The property unicorn in south western Sydney
This stylish family home is so comfortable, no one will want to leave
< 1 min
In a city like Sydney, finding the right property is about more than the price tag. For extended families looking to accommodate multiple generations under one roof, there’s a list of criteria that need to be met, from the number of bedrooms and car spaces to accessibility to the city.
This property at 29 Nicoll Street in Roselands makes it look easy.
Set over three levels, including a basement with parking for six cars, the five-bedroom, three-bathroom house is positioned on a 565sqm block. Carefully crafted to draw in northern light through both floors while maintaining privacy from the neighbours, the house has an internal courtyard at its heart, as well as a built-in saltwater pool with party lighting at the rear.
Four bedrooms, including a spacious parents’ retreat, are spread across the upper floor, while a fifth secondary master suite near the front door on the ground floor is ideal for in-law accommodation or adult children. Hybrid workers will love the spacious bedroom on the upper floor with a view of the street that could easily be converted to a home office.
Everything about this home has been considered, from the well-appointed kitchen with walk-in pantry in the open plan living area to the integrated lighting on the staircase. Finishes are stylish but neutral, making it ideal for would-be buyers to put their own stamp on.
While the house sits on a tree-lined street, it is well connected to the main thoroughfares of King Georges and Canterbury Roads. The recently upgraded Roselands Shopping Centre is also nearby, as well as Canterbury and Bexley golf clubs.

For affluent homeowners, the laundry is no longer a utility space. It’s becoming a performance-driven investment in hygiene, longevity and seamless living.

In high-end homes, the most telling upgrades are no longer the obvious ones.
It’s not just the marble in the kitchen or the view from the terrace. Increasingly, it’s the rooms you don’t see, and how well they actually work.
The laundry is a perfect example.
Once treated as a purely functional space, it is now being reconsidered by architects and homeowners alike as a zone where performance, hygiene and design need to align.
And for buyers operating at the top end of the market, that shift is less about aesthetics and more about control.
Because in a home where everything is curated, inefficiency stands out.
ASKO’s latest “Laundry Care 2.0” range leans directly into that mindset, positioning the laundry as a long-term investment rather than a basic appliance purchase.
Built on more than 75 years of engineering, the Scandinavian brand’s latest systems focus on durability, precision and what is becoming a defining luxury in modern homes: quiet.
One of the more telling innovations is something most buyers would never think to question until it fails.
Traditional washing machines rely on rubber seals that trap dirt and bacteria over time. ASKO replaces that entirely with a steel solution designed to maintain a cleaner, more hygienic drum.
It’s not a headline feature. But it is exactly the kind of detail buyers tend to notice.
Then there is the issue of noise.
As open-plan living has become standard in prestige homes, the background hum of appliances has gone from unnoticed to intrusive.
ASKO’s suspension system is engineered to minimise vibration almost entirely, allowing machines to run without disrupting the wider home environment.
In practical terms, that means a load can run late at night without carrying through the house. In lifestyle terms, it means the home functions as intended.
The same thinking extends to the drying process. Uneven loads, tangled fabrics and repeat cycles are treated as inefficiencies rather than inconveniences, with technology designed to keep garments moving evenly and reduce wear over time.
For buyers, this is where the value proposition sharpens.
It is not about having more features. It is about removing friction.
Less maintenance. Less noise. Less time spent correcting what should have worked the first time.
In that sense, modern laundry is no longer just a utility. It is a reflection of how a home performs behind the scenes, and whether it lives up to the expectations set by everything else.
Because at this level, luxury is not just what you see.
It is what you don’t have to think about.
