Astoria Grand 45
If you’re looking for a show-stopping home that will adapt to your family’s needs over the years, your search ends here.
“Part of our Affinity Collection, the Astoria Grand 45 is generous in size and has four light-filled living spaces, giving your family plenty of room to spread out,” says D’Alesio.
Designed to suit 14 x 28m blocks, this double storey home is packed with impressive features, including four oversized bedrooms, each with an ensuite and built-in robe, a spectacular entertainer’s kitchen with a huge walk-in pantry, a private study, plus a built-in study nook for the kids.
“The feature staircase in the entry makes a beautiful backdrop to the study and formal lounge. Meanwhile, the activity/study zone is cleverly located at the front of the home, away from the busy parts of the house, which is great for the kids. And parents can enjoy an opulent master suite, located at the rear of the house, with a stunning ensuite, huge walk-in robe and private balcony,” he says.
To set a tone of classic sophistication from outside the front door, the design team has chosen the Newport Hebel facade, with its swathes of smooth render on the lower level and weatherboard panelling on the upper level, decorative trims, panelled windows and a generous front porch.
As for the interior, Hodges has given the Astoria Grand 45 display home a sophisticated, Parisian feel, mixing traditional features with contemporary design elements. “Set against a classical base of chevron timber flooring, panelled joinery and feature wall mouldings, we’ve added modern furniture with curved lines and touches of marble, brass and pewter.
“Rich fabrics, such as velvet, silk, linen and leather, on the upholstery, scatter cushions and window treatments add to the elegant feel,” she says.

Portland Grand Pantry 27
The great-value Portland Grand Pantry 27 , which is part of Carlisle’s Inspire collection of homes, offers flexible living spaces and fantastic features at an unbelievable price. “This is a good, honest single storey floor plan, aimed at first home buyers, families and downsizers,” says D’Alesio.
Tailored for 14 x 32m blocks, this smartly designed four-bedroom home offers a stack of incredible features for the price. These include a designer kitchen with a full butler’s pantry with loads of storage and prep space, two large living areas, and three oversized secondary bedrooms with a walk-in robe each that are thoughtfully zoned in their own wing with a private hallway and built-in study nook.
“The rear of the home, where the open-plan kitchen, living and meals are located, has a wonderful feeling of space, and connects seamlessly to the entertainer’s terrace and backyard,” he says.
The master suite is at the front of the house – away from the busy living spaces so you can enjoy complete peace and quiet – and features a walk-in robe and a gorgeous ensuite with a double vanity.
To set a tone of relaxed charm from the moment you pull up, the design team has chosen the Matrix Hebel facade, which combines layers of render with classic weatherboard panelling, oversized windows, and a simple and stylish roofline.
The bright, light and welcoming feel of the home has been completed with gentle neutral tones and warm oak. “Muted tones of white and off-white on the walls and soft furnishings, simple oak furniture, comfortable seating, and accents of chocolate and terracotta make this home feel instantly relaxing,” says Hodges.
“There’s an abundance of texture throughout, from boucle-covered seating to linen-covered sofas –which beautifully complements the polished porcelain floor tiles on the lower level. It’s a very easy and welcoming space to be in – buyers are sure to love it,” she says.
