View project
A completed neighbourhood shaped by landscape, memory and a different idea of suburban living.
Built on the former Wantirna Heights School site, the project brings together 51 homes, townhouses and terraces within a landscape-led masterplan. Now complete, it reads less like a development – and more like a neighbourhood that’s always belonged there.
Not a typical housing estate. Something quieter. More grounded.

Architecture
Robust. Restrained. Designed to age well.
Exposed bricks, timber and natural finishes create a material palette that feels familiar, but considered. Nothing unnecessary added for effect.
Inside, the generous volumes and carefully placed openings bring in light and outlook. Materials are durable. Details are resolved.
Homes that feel grounded from the beginning – and remain that way.

Sustainability
Designed to be sustainable from the start.
The homes are fully electric, with 7-star NatHERS and solar power, rainwater harvesting and passive design as standard working together in the background.
Comfort improves. Energy use reduces. Not through add-ons – but through early decisions that shape how the homes perform every day.
Beyond the homes, water-sensitive design and native planting support a broader ecology. So its less about metrics, more about how the place works over time.
What sustainability means at Kingloch Parade.
7 Star energy ratings.
The development creates a benchmark in green living, with 7 star average NatHERS ratings providing superior thermal comfort.
BESS design excellence.BESS ranks how sustainable the design is as a whole, scoring areas such as energy, water, waste and urban ecology. 56 Kingloch Parade achieves BESS design ‘excellence’, a voluntary commitment that goes beyond ticking the minimum requirements.
Less pit and pipe, more bird life.Underneath the surface, bio swales passively irrigate the many plants and trees to create local biodiversity and feed the native birds. A blue green spine cuts right through the middle of the site, creating a sustainable and practical space that’s also great to look at.
Fossil fuel free.Fully electric, the development utilizes the latest, cutting edge appliances for cooking, hot water and heating to ensure all homes are future proof. And that also means no gas bills.
Made for all (Melbourne’s) weather conditions.Solar panels are provided as standard, generating over a quarter of the energy demand for the development. And rainwater tanks for every home save over 1,500 kL of clean, drinking water from going to waste. With shading devices throughout and cross flow ventilation in mind, each home enjoys the highest standards of thermal comfort.
Landscape
Landscape is the project’s real organising idea.
A central blue-green spine carries water, planting and movement through the site. It connects homes, softens edges and creates a space for everyday interaction.
Cars are pushed to the perimeter. What remains is quieter and walkable, where paths replace driveways and encounters replace isolation.

The community
“When I first walked through the front door of my house, I felt like I’m like in a hotel.. and then it’s like I’m on holiday!”
