Holly Komorowski - Local Real Estate Agent Review Detail

Holly, Tenille and Lalita were great to work with selling our home, smashing my stereotypes of real estate agents! Highlights included the clear, thoughtful and ongoing communication to create a smooth process with so much hard work behind the scenes to get the house on the market in just over a week and sell in a challenging market. Recommended!

It was great working with Holly, Tenille and all HBH team. The process was very clearly laid out and the contacts Holly provided to assist in the preparation for sale were outstanding. We achieved a good result in a difficult market.

Professional, honest, reliable and empathetic to the huge task of moving interstate.

We had a horrid time with another agent.  We rang Holly who immediately took over the sale of our home.  Holly and her team provided us with a professional and honest service completely focussed on selling our home.  She made the sale process easy.  We highly recommend her as the agent of choice in the North.

Holly and her team were fantastic. So sensitive, helpful and efficient. Selling a long held family home is a big deal and they really made it as easy as could be.

Fantastic to work with Holly and her amazing team. Incredibly responsive, great communication, went out of their way when I needed specific assistance and made the process very easy. Thank you!!

Great communicators. We live interstate and they efficiently and without fuss helped to get our place ready for sale. The whole experience of selling was made easy and we were very happy with the price we got.

Holly and her team were fantastic, and we were thrilled with the results.  They were a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend Home by Holly!  Thanks team.

It's been a smooth journey in the recent sale of my place having Holly's team as the sales agent. Their team provided me with effective and timely communication throughout the process and useful advice when needed: Right from the first day of engaging their service, they provided me a clear picture of what to expect and the timeline for moving things ahead. They were patient with my questions and always able to respond to my emails within a few hours. They were also quick in finding solutions when things do not go as planned, e.g., the cleaning company had their steam cleaner broken hence needed to engage another carpet cleaning company with a very short turnaround time, which they acted on swiftly while keeping me informed.

It was a pleasure working with Holly and her team to sell our home. Holly and the team were professional, thoughtful and honest throughout the process. The team is passionate about Canberra and connecting people to homes. A rare quality amongst her peers and we would recommend the team to anyone looking for an agent.

Holly and her team were incredibly helpful and warm, and made the daunting task of selling a house much less overwhelming. The team are available whenever you have a question and provide solutions quickly. We went to auction which was a new experience for us, but Holly navigated us through the process with her expertise and we achieved the outcome we wanted. We are so impressed we have advised a family member to engage Holly's services for their house sale next year.

The team at Home by Holly were fantastic to deal with. The level of communication they provided made me feel confident and up to date with what was happening. They dealt with all the small details which made the process for me so simple.

My wife and I came across Holly while we were looking for a property in the inner north of Canberra. Holly had several properties which she showed to us even organising private inspections on a couple of occasions. We found Holly to be the consummate professional who assisted us with all our enquiries and communications with the vendors. She did a great job for her clients with her friendly and encouraging manner. i would strongly recommend Holly to anyone considering selling their house.

This is our third successful sale with HomebyHolly and we had a great experience. Holly and her team are creative in their approach, well informed, punctual, friendly and responsive. Their marketing is superior to other local agents and attracted buyers out of the area. We are very happy with the price we achieved and how Holly and her team worked with us.

Holly and her team are absolutely brilliant. Unceasingly professional and courteous with great advice and customer service. They also deliver excellent results. We couldn't have asked for anything more. Highly recommend!

Holly and her team are efficient, responsive, pragmatic and warm. Every aspect of the sale of my home was reassuringly smooth and stress-free. I could not have been in better hands!

Holly and Emily did an excellent job in selling our Braddon Heritage property in an uncertain market. 

Holly was professional, knowledgeable, enthusiastic and supportive throughout the process. We would highly recommend Holly and her team.

Holly and her team were fantastic. Professional, efficient and had a clear understanding of the market.

But simply you can’t do better than Holly and her team. In a market that feels like it’s changing week to week, you need someone who knows how to appeal to buyers and who can give advice, right when you need it. Holly kept me informed and made what could have been a stressful experience easy and manageable.

Holly and her team were professional, efficient and effective. Holly had a very professional approach, and was kind and honest in her communications. She kept us really well informed about the progress of our sale, and gave realistic and strategic advice when we got closer to the final negotiations at a time when the market was slowing. I was very grateful to have her experience and calm approach to help us navigate our sale.

