11 Rowe Place, Phillip ACT 2606

In the heart of Canberra's boldest architectural experiment sits a home that is just as brave. Swinger Hill was commissioned by the NCDC in the 1970s as a visionary prototype, testing the future of medium density living through innovative design and private garden courts. Today, 11 Rowe Place carries forward that legacy, reimagined for modern life with a kaleidoscope of colour, thoughtful renovation, and enduring functionality.

This tri-level home is a delightful contradiction. Playful and precise, vibrant yet grounded, stylish and smart. It is a modernist shell filled with joy. Think feature tiles, blue accents, bold lighting, sun-drenched living zones and intuitive indoor-outdoor flow. Like the homes it neighbours, this townhouse is deeply rooted in design principles that prioritise light, integration with nature, and timeless liveability.

Architectural intent is honoured and enhanced. From the landscaped courtyard lowered to create privacy from the road, to the use of large glass panes and Velux skylights that welcome sunshine deep into the space. The clever layering of form across levels gives a sense of spatial drama while remaining completely accessible for everyday life.

Swinger Hill's foundations were never just concrete and brick. They were ideas. Ideas about liveability, climate responsiveness, and connected community. 11 Rowe Place brings those ideas into a new chapter with warmth, style, and a whole lot of personality.
