Advice for Sunshine Coast Residents Who Want…

A Custom Acreage Home With Every Detail Designed And Built Just For You

Meticulously Crafted, Flawlessly Finished, And Made To Bring Out The Very Best In Your Unique Acreage Property

There’s Nothing Like Acreage Living
But Building A Custom Acreage Home Is Different

Once you’ve lived on acreage, you’ll never go back to the city. There’s nothing quite like the peaceful open space, the invigorating fresh air, the views that stretch for miles, and the connection with nature.

Yet sadly, many acreage owners miss out on the full potential of their magnificent location because their house was designed for the suburbs. Like many acreage holders, perhaps you are…

Worried you’ll get a cookie-cutter home that looks ordinary…

and want a builder who will design every detail, to make the most of your acreage land and match your lifestyle and personality.

Nervous, you'll spend all this money and feel disappointed in your new home…

and want a builder who specializes in acreage homes and will prompt you to think of things you may not know about (including the practical aspects of acreage living like water, septic systems, and services) so you get a home (and lifestyle) you’ll love. 

Concerned your builder will go over time and budget…

and want to work with a builder with a proven process to ensure everything runs smoothly and according to plan.

Worried you won’t know where your build is up to…

and want a builder who keeps you informed at every stage, so you always know what’s happening.

Afraid your builder may not be financially secure…

and want a reliable builder with a long track record so you can be certain you’re in safe hands.

Worried your home may look good, but have underlying defects…

and want a builder with fastidious attention to detail to ensure your home looks flawless and has a solid structure that last a lifetime.

Many acreage owners have these exact questions and concerns. We invite you to book a Free Discovery Session where we will share our 35+ years of experience to answer your questions, and help you clarify and refine the vision you have for your custom acreage home.

How We Help You Get The Exact Custom Acreage Home You Want

Over the past 35 years we have built more than 140 custom homes in and around the Sunshine Coast (including our own beautiful acreage home that looks every bit as good as it did when we built it 20 years ago). 

Unlike other builders who attempt to modify a generic suburban house for acreage, we design your home from a blank page to ensure it makes the most of your unique land (the views, breezes, natural light, and privacy), and matches your lifestyle and personality. 

While many builders are spread thin trying to work on dozens of homes at once, we focus on no more than two homes a year to ensure you get exactly what you want, built with precision and pride, and delivered on time and on budget. 

In short, we have the expertise and processes to deliver a building experience you’ll enjoy and a custom home you’ll love.

Every Detail Thoughtfully Designed And Custom Made For You

While any builder can build a house, we take time to get to know you and your family so we can design and build the perfect acreage home that gives you everything you’ve ever wanted (and more). 

We’ll guide you with thoughtful questions to help you clarify and refine your vision. And recommend the most efficient and effective ways to bring your ideas to life.

Clever Storage To Reduce Clutter

Perhaps you’d like a special washroom for your precious four-legged family member. Or like one of our clients, maybe you’d like a mud room to rinse the veggies you bring in from your garden.

Perhaps you’d like an outdoor deck kitchen, so everything is close at hand when you’re entertaining. Or an outdoor shower or tub (or an oversized window over your inside tub) so you can truly relax with nature.

Perhaps you’d like to add a little width to your hallway so it can double as a library. Turn the recesses between wall studs into handy storage cupboards so cleaning supplies are always close at hand yet discreetly hidden away. And add drawers under your stairs for shoes or school scrapbooks.

These are some of the innovative custom features that make everyday living convenient and enjoyable. Things you don’t get with an ordinary builder and generic plans. Thoughtful details that make your David Prior Home the haven you’ve always wanted because it is designed and built just for you.

Why Sunshine Coast Residents Choose David Prior Homes For Their Dream Custom Acreage Homes

Building a custom acreage home is incredibly exciting. It’s your chance to get everything you’ve ever wanted in a home. But it can also feel daunting. And mistakes can be expensive and cause regrets you’ll feel frustrated about for years.

Here are some of the things we do differently to other builders to ensure you get the exact home you want and enjoy your building experience.

Every Detail Designed Just For You

While other builders will ask you to choose a generic plan that they will try to modify (often requiring you to make disappointing compromises), we start from a blank page and take time to get to know you. We’ll help you refine your ideas and get clarity around the vision you have for your home. Then we’ll show you the most efficient and effective ways to bring your ideas to life including special things throughout your home that you enjoy every day and feel proud to share with guests. And personal touches that evoke memories and bring you closer to your family and the surrounding land. Your house will feel like your forever home because every detail was designed and built just for you.

Optimised To Bring Out The Best In Your Acreage Block

Sadly, too many acreage homeowners miss out on the benefits of their acreage land because their house was designed for the suburbs. We take time to assess your unique block and offer recommendations to make the most of every feature. We’ll start by orienting your house to capture the best of the views, breezes, and natural light while maintaining privacy. We’ll suggest customisations to the roofline, windows, and doors so every room is filled with natural light and boasts breathtaking views. And we’ll help you design a floorplan that meets your family’s needs, flows seamlessly throughout, and connects every room to the surrounding landscape.

Expert Guidance For An Outcome Better Than You Imagined

We’ve lived on acreage our whole lives and built more than 140 homes over the past 35 years, so we understand both the benefits and challenges of acreage life. We’ll share our experience and help you consider details you may not think to consider (like water, septic systems, and services), so you can enjoy city conveniences with unmatched acreage lifestyle.

Proven Process To Ensure Your Home Is Finished On-Time And On Budget

The reason many homes take so long to build is because they sit idle waiting for trades and supplies. Our proven process ensures everything is ordered and ready onsite. And trades are scheduled in sequence, so your home progresses as planned and is finished on time and on budget.

Considerate Communication Keeps You In The Loop

There’s nothing worse than not knowing what’s happening (especially when friends ask, “How’s your house going,” and you can’t answer). We keep you informed with a weekly update and progress photos, so you always know what’s planned and what’s just been finished. And you can contact the owners (David and Allison Prior) anytime via phone or email.

Fastidious Attention To Detail In Every Aspect

While most new homes look good at first glance, they have serious defects lurking under the paint and plaster. That’s why they leak, crack around doorways, and drawers and doors become ‘sticky’ and hard to open. It’s also why they age prematurely and cost a fortune in maintenance and repairs. Our fastidious attention to detail ensures the structure of your home is rock solid and the finishes are flawless. Everything is designed and built for maximum enjoyment and minimum maintenance. That’s why David Prior homes look better, last longer, and have higher resale values (just ask any Real Estate Agent who has been selling homes on the Sunshine Coast for any time).

Rock Solid Reputation and Financial Stability

Building more than 140 homes on the Sunshine Coast over the past 35 years has earned David Prior Homes a reputation as a reliable builder. Our proven process and longstanding network of skilled tradespeople ensure we deliver high-quality homes with a financially secure company.
