Say hello to the Oaklyn facade—a fresh face for double-storey design
Some facades fade into the street. The Oaklyn holds its own.
This latest double-storey addition to Homebuyers Centre’s facade range brings real architectural character to the street, defined by two hero features – a stepped brick pillar that frames the entry like a vertical spine, and a gallery-style corner window that pulls in morning light and neighbourhood views.
Why does the Oaklyn stands out
The Oaklyn has been created to give first-home buyers something special – presence with longevity. The stepped brickwork introduces intrigue, casting shadows across the day, while the corner window softens the look and floods the front lounge space with natural light.
Combined together, the elements create a cohesive light-to-dark gradient from roof to ground, making the upper level feel lighter while the base reads grounded and solid. It’s quiet confidence – with balanced proportions.
The Oaklyn facade’s wrap-around corner window leads the eye directly to the stepped brickwork, which showcases innovation and craftsmanship.

Designed from ideas, shaped by trends
The brief for the Oaklyn was simple: add architectural interest to a double-storey form without adding complexity.
The outcome is a facade that feels considered, forward-looking and attainable – and it now sits alongside a family of options crafted with the same intent. If you’re comparing looks and levels of street presence, explore the full facade range to see where Oaklyn fits.
Style it your way with the Colour Collection
Oaklyn is available across all six Colour Collection palettes, so the mood can swing from soft and classic to bold and contemporary.
Think Classic for balanced, timeless styling; Modern for sleek layers; Coastal for breezy neutrals and sea-washed hues; Adriatic for sun-soaked, Mediterranean simplicity; Botanical for earthy tones and organic textures; and Industrial for darker tones and raw, urban finishes.
If you’re weighing up looks and lifestyle fit, discover the full Colour Collection and see how each palette can shape Oaklyn’s street presence and interior feel.
My personal favourite is the Modern palette. We’ve selected some incredible bricks across all palettes, and Oaklyn really celebrates their colour and texture.
Who is the Oaklyn for?
If you’re chasing a double-storey that feels a touch more architectural without shouting about it, Oaklyn’s your lane. It suits families who love the light, design-minded buyers who notice the smaller details, and first-home owners after a look that feels right now – and still right in ten years.
Oaklyn is innovative, sophisticated and versatile – a facade with polish, poise and plenty of personality.
