We've moved! Our Head office is located at 1 Peters Avenue, Mulgrave 3170
May 1st, 2024 brought one of largest changes to the National Construction Code (NCC) seen, aligned with significant updates to the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) 7 Star energy requirements for new home builds.
While these changes have made our homes more sustainable and liveable long-term, they have resulted in significant price increases across our range of homes.
Our team is here to guide you through the process and find the perfect new home for you.
To meet the new liveable housing guidelines we’ve redesigned our homes across all ranges.
It was a full overhaul of our designs and pricing structure to account for the added design elements, energy efficient features, and construction requirements mandated by the regulations.
While this allows us to create liveable, high-performance homes tailored to the new National Construction Code and 7 Star requirements, it also meant our previous floorplans will no longer be available as of the 1st of May.
Houses are given a star rating between 0 and 10. A higher star rating means the home temperature is more consistent and effectively more comfortable to live in, more efficient and affordable to run. Lower star ratings mean a home is more costly to keep comfortable and in turn less efficient and more expensive to run.
This results in high-performance and low-maintenance homes designed for maximum comfort, efficiency and long-term liveability.
To achieve the 7 star rating, all of our home design will include double-glazed windows and solar power as standard. This means your energy bills will be nice and low while doing great things for the environment, contributing to the goal of net-zero emissions by 2050.
Our redesigns are smarter and more sustainable homes that can adapt to your changing needs over time. The focus is on open layouts, wider doorways and hallways to allow occupants to move around easily, step-free entries, and bathrooms with more clearance space for children, elderly and anyone with mobility difficulties or temporary injury.
This results in high-performance and low-maintenance homes designed for maximum comfort, efficiency and long-term liveability.
