REAL ESTATE AGENT INDEX

It seems to be the one thing we’re all striving towards. Th at constant battle to keep the work-lifestyle seesaw in balance. If one outweighs the other and tilts too far to one side, there’s always an inevitable negative reaction, whether it be lack of income due to too much relaxation, or too much work and not enough play. And it seems we’re forever trying to make life that bit easier, and for most of us, it starts at home. As our cover story on page 6 shows, more people are choosing to trade in a suit, briefcase and corner offi ce with a view, for a home offi ce. As you fl ick through the vast listings of properties for sale in this issue of MPR, you’ll notice a surging number of homes featuring professional offi ces. In fact, some of the Coast’s most successful businesses are run from the humble family home. Aft er all, where else can you host a business call while wearing your ugg boots or laying by the pool? Emerging trend for the better or professional faux pas? I’d like to think it’s the former.

as much time as possible in them. And the outdoors appeal of the Coast, from the beaches to the hinterland, is partly why half a million residents are expected to call the Coast home by 2036.

“We’ve seen the change,” says Jean. “Working people in Brisbane or from down south used to

have their weekenders here. Now they want their main home on the Sunshine Coast and a smaller unit near their workplace for when they have to drive or fl y down. Th ey’re buying properties here, taking advantage of all the communications

technology and setting up their home to work remotely.”Locals are also enjoying the benefi ts of working from

home even part-time, whether it’s a tradie doing quotes or an executive trading online. And of course creating an offi ce space at home is vital for students, from primary schoolers to mature-age tertiary scholars.

“It’s something many people look for when purchasing a house,” says Jean. “And when people are building or renovating, they should give thought to it. Every home has a computer these days and most people need a quiet space. Even if a buyer isn’t running a full-time business from home, they’ll want to work on private accounts or property portfolios or shares.”

Jean says her adult daughter conducted a computer training business from a bedroom until she decided to build in downstairs on a sloping block to create an offi ce with side access, built-in bookshelves and a sitting area. She knows of a couple doing e-marketing from Kawana Island while they look aft er their young children and a palatial house at Buderim with a separate garden studio for its art professional owner. “Some style of offi ce is

More and more Sunshine Coast residents are discovering the lifestyle benefi ts of working from home. Julie Gatehouse investigates the impact that this work-from-home trend is having on our local real estate market and housing industry.

by Julie Gatehouse

An accountant extends his house to create an offi ce with side access for customers. An offi ce employee negotiates to work over the internet three days a

week from his renovated spare bedroom. A personal trainer sets up a gym under her home to take clients through their paces. A mum of two runs a child-care business in her converted downstairs rooms.

None of these people has the overheads, travel or inconvenience of operating from a commercial building. Instead they have the fl exibility of balancing lifestyle and work, whether it’s caring for family or taking a break from work when the sun’s shining and the surf ’s up.

Working from home is not for everyone, with potential problems ranging from diffi culty in eff ectively managing time to feeling isolated from the workplace. But it’s a growing trend, says real estate agent Jean Hamer, who also heads the Sunshine Coast zone of the Real Estate Institute of Queensland.

As the trend continues for home owners to upgrade their living environments for tailor-made comfort and functionality, it’s no surprise that they want to spend

The most popular home offi ces I’ve seen have separate entrances. So if you’re going to add an offi ce

in your home for capital gain, it’s wise to consider this

“ “Business class

nearly an essential part of modern homes,” Jean says.It’s almost impossible to describe a typical Coast

home offi ce – they can range from a cleverly hidden study nook or converted bedroom to a major extension.

Steve Morcombe, who owns Morcraft Homes, says some project homes have standard offi ces, but people can also customise with a multi-purpose extra room early in the design. “If they have their own business or work from home, they want a room that can be shut off from the rest of the house. Some use open louvres, shutters or bi-fold doors. Th ey install storage cupboards and shelving.”

