This 1920s property was owned by a builder for a decade before he tackled its extensive renovation. Completed this year, it retains its facade but everything else is cutting-edge; it gains wide American oak floors, hydronic heating, double glazing and a butler’s pantry. The compact north-facing garden has a pool/spa and a deck that merges with a fabulous poolside pavilion with built-in barbecue. Hello, summer!

There’s plenty of wow about this crisp modern house on a pocket-sized corner site between Nelson Place restaurant precinct and the coastal heritage park. It’s in an estate developed recently by individual owners, thus giving its streets personality rather than uniformity. The open-plan living area flows to an alfresco area and deck with swim-spa. Two bedrooms upstairs and one downstairs each have an en suite.
