Indoor-outdoor
living at its best
THE very latest in indooroutdoor living is now on display
at Warner Lakes with the
opening of a new design from
one of Australia’s most notable
builders.
As the name suggests, the
Santorini 26 by Coral Homes is
designed to make anyone walking
through its doors feel welcome
and relaxed from the outset.
General manager Steve
Foley said the Santorini
achieved this by taking
advantage of the Australian
climate with a seamless style of
indoor-outdoor living, where
the outdoor living area formed
a natural extension of the large
open-plan kitchen, dining and
family area, a space people were
sure to call the heart of the
home.
“Apart from its obvious
indoor-outdoor appeal, the
240.31sq m Santorini 26 really
packs some punch with its
family friendly design features,”
he said.
“Like the master suite with a
view of the street, for instance,
or the three generous kids’
bedrooms positioned to the rear
of the home.
“A separate media room
allows family members to
retreat in comfort to relax and
enjoy a movie, or even to read a
book in relative quiet.
“And the cleverly positioned
study provides a space for
homework, or work at home if
necessary.”
The Santorini 26 is just one
of four new plans available in
the Santorini Series from Coral
Homes, which consists of
homes ranging from 189.69sq m
to 240.31sq m.
“Perhaps one of the most
attractive aspects of the
Santorini 26 plan on display at
Warner Lakes are the feature
options available to choose
from as part of Coral Homes’
Inspiration inclusions, such as
the Neo Modern kitchen,” Mr
Foley said.
“In the bathrooms, you’ll see
and experience Coral’s own
innovative Organic Elegance
theme.
“Inspiration inclusions also
has a range of other choice
items included such as ducted
airconditioning, resort alfresco
pack, floor coverings and
roofing options.”
The Santorini 26 is priced
from $169,600 with Designer
inclusions in the Brisbane, Gold
Coast and Sunshine Coast area.
The smallest home in the series,
the Santorini 20 starts from
$141,000.

Classy Carmelle
EFFORTLESS style, integrated
living zones and interior flair
make the Carmelle Series
unique family homes,
according to Plantation Homes
sales and marketing manager,
Brad Collins.
The carefully considered
design with central integrated
living allows the family to come
together for casual family meals
and entertainment, yet still
permits each member to enjoy
their own space, he said.
“An emphasis on
functionality is clearly reflected
in the large laundry and well
laid-out kitchen. The laundry
has room for the biggest piles of
washing and opens to the side of
the house for easy access to the
outdoors.
“Function and style
continues into the kitchen with
an impressive grand island
bench that doubles as a
breakfast bar and servery.
“Food and dishes can be kept
out of sight in the butler’s pantry,
which is easily accessed from the
garage for swift delivery of
groceries, while generous bench
space either side of the cooktop
makes preparing large dinners a
breeze.”
The floorplan also offers a
plethora of spacious living,
dining and leisure spaces, with
an emphasis on entertainment.
Indoor and outdoor dining
options include a covered
terrace area and three further
separate leisure areas including
a home theatre room, children’s
retreat and a living room.
The main bedroom at the
front of the house also doubles
as a parents’ retreat and boasts a
large dual walk-in wardrobe,
while three further bedrooms
are located at the other end of
the house, one with a walk-in
wardrobe, the others with builtin wardrobes.
Mr Collins said these
generously sized double
bedrooms each open out onto a
children’s retreat, perfect for
children to relax and play.
“And the well-proportioned
main bathroom with shower
and bathtub is positioned across
the hall from the powder room,
meaning more than one person
can use the facilities at the same
time,” he said.
“With a little something for
everyone, the Carmelle Series
offers functionality, comfort
and style all under one roof.”