He says a business couple who were repeat customers of his decided to incorporate a study into a new home because “they didn’t want to be at the offi ce at night, still shuffl ing paperwork”. However, they also included a pull-out divan so the room could double as accommodation for guests.

“It’s pretty common for people to want that fl exibility,” Steve says, adding that some bigger families building houses over the half-million-dollar mark are adding a fi ft h room as a dedicated offi ce.

Steve says there’s been an evolution in housing since he started building on the Coast in 1995. “A fourth bedroom is no longer a luxury; it’s expected even on smaller blocks. And there’s much more focus on a higher standard of materials, such as fi ttings and fi xtures, to create certain looks and style.”

Every home has a computer these days and most people need a quiet space. Even if a buyer isn’t running a business from home, they’ll want

to work on private accounts

“ “

Pat Assaillit, general manager of Dwyer Quality Homes, says some customers use cabinetmakers to ensure consistency throughout the entire house, from manufacturing the desks, shelving and drawer units in an offi ce to building the cupboards and benches in a kitchen. Others buy ready-made desks and fi ling cabinets.

Pat says many of Dwyer’s new house plans have a fourth room/study towards the front door for easier

access for potential business clients. Th at’s even in designs for fi rst-home buyers and narrow blocks on new estates.

Agents say the size, quality and location of home offi ces are factors considered by many buyers. While their diversity means it’s diffi cult to name a dollar value for resale, home offi ces not only contribute to the overall quality of a home, they also off er increased facilities and a competitive edge in marketing. Go Gecko Property Sales has numerous such listings at various locations

on the Coast. Principal Shane Strong says buyers appreciate the option.

“In this day and age, most careers can be done remotely,” he says. “Th e most popular offi ces I’ve seen have separate entrances. Five diff erent groups have asked us about that in the last month. So if you’re going to add an offi ce for capital gain, it’s wise to consider this. Other buyers just want computer rooms for their own work and for the kids.”

Shane adds that most houses over $500,000 would be expected to have three or four bedrooms plus an offi ce or study.

Carola Cauchi-Gera, the co-principal of KBR at Kings Beach, says connectivity should not be overlooked as a resale tool in conjunction with a home offi ce. “To do business over the internet you don’t need a specifi c physical address, but you need things like broadband,” she says.

She’s had positive buyer feedback about “fl ash offi ces with nice partitions” while others simply seek a computer space that’s not part of the lounge. Privacy can be paramount.

Carola also advises that people who want to conduct business at home should consult the Sunshine Coast Regional Council about the regulations for home-based businesses.

It pays to keep in mind the council still has three diff erent planning schemes for Noosa, Maroochy and Caloundra. For example, both Caloundra and Maroochy’s home-based business codes limit the fl oor space to 50 square metres but the hours of permitted operation diff er (one’s 8am to 6pm and the other is 7am to 7pm). Th ere are also rules about the number of clients allowed, traffi c movement and parking, waste services and visual amenity.

However, manager of planning assessment Michael Bismire says a new scheme will standardise the rules. “Th e general idea is to allow someone to operate a business from home providing it doesn’t impact on the amenity expected in a residential area, particularly noise and traffi c,” Michael says. Otherwise, the business might better suit a commercial or industrial zone.

He says anyone unsure if their home business meets the criteria for self-assessable development should check the council website and contact offi cers to fi nd out. Go to www.sunshinecoast.qld.gov.au and click on ‘building’ then ‘planning schemes’.

Many an excited home buyer has gone to sign on the dotted line only to fi nd an easement or two noted on the contract of sale. An easement is the right for a third party to use your property in a particular way without taking anything from it. Easements can include a road for your neighbours to use or rights of way granted to council or local authorities. If this will be a problem for you – and easements can aff ect the resale value of your home – make sure you fi nd out before making an off er on the property.

When you fell in love with the property on the fi rst inspection, the home seemed to be located in such a quiet little street. But drive by on a Monday morning or Th ursday aft ernoon and you might discover that the home is aff ected by peak hour or other traffi c noise. And if the property is close to a busy park or popular beach, it may be overrun on the weekends. Be sure to inspect the home – or at least drive by – at various times throughout the week to make sure that cul-de-sac really is as quiet as the brochures say.

