Single Storey Homes FAQ
Here are answers to the most common questions about building a single-storey home with us.
It all starts with a conversation. We begin by getting to know your goals, your block and how you want to live. From there, our team guides you through each stage, design, council approvals, selections and the build itself. You will have a dedicated point of contact throughout the process, so you always know what is happening and what comes next. Our approach is collaborative, transparent and designed to make your journey as smooth as possible. We tailor every single-storey home design to suit your lifestyle and block, giving you a truly personalised building experience.
Single-storey homes offer effortless living with everything on one level. They are easier to navigate, safer for families with young children or elderly relatives, and provide seamless access to outdoor areas. Single-storey house designs are also more cost-effective to build and maintain, with simpler construction and lower ongoing costs. They suit a wide range of blocks, particularly larger or wider sites, and offer timeless appeal that works for any stage of life. Our single-storey home builders specialise in creating layouts that maximise space, light and connection to the outdoors.
Absolutely. Single-storey homes are ideal for larger or wider blocks, allowing you to spread out and create generous living spaces, multiple outdoor zones and room to grow. We design single-storey home plans that take full advantage of your block's size and orientation, maximising natural light, views and privacy. Whether you want a sprawling family home, separate wings for guests, or expansive alfresco areas, a single-storey design gives you the flexibility to create a home that truly reflects your lifestyle.
Yes, that is the beauty of a custom build. We will work with you to plan the ideal layout for your lifestyle. Whether you prefer open-plan living that flows to outdoor entertaining areas, a private master suite separated from kids' bedrooms, or a home office with its own entry, the layout is designed around how you live. All of our single-storey house designs are flexible and tailored to suit your needs, both now and into the future.
The options are wide open. Many clients choose features like stone benchtops, freestanding bathtubs, custom cabinetry, walk-in robes and premium appliances. We also offer a range of designer tapware, lighting and smart home upgrades. During the design process, we will walk you through all your options so your home feels uniquely yours. Our single-storey home designs can be tailored to include the luxury features and indoor-outdoor living elements that matter most to you.
That depends on a few factors, including your block, the size and complexity of your design, and the level of inclusions you choose. As a custom home builder
, we provide tailored quotes based on your specific needs. What we can promise is complete transparency, no hidden fees, no surprises. You will know exactly where your investment is going, and we will ensure your single-storey home design is aligned with your budget and lifestyle.
While single-storey homes work best on wider blocks, we can still create functional and stylish single-storey house designs for narrower sites. The key is smart planning, maximising natural light, creating visual flow, and designing rooms that serve multiple purposes. Our single-storey home builders will assess your block and work with you to determine whether a single-storey or two-storey design is the better fit for your needs and site conditions. For larger blocks or those seeking maximum space, we also offer three-storey home designs.
Yes, one of the advantages of single-storey living is the flexibility to expand. Whether you want to add a granny flat, extend your living areas, or create a new alfresco zone, single-storey homes make future additions easier and more cost-effective. During the design phase, we can plan for potential extensions so your home can grow with you over time. Our single-storey home designs are built with longevity and adaptability in mind.
