saving through a standard deposit account”.

Ms Henderson said the scheme was part of the government’s “comprehensive suite of measures to ease the pressure on housing affordability across the entire housing spectrum, including prospective first-home buyers”.

Further information on the First Home Super Saver Scheme is available at budget. gov.au/2017-18/content/glossies/factsheets/ html/HA_14.htm.

First home buyers can also find an indication of how the scheme can benefit them at budget.gov.au/estimator. ● GEELONG COAST NewHomes&Land

Picking the right builder First, work out what you expect.

ANDREW DESA [Palladium Homes]

The keys to your dreams ...

Upbeat housing outlook Data shows buyers ‘racing into market’.

FIRST-HOME buyers are racing back into the home market, according to an industry appraisal of recent housing finance figures.

The national data for May provided with Housing Industry Association (HIA) with an upbeat outlook after building activity figures indicated that home construction plateaued in 2016.

The finance figures pleased HIA principal economist Tim Reardon.

“First home buyers have raced back into the home market in May this year,” he said after the release of the Australian Bureau of Statistics data.

“We have seen significant growth in lending to first home buyers in many parts of the country during the month which has coincided with an increase in lending for new homes.

“This is likely to be due to the ongoing uptake of apartments that have come onto the market this year.

“Lending figures also show that the amount that first-home buyers are borrowing has remained relatively flat over the past year.

GEELONG COAST NewHomes&Land

“An increase in first-home buyers in the market is always welcome and we hope that this improvement can be sustained.

“There was also a growth in lending to new-home buyers more broadly, particularly on the east coast.”

However, Mr Reardon was concerned about reduced lending for investment properties for a second month in a row.

APRA restrictions announced at the end of March might have damaged investor confidence, he said.

“During April and May 2017 the value of lending to investors dropped by 2.5 per cent and 1.4 per cent respectively.

“This could also be due to the expectation that home price growth is likely to slow further.”

Queensland and Tasmania returned the highest increases for lending to owner occupiers, at 10.8 and 8.1 per cent respectively. Victoria was next with 6 per cent.

Mr Reardon was less buoyant about the housing start figures from the first quarter

of 2017, which indicated that construction peaked in 2016.

Building levels were not back in line with 2014 figures, he said.

“At the core of this drop in activity is primarily the slow-down in construction of new apartments and units, particularly on the east coast.

“A record number of apartments are due to come onto the market this year and the next phase of investment is now not likely to occur until the apartments currently under construction clear the market.”

Mr Reardon said the building start figures were “not cause for alarm”.

“We are coming down off the back of records levels of activity in recent years, particularly in apartments. The housing industry is well placed to balance cyclical changes in demand and HIA’s forecasts expect that we will return to a growth market before the end of the decade.

“Policy makers should be alert to the changed trend in building activity and ensure that recent policy changes don’t lead to unintended consequences.” ●

ONCE you have made the decision to build a brand new home, your head will spin at the number of registered builders that are currently in the market.

How do you choose which builder best suits you and your specific needs?

The easiest way to begin this process is to first determine what is important to you, the client.

Let’s say the purpose of this build is to have a quality built home that you will be living in for the foreseeable future.

Is interaction between the company and yourself important?

Are you looking for a high quality finish with minimal long-term maintenance?

Are you looking for a builder that regularly uses local trades which helps ensure quality?

Are you working towards a strict budget and prefer to have pricing up-front and all pricing be transparent?

When you have queries or concerns, do you prefer to have someone (preferably that you have met and know from the company) get back to you in a timely fashion?

These are all relevant and important questions you must first answer when taking the plunge of selecting a builder.

As we all know, there are plenty of display homes and websites that are available.

Take your time, visit display homes and visit websites.

If you can, speak with previous clients and gauge what their experience was like.

What they enjoyed and what they didn’t like so much about their build.

When visiting display homes, it is very important to engage the sales consultant and to look closely at the finishes throughout the homes.

