SITCHU MAGAZINE Explore More Stylish Homes Peek inside exquisite properties and boutique accommodation across Australia and hear what inspired the architects, interior designers and homeowners. sitchu.com.au/home-tours Developer: Tom (@tomlaneconsulting) and Emma Lane (@emmallane) of The Range Estates Architect: Tom and Emma Lane in conjunction with Sam Ray of Story Design Collective Interior Designer + styling: Emma Lane of The Range Estates Builder: Rhys Carmichael of Avid Constructions + Contracting Landscape Architect: Paul Appleton of Landscape Workshop Landscape Gardener: Shayne Banks of Booyong Rainforest Creations Stonemason: Tancrede Helye of Pacific Stonemasons Photography: Sean Fennessy @seanfennessy Words: Olivia Storrie When the team at The Range Estate first envisioned a hinterland escape inspired by slow living, the very first decision to be made was the site location. Staying true to the team’s philosophy of creating spaces that respect the land, it was only natural that the site selection for Copperstone was guided entirely by the land. Co-founder of The Range Estates, Emma Lane, shares, “Rather than imposing a position, we spent time understanding how the landscape behaved, where the light fell, where breezes moved, and which vantage points felt most grounding. The home was placed to feel anchored and protected, while still opening outward to capture long views and a sense of quiet expansiveness.” Nestled in the Northern Rivers’ tranquil Bangalow, every detail of the impeccable five-bedroom home has been informed by the concept of ‘slow living’, offering guests a place to truly unwind and reconnect. For moments of connection, Emma shares that a variety of communal spaces were constructed to “offer different ways of coming together depending on the moment”, whether they be large gatherings, quiet conversations, or solitary reflection. “Each entertaining area responds to a different time of day, light quality, or mood. It gives guests the freedom to move intuitively through the space rather than being confined to one central zone,” continues Emma. Equally thoughtful was the decision to feature a walk-in robe, ensuite and private balcony for each of the guest rooms, offering an opportunity to soak in the serenity. A room the team poured plenty of love and attention into was the kitchen, which Emma describes as “very much the heart of Copperstone”. She explains, “It’s designed for gathering — functional but deeply inviting. It speaks to the way we imagine the home being lived in — unpretentious, social, and centred around food and connection.” ”Beyond the functionality of the spaces, the team were keen to craft something with just as much visual charm. Blending the star of the show, the Australian landscape, with classic European architectural influences was the aim, achieved via proportion, rhythm and material restraint. “We focused on natural, tactile finishes that would age gracefully — stone, timber, plaster, and metal with honest patina,” Emma explains. This also meant adding texture for depth and warmth to achieve a lived-in ambience. “We wanted the surfaces to invite touch and develop character over time”, she adds. Whilst the home is a masterclass in aesthetic harmony, it is the sense of ease the home creates that the team are most proud of — the slow living philosophy that prompted the project in the first place. “It doesn’t ask anything of you”, promises Emma, “it simply allows you to arrive, exhale, and be present. That feeling is hard to manufacture, and we’re grateful it came through so naturally.” “Rather than imposing a position, we spent time understanding how the landscape behaved, where the light fell, where breezes moved, and which vantage points felt most grounding.” — Emma Lane

Looking for more tips for your property, or thinking about buying or selling your home? Visit belleproperty.com/buy 05 SITCHU MAGAZINE 1. Sale Method Choosing the right method of sale is one of the most important early decisions. The three main options are auction, tender and private treaty, each offering different advantages. Auctions can generate urgency and competitive bidding, often helping secure strong prices when managed well. Tenders are typically suited to unique or high-end homes without a clear market benchmark, with buyers submitting offers by a set date. Private treaty involves listing with an asking price and negotiating directly with buyers, offering flexibility but typically less upward price pressure. While many agents believe auctions can achieve premium results, the right method ultimately depends on the property and market. 2. Marketing Strategy Regardless of the sale method, a targeted marketing campaign is essential to attract serious buyers. A multi-channel approach typically delivers the strongest exposure, including professional photography and copywriting, online portal listings, social media, email marketing, print collateral and local area promotion. “Effective marketing is about reaching the right buyers in the right way,” says Andrew. “Strong exposure allows sellers to test the market and gather valuable early feedback.” Digital pre-market platforms, such as Belle Property’s First to see, provide early access to registered buyers before a public launch. This can help sellers gauge interest and refine pricing or presentation before committing to a full campaign. 3. Property Presentation Presentation plays a powerful role in how buyers perceive a home. Creating an emotional connection can significantly influence the final sale price. “First impressions matter,” Andrew explains. “Decluttering, cleaning and thoughtful styling can dramatically change how buyers respond.” Simple improvements such as removing personal items, maintaining gardens and enhancing curb appeal can elevate a property’s impact and buyer engagement. 