Licensed Custom Home Builder Eastlakes — Design & Construct
NSW licensed builder (Oliver Alameri) delivering fixed-price custom homes across Eastlakes 2018. Engineered slab for Class M soil, BASIX 2025, 6-year structural warranty.
Quick Answer
A custom home in Eastlakes costs $450,000–$1,200,000+ depending on size and specification. Single storey from $450K, double storey from $650K. Buildana manages design, Bayside Council approvals and fixed-price construction.
Custom Home Builder in Eastlakes
A custom home in Eastlakes is usually an infill or knockdown-and-build in a suburb the apartment market is reshaping. The post-war brick on 350 to 650m² blocks between Mascot and Pagewood is steadily giving way to contemporary homes and, on the right lot, R3 or R4 density, so a new build here holds detached land in an area that keeps re-rating at a $1.5M to $2.3M median.
The ground and the air both need designing for. Botany Sands means footings are engineered for sand rather than a standard slab, and the airport flight-path overlays make acoustic construction and glazing essential from the start. On compact blocks an efficient two-storey design earns every metre, and near the shops R3 or R4 zoning is worth a feasibility check against a single home.
What I would check first on your Eastlakes block: the sand-based footing design, the flight-path acoustic requirement, and any R3 or R4 upside. Those set the path.
We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our feasibility before you design.
Buildana's design-and-construct service covers everything — from initial design brief and land assessment through to council approval and fixed-price construction. One builder, one contract, one point of contact.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
We start with a site visit or showroom meeting to talk through what you want to build on your Eastlakes block. We'll review Bayside Council's planning controls for 350–650m² lots with R2 Low zoning and give you a straight answer on budget and feasibility.
⏱Design starts with site analysis — sun path, prevailing breeze, neighbour overlooking, slope, view lines from each likely living area. The plan is drawn to that, not dropped onto the block. Two design options usually, sometimes three, then you pick the direction and we refine.
⏱Working drawings, structural engineering (Class M soil design), BASIX certification, geotechnical report, stormwater plan and all certification documentation prepared.
⏱Most custom homes in Eastlakes qualify for CDC with a 10–15 business day turnaround. If DA is required through Bayside Council, we manage the full submission and respond to any requests for information. Construction Certificate follows.
⏱Construction is run from a programme, not made up week to week. Trade sequencing is locked in advance so the slab cures into a waiting frame and the frame waits for nothing. That's how a 24–40 week build actually delivers in 24–40 weeks instead of running 60+.
⏱Walk through your finished home, collect keys, and move in. OC issued, defect-free inspection completed, 6-year structural warranty, and full maintenance guide provided.
⏱Quality Promise
Every Buildana custom home in Eastlakes is designed for your block and built under a fixed-price contract — no surprises, no hidden extras.
