Mount Eliza homes

Big blocks, planned as one.

Mount Eliza is all about space: generous leafy blocks, established trees, and streets that rise up the ridge with glimpses of the bay. The best outdoor spaces here feel like a retreat, with terraces that step down the slope, a pool area you want to spend the day in, and gardens that tie it all together.

On a big block it pays to plan the whole yard once, then build it in stages that suit your budget. You see a mockup of your own yard first, then get an itemised proposal for each stage.

Local know how

What we plan for in Mount Eliza.

01

Vegetation rules

Many parts of the Peninsula, including Mount Eliza, have planning controls on removing or lopping vegetation. We check what applies to your block before we design, and plan around the trees worth keeping.

02

Slopes and terraces

Many blocks fall away towards the bay. Terraces, steps and retaining walls turn the slope into level, usable space, and walls of 1 m or more generally need a building permit.

03

Pools and entertaining

Any pool or spa needs a compliant safety barrier, so we design the fencing, gates, paving and lighting into the plan from the start.

04

Built in stages

Big yards rarely get built in one go. We plan the whole space once, so each stage fits the next and nothing gets pulled up later.

What's included

Planned once, built properly.

Every Mount Eliza project is quoted stage by stage, so you can build it all at once or in steps and see exactly what's included before we start.

  1. Site measure, levels and drainage check
  2. A free visual mockup of your own yard
  3. An itemised, stage by stage proposal
  4. Excavation and site preparation
  5. Paving, decking, walls and concrete
  6. Turf, planting and garden beds
  7. Lighting, screens and finishing touches
How it works

Four steps.
No surprises.

A simple process that shows you the finished result before we start, and keeps you in the loop until handover.

01

Site visit

We come out, measure up, check levels and drainage, and talk through how you want to use the space.

02

Visual mockup

We show you your own yard with the new design applied, so you can see it before you commit.

03

Itemised proposal

A clear, stage by stage price with what's included and what's not. Bundle stages together and save.

04

Build & handover

One team builds it start to finish, keeps the site clean, and walks you through the finished result.
