Crispin’s Projects
The following projects are either owned or have been developed by Crispins.
The Grove : Weston ACT
The Grove is a new prestige development offering sixty-one 2, 3, & 4 bedroom residences in a rare and secluded garden setting.
The Grove is influenced by classic Californian architecture - unusually wide residences focussing on natural light, including multiple options that cater for single level living. The interiors reference West Hollywood's iconic Chateau Marmont Hotel - warm palettes and soft tones. All within a beautiful garden setting.
The project brings together an internationally acclaimed design team. Architects, DNA, were recently awarded the National award for Townhouse Architect of the Year (Housing Industry Association). Interior Designer Fiona Lynch has won countless national and international awards including multi-time winner of the Belle Interior Designer of the Year (Nationally).
The Grove will be an iconic development that will not be repeated.