Contemporary elegance
“THE time has arrived to enjoy
all the luxuries you’ve worked
so hard for; it is now your time
to live the ultimate lifestyle and
indulge your senses in a
gorgeous new home, custom
designed by McCarthy Homes.”
That is the view of McCarthy
Homes’ sales and marketing
manager David Farrar.
“The Brightwater is the piece
de resistance in the McCarthy
Homes Expressions series – a
truly magnificent family home
in all aspects, from its design
features, first-class fixtures and
fittings, aesthetic appeal and
livability; excruciating
attention to detail has ensured
that this home not only looks
sensational, but more
importantly is synchronised
perfectly with your lifestyle and
comfort,” he said.
“A double storey ecofriendly design, which sits
handsomely on any block size,
Brightwater is complete with
four bedrooms, two bathrooms
plus powder room on the
ground level, gourmet kitchen,
four separate living areas, study,
two alfresco entertaining areas
and double lockup garage.
“Upon entry there is an
overwhelming sense of light
and space, with clean, fresh
lines creating a welcoming and
calming ambience, which
continues throughout the
home.
“Downstairs, there is a
family room, separate
dining/lounge room, home
theatre, study, kitchen, laundry,
powder room and two
extremely private timber
alfresco entertaining areas.
“Upstairs is home to all four
bedrooms, and the master
bedroom is truly like something
from the pages of Vogue Living –
effortlessly chic, with a touch of
opulence.
“A children’s play
area or fourth living
assists to keep the
downstairs living areas
tidy and uncluttered, as
this is the perfect TV/toy
room, separate from the rest of
the home.
“Every room is a testament
to McCarthy Homes
commitment to quality and
style, from the dream kitchen,
complete with butler’s kitchen
and walk-in pantry, to the
stunning resort-style
bathrooms, and the gracious
living areas.
“Brightwater offers
unsurpassed lashings of
lavishness showcased in a
package that even the most
discerning of buyers will revel
in ... a home with everything
you’ve ever dreamt of, a home
you will never want to leave, a
home with soul and funk,
warmth and light.”

With a main suite positioned

living is achieved with a second
bedroom located close to the
main and linking to the
children’s living space. The
further bedrooms are at the
other end of the residence.
“This clever layout will
appeal for families with
younger children who will be

“With extra touches like

Lifestyle offering
JUST 25 minutes from the
Brisbane CBD, and an hour to
the magnificent Sunshine
Coast, Taigum Estates offers a
relaxed new lifestyle and the
ultimate in suburban
convenience, Ausbuild sales
and marketing director
Matthew Bell said.
Taigum Estates is the latest
residential estate to be released
by local developer, Ausbuild,
and stage one was officially
released last week to an eagerly
awaiting public.
“The first stage saw 31 blocks
released at a starting price of
$248,000,” Mr Bell said.
“Land sizes vary, but on
average sites are over 480sq m.
“Taigum Estates is all about
location.
“While surrounded by major
shops, sporting clubs, parks and
schools, this spacious new
estate is also close to two major
transport corridors - making it a
perfect choice if you need to
commute to the city on a
regular basis.
“Whether you’re a young
couple, a growing family, or
planning your retirement,
Taigum Estates has everything
you need close to home.
“We believe buyers will see
the convenient location of the
estate as the major drawcard.
“Within the immediate area,
you’ll find two local shopping
centres with Woolworths, Aldi,
Coles and a variety of other key
retail and service outlets.
“For some more
sophisticated retail therapy,
Westfield Chermside is just a 10
minute drive, or a 25 minute bus
ride away.
“For nature lovers, the famous
Boondall wetlands and natural
reserves are just a five-minute
drive from Taigum Estates.
“The reserve boasts a
number of large grassy areas, a
vast lake and several pleasant
picnic facilities that can be
enjoyed all year round.
“For those who love to see a
live show, Brisbane’s largest
entertainment complex, the
Brisbane Entertainment
Centre, is in your very own
neighbourhood.
“And it’s located just far
enough away that you’ll never
hear any noise, but close
enough that you can drive to see
your favourite performer in less
than 10 minutes.”