If you have just signed a two-year plan with your mobile phone provider you might be pretty annoyed to fi nd that you have no coverage in your home. Many people rely solely on their mobiles and don’t have home phones, so if you are one of these, be sure your new home isn’t located in a mobile phone black spot.

If you love to walk but there are no footpaths in the neighbourhood, if you hate getting in the car for a carton of milk but the nearest shop is three kilometres away, or if you have an active pet but the parks are unappealing, it’s best to ask if this really is the home for you. Some people love the space and peace that comes with being far from the madding crowd, but if convenience is your thing, be sure the amenities are close by.

You may not have kids now, but if you plan to live in your home for years to come, it’s a good idea to check if the house is in a school zone that you can imagine sending your children to. Even if you don’t have kids, the quality of the schools in your area can aff ect the resale value of your house.

It might not seem like a big deal at inspection time, but once you move into a new home and fi nd the power points are few and far between and the ones that are there are ill-placed, it can aff ect furniture placement and prove to be a real pain. Old homes particularly are not equipped to take all the gadgets we now require, and while it might not be a deal breaker, you might have to factor in an electrician’s bill on the budget to pop in a few more points.

You’re ready to buy a new home and think you have got all the details sorted. But is there anything you’ve overlooked? Here are eight common details that buyers often overlook when purchasing a property.

ollIf the neighbour’s rottweiler barks at you at the open for inspection while the other neighbour tinkers with the seven cars parked on his front lawn, it might be a sign that this home is not for you. If you don’t mind a lively neighbourhood, noisy neighbours probably won’t bother you, but if your neighbours’ values and noise levels are vastly diff erent to your own, it will make for an uncomfortable living environment no matter how beautiful the house is.

Building and pest inspections, conveyancing and legal fees and moving costs can add thousands of dollars to the bill when moving home. If you are borrowing more than 80 per cent of the purchase price, you may have to pay mortgage insurance and there’s also stamp duty (if purchasing a more expensive home). Be sure to budget these expenses into the cost of your move.

Talking this week to a young mum who had just set up a business from home was a stroll down memory

lane. It was the ’80s, when I fi rst decided it was possible to work from home. All I needed was a computer, a desk and a phone. Th e fi rst computer in 1986 was indeed humble. It could hold only 65 kilobytes so that every fi le had to be printed and then deleted, as that was about the capacity of its memory.

My greatest acquisition that confi rmed my place as a true home offi ce worker was the fax machine. I organised a lease to pay it off as it was an investment at $2200. But the huge sum was worth it for such a miracle machine. Imagine being able to send words, exactly as you see them, to someone far away in a matter of seconds. It was a breakthrough, a marvel of modern science and it represented the fi rst tentative steps to making the home offi ce feasible. Telecommuting was

becoming a reality. Within a short 20 years, though, the fax was already redundant. It is just so last century.

Th e next really big leap forward was the arrival of the modem. Now those words didn’t even have to be printed and faxed, they could just go straight down the line. Wow, this was really big stuff .

Technology has made it possible for occupations such as mine to successfully operate from home, although it might be reasonable to ask, why would you want to? Th e idea for me at the time was to fi nd a friendly mix of career and motherhood. Working from home meant that my children didn’t have to grow up in a child-care centre and could play in their own backyard rather than someone else’s.

Th ey could avoid the constant round of common colds passed around where there are mass gatherings of children. Th ey could live in their own home surrounded by their own possessions

and have their mum around from the day they were born.

In theory it sounds terrifi c and generally, overall, it did work, but it came at the price of mother’s sanity. For starters, chasing aft er children during the day oft en meant working late into the night. Th e home offi ce really came into its own aft er they went to bed, in those nice quiet times when the phone doesn’t ring and the kids aren’t yelling – these times were dedicated to churning out the work, sometimes until 2am.

