Quick Answer

A custom home in Picnic Point costs $450,000–$1,200,000+ depending on size and specification. Single storey from $450K, double storey from $650K. Buildana manages design, Canterbury-Bankstown Council approvals and fixed-price construction.

Picnic Point Custom Home Construction

A custom home in Picnic Point is a premium waterfront family build on a generous block by the Georges River. This leafy suburb runs established 1960s to 1980s homes on 600 to 1,000m2 lots, and at a $1.2M to $1.5M market a designed replacement is a strong play in a premium riverside setting. The foreshore reserve and the river outlook are why owners build here.

The ground is engineered off geotech to suit the specific lot, and on a foreshore or sloping block a design oriented to the river makes the most of the position. The generous blocks open substantial single or double-storey family designs with a real backyard, and where older homes carry fibro a licensed asbestos strip-out comes first. Picnic Point Reserve anchors the leafy character.

What I would check first on your Picnic Point block: the footing design off geotech, the orientation to the river, and any asbestos in older stock. Those set the home.

We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Show us your block and outlook and we will design to it.

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 come to your Picnic Point site or you visit our office on The Horsley Drive in Fairfield. Either way, you leave the meeting with a clear cost band, an outline timeline, and a yes/no on whether your block supports the home you have in mind. The hard yards happen here, not at design lock-in.

Our designer draws up plans matched to your Picnic Point block — north-facing living, compliant setbacks, garage placement, and outdoor flow. You get floor plans, elevations, and 3D renders to review before we lock in the design.

Documentation is where bad builders cut corners and good builds stay on track. Buildana commissions the borehole, instructs the engineer, prepares BASIX, and aligns hydraulic, structural, and architectural drawings before lodgement. Certifiers reject sloppy packages — ours go in clean.

CDC fast-track (10–15 business days) or DA through Canterbury-Bankstown Council (40–90 days). Picnic Point is zoned R2 Low Density. Construction Certificate obtained before works commence.

Slab, frame, lock-up, fit-out, external works — all under fixed-price contract. Dedicated project manager on your build, weekly progress reports, and quality inspections at every critical hold point.

OC, six-year structural warranty, two-year non-structural warranty, all manufacturer warranties on appliances and fixtures, BASIX certificate, certifier sign-offs, and maintenance schedule — all handed over in a single documentation pack. Keep it for your records and any future sale.
