02 HOME TOUR Molly House A seamless extension of the landscape, this considered coastal abode uses materiality to champion an effortless lifestyle with character at the core.
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 Architect: Callum Eve, MUM design Builder: Jack James Construction Styled by: Claire Denton Photography: Shaun Naylor-Clarke Words: Olivia Storrie A charming coastal town on New South Wales’ laid-back South Coast, life in Mollymook is guided by the rhythms of sea, salt and sun. Nestled comfortably within this idyllic community on Boag Street, you’ll find one of Mollymook’s most striking residents, The Molly House. Designed by architect Callum Eve of MUM Design, this innovative build harnesses the power of materiality to create a home that is durable, discreet, and packed with character that will only continue to evolve with time. For owners James and Claire, working with the sloped block was crucial in fulfilling the vision. “We didn’t want a two-storey home to feel disconnected, or to simply elevate the house on poles and leave unusable space underneath,” they share. By investing in extensive earthworks and tiering the backyard, they were able to blend the home seamlessly into the side of the hill. Not just a foundation for the rest of the build, this essential step was also Callum’s favourite aspect of the design. “I like the way it sits on the site, low and modest when viewed from the street, only exposing itself as you work your way through the building like a private moment between you and the house.” Effortlessly merging with its coastal backdrop, the home harnesses light, coastal breeze and a rawness that speaks to Australia’s landscape through carefully chosen materials that are both durable and low-maintenance. Materials like hardwood cladding and exposed galvanised steel were chosen by James and Claire so that they would “weather naturally and improve over time.” The choice to focus on industrial materials was both a functional and aesthetic choice. An homage to Mollymook’s coastal and rural farming background, the emphasis wasn’t just on character but utility, too. “The steel components are structural, carrying real loads, but we wanted to celebrate the raw materials rather than hide them”, they share. “Polished concrete floors offer excellent thermal mass, help regulate temperature, and are low-maintenance — ideal for children, dogs, and holiday living.” As for the floods of natural light, this was a consideration of Callum’s from the get-go. “Every bedroom features floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that maximise sunlight”, shares James and Claire. “A central void brings light from the second storey down to the ground floor, ensuring even the heart of the home feels bright and airy. The result is a house with virtually no dark spaces, where natural light defines and enhances every living area.” Not purely aesthetic, Architect Callum adds, “maximising direct sun access to the internal spaces heats the inside during winter, yet during summer months when the sun is higher in the sky, the considered eave size doesn’t allow direct sunlight into the space, removing the need for mechanical heating or cooling.” All part and parcel of the build’s sustainable focus. “The louvre windows let in the bright moonlight and the ocean echoes at night, creating a magical connection between the interior and the surrounding landscape. These spaces capture both the calm and the character of living on the South Coast.” — James & Claire The master bedroom and ensuite continue the quiet dialogue with the landscape, looking “directly onto a native garden filled with flowering gums, banksias, and all the local wildlife — birds, bats, possums.” James and Claire explain: “The louvre windows let in the bright moonlight and the ocean echoes at night, creating a magical connection between the interior and the surrounding landscape. These spaces capture both the calm and the character of living on the South Coast.” And at the centre of the home, fire becomes another elemental force. Framed by the void, this “serves the house in a way that it almost feels like a courtyard with a campfire,” shares Callum on his favourite feature. In a town where life is guided by coastal cadence, The Molly House responds in kind, not competing with its surrounds, but moving in rhythm with them.

