Building on sloping lots presents unique challenges, but with the right expertise, it can lead to breathtaking results. At Building Buddy, we specialize in custom Sloping Lot House Plans and understand the nuances of designing homes that harmonize with uneven terrain.
A Custom Home in Brighton
Nestled in the tranquil surroundings of Brighton, an outer suburb of Brisbane, this stunning lowset home built on stumps embraces the natural landscape. With its position overlooking Bald Hills Creek, the property presented a gentle yet significant 3m fall across the block.
Rather than resorting to excessive cut and fill, we opted for a concrete slab foundation, extending a suspended timber deck over the bulk of the fall. This innovative approach minimized excavation, controlled costs, and created a seamless transition between the home and its riverside setting.
“The result? A spectacular lowset home with panoramic views, functional elegance, and a natural rustic charm.”
Building Smart on Sloping Sites
Constructing a Split-Level Home requires careful planning. Through our custom home design process, our expert building designers ensure every detail complements the topography of the site. Here’s how we made this Brighton home work:
Minimal excavation – reducing disturbance to the land
Smart foundation strategy – optimizing a concrete slab where necessary
Suspended timber deck – allowing the design to flow with the landscape
Integrated project management – ensuring efficiency from concept to completion
Our building consultants worked closely with our drafting services to refine the design before our trade-based builders executed the project flawlessly.
