<p><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/caulfield-north-vic-3161">Caulfield North</a> isn’t short on prestige, but it is short on boutique new apartment developments with spacious floorplans.</p>

<p>Cue LUMA, the newest development by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/skylife-group-pty-ltd">Skylife Group</a>, which offers just nine apartments on Hawthorn Road.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/luma-caulfield-north-226-hawthorn-road-caulfield-north-vic-3161">LUMA</a> occupies a coveted position near Caulfield Park, encircled by Melbourne's finest schools, parks, and culinary destinations.

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=148933 project_image_fid=335511]</p>

<p>The interiors are unified by a calm, light-infused aesthetic. Organic white walls, soft walnut timber joinery, and Aurora Range European Oak flooring are paired with plush carpeted bedrooms, creating a harmonious tactile experience.</p>

<p>The kitchens at LUMA serve both as culinary workspaces and statement design features. Buyers can choose between a lightGlacier Honed or dark Turko Argento natural stone benchtop, with timber-look Polytec Ravine joinery and fluted glass cabinetry providing contrast.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Miele appliances complete the package, tailored to residence size, with premium upgrades for three-bedroom homes including an 80cm induction cooktop and Gen 7000 speed oven.</p>

<p>Bathrooms echo the same sensibility, with natural stone, black EXON fixtures, and frameless glass showers. Select residences offer freestanding baths.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Sekisui House Australia's first apartment development in Sydney's Lower North Shore has been a hit with prospective new home buyers.</p>

<p>They recently released <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/waterstone-st-leonards-24-berry-road-st-leonards-nsw-2065">Waterstone</a>, on the fringe of Newlands Park in the emerging St Leonards South precinct, a short walk from the Crows Nest Metro and the heart of St Leonards.</p>

<p>The new development will home&nbsp;207 apartments across five mid-rise buildings, rising between four to nine storeys.</p>

<p>We recently visited the display suite at&nbsp;60 Pacific Highway, St Leonards, to find out more about the development that has been one of the most enquired on developments on Apartments.com.au in the last few months.</p>

<p><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/rO1K7t6GOgY?si=pwmYyqjNBBzjMNeb" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe></p>

<p>Watersone sales agent Paul Marrum says the orientation of the building was key to Sekisui's wider design philosophy.</p>

<p>“Waterstone has been orientated to face south, capturing views over Newland’s Park and back to the Sydney CBD," Marrum says.</p>

<p>"This deliberate positioning, alongside 30 per cent of the site dedicated to open space designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/aspect-studios">Aspect Studios</a>, roots the project in the developer’s Satoyama philosophy - prioritising balance between the built environment and its surrounding ecosystem."</p>

<p>On offer are a mix of one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom apartments, with many including&nbsp;multi-purpose rooms to accommodate shifting lifestyle needs, from work-from-home professionals to growing families and downsizers.&nbsp;</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=134191 project_image_fid=234]</p>

<p>“Every apartment is open plan, with interiors flowing to balconies or courtyards," Marrum adds.</p>

<p>"The material palette reinforces this flow: soft-toned tactile stone, fluted glass cabinetry, and warm timber joinery work together to create what he describes as a “refined but relaxed atmosphere.”</p>

<p>There’s a distinct human scale to Waterstone’s design. The community is shaped as a network of boutique buildings threaded by a ‘green spine’, a landscape feature that invites movement, reflection, and connection.</p>

<p>Marrum highlights the presence of sensory gardens and native planting throughout, signalling an approach that enhances both wellness and biodiversity.&nbsp;Yet Waterstone doesn’t forgo amenity for serenity however. Residents will have access to a heated outdoor pool and spa, infrared sauna, co-working lounge, fully equipped gym, and even dedicated resident workspaces.&nbsp;</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=134191 project_image_fid=231]</p>

<p>Waterstone will rise from a prime Berry Road site ideally located near the green Newlands Park but also a short walk to the hear of both St Leonards and Crows Nest, two transport nodes with bus, train, and Sydney Metro lines connecting to the rest of Sydney.</p>

<p>Construction is slated to begin in mid-2025, with completion targeted for late 2027.&nbsp;</p>

<p><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/beulah">Beulah</a>&nbsp;has unveiled its latest release of exclusive homes in its sustainable Brunswick townhouse development, Brunswick Established.</p>

<p>The collection, known as ‘The Courtyard House’, has been created in collaboration with Six Degrees Architects to meet the evolving needs of modern families.&nbsp;</p>

