The result was announced at the 2025 HIA Riverina Housing and Kitchen & Bathroom Awards in front of an audience of Riverina’s leading residential builders, designers and manufacturers at The Wild Vine winery in Oura.
HIA ACT & Southern NSW Executive Director Geordan Murray said, "What a way to close the evening—with Nero taking out one of the night’s top honours. This home is bold, refined, and truly unforgettable. Built into a steep hillside, it’s a masterclass in architectural innovation, blending raw concrete and charred timber with elegance and purpose. Our judges were blown away by its seamless open-plan living, energy-efficient design, and the way it balances drama with liveability. It’s a standout example of how great design can rise to meet even the toughest challenges."
The 2025 HIA Riverina Home of the Year is partnered by the Wagga Wagga City Council.
“This is a great example of the remarkable quality and workmanship available in the Riverina region and is a true credit to Lancaster Homes,” said Mr Murray.
HIA recognised further outstanding projects and businesses on the night:
“We’re extremely proud of the work being produced by HIA members and congratulate all the winners and finalists,” concluded Geordan Murray.
October marks the beginning of National Safe Work Month – a time for us all to pause, reflect, and reinforce our commitment to creating a safe and healthy workplace for everyone,” said HIA Hunter Executive Director Craig Jennion.
