Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to build a custom luxury home with Preferred Properties in the Bayside or Inner East Melbourne?

The investment required to build a bespoke architectural home depends on site conditions, design complexity, and the level of finishes selected. As a guide, the projects we undertake are typically valued at $3 million and above, reflecting the quality of materials, craftsmanship, and personal oversight involved in delivering a truly custom luxury residence.

We discuss budget alignment early in the discovery consultation to ensure expectations are clear and the process is approached with confidence.

Do you work with my architect or do you offer design and build?

We are experienced in collaborating with independent architects and protecting the integrity of their design.

If you are at an earlier stage, we can guide you through a structured design and build pathway, assisting with site assessment, design development, planning, and construction. Our role is to ensure the design vision is realised with technical precision and thoughtful execution.

How many projects do you take on each year?

We deliberately limit ourselves to just two new custom home projects per year. This allows us to provide rare personal service, close collaboration, and diligent oversight throughout every stage of the build.

Do you build luxury homes in Brighton, Toorak and surrounding suburbs?

Yes. We specialise in custom architectural homes across Brighton, Hampton, Kew, Sandringham, Toorak, Malvern, Camberwell, Hawthorn, and surrounding Bayside and Inner East suburbs. Our understanding of local council requirements and neighbourhood character ensures your home is both compliant and contextually appropriate.

• Site and feasibility assessment
• Budget guidance and construction planning
• Detailed specification refinement
• Full project management
