High-rise developer Level 33 is continuing to venture out of its Wollongong heartland.

The developer, which has several projects completed, underway, and planned in the third-largest city in New South Wales, is heading to Homebush, where it plans to develop more than 300 apartments across two towers.

Like most developers, it has sought approval through the NSW Government’s Housing Delivery Authority, filing a State Significant Development Application for the $127.6 million project.

The DKO-designed towers, 27 and 35 storeys in height, will replace seven detached homes. The apartments will sit above a four-storey podium, which will be crowned with a pool, dining areas, and landscaped spaces.

According to the Urban Design Report prepared by DKO Architecture, the proposal “supports residential growth with housing diversity” and is designed to “create inviting, safe public spaces with strong environmental amenity that encourage social interaction and pedestrian movement”.

Level 33, founded by Eddy Haddad, has thousands of apartments in the pipeline. They have their 500-plus-unit WIN Grand redevelopment, and another 900 units to be developed in replace of the old Bunnings Warehouse on the corner of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/60-74-flinders-street-wollongong">Gipps and Flinders Streets</a>.

They are soon to launch their second stage of their Kogarah development, and will also hope to&nbsp;launch Summit Wollongong, later this year, pending approvals to upsize the development to have over 330 apartments. Also set to hit the market is their boutique Kiama development, Elan.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/consolidated-properties">Consolidated Properties Group</a> (CPG) has unveiled Gloriette, its new 25-storey luxury residential tower set to rise within its Yeerongpilly Green (YG) precinct in Brisbane’s inner south.&nbsp;

Designed by award winning architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a>, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/gloriette-30-bedivere-street-yeerongpilly-qld-4105">Gloriette</a> will deliver 181 luxury two- and three bedroom apartments on King Arthur Terrace, offering uninterrupted views across the Brisbane River, Indooroopilly Golf Course and the Brisbane CBD.&nbsp;

The reveal of the project follows its development approval by Brisbane City Council within the evolving <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/yeerongpilly-green-21-queens-way-yeerongpilly-qld-4105">Yeerongpilly Green</a> masterplanned community late last year.&nbsp;

The formal market launch will be later this year.

The name “Gloriette” is drawn from classical European architecture, referring to a garden pavilion traditionally set within palace landscapes.&nbsp;

CPG says its choice reflects Gloriette’s strong connection to landscape, outlook and amenity, with refined architecture complemented by lush gardens, exceptional rooftop facilities and an emphasis on light, views and liveability.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150713 project_image_fid=359985]

Set on a 4,323 sqm site, Gloriette has been designed to integrate with its surroundings, prioritising green space and community connection with more than 2,000 sqm of landscaped gardens to surround the tower, creating privately owned, publicly accessible parkland. Located within one of Brisbane’s 2032 Olympic Games precincts, the development is literally minutes’ walk of the future Olympic tennis venue and the upgraded Yeerongpilly Cross River Rail station.&nbsp;

CPG Head of Residential James MacGinley says Gloriette represents a defining addition to the Yeerongpilly Green precinct.&nbsp;

Gloriette is a natural evolution of Yeerongpilly Green and our commitment to creating places where people genuinely love to live,” MacGinley said.&nbsp;

“The views from Gloriette will be unlike anything else in Brisbane. Elevated northern aspects taking in two reaches of the Brisbane River, Indooroopilly and Brisbane golf courses, the city skyline and Mt Coot-tha are exceptionally rare. We expect buyers will immediately recognise the uniqueness of this opportunity.&nbsp;

“The generous apartment sizes will appeal to people looking to downsize without compromise, offering luxury, spacious, light filled apartment living without the intensity of inner-city congestion.

“Developments like Gloriette also play an important role in addressing Brisbane’s housing needs, with the potential to free up 181 houses for local families.”&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=150713 project_image_fid=359988]

Gloriette will complement the award-winning YG Riverside Village, home to Woolworths, Goodlife Health Clubs, new Doctors surgery and a growing dining precinct that continues to attract locals and visitors alike.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/hutchinson-builders">Hutchinson Builders</a> has been appointed as builder, with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/colliers">Colliers</a> International confirmed as sales agent. A dedicated display suite is scheduled to open for the public launch in the second half of 2026 in a heritage-listed Queenslander opposite the site.&nbsp;

Andrew Scriven, Director of Residential at Colliers International, says buyer interest is already building.&nbsp;

“Gloriette offers a rare opportunity to secure a high-end riverside home within a major lifestyle precinct,” Scriven said.&nbsp;

“We’re inviting buyers to sign up to the VIP list today to receive exclusive updates, early information and priority access ahead of the formal launch.”