Whilst it is impressive to see a swimming pool and fountain alongside an impeccable alfresco area with in-built barbeque facilities, it is important to realise that more often than not, these will not be standard inclusions.

Ask to see a standard inclusions list, don’t be afraid to ask what the price of the home is, as is.

If you do not receive a direct and honest answer, alarm bells should ring.

Once you have narrowed the field to a few select builders, next comes the quotation system.

It is hugely important that you ask as many questions during this time.

Understand what is and isn’t included as standard and what has been include in your fixed price quotation.

Ensure items are fixed price, such as site and foundation costs.

Some builders will request you deposit funds before they give you this amount.

It is common to see ‘allowance’ figures used for items such as this.

Once again, it is your right to have these figures confirmed before you make a commitment to a builder.

It is very common for some builders to have a super low entry level price, but by the time you have selected inclusions, this figure can blow out completely.

A fixed price quotation should only take a few days to be done.

If you are waiting for over a week, can this builder be relied upon to construct and manage your new build? ● WINTER 2017

Urban coastal-feel designs Factor in all the essential considerations - area, town, lifestyle, resale value and cost- when you handpick a block to build on.

CHOOSING a block of land to build on is one of the most important decisions in life.

Like all good real estate decisions, position is a crucial determinant. The area, the town, the lifestyle opportunities, the community, the resale value and the actual cost all come into the mix. They all point to why Kingston Ocean Grove land has been so popular and continues to be, with stage 34 now selling.

Many buyers of land at Kingston come from Ocean Grove and sometimes are repeat buyers. The locals know what represents good opportunity and real value.

The introduction of Kingston Ocean Grove building design guidelines has further strengthened this reality. The aims of the guidelines were to ensure that the quality, sustainability and variation of home designs are nurtured and encouraged.

The style is directed towards encouraging building design to reflect the unique urban coastal atmosphere of the location. Some of the specific guidelines also help to reduce energy costs for occupants and contribute to a better environment. Some minimise negative visual impacts for neighbours. This enhances and protects the value of homes and also ensures privacy for existing and new residents.

Another reason why Kingston land is desirable is that with every block sold, a bonus $5000 landscaping voucher is included. It is just one reason why gardens flourish, helping the general amenity, look and feel of the neighbourhood, with GEELONG COAST NewHomes&Land

residents taking pride in their properties.

Kingston Ocean Grove is an established community, with all services, including the NBN, connected. It gives residents even more opportunities to make the most of fast speed internet services, including the ability to productively work from home. Naturally, all power lines are below the ground so that all is seen is the flourishing flowering trees on the nature strips.

The beach, shops, schools, sporting facilities, the swimming pool plus major recreational facilities are all nearby. The newly announced ‘Kingston Village’ shopping centre is also just down the road and will offer an exciting new gateway to Kingston and Ocean Grove.

Major tenants announced to date include Woolworths, Aldi, Dan Murphy’s, Jetts 24hr fitness, Direct Chemist Outlet, McDonalds and Caltex Fuel, with over 550 car parking spaces. There will be 25 specialty stores and office spaces available for lease. Childcare centres, medical facilities and retirement villages will also add much-needed community facilities.

New parks, sporting ovals, leisure trails, cycling paths and treed boulevard features will be incorporated in to the development of this new precinct.

Besides all the attractions Ocean Grove has to offer, Kingston is centrally situated in the Bellarine Peninsula. Just down the road is the iconic historical town of Queenscliff.

Further along are the bayside attractions

and towns such as St Leonards, Indented Heads and Portarlington. Both Queenscliff and Portarlington now have regular sea ferries connecting the ‘other’ peninsula and Melbourne.

Wineries are also abundant, most with cellar doors, cafes and restaurants incorporated. All offer unique, award winning wines, with beautiful rural and sea views. The Bellarine is perfect for producing cool climate wines in the rich black basalt soil laid over limestone. Long, slow summers allow for the perfect ripening of the fruit producing rich, lush wines.

