Designing Homes Around You
Great home design starts with your ideas. As experienced new home builders, we’re here to bring those ideas to life, creating a home that reflects how you live, what you value, and where you're headed.
Whether you’ve got a clear vision or want a little inspiration to get started, we’ll work with you to shape a new home that feels just right. You can choose from a range of ready-to-build plans or use them as a starting point to customise through our flexible Design + Build process.
As a trusted new home builder, we’re focused on making the journey feel easy, enjoyable, and tailored to you — not a one-size-fits-all approach.

Learn Why Our Clients Love Classic Builders

Kirsty & Tory Parr
‘It was such an easy process for us. Paul, Chris, Corina and Talia were amazing at communicating. ‘Classics was just a great decision… we got excited to see what we could actually do and personalise ourselves rather than buying an existing home. I can’t believe we live in this beautiful house… we feel so lucky; we made the right decision. We managed to get the home we dreamed of without bursting the budget.’

Nelly Gray
"If you can do a new build, it’s a no-brainer, so all you have to do is move in and mow the lawn. Older houses will need some maintenance and repairs. With my lifestyle, I don’t want to give up my weekends doing DIY, so it’s great for me. Everything is finished, and everything works!"

Aaron & Louise Howe
"We had great support behind us from start to finish. The time with the design consultant was invaluable. It was great getting their advice and expertise, and it provided reassurance that the colours would work.
The team allowed us the flexibility to build what we envisaged and offered advice and expertise along the way."