Consolidated Properties Group unveils Gloriette in Yeerongpilly Green precinct

Develotek has secured State Significant Development approval for its 34-storey mixed-use tower on the Pacific Highway in Chatswood.

The developer pumped up the height under the in-fill affordable housing uplift to create a 101-unit building with 27 apartments dedicated as affordable. It was previously approved for 89 apartments across a 27-storey tower.

In granting consent, the NSW Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure cited the project’s alignment with state and regional planning objectives, including the National Housing Accord and the Chatswood CBD Strategy. It will also pump over $107 million of capital investment into the state, as well as 180 operational jobs and 182 construction jobs.

The site, across <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/691-699-pacific-highway-chatswood-nsw-2067">691-699 Pacific Highway</a>, sits around 500 metres from the Chatswood Transport Interchange and within walking distance of the retail core.

Designed by Squillace Architects, the tower will rise to 117 metres and sit above a two-storey podium and eight basement levels of parking. The residential mix includes one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, with affordable housing to be managed by a registered community housing provider for a minimum of 15 years.

The tower’s built form is characterised by a slender, articulated residential element set above a more robust podium, with commercial uses activating the street edge. Communal amenities are located within the podium and upper levels, including landscaped open space, a pool, gym, and shared facilities, contributing to resident amenity while reinforcing the mixed-use nature of the precinct.

&nbsp;

The approval represents one of the larger residential-led developments to proceed under the NSW Government’s infill affordable housing pathway, reinforcing Chatswood’s role as a high-density employment and residential centre on Sydney’s North Shore.

Chatswood is going through another growth phase, with the likes of Changfa Group, Billbergia, Coronation, Tian An LFD, Bridgestone, and Hyecorp all planning projects in the suburb. The NSW Gov is also proposing a further <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/nsw/nsw-gov-landcom-plan-1-500-new-apartments-in-chatswood-cbd">1,500 new homes on the former contruction site of the Sydney Metro</a>.

Develotek secures approval for 34-storey Chatswood tower

Off the plan apartments buyers have started to move into <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/louise-melbourne-8-louise-street-melbourne-vic-3004">Louise</a>, the flagship Albert Park apartment development by local developer Samuel Property.

Construction firm Hamilton Marino has recently completed the two-year build of the 16-storey Louise Street tower, just off St Kilda Road.

Developer Illan Samuel says the project’s strong sales result, with around 90 per cent of apartments sold ahead of its construction completion, is a “good news story for Melbourne”.

“Melbourne hasn’t had the easiest time in the off the plan development space in recent years,” Samuel says, pointing to rising taxes and limited growth in the established property market. However, there are signs of improvement, with build costs having normalised and now “only moving modestly”, and improving sentiment among buyers both local and interstate that Melbourne is the city of opportunity.

Samuel attributes the success of Louise to a combination of the project team, design, location and apartment mix, noting strong investor interest driven by high rental yields and comparatively low body corporate fees.

While only about 20 apartments are currently being leased, they are achieving yields of between 5.5 and 6 per cent.

“The maths show investors are receiving neutral or even positive cash flow on a city-fringe residential asset that has grown by around 5 per cent year on year for the past three years&nbsp;based on our pricing strategy on&nbsp;incremental price rises during construction and sales milestones, while much of the broader market has remained relatively flat,” he says.

<img alt="Samuel" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="79b97c26-6fc6-4887-984a-8de45f0e1e6d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/8-Louise-St-33.jpg?VersionId=Egjy9IyMg5Y9M3X1WTEQU0riRCDAdLVG" />

A handful of apartments remain, with one-beds starting from $595,000, two's from $779,000, and three-beds from $2,445,000. All but one sub penthouses have been sold, and that is priced from just shy of $14 million. It has four bedrooms and five bathrooms across its 600 sqm, and parking for five cars.

