Designed Around Your Lifestyle & Budget
Building a new home in isn’t just about size or style—it’s about how the space will work for you every day. That’s why we spend time upfront helping you shape a design that balances how you live with what you want to spend. We’ll look at the block, the way you use your living areas, and the must-haves that matter to your routine. From open-plan kitchens to flexible guest zones or storage needs, every part of the layout is considered.
We also make it easy to see where costs can be adjusted without compromising on quality. You’ll be kept in the loop as the design evolves, so there are no surprises later. It’s about building something that works—not just on paper, but in real life.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I customise the floor plan of my new home?
Yes, most new home builds can be fully customised to suit your layout preferences, block size and lifestyle. You can work with an architect or designer to develop a unique plan or adapt an existing one. Customising allows you to make better use of natural light, improve flow, and plan for future needs like growing families or home office space.
What should I expect during the design phase of a new build?
During the design phase, you’ll discuss your goals, must-haves, and budget with a designer or builder. From there, a concept plan is developed, followed by detailed drawings. This stage includes selecting materials, fixtures and finishes, and reviewing structural and planning considerations. Clear communication early on can help avoid delays or rework later in the build.
How do I choose the right block of land for building?
Choosing the right block involves more than location. Consider the slope, soil condition, orientation to the sun, access for trades and proximity to services. Steep blocks or areas with drainage issues may increase site preparation costs. It's a good idea to involve a builder before purchasing, as they can help identify potential red flags and estimate site-related costs.
What documents or approvals do I need before construction can begin?
Before starting a new home build, you'll need several key documents in place. This typically includes a site plan, soil test, engineering drawings, and energy efficiency reports. A building approval or complying development certificate is also required before construction begins. Some projects may involve bushfire assessments or flood reports depending on location. Working with a builder early on can help ensure all requirements are identified and submitted on time.
