From shed to chic - Holbrook
I've heard of some interesting renos but this one takes the cake. The Bull Shed is the centrepiece of this 68ha property in the NSW town of Holbrook on a site that was once the Kildrummie Hereford Stud, formerly part of the Carnegie cattle empire.
Guests will be blown away by the central living area that has been transformed from the shed which housed the stud bulls and stud selling complex. Today it's a relaxed central zone featuring hardwood timber columns and trusses supporting a soaring vaulted ceiling.
There are plenty of attractive features around the property including a heritage-style timber pool house and adjoining saltwater pool.
It is listed with David Gittoes and Reg Coulston of Elders Real Estate and is for sale by public tender.
Downsizer pad by the sea - Newcastle
Here's a downsizer apartment with a twist. Situated in the buzzy CBD of Newcastle, but also within walking distance of the art deco Newcastle Ocean Baths it has plenty of heritage character itself.
Set in the 1927 AMP Chambers, the building's original caretaker's apartment has been transformed into a two-bedroom home with an enormous rooftop private terrace.
Here you can take in views across the working harbour towards Nobbys and Port Stephens.
The property is listed with Michael Fook of Robinson Property.
Great Tassie escape - Falmouth
Luxury and leisure all come together in The Ocean Retreat in the Tasmanian east coast town of Falmouth.
The architecturally designed four-bedroom residence captures sweeping 180-degree ocean views and is an exercise in exceptional design.
It's the perfect place to enjoy yourself but when guests stay no one will be cramped. Each bedroom functions as its own retreat, complete with en suite and walk-in robe.
An open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is the perfect place to entertain with floor-to-ceiling windows providing dramatic coastal views.
It is listed with Tom Harrison of Harrison Agents with a price guide of "offers over $1.95 million".
Surf and style - Torquay
Aptly named Treetops, this architect-designed home on the Victorian Surf Coast has waves of style and sits seamlessly into its verdant landscape.
The five-bedroom, four-bathroom home was designed by Studio Kennon and gives inhabitants the feeling of living among the trees.
The north-facing property features an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, framed by curved glass planes which retract to open the home to the surrounding nature and coastal breeze.
Listed with Natural Real Estate, the Torquay property is for sale with a price guide of $4.1 million to $4.5 million.
Views for ever - Jamberoo
This is one place to relax, unwind and drink in the view. The four-bedroom, five-bathroom home in the NSW South Coast town of Jamberoo is set within rolling green hills and escarpment surrounds.
While the main living area, with large view-framing windows is undeniably an attraction, there is also a library situated on a mezzanine level along with a private art retreat, study and separate media room.
For those looking for a place to take on their next project there is also a workshop and double garage with electric vehicle charging and solar power.
It is listed for sale with Kristy Sequeira of Colliers Wollongong.
