Building the perfect home on your own land If you are thinking about moving homes because your family is growing or you need more space, it could be the right time to think about building from scratch.

id you know that building a new home doesn’t mean it has to be in an already mapped-out subdivision? Generation Homes can tailor any of our 200 architecturally designed plans to suit your block and its location. When building new, you can choose a layout that fits your exact needs, and more importantly, your growing needs. If your family size is changing, you can even configure your house plan to suit. Generation Homes regional director David Skudder says, “More people are choosing to build new homes – that way they get exactly what they want”. Housing trends vary greatly across New Zealand, but the biggest factors influencing homeowners are budget and the size of your section. A successful house plan should meet the future needs of the homeowner. All our plans have the adaptability to include
variations that are unique to each individual homeowner. It’s common for us to take a three or four-bedroom plan and configure it to a customer’s needs and lifestyle. In New Zealand, a dual trend has emerged where people with large sections are opting for the ‘bigger is better’ approach, while smaller pocket developments are looking to maximize space and functionality. Large galley kitchens with sculleries, alfresco living and outdoor dining areas, double showers and extravagant walk-in wardrobes are taking precedence on larger lots, while smaller plans are making the most of open plan living. Northland is an ideal location to build a new home, with the area offering a wide range of
cultural, recreation and sporting facilities. This makes it the perfect destination for anyone chasing an active retirement or a healthy lifestyle to raise a family. We have show homes right across the region, including in Tikipunga and One Tree
Point. Part of our passion for home building is to ensure we are keeping up with the trends, and this means that we make sure our house plans move with the times. For example, our Pavilion Range – with seven different plans – has been designed with modernity and family living in mind. We also have a range of three to four-bedroom plans catering to smaller sections such as the Acacia plan or the Brookfield plan which focuses on open living space with perks such as a walk-in wardrobe and computer nook. Not only do you get exactly what you want in a new build with us – there are some extra perks. One of the most attractive advantages of building new is exactly that – it’s new! There are no historical problems or hidden surprises to worry about. You’ll also save big on energy costs. Today’s homes are far more energy efficient than homes built even as little as five years ago. Many new homes offer double or even triple-pane windows that save you energy and money when it comes to heating and cooling your home. The bottom line is that when you’re building a new home with us – you get exactly what you’ve always dreamed of.