Holly and her team were great! Trustworthy, knowledgeable and easy to work with. We appreciated their attention to detail and highly recommended the HBH team!

Holly and her team are exceptional operators - professional, thorough and responsive. Their ability to build rapport with prospective clients and communicate clearly is definitely their strength. The reason I went with them was how much they stood out when I bought a property off them a few years ago. They are a real standout given they are down to earth, knowledgeable, thorough, reasonable, not pushy at all. You don’t feel like you are selling a house but rather a client working on a project.

Slling my home with Holly was a very pleasant experience.  Holly is professional, caring and friendly and has a great knowledge of the market.  Holly made me feel relaxed and comfortable that she would achieve a good outcome, and she did.

Loved working with Holly and her team. Low on ego and high on integrity and efficiency. A refreshing change!

Our experience with Holly was positive, professional and effeicient as well as very pleasant. All commitments were met in a timely manner and graciously, even though the sale took longer than we anticipated.  Holly managed our expectations when there was a change in market conditions, but always made us feel we were in charge of the process.  
There was ongoing communication and feedback from Holly and her colleagues and they were always respnsive to our requests and queries.
Deciding to move house can be a daunting  experience, so we really appreciated that the sale itself  was managed so smoothly.
We would recommend Home by Holly to others who are selling their property.

A delight to deal with.  Listened to and understood my requirements and met them to a "T". Professional, responsive and fun to work with.

Holly proved to be very skilful, professional and trustworthy during the sale of our property and was backed up  by a great team. Would not hesitate to  
recommend her and her team to any future vendors

Holly and the whole team were a delight to work with, and made selling our unit a breeze. They had such great insights on the local area and did their research on comparable properties in the area so they were able to pitch the property to show all its best features.

It was a pleasure working with Holly to sell our home. Her professionalism, dedication and authenticity got us not only a great result but ensured we felt involved and listened to through the process. I have long admired Holly’s marketing and was not disappointed. Her styling partners, photographers and advice made all the difference. Would highly recommend.

Holly is a breath of fresh air in the real estate business. She brings a personal touch to the whole experience, being professional and prompt. As a buyer, I have been to many property inspections, met many real estate agents that are pushy & insincere but not Holly. I would recommend Holly and her team to others.

Holly and her team were organised, helpful and on the ball. They knew the market, delivered great marketing material and kept me up to date on progress throughout the sale. Highly recommended

We have recently sold our second property with Holly. We have also attended several properties listed with Holly while in the market. The reason we listed our first property with Holly is after meeting her at an open home she was friendly, welcoming and professional. Holly has a beautiful attitude and is extremely personable, she is set apart from other Real Estate firms as she is down to earth, genuine and humble. Since listing with her for a second time she has again exceeded our expectations.

We found the whole process stress free. Holly was open and honest the whole way through the process. We really do highly recommend Home by Holly.

Holly & her team have successfully marketed, auctioned and settled a 3 bedroom penthouse apartment in Reid for our business in 2021. 

Their advice, guidance and marketing campaign was exceptional and as a result we achieved an amazing price. 

We have gone on to engage Home.byHolly to sell several more properties, as they are an absolute pleasure to work with.

Holly made selling our property an easy & stress free experience. Holly & her team were very professional & friendly throughout the whole process, we were kept informed with everything along the way & were very happy with the end result. Thank you Holly!

Holly and her team are terrific. We have bought, sold and rented with the Home by Holly team. Our experience over many years with Holly and the team has been excellent. They are genuine and down to earth and bring a strong community sense  and expertise in the Canberra market to all that they do.  Would seek them out to work with them again.

Selling a long held family home was turned into a wonderful experience by Holly and her exceptional team of Tenille and Bianca, and all other support staff. From the beginning I knew I was dealing with a professional, knowledgeable and ethical group. And they were fun! Everything, including various costs and commission, was clearly explained. I wanted a quick campaign and Holly put together an excellent program and continued to respond to my many questions throughout. A timeline was agreed, photographs organised, building inspection arranged and constant updates and reports were provided after each open house viewing. An auctioneer was engaged and the house was sold on the day for a very satisfactory amount. The whole process went without a hitch and this agency was a joy to work with. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Many thanks.

