Sarah & Joseph

At Senka we understand that being flexible and understanding is of outmost importance

With location a priority and a very clear idea of what they wanted in a new home, this clever couple made early plans to knockdown and rebuild.

With location as a key factor and a clear vision for their future, this forward-thinking couple opted for a home and land package early in the rapidly growing suburb of Deanside – and they are delighted (and proud) with their beautiful new home.

Client needs:

Sarah and David were set on finding the ideal home and land package to establish their forever home. Keeping energy efficiency and comfort as their top priorities, they aimed to remain near their current neighbourhood. After reviewing over 50 different floorplans from various builders and designers, they realised that a two-storey design was essential to maximise their block size and provide the flexible, spacious living space their family required.

At the start..

While residing in a compact townhouse, Sarah and Joseph made proactive plans by purchasing an older home in their desired location, choosing to rent it out until they were ready to begin constructing their dream home.

“Staying in the same area where we both grew up, close to our family in neighbouring suburbs, was essential for us when planning our forever home,” explains Sarah.

“Even though we bought an existing house, we never planned to live in it,” adds Joseph. “We made some small renovations to make it tenant-friendly, until we had saved enough to start building our home five years later.” The couple, with a precise vision for their dream home, were thorough in their search for a builder and a floorplan that would accommodate their expanding family.

Type of home selected

“We chose the Artemis 42 as it perfectly fits our lifestyle and family needs,” explains Joseph. “We particularly liked that the children’s activity room is conveniently located at the front of the house on the first floor, which helps manage the clutter,” Sarah adds with a laugh.

“The parent’s retreat also won us over with its spacious walk-in robe,” says Joseph.

 
 

Process & Timeline

After selecting their home design and builder, Bianca and Joseph’s next task was to organize all the necessary paperwork and secure financing for their home and land package. This involved coordinating with their family broker to ensure that all financial aspects were in order. While managing the financing was straightforward with the help of their broker, ensuring they had all the paperwork in order for the building project required meticulous attention to ensure a smooth process from start to finish.

Why SENKA?

“After months of exploring and touring model homes, we were captivated by the floorplan and design of the Senka Homes model, coupled with their generous inclusions that simplified our decision,” says Sarah. “It offered much more than we initially anticipated,” adds Joseph.

“Based on experiences shared by friends who had constructed homes with both custom and volume builders, we understood that custom builders like Senka Homes would provide us with the best value and comprehensive options for our needs,” Sarah explains.

Top upgrades

“We are incredibly proud of how our design choices have come together, reflecting our style and incorporating important features,” says Bianca. “It’s amazing to see our dream home materialize exactly as we envisioned.”

The home’s standout features include 2740mm ceiling heights that enhance spatial perception, a 40mm premium stone kitchen centerpiece, and sleek steel stringer stairs, each adding a distinctive touch and functionality to our living space.
