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.
What is the difference between a custom home and a project home?
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.
How much does a knock down rebuild cost compared to renovation?
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.
What are the benefits of a knock down rebuild versus an extension?
A knock down rebuild gives you complete design freedom, modern energy efficiency, and the best possible use of your block — often for a similar to the final investment as an extension but with far greater results. Unlike extensions or renovations, which frequently face unforeseen structural issues that drive up costs and lock you into escalating alterations, a rebuild provides clarity and control.
With Verdé, your knock down rebuild is delivered under a fixed-price contract, giving you certainty on costs, confidence in timelines, and the assurance of a bespoke home designed and built to the highest standards.
What permits and approvals are needed for custom home building?
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.
