Turn one of our house plans into one of yours.

Everything you want in a house without the stress

Building a brand-new home from scratch can be overwhelming, but we’re here to help! Our expertly designed plans are the perfect launchpad to make your dream a reality. With a variety of incredible house styles to start from, you can get started quickly without sacrificing quality or creativity. Here’s how designing a home off an existing plan ticks all the boxes:

1. Use our proven designs as a launchpad

Starting from scratch, it’s easy to feel lost in the vast sea of design possibilities. But all too often when you look at existing plans on builders’ websites it all feels underwhelming and samey samey. A better way can be to start with one of our existing designs and customise it to your liking.  An existing plan can give you a great starting point, we’ve already spent a lot of time getting the basics of the design right so you don’t need worry about that, now you can focus on customising it to your liking. Not only does this make the whole process much more manageable, but it also guarantees you a home that’s uniquely yours.

2. Narrow your architectural style

Explore our variety of house styles and choose one that speaks to you. Whether you love the classic look of a traditional home, the sleek lines of modern living, or something in-between, you’ll find the perfect plan to match your taste. Once you know the style you want, you can consider the changes and additions you’d like. Maybe you want to add a cosy fireplace to the living room or an expansive deck to take advantage of your scenic views. It’s all possible. It’s a great way to get everyone on the same page from the start.

3. Try before you buy

Don’t just imagine it – experience your new home for yourself. Whether it’s photos, virtual tours or a visit to one of our show homes, you’ll have every opportunity to see real-life examples of the homes you can choose from. You’ll notice all the design details, quality materials and work skills and how they enhance the overall feel. But ultimately, seeing these plans in action will allow you to make decisions about your home design that are more likely to stand the test of time.

4. Push the boat out a bit

With an existing plan, you’ll have an idea of the home’s layout, size and overall structure, but what if you want to step outside that a little, or maybe a big bit?. Not a problem. Whether just adding an extra bedroom, expanding the kitchen, or putting in a triple bay garage and workshop, it’s easy to tweak and adjust the design with our help. Our clients find it incredibly liberating to start with a solid foundation and have fun with customisation.  

5. Save time in design

With our existing plans, you’re not starting from scratch so we can usually move through the design process faster than you would if you started with a blank piece of paper. But don’t worry it won’t mean we have to compromise in terms of quality.  Take advantage of our expertise

When you choose to work with us, you benefit from years of experience. We can give you clever design ideas based on similar projects and practical solutions that save time and money. We’ll focus on understanding your needs to help you build something that truly reflects your vision.