CLARENDON

(QUEENSLAND)
Kitchen headquarters
MODERN home design in
Australia focuses on open-plan
living, artfully creating different
spaces that flow into each other.
At the heart of this openplan lifestyle is the kitchen, the
scene for all kinds of action on a
daily basis and needs to perform
a variety of roles.
“It’s a cliche, but the heart of
the home really is the kitchen,”
Clarendon Homes’ colour
studio consultant Sue
McCarthy said.
“Our customers spend a lot
of time going through the
details of their kitchen design,
and it’s important that they do.
“Not only will the design of
the kitchen set the style for the
open-plan area of the home, but
it is also important to ensure
their kitchen works the way
they do, and is efficient for their
lifestyle.”
Being an important
centrepiece for a new home, the
design and detail of the kitchen
is important.
“Clarendon has different
inclusion levels for customers to
choose from when pricing up
their new home,” Mrs
McCarthy said.
“The different inclusion
levels change various
specifications and features
around the home.
“It’s important that families
consider the investment they
are making in their new home
to ensure their kitchen is at the
level they want it to be when
they move in.
“It’s not financially-wise to
go back and make changes or
upgrades later.”
Clarendon Homes allows
customers to upgrade the
kitchen included at their
chosen inclusion level with one
from a higher inclusion level.
“Clarendon Homes offers a
kitchen design consultation for
our customers when planning
their new homes,” Mrs
McCarthy said.
“They get to meet with
kitchen design experts and use
their experience to craft the
ultimate kitchen for their home.
“They always have the best
time going through the
beautiful benchtops, designer
tapware, latest appliances and
really making their new kitchen
a reflection of themselves.
“Working together here in
the Colour Studio, we create
some incredible designs that
deliver beautiful big homes that
our customers love to live in.”

Sultan said.
“The rear of the home offers
three bedrooms while the
master suite is positioned away
at the front of the home, acting
as a private haven.
“The larger floorplan
includes a rumpus room in the
rear sleeping wing which
functions as the kids’ very own
play zone.
“Plus, there are plenty of
features for added convenience
in day-to-day life, such as
complete, built-in storage to all
bedrooms including a walk-in
robe to the master bedroom as
well as a walk-in linen closet
and a partitioned toilet space in
the master ensuite for extra
privacy.”
On display at Landsdowne
Drive, Ormeau Ridge, the
Oakdale is a popular design
from a popular Queensland
family builder.
“Homebuyers can be
assured of a quality home with
generous inclusions as standard
when building with Burbank,”
Mr Sultan said.
“They can also be assured of
building an honest and
transparent building
experience with a team of local
Queenslanders who are
passionate about finding
homebuyers the right home to
suit them.”

Winners on display
A NUMBER of Brisbane and
Gold Coast Master Builders
Housing and Construction
Awards winners are on display
at Springfield Lakes – Master
Builders’ latest display village.
Grant Galvin, Master
Builders’ executive director,
said the standard seen since the
Housing and Construction
Awards program commenced
on July 4 had been incredible,
with the winning homes
demonstrating the impeccable
talent and expertise of
Queensland’s building and
construction industry.
“The Housing and
Construction Awards provide
an opportunity to recognise this
talent, and it is great that after
27 years, they continue to be
sought after by the state’s top
builders and tradespeople,” he
said.
The recently opened Master
Builders Display Village at
Springfield Lakes is home to
three award-winning builders
who picked up prizes at the
Brisbane and Gold Coast
Awards ceremonies –
Plantation Homes, Valeco
Homes and Stylemaster
Homes.
Plantation Homes took
home three awards, including
Brisbane Display Home
$376,000-$475,000 for their
home Trinity Lux Q1, Gold
Coast Display Home $276,000$375,000 for Manhattan Q1 and
Gold Coast Display Home
$376,000-$475,000, also for
Trinity Lux Q1.
Valeco Homes won the
Brisbane Display Home up to
$275,000 award for their
Fitzroy Display Village, while
Stylemaster Homes took home
the Brisbane Individual Home
$276,000-$375,000 for
Manhattan 260.
Mr Galvin said building a
home was possibly the biggest
financial decision people could
make.
“Choosing the right builder
is one of the first steps you can
make towards getting the
process right,” he said.
“Finding an award-winning
builder with homes on display is
a great way to choose a builder
for your next building project.”
Springfield Lakes, a joint
initiative by Master Builders
and Lend Lease, opened in June
featuring 23 homes by 17 Master
Builders’ members.

