Choosing the right modular home starts with understanding your land. Whether you’re building in town, on a rural property, or by the coast, your block type dictates the design of a perfect home, and with Swanbuild, you’ve got options for every lifestyle and land type.
When you’re planning a new home, the first thing to look at isn’t the floor plan, it’s the composition of your land and site. The size, slope and location of your block all help determine which modular home design will best suit your land and lifestyle. Swanbuild, we build homes for a range of sites across regional Victoria, South Australia and Southern NSW, and tailor every project to suit the land it’s built on.
If you’re building on a town block, layout and footprint matter most. You want a design that makes smart use of space without feeling cramped. The Eden 20 is a good example, a modern design that fits neatly on smaller lots while still offering open plan living and plenty of natural light. For something more traditional, we often suggest the Benalla 15 as it combines a classic exterior with a practical floor plan that suits young families or downsizers.
During your site visit, our team will assess the access, orientation and sun position of each design, and plan how your home can best connect to services and surrounding features.
With larger rural properties, there’s more freedom to design around the landscape. Wrap-around verandas, wide living spaces and room for entertaining all come into play.
The Inverloch 25 is ideal if you like a more contemporary look, open living areas that connect to outdoor spaces and take in the surrounding views.
If you prefer something more traditional, the Homestead 27 offers country charm with practical details for family life on the land. We also make sure your home suits local conditions, from wind and sun exposure to driveway access and water connections. And if your property is in a bushfire-prone area, we’ll factor in your BAL (Bushfire Attack Level) rating from the start to ensure your home meets all safety and compliance requirements without compromising on design.
With Australia’s varying terrain, not every block is a straightforward build. Whether you’re building on a slope, in a bushfire zone or a flood-prone area, Swanbuild designs can be adapted to meet local requirements. Our homes are engineered for strength and transport, and our delivery team regularly handles difficult-to-reach rural locations, so you’re not limited by where you live.
Tailored to Your Land and Lifestyle
Just like your home, every block has a different setup, and your modular design should be built to match it. Talk to the Swanbuild team about how we can design a home that fits your land, your lifestyle and your plans for the future. Explore our display homes or book a virtual tour today!
