1. What makes Hunters Hill different

  • Seven Heritage Conservation Areas under the LEP; 500+ heritage items. Expect CAP (Conservation Advisory Panel) look-ins for prominent works.

  • State reforms & density: Council notes that dual occ can be allowed on lots as small as 450 m² under State reforms, contrasting with the former 700 m² LEP threshold; detail continues to evolve.

2. Design Themes that Win Here

Think ottomans with hidden storage, fold-out desks, and sofa beds. These multitasking heroes save space and keep your home looking clean and uncluttered.

3. Vertical Storage FTW

When floor space is tight, think up! Install floating shelves, use tall cabinets, or add a loft bed with a workspace underneath. You’ll gain storage and style in one go.

4. Keep It Light (Literally)

Light colors open up a room, making it feel airy and expansive. Opt for whites, creams, and soft pastels on walls and furniture. Add pops of color with decor to keep it lively.