Ellison environment
SET over two levels, The
Ellison design from Ausbuild
offers four bedrooms, crisp
modern interiors, and plenty of
spaces where a busy family can
come together, or retreat for
some peace and quiet.
Ausbuild sales and
marketing director Matthew
Bell said with four bedrooms
and a huge entertaining and
kitchen area, the Ellison had an
abundance of space.
“Even from the street, The
Ellison makes an instant
impression - with its very sleek,
silver-toned facade,” Mr Bell
said.
“This impression continues
when you step inside - where
bright, light floor tiles and
window coverings contrast
beautifully with dark kitchen
cabinetry and shelving.
“Classic furnishings and
leather tones add a sense of
authenticity and warmth to this
inviting family home.
“With four generous
bedrooms, The Ellison offers
plenty of space and privacy for a
growing family. Inside each of
the bedrooms you’ll find a
spacious built-in wardrobe and for a touch of luxury, there’s
also a very spacious walk-in
robe in the master.
“The master suite has all the
space and sophistication of a
boutique hotel room - with an
enormous and sleek
ensuite, with a twin
vanity.
“With its lowmaintenance,
contemporary interiors and
open layout, The Ellison is a
dream home for entertaining.
“The contemporary kitchen
flows onto a meals area, and
then out onto the covered
alfresco entertaining area where you can make the most of
Queensland’s beautiful climate.
“Enthusiastic cooks will love
the sleek kitchen - which is
complete with CaeserStone
benchtops, and an island bench
that doubles as a handy
breakfast bar.
“The whole family will love
the plush, carpeted media
room, where you can enjoy all
your favourite TV, movies and
games, and popcorn, of course,
in surround-sound comfort.
“Importantly, The Ellison
also has your storage needs
covered - with a double-car
garage that has plenty of room
for boxes, tubs and sporting
gear.
“It also opens directly into
the main hallway.
“Plus, with a six-star energy
rating, and built according to
the latest sustainable design
principles, you can also be
confident that The Ellison will
be a sound investment, well into
the future.”

VALECO
HOMES
Prize honour
VALECO Homes was a winner
at the Master Builders Housing
& Construction Awards last
month.
It landed the top prize in the
category for Display Homes up
to $275,000 for the Fitzroy 254
in North Lakes, north of
Brisbane.
“The Fitzroy’s clever layout
offers seamless integration
between the home’s open-plan
living and dining core, and its
private yet enormous alfresco
area,” managing director
Andrew Hocking said.
“The kitchen, with its island
bench and open view, is part of
the integration, designed so the
cook is always at the heart of
the action.
“When it’s time to slow
down, step inside the media
room or retreat to one of the
home’s four generous
bedrooms.
Experience and trust
reap positive reward
CORAL Homes is one of
Queensland’s true success
stories, having built thousands
of new homes for Australian
families since beginning
operations as a humble
husband and wife team on the
Gold Coast in 1990.
Ever since the start, Coral
Homes’ aim was simple; to
provide affordable homes built to
a standard which they would
expect in their own home, and to
develop a good reputation based
on the trust of their clients,
suppliers and employees.
That aim developed into a
philosophy which has since
become the basis of Coral
Homes’ success to date.
In fact, Coral Homes has
since grown to become one of
the largest and most respected
home builders in Queensland,
and one of the top 10 largest
home builders in Australia, with
a building area and display
home network spanning from
Bundaberg to Sydney.
“With all the experience we
have gained over the years,
Coral Homes understands the
value of gaining the trust of
each and every one of our
clients,” general manager Steve
Foley said.
“As a demonstration of the
importance we place on
building a relationship of trust,
Coral Homes will issue each of
our clients a key to inspect the
progress of their new home
after the lockup stage of
construction. And as far as we
know, we are the only builder
who does this.”
Coral Homes has a large
range of plans catering to a
variety of home buyers, from
homes to suit narrow lots, to
larger family homes, acreage
homes and two-storey homes.
Coral Homes also has three
levels of inclusion with the
Designer package allowing
home buyers to build a new
home on a budget with prices
starting from $123,200 in the
Brisbane, Gold Coast and
Sunshine Coast areas.
At the other end of the scale
is Coral’s Inspiration inclusions
including four designer
kitchens and a choice of two
modern bathroom themes
along with a host of other
options such as ducted
airconditioning, roofing
options, floor covering options
and even staircase options for
two-storey homes.

