Slope and site works
Split-level, elevated or suspended slab designs to suit the fall of the land and keep earthworks sensible.
Acreage home builder, Sunshine Coast
Acreage homes made for room to move
Based in Rosemount in the hinterland, we know rural blocks. From Eumundi to Maleny and the acreage pockets of Bli Bli, Palmwoods and Valdora, we design and build acreage homes that make the most of the views, the breezes and the space.
Built for rural sites
More space. More to get right.
An acreage block gives you freedom that a suburban lot never will: a wide, single-level home, a big shed, room for the pool and the kids. It also brings things a standard estate build does not, and they need to be planned from day one.
Sloping ground, reactive soils, long driveways, power and water connections, on-site wastewater, rainwater tanks and bushfire attack level (BAL) ratings all affect the design and the budget. We assess all of it before design starts, so there are no expensive surprises once you are committed.
Then we design the home to suit the land rather than flattening the land to suit a floor plan. That might mean a split-level design that steps down the slope, an elevated home with a deck looking over the valley, or a long pavilion layout that catches the north sun and the afternoon breeze.
Acreage expertise
What we plan for on rural blocks
Bushfire (BAL) ratings
Assessment and construction to the required bushfire attack level, with materials chosen to meet it.
Water and wastewater
Rainwater tanks, on-site wastewater treatment systems and stormwater planned into the design.
Orientation and views
Living areas positioned for northern light, cross-ventilation and the best outlook on the block.
Sheds, studios and pools
Detached garages, workshops, granny flats, pools and outdoor living designed as part of the whole site.
Access and services
Driveways, power and NBN connections and construction access planned before we price.
How it works
From first meeting to handover
One team, one point of contact and a clear process. You deal with the builder the whole way through.
01
Consultation and site visit
We meet you on the block, walk the site and talk through your brief, budget and timeframe. It is free and there is no obligation.
02
Design
We work with you, or with your architect or designer, to develop plans that suit the site, the budget and the way you live.
03
Fixed-price contract
Once the design is settled you receive a detailed, fixed-price building contract with clear inclusions, so there are no surprises later.
04
Selections
Choose finishes and fittings in stages through the build, with guidance from our team, rather than making every decision on day one.
05
Construction
Your dedicated project manager runs the site and our in-house trades, with regular updates and site meetings so you always know where things stand.
06
Handover
A thorough final inspection and walkthrough before you get the keys, with QBCC Home Warranty cover and ongoing support after you move in.
What clients say
Straight from our clients
“
Communication throughout the build was exceptional and the team were so easy to work with.
Do you build on sloping acreage blocks?
Yes. Sloping sites are common in the hinterland and we design for them with split-level, elevated or suspended slab construction, keeping cut and fill to a sensible level.
What is a BAL rating and does my block need one?
A bushfire attack level (BAL) rating measures a site's exposure to bushfire. If your block is in a bushfire prone area, the home must be built to the construction requirements for its BAL. We arrange the assessment and build to suit.
Can you organise the septic or wastewater system?
Yes. Unsewered blocks need an on-site wastewater treatment system designed for the site. We coordinate the site and soil assessment, design and installation as part of the build.
Which areas do you build acreage homes in?
Across the Sunshine Coast and hinterland, including Rosemount, Nambour, Eumundi, Yandina, Palmwoods, Woombye, Maleny, Montville, Mapleton, Bli Bli and Valdora.