Advice received made this a great, trouble free process, with an excellent result. The home.by holly team (led by Holly and Bianca) help ensure the property was very visible in the market; their deep experience in the O'Connor market was clearly displayed.

I thoroughly recommend the amazing team at Home by Holly. They made the whole sales process effortless and the outcome far exceeded expectations. The exceptional support team kept me updated throughout the process and answered all my questions with lightening speed. Their professionalism, integrity, and expertise is second to none. I would not hesitate to call on the Home by Holly team in the future, as a buyer or a seller.

Tenille Paul

Anchored in the past and the storied charm of Ainslie, this lovely Tocumwal rests within picturesque gardens. Designed by award-winning architect Nino Bellantonio, this reimagined five-bedroom home seamlessly blends heritage character with modern refinement. Wonderfully positioned at the foothills of Mt Ainslie, it is just moments from the much-loved Ainslie shops and local primary school, with the vibrant Braddon and Dickson precincts and the CBD also close by.

The instantly recognisable form - weatherboard and fibro, pitched roof and deep front veranda -paints an idyllic picture, a sweet reminder of the past. Famously relocated from army bases during the 1940's, the Canberra Tocumwal's are a significant and celebrated part of the inner urban architectural landscape. 

Key historical elements have been preserved: lofty ceiling heights, intricate baton detailing, picture rails, casement windows. A restraint of tone and materiality - crisp white walls, honeyed timber windows and doors - results in an elegant simplicity, a calming stage for art and life. New Cypress pine flooring has been laid in keeping with the original history. The floorplan has been cleverly re-configured, gifting five spacious bedrooms and an effortless flow that feels continuous and easy. Living areas are orientated to attract the warmth and light with sliding walls of glass opening to both north and east, framing mountain views. The deep wrap around veranda overlooks exquisitely planted gardens, soft lawns, sunny alfresco dining area.

Concordant threads of deep blues, rich timber characterise the modern kitchen and family bathroom. Original casement windows capture romantic garden views within the generous sized master bedroom…flowing to ensuite with wash of ocean green tiling. Three large bedrooms all capture landscape via banks of timber windows. Currently utilised as ideal home office, the charming fifth bedroom communes with the comings and goings of the street and captures the magisterial form of Mt Ainslie.

This lovely three-bedder sits across from open fields and is edged by natural Reserve, surrounded by mountains. Open plan living flows to a sheltered deck that overlooks a garden brimming with fruit trees. And within there is a feeling of simple peace, as if a little bit of the countryside has permeated the balance of spaces. Perhaps it's the paired back palette or the thoughtful touches – papered wall, pops of timber and big windows that capture the sunlight.

Helby is a quiet street that sits across from Nadjung Mada Nature Reserve and green commons with pathways for walking that link to parklands and wetlands. Harrison literally surrounded by open green spaces so you can explore, nature bath and exercise freely. The home is handy to the shops and restaurants of the Harrison/Franklin shopping hub and it is a short walk to Well Station Drive, light rail stop. It is an easy stroll to Shirley Smith High School, not far to the thriving Gungahlin precinct, and an easy commute to the buzzing inner-north and the CBD.

The home is one of three neat builds, all crisply mortared dark brick, pitched roof and sheltered front porch. A Japanese maple graces the front lawn, the entry pathway edged by purple flowering agapanthus and colourful nandina. While to the left, a driveway ushers to a single garage with the convenience of internal access.

Light filters through a timber sidelight, illuminating the midnight black feature wall that modernises the foyer and engenders a dramatic entryway into the master bedroom. There is the delight of contrasting light, the master a study in calming white with a large window that floats the drama of the mountains within. A papered wall introduces the delicate pink hues of quartz terrazzo and a walk-in-robe keeps things soothingly minimal. And there is an easy flow to a simply appointed and neutral, two-way bathroom with a relaxing bathtub and separate toilet – all conveniently accessed via the social hub.

We love the way the clever plan places a duo of bedrooms on each side of the social arena. This way everybody enjoys a nice seclusion…both additional bedrooms with built-in-robes and big windows that welcome northern light. Throw in a seamless European laundry and sustainable upgrades – heat pump hot water, solar array and battery and you have easy-care living with reduced energy costs. Seeded in picturesque surroundings, whisper close to all the enticements of the city.