“The master bedroom stands
apart from the rest, giving
parents the space they need.
“Understanding what is wanted
in house design in southeast
Queensland, with an emphasis on

Nurturing client is vital
McCARTHY Homes is an
Australian owned company
based in Brisbane and servicing
a build area that covers most of
southeast Queensland.
David Farrer, McCarthy
Homes sales and marketing
manager, said the company was
proud to offer a superior
product.
“The fact that we are not a
large volume builder means we
are transparent at all stages of
the process, from inception to
conclusion, and we nurture you,
our client, with the view to
establishing a long-term
relationship with our clients,”
he said.
“This outstanding level of
service and accessibility results
in a high volume of repeat and
referred business, which we can
reward through our referral
program.”
Mr Farrer said flexibility was
another point of difference for
McCarthy Homes with the
Expressions Series offering
people the chance to shape the
outcome of the design.
“We will work with you to
adjust the floorplan and
specifications so you get exactly
what you want,” he said.
“We work within the
parameters of your brief and
can create something truly
special, regardless of the
topography of the land.
“From narrow blocks to flat
estate blocks, steep blocks
through to acreage, we will
work with you to create the
perfect home of the highest
quality, to embrace and reflect
your lifestyle.”
The company also offers a
Blueprint Series with more
conventional designs, but with
the ability for clients to adjust
plans interactively online.

open space should be

Celebrate family life
METRICON’S design attitude
revolves around creating
simple, fresh homes that
celebrate the Australian
lifestyle, each and every day.
The Metricon story began in
1976 with a very simple design
philosophy: to not just build
houses, but to design stunning
homes that celebrate
Australian family life in all its
wonderful variety.
This simple idea was the
guiding principle that drove the
company founders to establish
Metricon and it’s still the
cornerstone of their design
philosophy today.
Metricon’s general manager
Jason Biasin said it was this
insightful curiosity that
continued to drive the design of
every home.
“We understand that as you
are planning your new home,
you’re looking for an innovative
yet practical home design for
your family’s needs and
aspirations, and we understand
that these needs can be
complex and evolving,” he said.
“That’s why we design
homes that grow and evolve
with your family as the years go
by.
“Our homes cover all
budgets and all styles of living,
but they’re all linked by a
common theme - bright, light-
filled spaces, great, practical
livability, and stylish
contemporary appeal.
“Our design philosophy
embraces practical flexibility
throughout interior spaces while
working with the design elements
of the exterior of the home.
“That’s why each of our 147plus new home designs feature
zoned living environments that
allow for both privacy and
interaction.
“We make sure it is easy to
close off areas for individual
privacy, or open everything up
when it’s time to entertain
family and friends. The choice is
yours.
“We design homes that are
adaptable, flexible and work
with your lifestyle. Homes that
truly answer the needs of the
modern family.”

Inspiration spot
WITH eight innovative and
beautiful homes on display, The
Meadows, Master Builders’
display village at Pimpama,
offers a range of ideas and
inspiration for any buyer.
Close to the Gold Coast, the
masterplanned development of
more than 1100 residential
allotments borders Pimpama
High School and the future
Coomera town centre, and is
also close to the M1 for
commuting to Brisbane and the
Gold Coast.
Pimpama is considered to be
one of the region’s next major
growth centres.
Paul Bidwell, Master
Builder’s deputy executive
director, said for people looking
to build their dream home, a
visit to the Master Builders’
display village was a unique
opportunity to see a variety of
design options in one place.
“The Meadows features
seven Master Builders’
members who have eight
homes on display,” he said.
“There is a mix of one and
two-storey homes from big
names in the business like
Newstart Homes, Planbuild
Homes and Stylemaster
Homes, right through to
boutique building companies
such as Bluewood Homes,
Choice Homes, Unique Homes
and Palladio Homes.
“The diverse range of
modern designs offers
something for most budgets
and there is a combination of
three, four and five-bedroom
options to choose from.”
Mr Bidwell said for people
looking for a home with clean,
contemporary lines and a modern
facade, The Meadows was the right
village to visit for ideas.
“Each week, hundreds of
Queenslanders visit Master
Builders’ display villages, which
showcase the latest housing
designs, trends and products,”
he said.
“If you’re in the market to
build a new home, add a visit to
a display village to your to-do
list this weekend.”
