Custom Home Builder Bellarine Peninsula

As a trusted custom home builder on the Bellarine Peninsula, we’ve been designing and building homes in Ocean Grove, Point Lonsdale, Barwon Heads, Portarlington and surrounding areas for decades. We work closely with our clients to create homes that reflect how they want to live, both now and into the future. Whether you’re upsizing, downsizing, relocating or rebuilding, we’ll help you design a home that’s beautiful, functional and uniquely yours.

Designing for the Way You Live

Building on the Bellarine comes with its own set of practical considerations, from ocean breezes and sun exposure to privacy, orientation and capturing views. Some areas have local overlays in place to protect the character of the neighbourhood, which can affect building height, material selections and how your home presents to the street. We take all of this into account, but most importantly, we design homes that work for you. That means creating spaces that flow effortlessly, prioritising comfort and functionality, and including the features that make everyday life easier and more enjoyable.

Our team also looks at the technical side of building, including wind ratings, bushfire zones, soil conditions and structural requirements. This ensures your home is not only beautifully designed but built to last. It’s a fully considered approach, tailored to your block and your brief.

Your Home, Your Style

Across the Bellarine, we design homes that are as individual as the people who live in them. Some are modern and low-maintenance with open-plan living and clean lines. Others embrace natural textures or a more coastal or country-style aesthetic. Whether you’re building on a sloping block, planning a knockdown rebuild, or starting fresh on a new parcel of land, we’ll guide you through a collaborative design and build process that brings your vision to life.