<p>With a central courtyard at its heart, the design reimagines the possibilities of multi-generational living, blending flexibility, sustainability and personalisation within a heritage setting. Distinct from a traditional garden, the courtyard delivers natural light, fresh air and a generous sense of space, without the upkeep of a backyard.</p>

<p>Comprised of 23 two-storey townhouses, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/brunswick-established-23-hodgson-st-brunswick-vic-3056">Brunswick Established</a> offers multiple typologies of townhomes to suit different living requirements, allowing residents to grow in place - majority include ground-floor bedrooms for accessibility, while others, known as the ‘The Courtyard House’, provide a unique, flexible detached space separated by a courtyard.</p>

<p>Responsible for both the architecture and interior design, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/six-degrees-architects">Six Degrees</a>’ holistic approach enabled the team to ensure an intrinsic link between the design outcomes; a seamless, harmonious flow from the outside to within.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=136451 project_image_fid=275571]</p>

<p>“The modern home should flow from inside to outside - the courtyard provides a space which joins the different parts of the home together as the central outside space of the home,” explains Six Degrees Director, Peter Malatt.</p>

<p>“The courtyard is a model used since ancient times, transforming the home from an object within a space to an object enclosing space. It acts as both the visual and social heart of the home, a space to gather, reflect, or simply pause, offering a moment of calm within a busy urban context."</p>

<p>“Courtyards also offer a deeply cultural and emotional resonance, with their timeless presence across human history. They connect us to the past, while shaping how we live today</p>

<p>Malatt says the courtyard also operates as a micro-climate, which can retain heat in winter and be a shaded haven in summer.</p>

<p>"The ability to take warmed or cooled air into the home from the courtyard space is a great way to improve internal health and minimise energy use through heating and cooling. In a compact urban environment like Brunswick, courtyards are also a clever solution - bringing light, greenery and nature into denser living formats while maintaining a strong sense of privacy and connection."</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=136451 project_image_fid=270371]</p>

<p>This concept resonated strongly with early downsizers who recently purchased one of the Courtyard homes at Brunswick Established for themselves and their two adult sons, aged 21 and 24.</p>

<p>“We’re excited to have a home that gives us flexibility as our lives evolve, whether it’s our sons living with us as they finish university, or us being able to lock up and travel. Having separate spaces connected by the courtyard is perfect for our family dynamic, especially as we value our independence but also want to stay close,” they shared.</p>

<p>The couple, who also share their home with two dogs and two cats, highlighted the benefits of multi-generational living in a courtyard home.</p>

<p>“Our sons help care for the pets, we enjoy cooking and spending time together, and the courtyard means we have light, greenery, and privacy all in one. We love that Brunswick Established has thought about sustainability and customisation in such a detailed way, it’s rare to find that in a project.”</p>

<p>Beulah’s approach to design customisation at Brunswick Established, allowing residents to adapt layouts to their lifestyle, has been a major drawcard for buyers seeking homes that evolve alongside them. The detached living space offers flexibility to suit changing needs, whether as a studio, guest retreat, or home office, while maintaining a close link to the main residence, allowing family members to come together or enjoy privacy when needed.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=136451 project_image_fid=275570]</p>

<p>Malatt added that the&nbsp;homes have been designed for residents’ well-being, allowing couples and families to ‘grow’ in their own homes while ensuring they meet their needs for generations to come.</p>

<p>"Purchasers usually experience multiple lifestyle stages within one home, and we’re looking forward to seeing these unique homes come to life."</p>

<p>As part of this forward-thinking approach, Beulah will also host an exclusive event, The Property Market Decanted, on Wednesday 27 August at The Commons Café &amp; Cocktail Bar, Melbourne. The evening will feature insights from leading property and finance experts on Melbourne’s market outlook and long-term wealth creation strategies, particularly for multi-generational households.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Hampton's High Street offers the best of both worlds; halfway between Hampton Beach and Hampton Station, with a myriad of cafes and shops on its doorstep.</p>

<p>It was this unbeatable combination of convenience and connectivity that attracted Nash Project Management to secure a prime site on the corner of Hampton and Holyrood Streets several years ago.</p>

<p>The result is <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/holyrood-hampton-451-461-hampton-street-hampton-vic-3188">Holyrood &amp; Hampton</a>, a newly completed residential development comprising 59 premium apartments set above a full-line Coles supermarket, enhancing the day-to-day ease for residents.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=4629 project_image_fid=1530]</p>