Surrounding Bellarine Peninsula farm gate sales also offer opportunities to eat fruit and vegies grown locally and in season.

A variety of nearby sporting and leisure choices are available. Golf, fishing, boating, cycling, tennis, basketball, netball, AFL, soccer, cricket, surfing, swimming, diving the opportunities for all ages are endless.

Or maybe the attraction is just those endless beaches, where people can stroll along anytime of the year and have a coffee afterwards. Whichever feature appeals, Kingston Ocean Grove should definitely be on anyone’s radar looking to move forward.

Country air beckons Country vibe without the hustle and bustle of city life, but with all the amenities.

TEESDALE’S Tawarri Estate offers all the benefits of country life just 30 minutes’ drive from the heart of Geelong.

Young families are flocking to the estate to purchase picturesque but affordable blocks, says Ray White Bannockburn founder David Andrews.

“The country air and lifestyle are quite appealing, but I think they’re also getting great value for money out here. It’s quite cheap.

“There have been quite a few first homebuyers because land is quite expensive in other places around the region.”

Born and bred in nearby Bannockburn, David has seen the area develop over the years.

“It’s got great access to Geelong, Melbourne and down the coast,” he says. “There’s a variety of eateries and that sort of thing popping up now.”

The area’s growing infrastructure makes it perfect to start a new family, he says.

The State Government is building a new high school in Bannockburn, due to open in January 2018, and a

GEELONG COAST NewHomes&Land

second private kindergarten recently opened nearby.

“Everything is here. There’s a lot of infrastructure going up around Bannockburn that’s helping out.”

Office manager Julie Ford has lived in Bannockburn for 15 years and loves the lifestyle. Both her adult sons live and work in the area.

“It’s a country vibe without the hustle and bustle of city life, but you’ve still got all the amenities,” she says.

“You don’t have to worry about parking and the people here are very friendly, too.”

David has sold 28 blocks of land in stage one of the estate, which will eventually total 180 properties.

“There’s only few left,” he says. “We’ve only just started on construction over the last few months.

“Now we’re launching stage two to keep the ball rolling.”

Tawarra estate has blocks ranging from 4000 to 6000 square metres and from $205,000 to $219,000 in price.

Each property comes with power, phoneline, town water and rural fencing.

“This development has a central park,” David says. “It caters well a for family environment, picnics and the like.”

“And we can work in house and land packages with the local builders.”

Already buyers are inquiring about stage two.

“My phone has not stopped this morning,” David tells New Homes and Land as his mobile rings in the background yet again.

David has sold homes and land in Bannockburn and the surrounds for 17 years, and says Ray White has half of the local market.

Both his Bannockburn agency and local Ray White agent Michael Stevenson have outstanding reviews on a national real estate website.

David is proud when he sees houses going up in his longtime hometown.

“It’s great knowing that you’re part of it,” he says.

on display | Burbank Malvern 267 & Mandalay 437

Country living close to the city Fyansford is a community that has become synonymous with easy living.

JUST 55 minutes from Melbourne’s CBD and only eight minutes from Geelong, Fyansford is removed enough that it has the rustic ambiance of the country, without sacrificing the everyday conveniences that the city accommodatingly provides.

The township is home to two of Burbank’s most functional displays, the Malvern 267 featuring the contemporary Lakeland facade, and the Mandalay 437, which features the Aqua facade.

“The homes at the Gen Fyansford estate display the range of possibility that building with Burbank provides,” says Burbank’s managing director Jarrod Sanfilippo.

“The Malvern 267 is one of our most functional singlestorey homes that showcases a fascinatingly modern facade, whilst the Mandalay 437 offers opulence and class across two storeys, seemingly short of no luxury.”

