A complete rebuilding of a tired house from the 1950s in that of Canberra’s most prestigious suburbs has set a new standard for architectural excellence that combines timeless luxury with advanced technology and it is simply on the market.
“We have never seen anything of this caliber in Canberra in Canberra,” said the local agent, Josh Morrissey of Hive Property, of newly mentioned 29 Gawler Crescent, Deakin.

Nestled in the prestigious, trees-surrounded streets of Deakin-one of the most desired suburbs of Canberra and takes its name from the large prefabricated ‘Halo’ on the second floor with the selected palm tree as the center for the house, Halo, originated from the location of a classic hometown in the 1950s.
Bought by Builder Ben Matthew In 2023, the seasoned ownership Mogul worked with his friend and architect, Ben Walker, to create a sanctuary that was both technically advanced and deeply connected to the natural environment.

The result is a sculptural house on three levels that seem to float above his landscape on massive concrete dates, supported by striking stone knives.
A merger of art and technology
The Rulbook rewriting for high-end houses, the amazing building unfolds as a series of carefully manufactured spaces. In the heart is a huge, circular concrete void where a single, majestic 13 meter palm reaches to heaven and brings the outdoor life with a dramatic flair.

One of the most compelling characteristics of the building is the kinetic facade. This smart skin is composed of more than 4,000 individual aluminum slats and automatically adapts to the position of the sun during the day and offers dynamic shade and a unique visual effect. It is proof of the technological ability of the house and its dedication to energy efficiency, all without endangering the design.
“The house also has the largest manufactured double glazed circular skylights of Australia throughout the house,” Mr. Morrissey told Realestate.com.au.

“This bathes the house in the light and creates the feeling that you are in the air. There is a roof terrace on top of the house with 360 panoramic views of the city, from the parliament house to the distant hills, which is a different luxury for a property of this caliber in the area.”
The luxury factor continues with a heated swimming pool, spacious foreign outdoor space and a kitchen that is suitable for both large-scale entertaining and quiet family moments, dominated by a four-meter marble plates of the Tundra that serves as the center.

A separate, fully equipped Butler’s Pantry ensures that the most important living room remains a pristine space to socialize.
Natural attention to detail
The duo who already proved their home design with a home in Carnegie Crescent, Narrabundah, who broke local records-the home of the home on Goldilocks-Level built sturdy and attention and attention to detail.
An example: Search for the dry -stacked gray sandstone walls in the formal living room. Ben and Ben spent a month after month with stone samples to find exactly the right tone and grain, so that the render was created after the render, until they finally found it in a Byron Bay stone quarry.

It was then a matter of hiring a truck company to return a 26 -hour return with several trucks, so that 60 tons were pulled back to Canberra, where it was broken up and cut by hand.
“The efforts that went in this project to reach the vision of the owner has been the next level,” said Mr. Morrissey. “Their willingness to push the boundaries through design, quality and level of finishes has created a house that is years ahead of its time for Canberra.”

Given the depth of the care and passion that went into the building, potential buyers may wonder exactly why Ben and his family have decided to leave the prestigious path so quickly after its completion.
It appears that a holiday in Queensland – in combination with a surprise of a house in the Sunshine State – the builder and his brooding in a warmer climate required.
A new standard for the elite market in Canberra
Deakin is already one of Canberra’s most sought after suburbs, with his leafy streets, the proximity of the city and historic houses. And with a median house price for $ 1.8 million, it is a market that usually attracts buyers with a sharp eye for quality, and interest has already been strong.
“So far we have had 345,000 digital impression about different channels and we have received overwhelmingly positive feedback through our pre-market private display.”

Given the increase in overseas interest in the Australian prestige -ownership, Mr. Morrissey is convinced that Halo needs what is needed to attract both international buyers and to break through the exhibiting $ 9.2 million Dakin -Benchmark.
“Halo are absolutely in the competition to attract a strong international interest – indeed, we have already been interested through our network. The premium training options attract a lot of international interest in families to move and send their children to school, plus enormous business opportunities here.

“This would be such a difficult house to replicate, and the time and costs and stress involved in reaching the end product will certainly translate into the higher end of the price for the suburb.”