I am not complaining and, given the opportunity, would do it all again, but there are pitfalls to working from home, which always sounds such a great ‘have your cake and eat it too’ sort of idea.

In the home offi ce the kids would line up all the chairs and play bus drivers. Th ey would use everything they could lay their hands on, seldom in the way it was intended. During those years, it was

monumental frustration as pens, paper, glue and rulers would be picked up, moved around and deposited anywhere but the right place. It was chaotic.

Th ey made it their business to demand mum’s attention every time the phone rang, and the more important the call, the more vocal the demand.

At lunch, though, we could all go and sit in the kitchen together and later, aft er they went to school, mum’s taxi was there to deliver them to various aft ernoon activities.

It was chaotic and stressful and hard work but yes, it was worth it and now, when the light is shining bright at the end of the tunnel, life seems criminally easy. Th e little people are big people and the home offi ce is quiet. Everything is in its place or where I choose to leave it.

I would like to say, “aah, for the good ol’ days”, but I just can’t quite manage it. Bless their little hearts.

Sitting in her home offi ce typing up her column, Dorothy Drane reminisces about her early days as a mum and a working-from-home pioneer – and what hard work it was.

Th is very comfortable four bedroom home on 5243m2 off ers a simple but eff ective investment opportunity. With subdivision potential for up to 10 lots, this fl at, fully fenced acreage is ideally located to take advantage of the new Sippy Downs Town Centre development now gaining momentum since the involvement of Woolworths.

Th ere is also four-bedroom accommodation with three bathrooms plus a study, so there is plenty of room for everyone. Th e kitchen is superb with granite bench tops, new stainless steel appliances and plenty storage space. Th e secure yard has remote gates which gives off -street parking in addition to the three-car garaging.

Th is is a great opportunity to invest in an ‘as new’ one-bedroom unit, in the ‘Caribbean Apartments’, only metres from the water. Beautifully appointed with a large 13sqm balcony, which aff ords northerly water views, this unit is ideal for a fi rst home buyer or an investor (with a rental return of $300 p/wk). Th e home features air conditioning to the master bedroom and a spacious lounge room. Stainless steel appliances and granite bench tops in the kitchen ensure that the chef in the family is very well catered for.

Combining business with family, Tammie Sommerville set up her hairdressing salon beside her house. But nowthis work-from-home advocate is ready to sell up and pass the baton on to another home-based entrepreneur.

by Dorothy Drane

Hair today…When Tammie Sommerville

reluctantly put her home on the market, she was off ering not

just a fi ne place to live, but a business opportunity as well.

Tammie, 33, is a hairdresser, and operates her salon, Hair by Tammie, in a purpose-built building beside her house near Yandina. It means she can work around her family and doesn’t have to rely on child care for her two sons, John, three, and Blair, 18 months.

And her clients have no problem coming from as far as Buderim and Noosa to enjoy the services of their favourite hairdresser.

“I have been doing their hair for a long time, so wherever I go, they will fi nd me,” Tammie says.

“Working from home means I can organise my appointments around the best times for the children. Th ey can play in the yard or come into the salon. Th e house is open so they can just come and go.”

Tammie started working for herself from home in the months before the birth of her second child.

“It never seemed to work out being a part-time worker for someone else, as they would be double or triple booked and I would end up working a full day and getting home late,” she says. “It made sense to set up for myself and have my own hours. Th at way I could breast-feed my baby and my kids wouldn’t be growing up somewhere that wasn’t their home.

“Th is way you are in control of your environment and you can basically stay at home,” Tammie adds.

Her salon is seven by six metres and was designed to work in conjunction with the house without being part of the home environment. It could also be readily

converted to a self-contained granny fl at, a studio or offi ce.

Tammie says the space would work for any business, but is particularly well suited to a beauty therapist, a nail technician or any of the health therapies.