Burbank’s Gen and Elements by Burbank collections GEELONG COAST NewHomes&Land

both offer the same quality the company assures, but with different options and budgets to cater for the needs of the individual - be they first home buyers, or more established consumers looking to invest in their second or third homes.

“Our Malvern 267 brilliantly displays affordable functionality, without compromising on quality. The four bedroom and two bathroom home generously provides a family room, living room and playroom, ensuring all space is utilised,” continues Jarrod.

“The Mandalay 437 is a little different, and is an Elements

by Burbank home which offers a more lavish style of living, as its floorplan so clearly details - every bedroom in the home comes with an ensuite which is a truly luxurious inclusion that you wouldn’t find in just any home.”

“The Mandalay also offers the perfect entertaining area, situated in the back, where the kitchen flawlessly meets with the dining, living and alfresco areas, creating a beautiful

wide open space made for celebration.”

The homes are displayed in Gen Fyansford estate, a community perfectly set among an array of educational facilities from primary to tertiary, as well as being only a stone’s throw from local amenities like local sporting grounds, shops and transport options.

“Burbank has a history of over 30 years, and in that time we have helped more than 30,000 Australians create the homes of their dreams, on a variety of budgets,” Jarrod said.

“Homebuyers should certainly visit our displays in Gen Fyansford estate to speak with a new home consultant to learn why so many Australians choose Burbank. They won’t be disappointed,” Jarrod added.

The Mandalay 437 and the Malvern 267 are open 11-5pm, Wednesday to Saturday at Gen Fyansford estate.

At home with a bold new range Geelong Homes launches new range exciting news for first home buyers.

GEELONG Homes has kicked off the new financial year with a bang, launching its new range of affordable designs and stylish façades.

Geelong Homes is an award-winning family business with a local edge.

With more than 20 years of building experience, Geelong Homes is a trusted builder and firmly cemented in the local community.

Tailored to first home buyers and investors wanting to maximise on capital, Geelong Homes’ new range is expected to capture the attention of savvy home buyers.

With affordable prices and from 1 July the State Government increasing the

FHOG to $20,000 for regional Victoria, buyers can have their smashed avocado and eat it, too.

Offering three distinct ranges, buyers will be spoilt for choice with designs and stylish façade options.

“With a growing need for affordable new homes and the announcement of increased regional government incentives, we are really excited to launch our new range,” Geelong Homes general manager Andrew Carroll said.

“We are a proud local builder and employ local Geelong trades and suppliers, allowing us to provide a high quality product to our customers.”

The Compact range includes

purposefully designed homes to suit smaller smart blocks, with an affordable entry level price tag.

For those who are after something a little bigger, then the Essentials range offers nine great new designs that everyone is sure to love.

These homes include noticeable design features such as generous sized bedrooms, large en suite and walk-in wardrobe, zoned living and walk-in pantry.

“Affordable living doesn’t mean you have to compromise on chic design and modern conveniences,” Andrew said.

Those who are thinking of moving to the country won’t be able to look past the ranch-style homes on offer in Geelong

Homes’ Acreage range.

Affordability, functionality and grand design ensure these homes tick all the boxes when it comes to country living.

Buyers are sure to love the broad range of coastal, industrial and more traditional façades on offer with the new range. There is a facade to suit everyone’s taste.

The Geelong Homes new range also has a unique edge, being that many of the floor plans can be mirrored and flipped, allowing the homes to be configured in multiple ways to suit any block orientation or crossover location.

on display | Hamlan Homes Aspect

Building on a solid reputation Hamlan designs homes to suit the region’s lifestyles and landscapes.

LOCAL family owned business Hamlan has played a key role in the region’s flourishing housing market for the past 34 years.

It has grown from its origins in Anglesea, where it began rebuilding homes after the Ash Wednesday fires, to today where the company is Geelong’s largest builder employing 50 local staff as well as onsite sub-contractors.

General manager Andrew Carroll said that what makes Hamlan different is that it builds in its own backyard.

