Plus, you can benefit from a range of included essentials, like: 

  • Individually crafted kitchen
  • Haier appliance package
  • Taubman Premium Paint system
  • Complimentary electrical planning
  • PGH bricks and concrete roof tiles from your preselected theme
  • Insulation
  • Hume front entry door from your preselected theme
  • Colorbond panel lift garage door

The first step in the process is to choose your dream home from the Emerge Collection! We have 20 stunning designs available (including TWO acreage homes), as well as two architecturally designed granny flats for multi-generational families or those looking to make some extra rental income.
