Custom Design & Build

Building your dream home is exciting, but we also realise it can be a little overwhelming. 

We can help take some weight off your shoulders and provide clarity on the entire process. See what steps are taken throughout your journey to a new home!

Our Build Process

If you want to build your dream home then a custom build from scratch is the best option. It gives you complete control over your home’s look and feel, allowing you to customise it to all your needs and wants based on your true budget.

A custom build home is the most expensive style of home to build due to it's unique design and multiple processes and parties to engage with. The construction time is also often longer.

The benefit of working with Jennian Homes is that we have a full in-house design and draughting team who can draw up your plans and work with you to design your dream home. Having this option means there is less chance of things being mis-communicated or forgotten; saving you time and money.

Our Design And Build Process

If you want a home design that requires less involvement on your part or you are not sure where to start with your design, customising one of our ready to build home plans to fit your site and needs is a great option. Our proven house plans are a great start to get some ideas on the design of your new home. You may even find one of our home plans to be exactly what you want. Our plans are also fully customisable, meaning you have the flexibility to build exactly what you want based on your lifestyle and budget.

The benefit of building from our proven home plans means we can project manage and oversee the entire build from the conceptual design, the structural aspects of your home, interior design and building consent right through to the home construction. This leaves you to do the exciting part like choosing colours, textures and fittings to suit your personal tastes

Our House Plans

If you don't have land and don’t have your heart set on a specific location, a house and land package can offer excellent value for money. A major benefit is they are managed for efficiency so don’t tend to blow out in costs or time. The entire process is also managed by us from start to finish - we will take care of the building side of things while you get to choose your colours and textures and add your personal touch.

Building from already consented plans means it’s easier for banks to estimate the value of the final product which is far more favourable when it comes to getting finance for the build.