Everyone in the team lives here and is intimately familiar with the region’s lifestyles and landscapes.

“Our local perspective shapes everything we do, and as a business we take great pride in contributing to the growth of Geelong.”

In 2016 after 18 months of research, Hamlan released its new architecturally designed Aspect range. These homes were inspired by the space and freedom of the region’s coastal areas, showcasing 17 new designs with the incredible ability to reconfigure each floorplan with up to 12 options.

The range includes single and double storeys, reverse living options, an innovative design for sloping blocks and contemporary acreage homes.

The Aspect range offered an incredible opportunity for clients to take an architecturally designed, premium home

and add their own personality.

Hamlan has recently finished building six new display homes across the region that showcase some of the new Aspect floorplans and facades.

Andrew Carroll said that the company has purposely displayed the Buckley 279 home in two locations so that clients can understand how one design can feel like a new home when a different façade or option is selected.

“We chose our Scenic façade on our Buckley 279 display in Armstrong which creates a lot of light and height via the highlight windows.

“With the addition of the boat yard option to the rear of the home the dining area easily flows out to the alfresco via stacker doors.

“This is a real contrast to the Buckley 279 that is on display in Gen Fyansford with the Focus façade and its alfresco area off the meals area.”

Hamlan’s new display homes showcasing its Aspect range are open seven days a week, 11am-5pm at 8-10 Casey Boulevard, Fyansford - Gen Fyansford; 19-21 Maroubra Street, Armstrong Creek, Warralily Coast; 14 Sacramento Street, Ocean Grove - Oakdene Estate; 47-49 Unity Drive, Mt Duneed Armstrong Estate.

Best value for money Lee specialises in unique facades and floor plans, and “seamless” transitions.

ENSO Homes founder Lee Selkrig learnt some of his most important lessons while building his previous family home - a 35sq dwelling in Sandhurst.

“We went to many display home villages but found they were all the same,” the 30-year-old father of two says.

“When we moved in and had the chance to reflect on the build process and how we were using space, I realised how much money we had wasted in hallway space.”

So now Lee is all about reducing hallways and maximising private open space, to get the best value for money.

“It’s definitely more value because you’re not spending it on spaces that you’re underutilising.”

Lee founded Enso Homes 18 months ago to build properties with unique facades and floor plans, and “seamless” transitions from indoor to outdoor areas.

“Everyone wants to watch their kids play outside while they’re inside in the living areas,” he says.

“It’s just a bit alternative to what everyone’s used to - we have a high focus on including atriums that bring light into areas that don’t usually attract natural light.

Enso Homes has tailor-made it’s expansive Home Collection to suit the Surf Coast and new estates in Armstrong Creek and on the Bellarine, Lee says.

And Lee lives what he sells - he moved to Armstrong Creek with his wife and two girls when they set up his business.

“We’re right in amongst it,” he says.

“We love it here. The park’s close and there’s a new school coming.”

Enso Homes also specialises in homes for downsizers and young professionals \

who are “house proud”.

“Our goal is to offer a small product with street appeal,” Lee says.

Enso Homes build zone is from Werribee to Torquay and everything in between including the Bellarine Peninsula. Lee feels privileged to be part of Geelong’s “construction boom”.

“The company’s grown quickly,” he says.

“I had a feeling it would, but it’s definitely caught on a lot faster than what I thought.”

The recent doubling of the first homeowners grant and new estates “popping up” all over Geelong had Lee excited about the future.

“I think (commerce) is quite healthy down here at the moment. I’m not a longtime resident, but I can feel it changing.

Geelong is not as industrial as it once was.”

Enso Homes is Lee’s first foray as a builder and the business has grown to employ 10 people.

“If I was 80 and I (hadn’t had) a crack, I think I’d look back with regret,” he says.

Enso Homes hires local subcontractors as much as possible.