<p>Those who have already moved into Holyrood &amp; Hampton have highlighted several standout features of their new home, with the location topping the list.</p>

<p>Hampton Station on the Sandringham line (Zone 2), is just down Hampton Street, offering regular services to Flinders Street Station. Multiple bus routes connect to Southland, St Kilda, and Berwick, while scenic cycling paths along the bay provide a relaxing alternative for commuters and weekend riders.</p>

<p>A short walk west leads to Picnic Point and Hampton Beach, beloved for its clean sand and family- and dog-friendly spaces. Ferdinando Gardens, near the pier, is perfect for picnics, while coastal walking trails offer peaceful views and breezes.</p>

<p>The surrounding green spaces—Castlefield Reserve, Triangle Gardens, and Hampton High Reserve—offer playgrounds, sports fields, and a sense of calm. Golfers have several options nearby, including Brighton Public Golf Course just a short drive away.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=4629 project_image_fid=1528]</p>

<p>Hampton Street remains the heart of the community, with more than 50 fashion boutiques, cafés, and eateries. A Woolworths anchors the retail strip, while independent shops help maintain its village charm.</p>

<p>Health and community services are easily accessible, with local GPs, dental clinics, and the nearby Sandringham Community Hospital, supported by larger hospitals in Brighton and Cheltenham.</p>

<p>Families are well catered to, with top private and public schools within a 1–2 km radius. These include Haileybury College, St Leonards College, Firbank Grammar, Brighton Grammar, Hampton Primary, and Brighton Secondary College.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=4629 project_image_fid=1532]</p>

<p>The apartments have been designed for longevity, with spacious, home-like layouts. Many include butler’s pantries, oversized kitchen islands, and quality finishes.</p>

<p>Additional features such as a rooftop terrace, EV charging, secure storage, and direct supermarket access support a highly functional and low-maintenance lifestyle.</p>

<p>Designed by Telha Clarke, Holyrood &amp; Hampton reflects how people want to live today—connected, walkable, and move-in ready.</p>

<p><span>Property website onthehouse.com.au is set to be shut down April after its board ended negotiations with realestateVIEW just before contracts were due to be signed. </span></p>
<p><span>Onthehouse had pursued a joint venture with realestateVIEW.com.au which they said had more value than a Macquarie Group-led takeover bid that was rejected in January this year. </span></p>
<p><span>"I was extremely surprised they had changed their mind and I'm disappointed we've wasted the last two months of due diligence and expenses," realestateVIEW managing director Enzo Raimondo told The Australian Financial Review. </span></p>
<p><span>"In the absence of a sale agreement for the Onthehouse.com.au and media businesses, they will be closed by April 2016 at an estimated closure cost of circa $1.7 million," the ontheouse company said in a statement to the ASX. </span></p>
<p><span>No white knight has emerged, but industry players could be interested at a distressed sale price.</span></p>
<p><span>The website's assets will be written down to zero resulting in an impairment charge of $3.2 million. Residex will be retained in the envisaged restructure, forecast to deliver revenues of more than $2 million in FY16 and to operate at a break even position going forward.</span></p>
<p><span>In the absence of a sale agreement for the Onthehouse.com.au and media businesses, they will be closed by April 2016 at an estimated closure cost of circa $1.7 million. </span></p>
<p><span>"Now we need to focus on our software business and invest in it to create new opportunities around revenue and market share," chief executive Chris Meehan said. </span></p>
<p><span>"You can't continue to invest in something that is consuming $4 million in cash."</span></p>
<p><span>The real estate software business group's first-half revenue fell  3 per cent to $12.7 million from $13 million a year earlier. "The rebuild of the Console SaaS platform is an important element of RES’s overall strategy to increase its share of the real estate software market and develop new revenue opportunities through third party integrations," it advised.</span></p>
<p><span>Onthehouse was in advanced negotiations to form a joint venture that would combine the company’s consumer-centric portal (onthehouse.com.au) with real estate industry owned portal (realestateview.com.au.</span></p>
<p><span>It claimed the joint venture would create a significant third tier competitor in the Australian real estate portal market, with greater scale across both consumer audience and revenue, and is expected to be immediately profitable.</span></p>
<p><span>Chris Meehan anticipated the new business would have well over two million unique browsers per month, and around 75% of sale and rental listings.</span></p>
<p><span>"This joint venture would be a natural evolution for Onthehouse’s Consumer Online division.</span></p>
<p><span>Enzo Raimondo, RealestateVIEW’s managing director, said Onthehouse.com.au provided a strong strategic fit with RealestateVIEW.</span></p>
<p><span>It was last June when Onthehouse Holdings announced it was looking for a joint venture partner to assumed majority ownership of its consumer online division, the platform providing free access to property sale prices and estimated home values on most properties in Australia.</span></p>
<p><span>A strategic review of the company following months of internal company turmoil had resolved to keep and concentrate on its real estate solutions division that provides software tools for real estate agents, other property professionals and financial institutions through Console and Real Estate Ad Network. </span></p>
<p><span>It conclusions reached by the board have been touted as avoiding the need to raise capital and dilute the current shareholding, or obtain debt funding.</span></p>
<p><span>The board told shareholders the business had "significant intrinsic value that is not currently recognised by the market."</span></p>
<p><span>Its COD was set to be developed in a non-listed JV vehicle in which OTH Holdings would maintain an interest, of between 30% and 49%.</span></p>
<p><span>The board anticipated JV partners could be one or several of the following:</span></p>
<ol>
<li><span>Like businesses that can add experience, technology or other industry assets etc. to the venture; and/or,</span></li>
<li><span>Venture capital investors or other funders.</span></li>
</ol>
<p><span>"The board believes significant value can be created in this structure without the responsibility of funding the COD business.</span></p>
<p><span>"The search for appropriate JV partners has commenced and OTH is currently in discussion with a number of parties," chairman Tony Scotton told shareholders mid last year.</span></p>
<p><span>The board expected that the separation strategy would take six months to execute. </span></p>

