Building your Forever Home in Tasmania

Tasmania is a builder’s dream and a challenge in equal measure — a cool-temperate climate, dramatic and varied sites, and a community that values quality and craftsmanship. As Tasmania’s National Award-Winning Forever Home Builders, we build the length and breadth of the state.

From heritage-sensitive city blocks in Hobart and Launceston to exposed coastal sites on the east and north-west, our Passivhaus expertise and considered process deliver homes that perform beautifully in the Tasmanian climate and last for generations.

Thirty completed projects, all four corners

The record is on this site, region by region. In the North, seventeen projects around our Launceston home base — including the director’s own award-winning homes. In the South, a certified Passivhaus in Hobart alongside builds from Sandy Bay to Margate, and two homes under construction on Bruny Island. On the East Coast, four completed projects from St Helens to Coles Bay. On the North-West, Hawley at Hawley Beach. Explore them by region: Launceston · Hobart · East Coast · Port Sorell.