“Businesses are much more accountable down here - everyone’s more thankful for the business they’ve been given.”

He prides himself on being “more attentive” to his clients than some larger builders.

“They mean a bit more to us because our business is younger - they’re not just a number.”

Stroud, Innovative and cost-effective MICHAEL Gray has been flat out since opening Stroud Homes Geelong, the company’s newest office in the country.

“It’s been pretty full-on since then,” he says. “We’re building everywhere from Lara through to Bannockburn, Winchelsea, Colac and Lorne.”

Michael loves “every aspect” of constructing homes, but the best part is seeing a new family move in, he says.

“There’s nothing better than that. You see them six or eight months down the track, and they’re still very happy - it shows you’re doing something right.”

Stroud’s 81 standard inclusions set it apart from other builders, Michael says.

The company’s homes come complete with kitchen tiling, a cook top, stone benches, a dishwasher, TV antennae and more.

“The list just goes on!” Michael says.

“It’s the next bit above other builders.”

Michael has more than two decades in the building industry as a roofer and carpenter. He grew up in Geelong and Colac before moving to Cairns. He worked for the past 12 years as a subcontractor and building supervisor. The 38-year-old moved back to Mt Duneed three months ago with his family of six, and he loves the challenge of Geelong’s housing market.

“It’s a bit of sea change for everybody,” he says. “We were looking for something totally different.

“All my side of the family’s down here, so we decided to come down, have a go with Stroud and mix it up with some of the big players.”

Michael strives to build beautiful homes at affordable prices.

“It’s all about quality products and quality workmanship,” he says. “If you don’t have both of those, then you’ve got a pretty dodgy build.

“Geelong and the Surf Coast will benefit from a new innovative and cost-effective building company such as Stroud Homes.”

And Michael is more than happy to “span out further” if asked.

“I’ve had quite a few inquiries from Ballarat and Warrnambool,” he says.

Michael is proud to be one of the newest members of Stroud Homes.

“All the builders in the group have a wealth of knowledge,” he says.

“If we’ve got a question, we can call up the next guy for advice - we all work together even though we’re independently owned.”

interiors | Bombora Custom Furniture

Stylish, warm features in timber Building a new home is a very exciting time, but the sheer volume of options can become overwhelming. Whatever your personal style, whether it is luxe industrial, modern coastal or contemporary, adding timber to the interior of your home adds a sense of warmth and luxury without breaking the budget.

TIMBER has been used to decorate the interiors of homes for centuries because of its innate beauty, uniqueness and malleability.

A well-made timber piece with a simple silhouette has a timelessness that sees it always in style with a quality that lasts for decades.

The beauty of commissioning a piece of custom furniture is that you get to design the style, function and size to ensure it is the

perfect fit for you and your home.

Adding timber to the interior of your home does not need to be an expensive exercise.

A couple of simple timber shelves can completely transform a space. By commissioning a custom piece, you are able to dictate the budget that you need to work within and suggestions can be made on what timber and design to choose to stay within your budget.

Using timber in the interior of your home not only adds beauty, it also adds value.

Unlike most other materials used in building a house, solid timber gets better with age and is fixable.

The natural oil and wax finish used on the timber leaves it looking and feeling like timber while protecting it from water and stains. The best part about this finish is that it is repairable. Small scratches disappear before your eyes with the application of the

maintenance oil and larger damage can be spot-sanded with a new application of the finish.

Bombora creates both custom furniture pieces such as dining tables, beds and buffets as well as in-built items such as solid timber vanities, floating desks and entertainment units.

Region’s opportunities so enticing There are exciting times ahead for Geelong.

DANNI ADDISON [Urban Development Institute Of Australia Victorian Chief Executive Officer]

WITH a range of lifestyle choices and a far more affordable housing market than its nearby capital city, it’s no wonder Geelong is growing.

But with growth comes change, presenting a range of opportunities and challenges for the region that must be addressed now.

