• Investors

How much does it cost to build a new home?

Because no new home is the same, it’s hard for us to provide exact pricing without knowing more about the new home you’re looking for. Request a Free Design Consultation with us and we’ll quickly provide you with costings.

What do I need to consider when I plan my Dream Home?

• Here are some of the things you need to consider when building your new home:
• How many bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas will you need?
• Do you need a garage or will a carport be enough?
• Which room/s should be at the front of your new home as you walk through the entrance? Would you prefer to have the master bedroom, living area, or secondary bedroom/s at the front of your home?
• Do you like larger living areas, or bigger bedrooms?
• Do you need a bathtub, bigger vanities, or larger showers?
• Is an internal laundry required, or are you happy to have your laundry located in the garage?
• Do you need extra storage space?
• Would you like to have a workshop area in the garage?
• Will you have a boat, caravan, or trailer that you’ll need to keep secured on your property?
• How much covered outdoor space would you like?
• How much lawn area will you need?
• Does your kitchen need a larger pantry cabinet or even a walk-in pantry?
• Do you prefer the oven under the cooktop, or would you prefer a wall oven?
• Where will your microwave go? Will you put it under a bench, above your wall oven, or set it on a bench top?
• What kind of wardrobe space would you like in the bedrooms?
• Would you like to have a walk-in robe in the master bedroom?
• How about a swimming pool or a garden shed?