<p><span>Boonoorong on 20 hectares outside Flinders has been listed with $1.7 million plus hopes.</span></p>
<p>It was built in <a href="https://kayburton.com.au/properties/view/307326-25-eastern-grey-rise-flinders-3929-sale" target="_blank">2003 as a holiday house</a> by owners Grant Murray and Janet Truscott who had backgrounds in engineering and science.</p>
<p><span>Energy efficiency was the priority when commissioning the build.</span></p>
<p><span>Kay &amp; Burton agents Meg Pell has the listing, a Sunpower Design energy-efficient property.</span></p>
<p><span>The couple told <em>Fairfax Media</em> the solar-passive efficiency of the home meant very little energy was needed to warm the home in winter, and cool sea breezes blow from the coast to cool the home in summer.</span></p>
<p><span>They estimated the return on investment for the photovoltaic system (which converts solar energy to electricity) to break even after 30 years.</span></p>
<p><span>But with the demand for energy efficient materials, they now estimate less than 10 years. </span></p>

<div>Acclaimed architect Virginia Kerridge has listed her own South Coogee home having bought nearby. The house with apartment was completed in 2011 after a six year build by Andre Fombertaux in the beachside suburb. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>After paying $1.2 million in 2004, Virginia Kerridge gradually transformed her 1930s duplex into a pair of contemporary dwellings cocooned in a warm, textural palette of blackbean timber, polished concrete and raw fibre-cement.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It all sits within gardens designed by landscape architect Jane Irwin cultivated by John Dimitric over the past decade.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>"The Kerridge House + Apartment represents an important chapter in the life of an intuitive Australian architect," says Marcus Lloyd-Jones, the listing agent from Modern House. </div>
<div>There's even a small piece of Kerridge history – the coach rail from her breakthrough 1995 Taylor Square warehouse project, repurposed as a handrail at the <a href="https://www.modernhouse.co/listings/kerridge-house-apartment/" target="_blank">243 Rainbow Street property</a>.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>
<div>The 1995 Taylor Square, Darlinghurst project saw her secure a merit recommendation in the state's major architectural awards conducted by the Institute of Architects. An earlier project was the tiny Potts Point eatery, La Buvette.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>There was also a late 1980s block of four apartments overlooking Fairy Bower at Manly. But mostly deluxe domestic commissions since Kerridge, who graduated from university in 1984.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>By the late 1990s Virginia Kerridge's works prompted the editor of Architecture Australia, Davina Jackson, to describe her as "the leading woman private practitioner in Sydney."</div>
<div> </div>
<div>She has since been regularly recognised in awards including as inaugural winner of the Houses Awards 2011 Australian House of the Year. Her clients have included broadcaster Merrick Watts in the inner west and at Kingscliff on the far north coast for Harvey Norman managing director Katie Page.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Photos of her South Coogee house by professional photographer Michael Nicholson have been posted this week to go with the <a href="https://realestate.com.au/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #1155cc;">realestate.com.au</span></a> marketing campaign.</div>
