The Great Lake

This beautiful pavilion-styled home maximises space by using it efficiently and elegantly, indoors and outdoors. Floor to ceiling windows combine with skylights to fill the living areas with light. It’s also perfect for entertaining with a central hub that brings people together. The master suite is created as a wonderful retreat, nestled in the gable of the second pavilion.

About the
Professional

Design Builders create superb one-off homes for our clients, we’ve been doing this for 30 years and along the way we’ve won well over 100 Registered Master Builders House of The Year Awards, including Regional Gold Awards, Best in Category and many more.

Our company’s foundations were laid by our founder, Andy Bell, back in 1992 when we built a new home for our very first client.

We’ve come a long way since then, we’ve grown in size and reputation, yet like anything that’s built to last, we’ve stuck to our original vision and values. We offer New Zealanders something unique – instead of catalogues, templates or pre-existing designs we design and build superb unique homes that express the owner’s personality; a home inspired by the people who will live in it and love it. We call it ‘A home built around you’​.

No existing plans, templates, or catalogues. We work with you to create a unique home designed & built just for you, inspired by you.

You might think that a home designed and built the way you want is out of reach. With Design Builders, you can afford to think differently. Our process is built around you, including your budget. Let’s talk.
