Perth’s luxury custom home builders
Your dream home starts with your vision; let us bring it to life with expert craftsmanship and personalised design.
With over six decades of experience as boutique builders in Perth, we bring refined craftsmanship and considered design to every project. From first consultation to final handover, our approach is grounded in collaboration, transparency, and an unwavering commitment to quality. Our custom homes are best suited to premium finishes and clients seeking an integrated, design-led building experience.
Custom home builds for every site and lifestyle
Whether you’re building on a sprawling block or a compact urban lot, we design custom homes that respond intelligently to your site and the way you want to live.
Single-storey homes
Thoughtfully planned for seamless, connected living. Our single-storey designs make the most of your land with intelligent spatial flow and refined finishes throughout. Explore The Manor, a warm Australiana farmhouse reimagined for modern family life, for a sense of what’s possible.
Two-storey homes
Two-storey designs offer the opportunity to create separation between living and sleeping zones, capture elevated views, and maximise space on smaller blocks. The Attadale demonstrates this beautifully: a riverfront home with a timeless, linear elevation designed to frame panoramic views.
Three-storey homes
For sites with views or families seeking expansive living, our three-storey custom build homes deliver sophisticated vertical living across multiple levels, without compromising on comfort or craftsmanship. The Scarborough is a striking example: a coastal retreat with soft curves, natural textures, and full-height glazing that captures the ocean at every turn.
Narrow lot homes
A constrained site doesn’t limit quality. We create innovative layouts that maximise every square metre, proving that considered designs can thrive on even the most compact blocks. See The Tribeca, where bold curves and arches make a statement on a narrow footprint.
Our Process
Building your dream home is a significant undertaking, and one that deserves a structured, expertly led approach. Our seven-phase process for custom home builders in Perth has been refined over six decades, designed to guide you from initial vision through to a completed home with clarity at every stage.
Phase 1: Initial design consultation
Meet with us for a relaxed conversation, where we’ll explore possibilities and discuss the planning considerations that will shape your dream custom home build.
Phase 2: Budget planning
Transparency is key. We provide a comprehensive preliminary budget that accounts for site works, potential demolition, and all anticipated costs, ensuring alignment between your vision and investment from the outset.
Phase 3: Tailoring your home design
Designing your perfect custom home begins with a personalised approach. Our expert designers take your bespoke vision and craft detailed floor plans, complemented by 3D renderings of the exterior, capturing the unique flow and style of your space.
We refine every aspect, ensuring it’s a reflection of your lifestyle. Once you’re in love with the design, we finalise the plans for council submission, paving the way to bring your custom home to life.
Phase 4: Finalising your plans & contract
With the custom home build design complete, we shift to the details. We prepare a comprehensive quote, submit planning applications, and finalise all contractual documentation. You’ll have full clarity on construction plans, timelines, and quality assurances before we proceed. Every detail is covered, giving you peace of mind as we take the next step towards building your dream home.
Phase 5: Interior design & selections
It’s time to make your dream home truly yours. Our expert interior designer will guide you through selecting the perfect finishes, colours, and materials to complement your style. With the help of our pre-start consultant, we’ll fine-tune every choice, ensuring your home reflects your unique vision. This is where craftsmanship meets personal expression.
Phase 6: Construction
Our experienced supervisors and trusted tradespeople manage every stage of construction with precision. Your dedicated client liaison keeps you informed throughout, ensuring the build progresses smoothly and to the highest standard.
Phase 7: Handover & maintenance
It’s time to celebrate! Following a detailed final inspection, we hand over the keys to your completed home. A six-month maintenance period ensures any settling is addressed, leaving your home in top condition.

FAQs
Can I customise existing designs, or do I need to start from scratch?
You can do either. Many clients use our design concepts as a starting point, adapting layouts, facades, and features to suit their site and lifestyle. Others prefer to begin with a blank canvas. As experienced custom home builders in Perth, we’re equipped to guide you through both approaches.
What budget should I allow for a Stannard custom home?
Every custom home is individually created, and costs vary depending on site conditions, design complexity, materials, and finishes. As a guide, our bespoke projects typically start at $1.4 million, with many builds exceeding this depending on scope and level of detail. This investment ensures we can deliver the integrity, craftsmanship, and long-term quality our clients expect.
What is included in the design-and-build process with Stannard Homes?
Our custom home build process covers everything from initial consultation and design development through to council approvals, interior selections, construction, and final handover. We work closely with you at every stage to ensure your vision is realised with care and precision.
Do you offer an interior design service?
Yes. Every Stannard Homes client works with our interior designer as part of our service. During your consultation at Design Home on Churchill in Subiaco, our designer guides you through selecting colours, materials, and finishes, ensuring a cohesive result that reflects your personal style.
How do you ensure the design responds to how we want to live?
It starts with listening. We take time to understand priorities, patterns of living, and how needs may evolve over time. Through ongoing collaboration, we tailor every detail of your custom home build to reflect your lifestyle while enhancing functionality and flow.
Do you provide post-construction support or warranties?
Yes. We offer a six-month defect period for any issues that may arise after handover, along with manufacturer warranties on appliances, windows, doors, benchtops, and fixtures. This ensures peace of mind long after your home is completed.
Can Stannard Homes build on narrow or challenging lots?
Absolutely. Our team has extensive experience designing for narrow, sloping, and irregular sites. We approach complex sites as opportunities for intelligent design, crafting intelligent layouts that maximise space without compromising on quality or liveability.