“It would be great for Bowen or massage therapy as the setting is so beautiful as well,” she says. “Everyone who comes here for the fi rst time is surprised by not just how professional it is but also by what a beautiful and calming environment it is. It is not like you have to go into the back of a laundry to get here.”

Set on a fl at and grassed 1.25 acres off Wappa Falls Road between Nambour and Yandina, the property has plenty of room for client parking as well as a double carport and large shed with power and water.

Th e surroundings are rural and peaceful, with a small dam at the rear and a timbered reserve at the back fence.

Th e salon/offi ce has home business approval and is detached from the four-bedroom ensuited house, which is only fi ve years old.

Th e home’s kitchen is contemporary and spacious and there is a large open-plan living area that spills out on to wide wraparound decks for an indoor/outdoor lifestyle.

A landscaped pathway leads to a large inground pool, which has an adjacent gazebo for entertaining or relaxing in the shade.

Th e property is within a 10-minute drive of major shopping and a choice of private and state schools in Nambour and only fi ve minutes from local shopping in Yandina.

Tammie’s family situation has forced the sale, but the hairdresser hopes that wherever she goes, she will again be able

to set up another business from home. “Like any business, it is still hard work building up a new business, but I am looking at setting up again,” she says. “We will just have to wait and see how it all pans out.”

Kitchen RenovatorsDon’t miss out

DIY

Jade: Th ere are so many diff erent options Sarah. Demolitionists remove kitchens from sites and usually resell them quite cheaply. You can get granite-top kitchens that are only a few years old for next to nothing so make some phone calls. Aside from that, you can just look at the cosmetic stuff like applying new Laminex on top of the current benchtop and

replacing doors and handles. Or, if that is too expensive, consider just changing the bench top and the door handles – this will make a

big improvement.

Todd: I could bang on and on about the new-style kitchens

and what’s in vogue and which bonza appliances you should equip it with (anything but Kleenmaid gear, I guess) but the simple fact is that most modern kitchens are like early Arnie

movies – they’re tops for a bit, but then they become

outdated, awkward and hard to look at. My suggestion is this: GUT THE LOT! Get down to Barbeques Galore and hop into a 36-burner stainless steel instrument of gastronomical genius – a barbecue. You know the one I’m talking about – roasting hood, kitchen sink, marble cutting board, fridge, rotisserie, dishwasher, double garage, pool and wok. Whirl this baby out onto the patio for extreme barbecuing then get stuck into turning the old kitchen into a pool room! As for food storage, I’m sure this type of barbie comes with a mezzanine so swing a pantry onto that.

Dave: OK Sarah, let’s break this down. What’s the fundamental purpose of a kitchen? To store and prepare food, right? Wrong! Th e kitchen was invented so that blokes can make sexist jokes about their wives. I don’t condone any of it Sarah, I really don’t. Why do brides wear white? So that they match all the other appliances in the kitchen. Not funny. Why are women’s feet smaller than men’s? So they can stand closer to the sink. Crass! Sarah, you need to reclaim the power from the blokes and to do that you need to gut your kitchen. Erase it and erase the possibility of hurt and humiliation. Remove the kitchen and remove the temptation for sexist jokes. Maybe you could turn it into a sewing room – that’s where all good women should be when they’re not in the kitchen.

DIY BLUNDER When it came time for my parents to renovate, my brother (who’s an apprentice carpenter) and I were given the job of installing the new toilet door. He installed the door jamb and then I helped him hang the door. We were pleased to see that it was a snug fi t. My brother called in Dad who looked at the door and immediately shook his head. The toilet, a cosy room, needed the door to open outwards. We had fi xed the jamb and door so that it opened inwards, and because it was a small room, the door slammed right into the toilet, making it impossible for anyone to actually enter the room. Sorry Dad! Emma, Yandina

cover story

By designWhen it comes to design and architecture, the Sunshine Coast has its own style, but the emerging trend in residential homes is that anything goes.

Building is no doubt the best way to get what you want when it comes to your dream home. Not only do you have the opportunity to choose

exactly how you want your living environment to look, but you also get to add your personal touches to the home’s design.

