Start fresh with a new build designed for Melbourne living
At G.J. Gardner Homes, we believe building a new home should be one of life’s most joyful and fulfilling journeys. It’s not just about construction — it’s about creating a space that reflects who you are and where you’re headed. That’s why our new home designs in Melbourne are built with heart — balancing flexibility, comfort and practicality to help you feel at home before you’ve even moved in.
Whether you’re dreaming of a bright and breezy single storey retreat, a double storey design with space to grow, or a clever split level home that works with the land, we’ll help bring your vision to life. You can start with one of our trusted designs and make it completely your own — reimagining the layout, refining the finishes, and shaping every detail to suit the way you want to live.
With over 40 years of experience and a local Melbourne team who genuinely cares, we’re here to make your new house build more than just seamless and stress-free, but something you’ll look back on with pride — and maybe even a little joy.
Step inside a display home and experience the joy of building
Stepping inside a home isn’t just about seeing the finishes — it’s about imagining birthdays in the kitchen, slow Sundays in the lounge, and the everyday moments that make a house a home. Our Melbourne display homes let you do exactly that. You’ll experience how each layout feels in motion, how light moves through the space, and how thoughtful design can enhance everyday living.
From welcoming entries and open-plan living zones to carefully connected indoor-outdoor spaces, you’ll get a true sense of what makes a G.J. Gardner home unique. Whether you’re refining your wishlist or just starting to explore, visiting a display home is a great way to feel inspired and supported.

Can I personalise an existing home design?

You can adjust room configurations, change facades, upgrade finishes, or completely rework the flow — our experienced design consultants will guide you through every step to ensure the end result is a home that’s truly yours.
Do you build homes throughout Melbourne?
Yes, we build right across Melbourne and surrounding areas — from the Inner Northern Suburbs to the South East, to the Inner North West and fringe growth corridors. No matter where you’re building, our local teams understand the regulations, soil types, climate considerations and community preferences unique to your location. With G.J. Gardner, your new build in Melbourne will be tailored to suit both your block and your broader environment.
What if I already have plans or a concept design?
That’s no problem. If you’ve created your own plan or have a design concept in mind, we can work with you to refine and bring it to life. We’ll make sure it’s structurally sound, meets local council requirements and is ready for construction.
What types of new homes do you offer in Melbourne?
We offer a wide range of new home designs in Melbourne, carefully tailored to suit different lifestyles and land types. Whether you’re building on a tight urban block, a sloping site, or a spacious suburban lot, you’ll find smart, stylish solutions — including modern and contemporary homes, dual occupancy designs, narrow block layouts, split level homes, and custom designs that can be built from scratch. Our range includes both single storey and double storey house designs, each crafted for comfort, function, and long-term value.
Does G.J. Gardner offer knockdown rebuilds?
