Trying to decide on the perfect new home design? It’s such an important decision, and one that needs lots of research before you make a choice. But how do you know what’s right for you and your family? Looking online is certainly a great place to start, but nothing beats visiting as many display homes as you can in person. Make a short list of the homes you like, and then plan a trip to the relevant display villages. Seeing the homes in person gives a true sense of their size and flow, plus the various options and upgrades offered by each builder, when it comes to fittings, finishes, appliances, colour schemes, plus much more.
North Harbour’s Display Village at Burpengary East is a fantastic resource for house hunters, as it is one of the biggest and best in South East Queensland. Showcasing over 30 beautiful home designs from Australia’s most experienced and professional home builders, it is a must-see for anyone looking to build their dream home. Everything you could possibly want to see in interior and exterior design styling is on display here, from the latest in kitchen and bathroom finishes, to relaxing alfresco areas, butler’s pantries, media rooms, contemporary and traditional facades, and the list goes on.
As a trusted, family-owned, South East Queensland builder with over 40 years’ experience, Hallmark Homes is proud to present two stylish new display homes at North Harbour that you simply must visit in person.
The Byron 216 from the LUMA by Hallmark range is a stunning 4 bedroom home that has fantastic flow throughout, and really makes the most of the space. You’ll love the versatility of three separate living areas, plus the option to relax outdoors on the alfresco. A beautiful kitchen with a stone island bench and a large walk-through pantry provides easy access to the laundry. The kids’ zone includes three bedrooms centred around an activity room and handy walk-in linen cupboard with ample storage. The master suite features a generous walk-in robe and ensuite. This cleverly designed home is perfect for young couples or families wanting to get more home for their money.
The spacious 4 bedroom Cedar 263 is a thoughtfully designed, open plan family home, perfect for entertaining. This stunning home design from the new NEST by Hallmark range is sure to tick all the boxes. Ideally suited to a 16m block frontage, this stunning home features a gourmet kitchen overlooking the living area, a beautiful alfresco that brings the outdoors in, and a gin bar perfect for when you want to entertain friends and family. The home also has a separate media room and a versatile study space, making this home spacious and practical. As a brand-new home design new to the Hallmark Homes design range, this home is a must to visit.
Express your personal style with a façade that offers maximum street appeal. Hallmark Homes offer a wide selection of stylish façade options including Classic, Executive, Urban, the ever-popular Hamptons, plus many more. We also have a new range of façades coming soon to our home design range – so keep your eyes peeled for when we launch these later in the year!
Visiting display homes is an easy way to start this exciting journey. Best of all, it’s absolutely free and you can do it at your own pace. Most people underestimate the enormous value of visiting display homes before choosing a builder. Sure, you can jump online to look at home designs, pricing, builders’ credentials, plus much more, but nothing beats seeing the homes for yourself, and having a face-to-face chat with each sales consultant. You’ll get a much better feel for which builders you’re comfortable with, and which homes feel right for you and your family. To ensure you get the most out of your visit, it pays to be prepared! Here are some handy tips to get you started.
Many home builders now offer virtual display home tours online, so you can get a better idea of which homes you would like to visit in person. It’s a great way to create a shortlist. Hallmark Homes offer a selection of virtual tours here.
Allow about 20 minutes to look through each display home, and an additional 10 minutes to ask the home consultant any questions. Don’t make the mistake of planning too many visits on the same day. This can be overwhelming, and you may not remember much at all! You can always come back for a second visit.
It’s easy to get distracted by all the ‘bells & whistles’ when you’re visiting display homes. Many builders go all out when furnishing and finishing their display homes, but it pays to remember that many of the features you’ll see on display are upgrade options. While it can be overwhelming, it’s also a great opportunity to see what you would and wouldn’t like as an upgrade option in your build. Making a wish list and preparing some questions will make it much easier for you to refer back to down the track.
If you’re looking to build your dream home in one of the best master planned communities in South East Queensland, North Harbour is a great option to consider!