Darren Blair from Blair Property Group has handled the sales campaign.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cera-stribley-architects">Cera Stribley</a> designed the 89-unit building, on the fringe of St Kilda Road and Albert Park, to respond directly to its heritage-rich context, where historic mansions and retained period buildings continue to shape the streetscape.&nbsp;

The completed building reflects this influence through its brick façade and art-deco detailing, drawing cues from neighbouring heritage structures while delivering a contemporary residential format suited to modern inner-city living.

<img alt="Cera Stribley" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c6067811-6d0d-4057-b77c-2b5fde0a5602" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/8-Louise-St-36.jpg?VersionId=YfEOR_L10AI4JgGDtD_ZjaxeT0DL4PRe" />

Amenities were conceived as an extension of daily life rather than a checklist of inclusions. Residents now have access to a ground-floor pool illuminated by a central skylight, a fully equipped gym, steam room, private dining room, lounge, and a landscaped outdoor terrace that wraps the communal spaces.&nbsp;

The amenity offering reflects a biophilic design approach, with water and greenery used to soften the building’s urban setting and support wellbeing.

Samuel now shifts its focus to <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/hali-dromana-105-111-point-nepean-road-dromana-vic-3936">Hali</a>, its beachside townhouse development in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/dromana-vic-3936">Dromana</a>, which has been popular among city dwellers looking for a low-maintenance bolthole on the Mornington Peninsula.

Samuel recently began the construction phase of the&nbsp;73-townhome community, one of the most unique developments the Mornington Peninsula has seen in decades.

Sydney’s Transport Oriented Development applications continue to flood into the NSW Government, as developers seek to trigger the uplift encouraged by the government around the city’s key transport hubs.

The latest State Significant Development application, which is assessed by the NSW Government’s Housing Delivery Authority, is in Carlingford, where a consortium known as the Carlingford Unit Trust has proposed a trio of buildings delivering 136 apartments, 25 of which will be dedicated to affordable housing and managed by Link Wentworth.

The corner site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/241-245-pennant-hills-road-carlingford-nsw-2118">241–245 Pennant Hills Road</a>, near the junction of Pennant Hills and Jenkins roads, is located just 250 metres from the new Carlingford Light Rail station.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/kennedy-associates-architects">Kennedy Associates Architects</a> has designed the three buildings, which will sit above a 98-place childcare centre, six commercial tenancies and a gym. Residents will have access to 2,680 sqm of communal open space across rooftop and podium levels.

&nbsp;

<img alt="241-245 Pennant Hills Road, Carlingford" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d515b5a6-2844-40cb-95da-1e613b49c945" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Carlingford%20Central%20da%203.png?VersionId=..LzSSX12YvB4zX69bBYOJG5gNvk5xN5" />

“The development...will deliver a significant addition to the wider Parramatta region,” Kennedy Associates noted in their Design Report, adding that the project aims to “enrich the street environment and local character of Carlingford”.

The tallest element of the proposal is an 18-storey tower to the northeast of the site (Building A), flanked by two smaller 4–5 storey buildings (Buildings B and C) along the western edge. Basement levels will accommodate 263 car spaces, allocated across residential, commercial, childcare, gym, and visitor use.

Sustainability features include passive solar design, cross ventilation, deep soil zones, and compliance with BASIX and NatHERS benchmarks. Communal open spaces have been designed to enhance residential amenity, with spaces positioned to benefit from solar access and outlooks over the broader district, including potential views to Parramatta and Sydney CBDs.

<img alt="241-245 Pennant Hills Road, Carlingford" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2f638af3-17fd-4e12-aaa2-263a342c01ac" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Carlingford%20Central%20da%202.png?VersionId=UXFl9I0rBSHfNj7QX6ubCsZsPvKJiMxk" />

The development takes advantage of in-fill affordable housing incentives under the State Environmental Planning Policy (Housing) 2021, enabling a 30% uplift in height and floor space in exchange for dedicating at least 15 per cent of GFA to affordable rental housing managed by a registered community housing provider.

Carlingford Unit Trust is backed by Triple Eight Corporation, which owns the consolidated 6,331 sqm site. While the eastern edge of the site is earmarked for partial acquisition by Transport NSW for road widening, the project has been designed around the residual 5,765 sqm parcel.

