Every luxe detail has been carefully refined in this new three-storey house. Star billing goes to the sunny family room that connects to a covered terrace and garden with a pool.

530 Tucks Road, Shoreham

Tucked between Red Hill village and the coast, this pretty getaway has a peaceful air. The family room overlooks the garden, and the kitchen’s servery window opens to a covered patio with a pizza oven while the dining space connects to a poolside deck. On about two hectares, it has a cubby house ready for play dates.

42 Elm Grove, Richmond

The Edwardian character of this corner-site brick house shines through its restoration, and a calming ambience flows to the modern two-storey extension, the agent says. The two-year renovation passion project by Sharpe Construction Group is design-led with curves, scallops and fluting. For joyful living, there’s a plunge pool, a premium kitchen and a tree-top balcony accessible from all three upstairs bedrooms.

2/7 Kara Grove, Aspendale

This apartment’s absolute beachfront inspires the imagination of uncompromising buyers and passive buyers who suddenly realise it’s their must-have. The ground-floor home by Lowe has a 20-metre frontage to coastal shrubbery and the bay, seen from the terrace, living zone and main bedroom. “It’s at the end of a coastal lane,” the agent says. “It has privacy, exclusivity and basement parking.”

147 Clarke Street, Northcote

Vintage and vantage are in this blond-brick beauty’s cool mid-century vibe and the amazing city views from its sunset deck. “It’s very Northcote, very charming – like stepping back in time,” the agent says, describing the Ruckers Hill locale as “gold”. Cherry-red Laminex kitchen benchtops, a slate-clad fireplace and original hardwood floors deliver character that could anchor a dream-home renovation.

2/101 Rostrevor Parade, Mont Albert North

Natural, neutral tones and materials contribute to the earthy feel and universal appeal of this Cera Stribley-designed townhouse enjoying northern light, the agent says. “Modern, fresh, security and privacy are what it offers,” he says. Five of the development’s seven were sold off the plan, confirming that young families and downsizers are in the buyer pool. A lift services its three levels.

602/166 Flinders Street, Melbourne

“It feels New York, or maybe Prague,” says the agent smitten with this two-level pad atop the elegant art-deco-era Masonic Club Building with Flinders Street cachet. “Its balcony views encapsulate every iconic Melbourne landmark – Flinders Street station, the ’G, Fed Square opposite and the Forum next door.” The chic apartment has new glazing of “the highest standard for thermal insulation and soundproofing”.

2/14 Normanby Street, Brighton

Seriously swish in concept and finish, this Jon Friedrich design is a masterclass in catering to the affluent Brighton downsizer market. The 2023-built residence, one of only three, is on a single level above the media room (or third bedroom) and oversized garage “for your car collection”, the agent says. Luxuriate in surrounds of marble and blackbutt while benefitting from security, sustainability, and cutting-edge tech inclusions.