Victoria’s regional areas have evolved greatly over the past few years.

In Geelong, especially, we are seeing unprecedented population growth which will continue to change the face of Victoria’s second major city.

While population growth is a great thing - unlocking opportunity, and reinforcing the strong economic foundations of the region - the growth must be planned for effectively if residents are to continue to benefit from relatively affordable real estate and easy access to jobs, services and amenities.

If we look to Melbourne, we see that the residential property industry is struggling to deliver enough housing to accommodate the growing population, causing a serious housing affordability crisis.

There’s many factors feeding into this issue; primarily related to lagging policy settings, and an inefficient planning system that constrains supply; but for Geelong this presents an opportunity to learn from Melbourne’s mistakes and do things differently.

As the Geelong region continues to

grow and gentrify, the housing supply and demand equation will change dramatically.

We can expect to see more people wanting to live in the area, with added

value placed on its access to Melbourne, job opportunities and attractive lifestyle options.

The big challenge for Geelong is to

ensure the region is prepared for the population growth that we know is coming.

Investment in enabling infrastructure, like major roads and train stations, will be

news | UDIA

for buyers with a hunger In Geelong, especially, we are seeing unprecedented population growth which will continue to change the face of Victoria’s second major city…

Stylish new developments around the Geelong region including Armstrong Creek. vital to the continued strong growth of the region.

Infrastructure plays a key role in unlocking opportunity and facilitating

employment and sustainable lifestyle options.

Future housing developments also have a big role to play.

The residential development industry will need to work hard to deliver a wider and more diverse range of quality housing to the region, enabling new and existing residents to live comfortably and enjoy all that Geelong offers.

Ensuring a long-term pipeline of land supply in the area is critical to advancing Geelong’s liveability and its growing community.

While the urban development industry plays a large role in realising the housing potential in the Geelong region, there are additional factors that need to be addressed by government and key policy makers if we are to keep housing in the area affordable and attainable; namely the consistent supply of land, healthy levels of competition and reasonable infrastructure rates.

Exciting times lie ahead for Geelong.

If our state and local government policy makers plan appropriately and enable the development industry to create the homes and communities required in the Geelong region, the imminent growth and ongoing gentrification of this vibrant area will benefit its existing and future community enormously. ●

window coverings | Brax

Warm up your home this winter Keeping a home warmer in winter starts with the windows.

SO MUCH heat can be lost through uncovered glass which can be felt by just touching the glass.

Research shows that up to 30 per cent of heat loss in a home occurs through uncovered windows.

There are roller blinds on the south of homes that are only ever used in the colder months, for exactly that reason.

They are hidden away under pelmets so they are not noticed until they are needed.

These windows are double glazed, but it’s incredible the difference the extra layer of insulation can make.

There are plenty of options dressing your windows but some will provide better insulation benefits than others.

The important thing to remember is that hot air is drawn down and out through the glass so having close fitting blinds and a blind with a solid top or covering blinds with a pelmet will prevent this convection effect.

By far the most superior blind available for insulation is the Duette Architella Shades range, from Luxaflex.

These unique cellular honeycomb blinds feature a contemporary look while providing efficient insulation - featuring a cell within a cell structure, with three distinct air pockets that are designed to trap air and deflect heat, helping to reduce heating costs.

Duette shades are available in a range of operating options, including motorisation using PowerView that effectively integrates blinds into a home automation system or are able to be operated via remote control or

app control via a smartphone or tablet.

There’s also the ability to set and program them to open and close at certain times of the day - which means they can be set to close and keep a home warm on those nights when residents are home late.

Often considered an old fashioned option, fully lined drapes or curtains, once again paired with a pelmet are also a highly effective insulator against heat loss.

Drapes really are something people either like or don’t like, often depending on your past experiences with them.

They have become quite popular again recently.

They not only insulate well, they also provide great light blockout, making them perfect for bedrooms.

