KNOCKDOWN & REBUILD

IN MELBOURNE

Love your location.

Make room for your next chapter.

Rebuild in the neighbourhood you love, with a home designed around the way you live. Ansel Homes helps you explore your property’s potential and work through the design, planning and construction of your new home.

A clear path to your next home.

A rebuild involves more than choosing a design. It brings together site investigations, selections, documentation, approvals and construction. Understanding the main stages helps you prepare for the decisions ahead.

Start with a conversation

Tell us about your property, your reasons for rebuilding and what you’d like to achieve. We’ll discuss your priorities, indicative budget and preferred timing to establish a starting point for your project.

Understand your block

Review the site information and identify the investigations needed to assess your property. These findings help clarify the opportunities, constraints and site requirements that may influence your design and costs.

Shape the design and details

Explore the layout, facade and interior direction for your new home. Work through the proposed scope, inclusions, pricing and contract documentation so you understand what your project involves.

Prepare for construction

Progress the required approvals and confirm the demolition and site preparation arrangements. This stage brings together the requirements that need to be addressed before building can begin.

Build and welcome you home

Your home takes shape through the construction stages, followed by completion checks, a final inspection and handover. It’s the point where the plans you’ve worked through become the spaces you’ll live in.

Hear an Ansel client experience

What our clients say about building with Ansel.

"This was our first time building and we have to say, the end was the best part! The process itself is stressful in parts, of course, but it’s all worth it when you start to see it all come together in the end."

Nadia and Steven – Mount Waverley

"We have our house built by Ansel homes recently in Wyndham Vale. It was a very horrible experience it was our first Home and took around 12 months for completion. Sandy the owner is full of arrogance and attitude. So if you OK to wait for a year, OK for your email to be ignored. He is the builder for you."

Rustom Qadri

"The quality of the workmanship is outstanding – everything has been finished to a very high standard, and it’s clear they take pride in what they do. They listened to our ideas, offered expert advice, and delivered exactly what we were looking for, on time and within budget.Sandy as looked after the Project Well."
