Australian architecture styles

Australians are passionate about property– be it home ownership or investment. Renovating to upscale a home or improve its value is increasing in popularity as homeowners build their equity holdings in bricks-and-mortar assets.

Have you ever wondered what your property’s true potential is? Its architectural style will have a big impact. To help Australian home buyers and sellers make the most of their property we have outlined the common architectural styles in the Australian real estate market–including key characteristics, their value and tips on how best to renovate, update or market them.

From Queenslanders to California Bungalows and converted industrial warehouses, we have spoken with the Australian Institute of Architects’ Ask An Architect service, and the real estate institutes of New South Wales and Victoria, to find out how you can improve your existing property, or make a savvy purchase when evaluating a home for sale.