Th e choices in home design are endless – so much so that you may need a little help coming up with a plan that is both functional and stylish.

Bruce Medek, Queensland chapter president of the Australian Institute of Architects, says that right now, architecture is less about trends and more about the tastes and needs of the client.

“No doubt there will be an emerging trend,” says Bruce. “We’re in a spot at the moment where the trends we’ve seen over the past 20 and 30 years are coming to an end and nothing is taking their place. Th e way the economy is going, people are now in the position where they can sit back and think about what they want in a building.”

Anthony Robbins from Sprout Architecture says a common design trend or aesthetic is hard to defi ne in new Sunshine Coast buildings. Work is specifi c to the client’s and the site’s particulars.

“We are fi nding that people are now more concerned with well-designed spaces in preference to large spaces. People are seeking more out of their properties for the least spend possible.”

If the experts were to pinpoint one major trend, it would have to be aff ordability, which is driven by the global economic downturn. Mark McGill from Greenway Architects says people are looking at cutting out a lot of the frills and seeking smarter solutions using standard off -the-shelf materials.

“People are looking at a smarter, more effi cient use of space,” says Mark. “Dining rooms are slowly disappearing, basically because most houses are designed to live and entertain outside. When inside, we’re eating in the kitchen and lounge room. Th e other key thing I’m fi nding is in a lot of houses we’re designing all bedrooms to have ensuites, making them more suitable for share accommodation.”

Another notable change in building design has to do with the shift from lightweight designs to more robust building materials and forms, which Anthony says are more suitable to our coastal environment.

“People are concerned with longevity and low maintenance for their buildings,” says Anthony. “We

have to be more innovative with our design and detailing to achieve a cost-eff ective outcome. We are doing houses with all bedrooms ensuited, and on the more valuable sites, cars are going underground. We are experimenting more with the form of buildings and the materials used to clad them.”

Technology is also playing a big part in how we’re living. Mark says people are now living more in the one room. “Technology, like laptops, id shrinking, so you don’t need the formal spaces you once needed,” says Mark. “For example, you don’t need a study. You can work on the kitchen bench, in the bedroom or outside.”

If one positive thing has come from the economic crisis it would have to be an increase in the desire to have well-designed spaces. Bruce says architects now have a lot more time on their hands to ensure they deliver the best possible results tailored to individual taste, needs and budget. “What we’re seeing is that we’re not as busy, so we’re getting more time to think about what we’re doing.”

People are concerned with longevity and low maintenance. We have to be more innovative with our design and detailing to achieve a cost-effective outcome

Bold and beautifuldisplay home

splashback and deep-stained ebony Macassar laminate cabinetry. Sleek tapware and stainless-steel appliances provide a cooling contrast to the fiery finishes. The kitchen also features deep drawers, gas-lift hinged cupboard doors and a butler’s pantry.

A rich Asian red feature wall in the living room makes a dramatic statement, while sliding stacker doors open to an alfresco terrace at the back. The terrace features a built-in island cooker.

Offering a Zen-like environment, a bamboo garden borders the alfresco area. It’s a gentle finish to the home’s dramatic and bold interior and a great place in which to meditate or chill out with a drink.

Asia comes to the Sunshine Coast with Adenbrook’s richly inspired new display home, the Ashton, now open at Mountain Creek.

A denbrook Homes’ new design, the Ashton, combines the richness and warmth of Orient stylings with the

elegance of contemporary design.The Ashton’s facade is dominated by

modern angles, including a skillion roof, but with hints of the Eastern influences with twin timber pillars at the double-storey portico, and a feature wall of oriental red cladding.

The foyer is laid with floating bamboo floors. Decorative bamboo sticks, uplit with a red glow, are arranged against the wall, set in a river of stone at its base. The high, coffered ceiling adds to the dramatic entry statement.