SITCHU MAGAZINE 1. Know Your Market The first step to earning more is understanding your market. Rental demand, tenant demographics, and local economic factors all influence how much rent you can charge. Inner-city apartments often attract young professionals who value convenience, while larger suburban homes appeal to families seeking long-term rentals. Staying on top of rental trends and occupancy rates helps you price your property correctly; high enough to maximise income, but not so high that it sits empty. Tip: Check local property reports for information on rental rates, occupancy trends and recent sales. Your local Belle Property Manager can provide tailored insights on demand and growth opportunities in your area. 2. Boost Appeal Through Presentation And Maintenance First impressions matter. Properties that are clean, modern and wellmaintained typically attract high-quality tenants and can command higher rent. Even small improvements such as a fresh coat of paint, updated fixtures or enhanced landscaping can make a noticeable difference. In competitive markets, professional photos or staging can help your property stand out, attract interest faster and reduce vacancy periods. Tip: Focus on upgrades that enhance the tenant experience and the longterm health of your property, rather than just cosmetic changes. Regular maintenance ensures your property remains desirable and helps protect your investment over time. 3. Explore Flexible Rental Options Long-term leases aren’t your only way to generate income. Depending on your property and location, short-term, holiday or furnished rentals can often achieve higher returns than traditional leases. These options are particularly effective in areas with strong tourism or high demand for temporary accommodation. Keep in mind that short-term and holiday rentals involve additional considerations, including marketing costs, more frequent maintenance, cleaning, higher tenant turnover and potential vacancies during off-peak periods. Tip: Research local regulations, tax implications and management options before changing your rental strategy. For personalised guidance, speak with your local Belle Property office to determine which rental approach best suits your property and goals. 4. Be Prepared For Pets Rental laws across many Australian states now limit a property owner’s ability to refuse pets. In places like New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland, tenants can request to keep a pet, and landlords must have reasonable grounds to decline. Pet-friendly homes continue to attract strong tenant interest and can reduce vacancy periods, particularly in suburban and family-focused areas. Being prepared protects your investment while keeping you compliant. Tip: Choose durable, hard-wearing flooring, ensure fencing and gates are secure and include clear pet conditions in the tenancy agreement (such as professional carpet cleaning or flea treatment at the end of the tenancy). Where appropriate, refer to your local Belle Property office for your state regulations. 5. Be Smart About Taxes Rental income is taxable, but there are ways to reduce what you pay legally. Keep accurate records of expenses and explore depreciation for items like fixtures, appliances and renovations. Working with a property-savvy accountant ensures you’re getting every deduction available while remaining compliant. Tip: Review your tax strategy regularly to stay aligned with changing legislation and ensure you’re optimising your investment outcomes. 6. Use Professional Property Management A skilled property manager can make a real difference to your rental income. They can set the right rent, market your property effectively, screen tenants and handle maintenance. Strong management keeps your property occupied, protects your investment and gives you more time to focus on other priorities. Tip: Your local Belle Property office can help connect with a property manager who delivers strong results in your local market. Owning an investment property can be a great way to build wealth, but getting the most out of it takes more than just holding onto the asset. To really boost your income, you need a plan that balances understanding the market, keeping your property in top shape and making smart improvements. Here’s a practical guide to help you get the best from your investment, with insights from Belle Property’s Head of Property Management, Fabian Ekker.

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 After years of restrained minimalism and pared-back palettes, the 70s revival has arrived — warmer, moodier and far more expressive than anything we’ve seen in the last decade. Where we once stripped interiors back to white walls, greige furniture and clean lines, we’re now leaning into personality. Texture. Depth. A little drama. And at the heart of it all? A nostalgic nod to the decade that knew how to make a room feel alive. Warm Tones Mid-toned timbers, rattan/cane and earthy hues are leading the charge. Caramel, burnt orange, chocolate brown and limoncello yellow are slipping back into our homes with confidence, offering a warm counterpoint to the cool greys that dominated the early 2000s. The key to keeping retro warmth feeling current is restraint. Instead of drenching every surface in bright retro shades, choose one or two hero tones and let them anchor the room. From there, layer in accents through textiles, ceramics or artwork. The result should feel cocooning rather than heavy — inviting, not overwhelming. Sunken Seats As our screentime creeps ever higher, today’s interiors are being designed with human connection in mind. One of the greatest examples of this is the return of the 70s staple: the sunken living room. Also known as conversation pits, these recessed, low-slung lounges, arranged facing inwards, encourage intimacy and connection. You don’t need a sunken floor to capture the spirit, though. Low modular sofas, curved sectionals and seating that faces each other rather than a screen can achieve the same effect. The mood is relaxed, intimate and intentionally social — a space made for people, not the television. Textural Balance The 70s made fluffy bright orange shags part of the mainstream. And while we’re not quite ready to resurrect that musty-dusty trend, texture still has a big part to play in creating that cosy, enveloping sense of softness the 70s were known for. Plush carpets, velvet, fringe detailing, faux fur and suede all bring welcome tactility and warmth. To keep it from feeling nostalgic in the wrong way, contrast matters. Chrome, nickel, lacquer and glass cut through the heaviness and add clarity. It’s this balance — plush against polished — that keeps the look contemporary. Built-In Moments From banquette seating to built-in bars, the 70s had a bit of a love affair with joinery. Back then, it could feel heavy or boxy. Today’s interpretation is lighter and more refined. Think softly curved cabinetry, dining nooks, integrated daybeds and custom timber shelving that feels architectural rather than bulky. These built-in moments add permanence and purpose, creating rooms that feel intentional and thoughtfully resolved. Mood Lighting The 70s understood the impact of lighting, favouring warm pools of lamplight over unforgiving overhead glare. That softer, mood-lit approach is thankfully finding its way back into our homes. Picture mushroom lamps, smoked glass pendants, space-age curves and a little fringe for good measure — playful statement pieces that double as both illumination and art.
