Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to build a custom home?

Every Verdé residence is entirely bespoke, with investment varying according to your vision, site conditions, and the level of design complexity. During a private consultation at our Hawthorn design studio or a visit to our Deepdene display home, we offer transparent guidance and a realistic estimate that considers the full scope of your project — not just the base build.

At Verdé, we devote significant time to the design and documentation process, ensuring the outcome is not only beautiful but also intelligently planned. Our construction standards go well beyond compliance, reducing long-term maintenance while delivering a residence of enduring quality.

This commitment places Verdé among Melbourne’s higher-priced design-led luxury builders — a natural fit for clients who value a seamless and enjoyable journey, and who appreciate that true craftsmanship, premium artisanship, and uncompromising attention to detail come at a level above the average custom home builder.

The timeline for building a bespoke Verdé luxury home varies with each project. On average, our luxury homes require 4–6 months for the design and documentation stage and 10–18 months for construction, depending on the size, style, and level of detail. This ensures every home is crafted with precision, quality, and enduring sophistication.

A custom home is designed exclusively for you — tailored to your block, lifestyle, and vision — offering complete personalisation in layout, finishes, and features. By contrast, a project home is based on a pre-designed plan with only limited modification options, making it less flexible and less unique.

With Verdé, every residence is a bespoke design-led home, crafted to reflect your individuality and built to the highest standard of luxury.

In many cases, yes. A knock down rebuild can be more cost-effective than purchasing a new property — particularly in established areas where land values are high and additional costs such as stamp duty and taxes apply. This approach allows you to keep the location you love while creating a brand-new, bespoke home designed for your lifestyle, without compromising on design, craftsmanship, or modern efficiency.

Custom home building typically requires a building permit, supported by a series of mandatory inspections to ensure compliance with all regulations and safety standards. In some cases, a council planning permit may also be required — for example, where site overlays apply, or when developing on smaller lots or multi-dwelling projects.

At Verdé, we manage this entire process in-house — from preparing documentation to liaising with council and securing approvals. This ensures your journey remains seamless, transparent, and stress-free, with the confidence of knowing every requirement is handled by experts.

In many cases, a knock down rebuild offers greater value than an extensive renovation — particularly when major structural changes are required. While the upfront investment may be higher, rebuilding eliminates the hidden costs and uncertainties that often arise during renovations.

With a rebuild, you gain a brand-new residence designed exactly to your lifestyle, complete with modern systems, energy efficiency, and full warranties — benefits renovations simply cannot match.

A fixed-price contract is also known as a lump sum contract, and is where your build is agreed to cost a fixed amount. The builder takes on the majority of risk for cost increases in materials and labour during construction.  A cost-plus contract is where your builder is paid for the price of labour and materials, plus a percentage for overhead and profit. You take on the risk for price increases in materials and labour yourself.

Absolutely. At Verdé, we see potential where others see challenge. Our team specialises in transforming sloping and complex sites into elegant, bespoke residences that embrace the landscape and maximise views, natural light, and liveability.