At the hub of the home is a sculptural staircase in polished durian timber and glass that leads to the parents’ retreat – a space dedicated to relaxation and entertainment, but that also offers practicality with a dedicated space for work or study.

The bedroom is filled with colourful silk and other soft furnishing textures inspired by Asia. Bright orange, reds and yellows are contrasted by deep-stained red cedar shutters.

The ensuite is a statement in space and modern luxury. From the bath you can view the bedroom through the cut-out wall. The sliding stacker doors can be opened to reveal a generous balcony.

Opposite the parents retreat, a spacious media room is big enough to embrace the whole family.

Downstairs, three bedrooms extend along one side of the home, sharing a bathroom towards the centre. A powder room and laundry are opposite, under the staircase.

The kitchen is defined by elegance and symmetry and features a red glass

column

Feeling fl ushStart your water-saving ways in the bathroom.

Last week I talked about energy ratings, and how the rating for all new homes to be considered

energy effi cient is fi ve stars out of 10. By purchasing more energy-effi cient toilets, taps and shower heads, many hundreds of dollars a year can be saved in electricity costs while sparing the environment.

All taps and toilets (and other water products), are required by law to be labelled with Water Effi ciency (Rating) Labels (WELS). Th e label provides a zero- to six-star rating in relation to water usage, with more stars being more effi cient.

Clearly the aim is minimum water use without compromising quality. With prolonged droughts, it is likely that the cost of water is going to increase, so any water-saving steps that you can take now will save you money and help reduce water

consumption and wastage in the future. Somewhat confusing is that the

labels for the diff erent WELS products diff er slightly, but all share two key pieces of information: star rating; and water consumption or fl ow fi gures (for example, 13.1 litres per wash).

An old-style single-fl ush toilet (those that were sold before the WELS star ratings) can use up to 12 litres of water in one fl ush. More water-effi cient dual-fl ush toilets average less than four litres.

Having a four-star WELS-rated toilet will save 1376 litres a year, per average household compared with a three-star WELS-rated toilet.

A four-star WELS-rated toilet costs approximately $25 more than a three-star WELS-rated toilet, though this price may vary depending on the range and style of toilet used.

Making plansPlanning is so important when you refurbish.

Refurbishing your existing property or bringing life to a new residence, offi ce or

commercial space can seem like a daunting task. Th ere are colours to choose, fl ooring options to mull over and literally hundreds of textile choices. One project can really be a full-time job and it always comes down to one question – where to start?

Having said all this, DIY designers-in-the-making should know that the experience of interior design should be a welcomed project as long as you incorporate some planning into it.

Whether you are installing a new kitchen, undergoing home extensions or refurbishing a restaurant, prior planning is the key to a successful and cost-eff ective project. Planning enables

Termite innovationRidding your home of these pests has just got a lot easier.

A new termite baiting system has just been released, and is now available to home owners and

not just professional termite specialists. Sneaky termites cause millions

of dollars in damage to Australian properties every year, quietly chewing through timbers both inside and outside the home. Th e new Termicure Termite Baits are designed to eliminate the whole termite colony, and they can be installed in a DIY format, which means you don’t have to hire a professional termite specialist to install them for you.

Mark Hayman from Accurate Pest Management is an authorised Sunshine Coast distributor of these new baits. He says this new system is highly successful and is now using the Termicure system where termite control is diffi cult.

“Live termites must be located in volume for eff ective treatment, and the

Termicure Termite baits provide the perfect opportunity for colony eradication,” he says. “Th e system has been well designed for home use with the reminder service included so that the home owner can save on costly bait inspections, and be involved in the process of termite elimination.”

A pack of four baits costs $165. Th e price includes a reminder service via text message and email so that you won’t forget to inspect them. Visit www.termicure.com.au for more information.

you to proceed through the task step by step and also gives you a chance to foresee any issues that may arise. Th is means you will have the chance to fi nd solutions before the work has started, which in turn saves money and time.

It’s a good idea to list the obvious spaces you require, such as, for a kitchen, a fridge space, cooktop or oven.