New apartments in Carlingford have been in short supply. The only recent new development in the area is Blossom, just 41 apartments by Capio Property closer to the town centre.&nbsp;

Coogee

Sydney property developer Central Element has secured development approval for the restoration of Coogee's historic 1860’s landmark, Ballamac House.

Ballamac House, at 39 Arcadia Street, will be redeveloped into eight luxury apartments designed by&nbsp;Tonkin Zulaikha Greer (TZG), a long-standing partner of Central Element and expert in heritage projects. They've previously collaborated with Central Element on 25Hours Paddington and The Minerva Potts Point.

Nathan Chivas, Managing Director of Central Element, said Ballamac House&nbsp;has been a permanent fixture on Coogee’s north headland for over a century, so it was crucial to honour its great legacy and restore the property.

"We are thrilled to partner with TZG Architects and Jane Irwin Landscape&nbsp;Architecture to bring the 1860s icon back to its original excellence," Chivas said.

"The conservation of the original house will see us retain the external and internal walls, fireplaces, mantel pieces, and decorative ceilings, while reconstructing the wrap around verandah, as an ode the&nbsp;luxury of estate living."

Established by Charles Moore in 1860, the estate has lived many lives; as a private residence, hotel and infirmary. It has also been home to many prominent Australian figures and seen the likes of British Royalty roam its halls over the years.

Central Element’s vision of fusing old and new will bring the Ballamac House estate into a new era of luxury as it is transformed into eight oceanfront residences across two buildings.

The heritage Victorian house will undergo a restoration to reinstate it to its original grandeur. That will home two of the eight apartments, while the further six will sit in a new building to the east which will have ocean views.

The development occupies close to 1,500 sqm, with its eight residences spread out over four-stories that stand at almost 15 metres tall.

Each residence will enjoy the oceanfront location on Coogee’s northern headland, with uninterrupted views out to Wedding Cake Island.

The penthouse will feature extravagant interiors, configured to maximise its north facing aspect with panoramic views spanning past Gordons Bay to Wylie's Baths. All three bedrooms feature ensuites, with the master occupying the whole top level, with a study and flexible use second living room that can be shut off.

It will seamlessly open up to the wrap around entertaining terrace boasting the best view in the building. The 231 sqm residence will also feature its own internal lift, a second entertaining terrace on the first level, butler’s pantry, powder room and expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing ensuring the views are enjoyed from all the living areas. &nbsp;

Along with the conservation and restoration of the historic elements of Ballamac House, the property will receive an extensive landscaping makeover by award-winning Jane Irwin Landscape&nbsp;Architecture.

The landscaping vision is in response to the views and the heritage house, with all original sandstone utilised throughout the build so as to retain the buildings character, and only local native species selected where possible.

Future residents will also benefit from a communal outdoor area, complete with lush green gardens and a magnesium pool.&nbsp;

Construction on Ballamac House is expected to commence towards the end of 2023.

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=141700]

Ballamac House has stood proud on Coogee’s north headland for many years as one of the city’s most coveted addresses, having been converted to a strata title in the 1970’s.

Central Element green lit for Coogee's Ballamac House apartment redevelopment

Revised plans by&nbsp;Fender Katsalidis for the $111 million redevelopment of the Coogee Bay Hotel have been submitted.

The original plans to demolish significant parts of the hotel and build a new six-storey apartment building were met with significant opposition from both Randwick City Council and local residents.

The applicant took the matter to the Land &amp; Environment Court in November 2021, and since then, the case has been ongoing. However, on March 23, 2023, the LEC granted permission for the applicant to lodge amended plans.

<img alt="Render of the proposed Coogee development" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9bc29867-b60d-4ca4-bd3a-f9c5b0794472" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-04-03%20at%203.31.59%20pm.png?VersionId=4oVyhWm51qLJxDP.1oX5o4grAiZG7pOR" />

Under the new proposal, several existing buildings and structures on site will be demolished. However, the hotel and most of the Coogee Bay Road facade and beer garden will remain. The internal areas of the hotel will also be reconfigured, and 16 new and 15 refurbished rooms will be added.

To the west of the site a four and five-storey shop top residential building will be constructed, comprising 58 apartments, with seven one-bedroom, 25 two-bedroom and 24 three-bedroom apartments, in addition to two four-bedroom penthouses.