Large format floor tiling in warm taupe is organic underfoot, the open plan kitchen, dining and living, opening to embrace the northern garden and deck. The kitchen housed in one corner, all light timber tones with a soft brown tiled splashback, echoing the floor. There is lots of storage including a nice tall pantry and chic stainless-steel appliances including a dishwasher. Think comfy lounging, easy family meals, a natural togetherness. Think whole summers spent outdoors, enjoying time with family and friends beneath the shelter of the pergola, surrounded by an orchard of trees.


Your life in Harrison :
Walking the pathways that connect to various scenic wetlands, parks, ovals and Reserves. Working out at your choice of gyms or getting active at the nearby half basketball court or District Playing Fields
Exploring the plethora of shops and restaurants at the nearby Gungahlin precinct with the Cornerstone Café and Bar, a local favourite. Or popping down to the local supermarket for essentials, wandering to Franklin shops for a shop at Woollies or the Asian Grocer, perhaps indulging in a treat from Meadows Frozen Custard or grabbing a caffeine hit from the Coffee Guru. It is also not far to several restaurants on Flemington Road including the fab Thai Herb.
Staying connected via bus and light rail, with arterial roads making it a mere 17 minutes to the CBD by car.

There is a lovely depth and cohesion, as long spaces unfold each to each, culminating in an outdoor room, sparkling swimming pool. Organic notes sing against a background of layered greenery and there is a capture of dappling light on white walls, a freedom of high ceilings, airy voids. The double storey plan honouring family life, doubling down on connection and repose and delivering the quintessential indoor outdoor lifestyle. 

This wonderful four-bedroom home sits across from parkland and drinks in tranquil water views. The two-storey form, rising handsomely from curated gardens that envelope and hold. Tree ferns flourish beneath the shading arms of Japanese Maples and clipped box hedging edge pathways. The tones and texture of hand placed stacked stone, reaching skyward, vivid against a combo of blue greys, a pop of orange. While stacked clerestory windows add intrigue, hinting at the luminous joy within.

Spotted gum timber floors flow golden underfoot, the duo of social arenas welcoming a blessing of north-eastern light. A gorgeous front living combined formal dining room lends itself to comfy moments around the fireplace, romantic dinner parties or moments to self, reading in the sunshine. While the airy family hub is all walls of glass, framing a stand of cumquats, swimming pool edged by an avenue of conifers. Glass sliders can be flung open, extending the space to the outdoor kitchen, perfect for entertaining, poolside. 

A central island gifts relaxed seating for family and friends, the generous kitchen all white on white with stone worktops, integrated appliances. The whole home packed with storage from the walk-in-pantry to the under stair cabinetry and the large walk-in-storage bay within the laundry, with its delicate pink marbled floors. And we love the way the home delivers plenty of serene nooks – sunny window seat overlooking a stand of white roses, patios beneath vine twined arbours. Even the dog door is private, tucked away with the laundry with garden access, mosaic tiled pathway and French canopy! 

The master suite perfectly secluded downstairs, opening to a sea of hydrangeas. There is walk-in-robe and a beautiful ensuite, all grey marbled floors, pop of silver mosaics, bathed in the soft light of a skylight. Double basins, bespoke vanity and endless mirrored cabinetry keep things seamless and there is a roomy, walk-in-shower.

Upstairs a duo of bedrooms look out to the meandering green commons and both have built-in-robes. The third room is double sized and could easily be divided into two spaces – home office and fourth bedroom. As it stands it makes for a roomy kid's hang or office combined guest room, with its pocket doors opening onto the generous landing. There is a separate powder room and a gorgeous family bathroom, all earthy marble and white tiles, with a spa bath that drinks in long views across to the wetlands. 

This fabulous locale gives you ready access to walking trails that traverse a tree dotted green sanctuary, connecting to several ponds, all the way to the endless expanse of Mulangarri Grasslands Nature Reserve. Think stepping across the road to ponds and endless walking, with plenty of nearby playgrounds and sporting fields. It is an easy stroll to several restaurants on Flemington Road including the fab Thai Herb and not far to the plethora of shops and restaurants at the Gungahlin precinct. Franklin shops are handy for grabbing a coffee or shopping at Woollies or the Asian Grocer. The home is also handy to the bus and light rail, with arterial roads making it a mere 23 minutes to the CBD by car.