4. Pricing Your Property Pricing is both strategic and evidence-based. Agents assess comparable sales, current listings, property features, buyer demand and broader market conditions. “Pricing correctly from the start is crucial,” says Andrew. “It attracts serious buyers, encourages competition and supports campaign momentum. Staying responsive to market feedback is equally important.” Take the First Step Selling a property can feel complicated, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. From selecting the right sale method to marketing, presentation and pricing, an experienced agent can guide you through every step of the process and help achieve the best outcome. “If you’re ready to sell, speak with your local Belle Property agent today,” Andrew advises. “With the right strategy and expert guidance, you can start your campaign with confidence and maximise your property’s potential.” Selling a property requires more than setting a price and waiting for buyers. A successful campaign depends on careful planning, strategy and execution — all of which influence buyer interest and the final result. Four key components underpin a strong sales campaign: sale method, marketing strategy, property presentation and pricing. Understanding each is essential to achieving the best outcome. The Four Keys to a Successful Property Sales Campaign “Selecting the right sale method is critical. Auctions can create competition, while private treaty allows more flexibility. The key is aligning the method with your property, goals and market conditions.” — Andrew Robinson, Belle Property Head of NSW

Looking for more home design inspiration? For styling tips, interior design trends and roundups of the hottest new furniture on the market, visit sitchu.com.au/home-design Drinking culture is shifting, run clubs have become social hubs, and Sunday sessions are being swapped for saunas, cold plunges and early-morning matcha runs. Even our hobbies are slowing down, with books, crafts and analogue rituals making a serious comeback. Wellness is no longer something we brush off or squeeze in; it’s something we’re building our lives around. And it’s showing up at home in very real ways. Where plush home cinemas once signalled luxury, serene wellness spaces are now taking their place — ushering in a new design-led era of quiet connection. If you’re considering bringing wellness into your home, start with the intention. Is the space for Pilates? Meditation? Strength training? Recovery? Let the way you want to live guide the design. From there, it’s simply a matter of budget and scale — whether you’re building from scratch or carving out a small retreat in a spare room, garage, backyard studio or even a converted granny flat. Steamy Retreat If you’re craving bathhouse energy at home, a sauna is a great place to start. The style you choose will come down to budget, space and the type of heat you prefer. Traditional Finnish saunas use hot stones, with water poured over them to create a steamy, high-heat experience that pairs beautifully with a cold plunge. They tend to come with a higher price tag and may require professional installation, but the payoff is a truly immersive, spa-style ritual. Infrared saunas, on the other hand, offer a drier, gentler heat with a faster warm-up time — with plenty of plug-and-play models that make setup faster and more affordable. If you’re short on space, a steam shower is another smart way of bringing that warm enveloping heat into your everyday bathroom (just make sure ventilation is handled properly to avoid moisture issues over time). Cold Plunge Alongside saunas, cold plunge pools, outdoor showers and ice baths are increasingly being designed into homes for contrast therapy. Even a simple plunge setup can feel elevated when it’s styled properly — outdoor tiling, timber screening for privacy, towel hooks, robe storage and a dedicated rinse-off shower nearby. Dream Studio That dusty treadmill tucked into the corner of the garage won’t cut it in 2026. Home fitness is levelling up, with more people investing in spaces that feel as considered as a boutique studio. The equipment is personal, of course — reformer Pilates machines, weights, cardio, mobility tools, recovery gear. But the real difference is in the design. Sound-absorbing flooring (rubber, cork or vinyl) makes the space feel solid and intentional, while good ventilation is essential if you want it to stay fresh. Mirrors help bounce light through the room and double as a practical tool for form checks, while sleek custom cabinetry with considered storage keeps the vibe uncluttered and spa-like. Sensory Indulgence The most luxurious wellness spaces are rooted in sensory experience — lighting, texture and atmosphere the difference between a spare room and a true retreat. Natural light is ideal, but layered lighting matters just as much. Think wall sconces, soft lamps, LED strips or dimmable overheads that can shift the mood from energising mornings to calming evenings. Scent is another underrated tool — whether that’s incense, a signature room spray, a diffuser blend or a candle that instantly signals “switch off.” Bring in warmth through texture — plush towels, woven baskets, linen curtains, stone or timber accents, and greenery that softens the space — and consider added comforts like hydration stations or tea nooks to enhance the spa-like experience.