Th e best result oft en comes from using your imagination. Picture yourself in the space and think about how it will function. Do adjacent areas relate to each other? For example, is the crockery and cutlery storage close to the dishwasher for easier unpacking? Is food storage (fridge and pantry) close

to preparation areas, making it quicker to assemble meals?

A a good designer should be able to fully use the spaces and budget you have and provide clever solutions.

Your next step is to consider the diff erent services that will be required throughout the project. Involve these associated consultants from the beginning. Once you have undertaken these thought processes, you will be on the right track to producing a project to be proud of.

Hinterland project continues to grow

Coolum land for sale

Woodgrove in Beerwah has hit the halfway mark as Stockland enters the second phase of the community’s development.

Lend Lease is releasing land at Belle Mare at Beachside.

The hinterland’s residential community of Woodgrove has just reached the halfway mark

with dozens of families now calling the estate home.

Th e Stockland project was launched in March last year and has become a popular choice for home buyers in the hinterland region. Woodgrove is a 304-lot community located in the heart of Beerwah and within walking distance of local shopping and the train station. It also features the area’s only display home centre.

Stockland’s regional manager for the Sunshine Coast, Nick Wellwood, says his company is delighted to reach the halfway milestone. “Since our fi rst residents moved in last November, we have welcomed dozens of new families who have fi nished construction of their homes,’’ Nick says.

“We have also recently launched some of the community’s most elevated home sites with great bushland views and lush surroundings.

“Th e best is defi nitely still to come for this exciting new neighbourhood.’’

Beerwah is becoming a major centre for the Sunshine Coast hinterland with its ease of access to both Brisbane and the beach, its train service, and its proximity to Australia Zoo and an 18-hole golf course.

Children are well catered for with the Beerwah State Primary School and Beerwah State High School, as well as the Glasshouse Country Christian College. Th e Bella Grace early learning centre is also right next door.

Th e Woodgrove community off ers a wide range of lot sizes and is attracting a variety of new residents, from fi rst-home buyers to growing families and mature couples.

Nick says Woodgrove off ers aff ordable homes in a quiet and convenient location. “While it is popular with fi rst-home buyer, we are also seeing demand from more mature buyers who may be downsizing from acreage but still looking for a country-style atmosphere.

Lend Lease has announced the release of its latest premium land off ering – Belle Mare at Beachside.

Located within Hyatt Coolum’s luxurious Beachside community, Belle Mare at Beachside is nestled between the sand dunes that front the ocean and the fi ve-star resort.

Lend Lease Sunshine Coast project director Warren Th omson says the coastal strip is one of the last remaining beachside land opportunities available on the Coast.

“Belle Mare at Beachside off ers purchasers an opportunity to experience the unique mix of beach, golf and resort-style living, complemented by a partnership with one of world’s leading

hotel and leisure brands, Hyatt Regency.” With allotment prices starting at

$370,000, Belle Mare at Beachside includes premium dune-frontage positions, park-front land overlooking future recreational facilities as well as low-maintenance courtyards, and range in size from 404 to 824 square metres. Th ere are off -the-plan living options suitable for families or any buyer looking for a relaxed, beachfront lifestyle, which is close to all amenities.

Th ere are limited allotments available within Belle Mare at Beachside, so only a few will be able to secure land.

Phone 1800 688 530 or email [email protected] for more information.

“Th ese people may have spent many years living in the local area and are now opting for smaller and more manageable blocks with the added bonus of a brand new home.

“Woodgrove has the facilities that young families need, such as its own central lake, park with play equipment and barbecue, as well as the natural bushland setting and good location that appeals to people in other life stages.

Woodgrove has home sites available from 457 to 730 square metres with prices starting at $168,000.

Stockland is also off ering aff ordable home and land packages at Woodgrove, starting at just $323,178 for a three-bedroom home.

For more information phone 5494 0765 or visit the Woodgrove Sales and Information Centre off Roberts Road, Beerwah.
