Have you discovered the ideal plot of land in the ideal neighborhood, but now you need the new house of your dreams to go with it?
Alternatively, are you looking for the ideal block but want to research the best possible design before committing to buying the land?
We discussed your specific preferences, lifestyle, family requirements, and block of land with our knowledgeable team of Building & Design Consultants to get their best advice on choosing the ideal home design.
- RECOGNIZE THE TERRAIN OF THE LAND.
- Make sure your new home design maximizes the use of your lovely location and block of land when making design decisions. Consider which room in your house—your dining room, your living room, your master suite, or your heated outdoor patio—you would like to use to take in the best views of the surrounding landscape if they are found from a particular angle on your block. Selecting between a single-story or two-story design will also be made easier if you are aware of your location and the surrounding landscape. For instance, you might not need to build up to enjoy the stunning views if your home is on a large, unobstructed acreage block.
- WHICH THINGS MUST YOU HAVE?
- Consider your family’s needs and preferences for rooms, features, and spaces when selecting a home design. Evaluate both current and future bedroom requirements and identify desired lifestyle areas, such as a home theater or study. Reflect on your ideal lifestyle and future plans to create a list of essential elements. Additionally, compile a list of desires, including wish-list items like a mudroom or a double garage. These lists should guide your design comparisons and decision-making process, ensuring that your chosen design aligns with your family’s priorities and preferences.
- EXAMINE AND EVALUATE NUMEROUS NEW RESIDENCES.
- During the research phase of choosing a floor plan, you may find a design that seems perfect, especially if you can walk through a display home based on that design to experience its flow and functionality. Wilson Homes offers a diverse range of new home floor plans, including two, three, and four-bedroom designs, with options to customize standard plans. Before finalizing a design, it is advisable to consult with one of Wilson Homes’ experienced Building & Design Consultants. Discussing your block and preferred designs early on can help identify the best fit, preventing potential disappointment later in the process.
- EXAMINE YOUR HOME’S FUTURE PROSPECTS
- For a large number of families, we construct their forever home. They want to grow old and make memories in this house, as well as raise their children there. It’s crucial to consider your family’s needs both now and down the road when designing your dream house. You might be able to live without some of the luxuries now if you are building your first house or using it as a springboard to a larger one later on. Alternatively, you could prioritize return on investment or resale value over the level of personalization you desire. When constructing your retirement residence, make sure to prioritize important aspects like maintenance and accessibility to ensure you are making well-informed choices.
- NORMS, GUIDELINES, AND NEEDS
- It can be difficult to navigate through council and developer requirements for your home and land. If you’re trying to understand particulars like frontage and setback regulations, your Building and Design Consultant can help. They can help you choose homes that meet these criteria because they are aware of the particular needs of the area’s developer. To prevent disappointments down the road, it’s imperative to discuss design and facade choices with your consultant first. While researching local building requirements on your own can be beneficial, your Building & Design Consultant is always on hand to answer any questions you may have along the way.
- PLAN YOUR BUDGET
- Be certain of your maximum budget before selecting the design for your new home. This will help you stay within that budget throughout the entire building process. Take into consideration the price of building the house, any extra features you would like to add from the MyChoice Design Studio, and any furniture or décor you would like to buy for your new residence. You should also think about whether you want to budget for unanticipated site conditions that may arise during construction, such as the need for extra retaining walls or rock.
