FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Beachstone Homes’ Concept Design Package and Custom Home Builds
How does Beachstone Homes differ from a Mornington Peninsula architect?
Standalone architects often design without real-time construction data, leading to plans that exceed your budget. Our service integrates architectural design with live construction costs from the start. This prevents expensive redesigns and ensures your custom home is both beautiful and buildable.
What areas do you serve on the Mornington Peninsula?
We are local custom home builders specialising in the Mornington Peninsula and Melbourne’s Eastern suburbs. Our team has deep experience with local council regulations and site conditions in Mornington, Mount Martha, Sorrento, Portsea, and surrounding coastal areas.
Can you design for sloping or challenging sites?
Yes. While volume builders often avoid difficult terrain or require massive site cuts, we specialise in high-performance designs for sloping and challenging blocks. We focus on maximising your land’s unique views and natural topography while maintaining structural integrity.
How do I know my custom home will be energy efficient?
Sustainability is at the core of our design process. We incorporate double-glazed windows, high-performance insulation, and thermal orientation as standard. This ensures your home meets modern energy standards and remains comfortable throughout the Victorian seasons.
Do I have any input on the interior selections?
Absolutely. You will work with our expert interior designers through our comprehensive selection service. From custom cabinetry and lighting to smart home automation and high-end appliances, every detail is tailored to your lifestyle.
What is a concept design?
A concept design is the first step in the home design and build process, where we create a tailored design that aligns with both your vision and budget. By the end of this stage, you’ll have a clear understanding of your home’s layout, style, key specifications, and estimated cost before moving forward with detailed documentation and construction.
How is your concept design service different from working with an architect?
Unlike standalone architects, our concept design service integrates both design and construction expertise from the beginning. This ensures your home is not only beautifully designed but also practical to build and within your budget, eliminating costly redesigns and delays.
How is your concept design service different from working with a volume builder?
Volume builders typically offer pre-designed homes with limited customisation options. They often don’t allow for tricky site conditions, sloping blocks, view aspects. Often only a 2-dimentional street facing façade is provided, rather than a 360-degree whole of home design.
What is included in the concept design process?
Our concept design service provides a comprehensive plan tailored to your needs. It includes:
A detailed consultation to understand your vision, lifestyle, and budget.
A site inspection to assess the land, views, and surrounding environment.
Custom floor plans and exterior elevations uniquely designed to suit your site, lifestyle, and vision.
3D schematic designs to help visualise the final outcome.
A detailed build specification outlining quality fixtures and finishes.
Preliminary cost estimates and expert value management advice to keep your project on budget.
Are there any additional costs?
Our concept design fee includes all the services outlined in the proposal. Before starting, we’ll need a re-establishment survey of your site to ensure all requirements are considered. If you don’t have one, we can provide a separate price for this survey.
How much does a custom home cost?
As a rough guide, our custom homes typically start from $25k per square metre. The final price can vary based on factors such as size, design complexity, materials, and site conditions. During the initial Concept Design Consultation, we will work with you to establish a build budget and then tailor the design to balance size, complexity, and finishes, ensuring the final design stays within your budget.
How long does the concept design process take?
Typically, our concept design process takes 6-8 weeks, depending on the complexity of the project and any revisions required.
What if I require town planning approval?
If town planning approval is needed, we’ll guide you through the entire process. We will prepare the necessary design documentation and connect you with a local town planning consultant, who you can work directly with to manage the application. Throughout this process, we’ll be available to provide further design advice and make any amendments needed.
Do you have any pre-designed homes?
We specialise in fully custom homes, but we do have a portfolio of past designs that can be used as inspiration. If you’re looking for a quicker design process, we have a few pre-designed packages that suit all site conditions.
Can I make changes to the design?
Absolutely. We collaborate closely with you to refine the design based on your feedback, ensuring it meets your expectations before proceeding to the next stage.
Will I receive an estimate of build costs with the concept design?
Yes, we provide upfront cost estimates and value management advice to ensure your design aligns with your budget before progressing further.
What happens after the concept design is finalised?
Once the concept design is approved, we move into the next phase, which includes detailed construction drawings, permits, and material selections, leading seamlessly into the build process.
Can I take my concept design to another builder?
Our concept designs are developed specifically for our design and build process. However, if you wish to take the design elsewhere, additional fees may apply to release the design documentation.
How do I get started?
Simply contact us to book an initial consultation. We’ll discuss your vision, budget, and site specifics to start crafting your custom concept design.