FOR THE FOODIES Little Black Pig & Sons carries the imprint of chef David Lakhi, whose culinary roots span Punjab farms and Italian kitchens. His Heidelberg dining room champions local makers and heartfelt cooking, transforming humble ingredients into plates shaped by memory and instinct. When you’re creating a new dish, what’s the very first thing you pay attention to — the ingredient, the feeling, or the story you want it to tell? I’m always looking for what story we can tell about the dish, the ingredients, and where they are sourced from. At the end of the day, we obviously eat to fill our stomachs, but we also do that because it gives us the opportunity to connect with each other through the stories we tell and share. You learnt to cook through instinct and memory. How can home cooks begin to trust their senses the way you do, rather than relying on recipes? I always work with one formula, and that is to trust your instincts, cook with your senses, and don’t overcomplicate. Cucina povera and your childhood in Punjab share a deep respect for humble ingredients. What’s one everyday ingredient you believe people overlook, and how would you bring it to life? People always overlook vegetables. We’re constantly fed the idea of vegetables being boring, but if you do them right, they can be delicious. I’ve seen people overlooking red cabbage. The way we use it is by cooking it with Granny Smith apple, fennel, brown onion, garlic, and a dash of balsamic vinegar. This way, it becomes the perfect side for any pork dish. Your menus shift with growers, weather and community. What’s the most surprising ingredient or seasonal gift that changed the direction of a dish, and what did it teach you? The most important lesson I’ve learnt with seasonality is that the quality of the produce is paramount. When you’re a young cook, you want to create and plate a dish that might have ingredients which are not in season, but you’ve decided to go ahead and put them on the plate anyway. The dish might look good for the eyes but not necessarily for the palate. Take a tomato when in season and grown ethically; all you need is fresh basil leaves, good cold-pressed olive oil, and locally sourced fresh buffalo mozzarella. A handful of ingredients, and you’ve got a pretty good dish. Little Black Pig & Sons feels built on feeling as much as flavour. What’s one piece of kitchen wisdom from your mother or Nonna Clara that you return to when you want food to carry heart? I remember the simplest and most delicious meal I’ve ever tasted in my life, Nonna Clara’s pasta e fagioli. She taught me to cook from the heart and smile while you do. We cooks have a very privileged role in this society to recreate memories and stories through a plate of food. At The Table With David Lakhi Co-Owner and Chef at Little Black Pig & Sons, Heidelberg, Melbourne Hugh Davidson for Little Black Pig and Sons Movida This is the Spanish restaurant that ignited Melburnians’ love for modern Spanish cuisine, and since it opened 20 years ago, it’s been a vibrant, bustling dining spot on the scene. Cutler and Co Cutler & Co. unfolds like a quietly commanding presence in Melbourne’s fine dining landscape — where formality loosens into effortless elegance. Jinda Thai Everyone knows that if you’re looking for authentic Thai cuisine, Jinda is the place to go. Here, they certainly don’t hold back on the heat, and you’ll find regional specialties like crispy catfish and pickled crab not commonly seen elsewhere. 1 Hosier Lane, Melbourne 55-57 Gertrude St, Fitzroy 1 Ferguson Street, Abbotsford @movidamelb Hugh Davidson for Cutler & Co @Jindamelb David’s Top Restaurants: I cook the way my mother taught me to live — with care, instinct and whatever the season places in front of me.” 08

Blanch the shelled peas for 2–3 minutes, until bright green and tender. Immediately transfer peas to iced water to stop the cooking, then drain well. Place peas in a food processor with: 3 cloves garlic Parmigiano Reggiano Lemon juice Cracked black pepper A pinch of salt Process but keep it chunky. With the motor running, drizzle in extra virgin olive oil until the purée is spoonable, and vibrant green. Taste and adjust seasoning. Set aside at room temperature. Prepare the Artichoke Trim the globe artichoke: Remove tough outer leaves. Peel the stem. Cut away the top third. Remove the choke. Cut the heart into quarters and keep in acidulated water (water with some freshly squeezed lemon) until ready to cook to avoid oxidation. Heat a generous splash of olive oil in a small pan over very gentle heat. Add crushed garlic and artichoke quarters with a pinch of salt. Cook slowly for 15–20 minutes, turning occasionally, until soft, lightly golden, and aromatic (they should confit rather than fry). Finish with: Chopped parsley and dash of red wine vinegar. Remove from heat and keep warm. Assemble the Dish Spoon a generous circle of warm green pea purée onto each plate, smoothing with the back of a spoon. Place the burrata gently in the centre of the purée. Arrange the sautéed artichoke quarters around the burrata. Finish with: Extra cracked black pepper. A drizzle of good olive oil Fresh herbs, if desired. 09