A new three-storey southern hotel wing, south of the beer garden, will be constructed, including 15 new hotel rooms. The existing beer garden area will also be upgraded, with the construction of new dining pavilions.

Additionally, 11 new retail tenancies, including cafes, shops, and restaurants, will be created in a ground-floor eat street precinct and Coogee Bay Road. A new public laneway will also be established, running from Coogee Bay Road to Arden Street, creating a through link.

<img alt="Render of the proposed Coogee development" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fc57fa6b-bca4-4457-a5e3-b2d9ee8cc018" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-04-03%20at%203.32.18%20pm.png?VersionId=XOQ0B5Nv2ZzR4PWvQwrnmrzunmftdLSI" />

Two levels of car parking will service the development, one at ground level and one basement carpark level, with around 159 spaces planned.&nbsp;

Currently, Randwick Council's external planning consultants are undertaking a detailed assessment of the amended plans, and community feedback will be carefully considered as part of the court proceedings.

Key amendments to the proposal:

<ul>
	<li>Building heights reduced from a maximum of 23.33m to 21.35m.</li>
	<li>Amendments to the building mass to retain view lines to key landforms including Wedding Cake Island, Dolphin Point and the northern headland of Coogee Beach.</li>
	<li>Reduction in basement excavation by two levels.</li>
	<li>Increased building setback to the southern boundary and accommodation of deep soil planting and additional communal open space.</li>
	<li>Removal of the ground level supermarket tenancy and provision of residential apartments to the street frontage of Vicar Street.</li>
	<li>Increased retention to four heritage building facades along Coogee Bay Road.</li>
	<li>Internal reconfiguration of pub building, hotel and all residential apartments.</li>
	<li>Inclusion of a three-storey building to the southern side of the beer garden. Provision of the car park entry from Arden Street only and removing the car park entrance from Vicar Street.</li>
	<li>Changes to the colour and materials used on the retail tenancies fronting Coogee Bay Road to respond to the character of this streetscape.</li>
</ul>

Under the new proposal, several existing buildings and structures on site will be demolished

Revised plans submitted for $111m Coogee Bay Hotel redevelopment

The landmark Coogee mansion, Ballamac House, is set to undergo a redevelopment into luxury apartments.

Sydney developer Central Element are seeking to transform the historic house, which has been flats for the last six decades. The building at 39 Arcadia Street, just 350 metres from the beach, will be restored and revived to its original glory, creating a collection of just eight apartments&nbsp;to be added to the east of the house.&nbsp;

The group’s vision of fusing old and new will bring the Ballamac House estate into a new era, with the restoration and new build designed by acclaimed architects, Tonkin Zulaikha Greer (TZG), who have collaborated with Central Element on a number of previous projects, including 25Hours Paddington and The Metro-Minerva Potts Point.&nbsp;

TZG’s Director, Tim Greer said their approach was to design both spectacular but also comfortable residences, which spoke to the site’s coastal location and embraced the natural elements of the surrounding environment.&nbsp;

“With Ballamac’s rich Coogee history and Central Element’s expertise, TZG Architects are making a new story. The things we chase in our stories as we craft them are timeless, rational and beautiful but the things that you remember are the small moments of wonder and delight that stay with you long after you have departed” Greer said.

All eight residences will feature three-bedrooms, with the rooftop and penthouse apartments to be split across two levels of living.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Two of the residences will sit within the original 1860’s house with the remaining six situated in the added apartment building, which will feature a communal outdoor entertaining area and garden.

Each of the residences will enjoy the locale of the waterfront location with uninterrupted views out to Wedding Cake Island.

The two apartments within the original house are set to be an ode to old-worldly living, with the retention of the external and internal walls of the original house, along with original fireplaces, mantel pieces, and decorative ceilings.&nbsp;

The residences will also see the reconstruction of the wrap-around verandah with the original rectangular cast iron columns, allowing for indoor to outdoor living.

The repair and conservation of the sandstone walls of the original house will be continued in the new apartment building, blending old and new.

There will be new landscaping by&nbsp;award-winning landscape architecture practice JILA, which will also see a communal plunge pool added.

