If your block has a slope or elevation changes, building a standard home may not be practical. However, a split-level home can take advantage of your land’s natural contours, creating a functional, spacious, and architecturally stunning home.
How to Get Started
Step 1: Site Inspection & Design Consultation
A site assessment will determine the best home layout, factoring in:
- Elevation & slope direction
- Natural light & ventilation
- Council requirements & land restrictions
Step 2: Choosing the Right Design
Split-level homes work with the slope rather than against it, with features such as:
✅ Multi-Level Living – Staggered floor levels designed to suit the land’s contours
✅ Reversed Living Layouts – Living areas positioned upstairs to maximise views and light
✅ Integrated Outdoor Spaces – Seamless alfresco areas and tiered landscaping