Fabric choices for curtains are almost endless, with prints and plains, through to linens, silks and textured options.

Velvet is another fabric that has seen a resurge in popularity and lends itself well to being used for drapes, giving a richness and warmth that comes from both the choice of fabric and the insulation benefits the drapes provide.

When it comes to choosing pelmets, simple is often best. A plain timber pelmet will provide the desired extra insulation, and can be painted to match the wall allowing it to blend seamlessly into existing decor.

Having something on windows is better than nothing.

For further information contact Cal Stewart at Brax, 332 Pakington St, Newtown, telephone 5221 5533. ●

A sense of warmth and space can be so inviting.

Curtains can beat the heat loss.

Give yourself climate control.

building | Building Surveyors

Building permit changes kick in Changes to building laws put the onus on owners to appoint a building surveyor, bypassing builders.

DEAN BERTUCH [MAIBS Registered Building Surveyor]

SINCE 1 July 1994, owners and builders have been able to choose whether they appoint a private building surveyor or municipal building surveyor to issue a building permit. Changes to Section 78 of the Building Act 1993 occurred on 1 September 2016 which relate specifically to the appointment of private building surveyors.

The change relates to domestic work only with the main driver being consumer protection.

The new provision now means that owners or a formally appointed agent of the owner will be required to appoint the private building surveyor whereas previously the builder could appoint the private building surveyor directly.

Under the new provisions, the Victorian Building Authority (VBA) fact sheet notes that the formally appointed agent of the owner cannot be the builder.

The fact sheet goes on to say the change (to the appointment provisions) does not prohibit a builder from recommending a private building surveyor to an owner.

Transitional arrangements will be made for any contracts entered into prior to 1 September 2016. I expect by now most builders are well and truly across these new changes.

Role of the building surveyor What is the role of a building surveyor?

Most reading this will have a pretty

good understanding of what the role of a building surveyor, however occasionally I have experienced there is still some misunderstanding.

It is important to note, the role of a building surveyor is not that of a supervisor of the works, as he or she is not on site at all times during construction.

Your building surveyor has a statutory role where appointed under the Building Act to issue building permits, carry out mandatory inspections during the construction phase and issue an occupancy permit upon completion.

Over the journey of the design and construction of your dwelling, your building surveyor will assess the plans for compliance with the relevant regulations codes and standards, issue a building permit where appropriate and inspect works at three minimum mandatory inspection phases namely footings, framework and final.

Other inspection phases however may be requested and agreed upon by the owner and or builder.

From my 30 years’ experience in the building surveying profession, the key to a successful project outcome is all parties working together and clear lines of communication. Pretty simple, “if in doubt, ask”.

The VBA website has some further useful information for consumers which can be found at www.vba.vic.gov.au ●

RIPPLESIDE’S Susan Pehar developed her love for interior design in the mid-90s sprucing up the office of her first workplace - a Richmond Law firm.

“I would purchase flowers and designer stationary,” the mother-of-three says.

“I would go into the boss’ office and rearrange his desk.”

“My mum would redecorate her house all the time, and I picked up these attributes from her which, in turn, influenced me.”

Her path changed completely when she and her husband moved to Geelong West in 1998 and renovated their home.

“The process completely enriched me, and I gave up the law for a diploma in interior design and decoration,” she says.

In 2009, Susan launched ducksnest. a boutique contemporary design service, which blends style and sophistication with form and function.

She enjoys working with clients in fine detail to create a unique vision for their home, within their budget.

“I embrace every aspect of the design process,” she says. “It’s so gratifying to see customers happy with the end result.”

From masterminding an iconic cafe’s new look to giving new life to a family home, ducksnest. collaborates with commercial and residential clients to create modern classics.

“If you want timeless modern appeal, let’s talk,” Susan says.

Whether it’s a new build or the reimagining of a single room, ducknest. provides each client with a customised holistic look, Susan says.