Central Element’s Managing Director, Nathan Chivas said Ballamac House is a hallmark project for the group, designed to make a lasting impact on the celebrated beach lifestyle in one of Sydney’s most sought-after addresses.&nbsp;

“The legacy and famous history of the building will be preserved as we transform the former residence and add further luxury living spaces that will deliver an elevated lifestyle dimension to the landmark site,” he said.&nbsp;

Completion of the redevelopment is slated for 2024.&nbsp;

The building at 39 Arcadia Street, just 350 metres from the beach, will be restored and revived to its original glory

Central Element to redevelop Coogee's 1860’s Ballamac House into luxury apartments

The Sydney-based IPM has secured approval&nbsp;for their new Coogee project.

Randwick Council gave the green light to IPM to create a three-level, 20-apartment building at&nbsp;201-207 Carrington Road, halfway between Coogee Beach and Randwick.

The privately owned development and investment group will add to their already impressive portfolio which includes in excess of $2.5 billion worth of real estate projects.&nbsp;

There will be a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments in the block across the 2268 sqm site, which currently homes four single dwellings.

Paul Buljevic Design (PBD) designed the building, which will connect to its surrounding context through landscaping and&nbsp;a three-pod approach, allowing for full breaks between buildings, as well as giving relief to the bulk of the built form.&nbsp;

"The interplay of planes and introduction of finer vertical grains to the front facade breaks down the bulk further, along with creating a defined entry point to the building," the design statement read.

Each apartment is orientated toward the north, enhancing cross flow ventilation, solar access, and views.&nbsp;

"The design of the proposal responds to the current market demands, in relation to typologies and living patterns currently established in the local area, with apartments generously sized, following an open-plan layout, that maximises the use of the north-facing layout," the statement noted.

IPM has made themselves at home amongst the affluent suburbs over the years, with a portfolio featuring some of the most sought-after addresses.&nbsp;

Developing in some of Sydney's best beachside pockets, the group has taken up a number of projects from Sydney's east to as far north as Palm Beach.

Thoroughbred racing enthu­siast Victoria Samba is selling in Coogee.
It’s been a rental since Samba relocated to Melbourne.
It was most recently offered as a $1850-a-weeker last year, but is being offered with vacant possession through Jason Pantzer at Phillips Pantzer Donnelley for its September 26 auction.
Samba had paid $2.91 million in 2017 for the Dolphin St home when briefly moving from the Randwick home that she and then-husband, recruitment firm boss Mitch Hoare, sold for $3,575,000.

The Coogee home, on 220sqm, spans two levels ­designed to take advantage of its northerly aspect.
Thoroughly modern, the home has four bedrooms, a custom-fitted study, and an open-plan kitchen, living and dining area that spills on to a rear garden with built-in barbecue.

Samba, the daughter of the late Melbourne racing identity Les Samba, moved to the Mornington Peninsula late last year to live with her horse-veterinarian partner.

GWS midfielder Josh Kelly pulled his Coogee house from its auction yesterday.
The two-storey, three-bedroom house (pictured above) was listed due to “a change of circumstances.”
It was bought for $3.45m in April, but estate agent Alexander Phillips, of Phillips Pantzer Donnelley, struggled this month to find enough buyer interest, despite marketing the Division Street home with a reduced $3.2m guide.

The veteran film producer Glenys Rowe sold her longtime Coogee bolthole for a bullish $5.1 million at weekend auction.
Rowe produced the late 1980s cult film Dogs in Space, as well as God's Girls: Stories from an Australian Convent, Idiot Box and Feeling Sexy. 
There were 10 registered bidders who took the sale well past its $4.3 million reserve.
Auctioneer Damien Cooley took bids from half its interested parties.
She had bought the hillside Beach St property for $790,000 in 1994.
The four-bedroom home with ocean views has been an investment in recent years since Rowe has settled in Adelaide.
Ballard Property agent James Ball had an initial $4 million guide then raised this to $4.2 million, when they brought forward the auction by a week given the heightened level of buyer interest.
Realestate.com.au calculates Coogee’s median house price sits at $2.46 million, based on just 32 sales over the past year, according to realestate.com.au. 
Based on five years of sales, Coogee has seen a compound price growth rate of 6.7 percent for houses. Some years have seen 60 house sales.
