Custom Home Builder Greater Geelong

We’ve been building homes across Greater Geelong for decades, from small rural communities and quiet subdivisions to expansive semi-rural blocks surrounded by open farmland. These areas offer something unique: fewer design restrictions, larger blocks, and the kind of space that lets you design a home around the way you want to live.

We build in a range of locations throughout Greater Geelong, including Batesford, Inverleigh, Anakie, Lovely Banks, Bannockburn, Teesdale, and Barrabool. Larger blocks allow for generous footprints, outdoor entertaining spaces, pools, or even a separate studio or shed. Many of the homes we design in these locations lean toward country-inspired or modern country aesthetics, but every project is tailored to you.

While these sites offer greater freedom in how your home can be designed, they also come with important factors that need to be considered from the outset. Unlike standard residential blocks, larger or semi-rural sites often require extra planning for things like soil type, drainage, wind exposure, bushfire compliance, and access to off-grid or limited services. Our team understands the unique demands of building in these environments and brings the right expertise to guide your project every step of the way.

Across Greater Geelong, we design and build custom architectural homes that reflect both the people who live in them and the land they’re built on. Whether you’re planning a sustainable home, a knockdown rebuild, or working with a sloping site, we’ll guide you through a tailored process that brings your ideas to life.
