Few things feed the soul, like wide open spaces on a big Australian lot of land. We build entire holidays around escapes to the country (whether that be actual regional Australia or just enough land to make it feel that way). But what if you could create that serenity in your everyday life? With Domaine, we offer homes that are thoughtfully designed inside for growing families while also being sympathetic and complementary to the vast landscape that surrounds them. Our acreage blocks provide spacious properties that offer versatility and a peaceful countryside lifestyle. With Domaine, you can live big for less.
Acreage house designs highlight the benefits of living on larger blocks, such as increased privacy and improved air quality. These designs maximise the advantages of spaciousness and natural light, catering to various family needs with a diverse range of floor plans. Imagine creating your dream home with personalised features that fulfil your aspirations.
Living in an acreage home offers a unique set of benefits that cater to those seeking a peaceful and spacious lifestyle. Imagine waking up to the sound of birds chirping and the sight of rolling hills or lush greenery right outside your window. Acreage living provides a serene and private environment, perfect for families and individuals looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. With ample space for outdoor activities, gardening, and entertaining, you can truly make the most of your surroundings.
Acreage homes also foster a deep connection to nature and the surrounding landscape, promoting a sense of calm and wellbeing. The opportunity to create a self-sufficient lifestyle is another significant advantage, with plenty of space for animals, gardens, and other hobbies. Additionally, many acreage homes are located in close-knit rural areas, offering a sense of community and belonging that is often hard to find in urban settings. Embrace the tranquillity and freedom that come with acreage living.
Our modern country acreage home designs in NSW are created for a range of lot sizes, from 25+m lot width to 29+m lot width. Domaine Homes wants to ensure that large homes are within reach for Australians looking for their little slice of paddocked paradise that is attainable and affordable without sacrificing quality and that ‘wow’ factor. Emphasising the appeal of modern acreage home design, we create spacious living environments that cater to the versatile nature of acreage blocks, helping clients navigate the construction of their ideal rural lifestyle.
The Montana and Oatland Series offers four to five-bedroom homes, with two to three spacious living and entertaining areas and up to 2.5 bathrooms. These stunning acreage homes highlight the quality and beauty of our designs, catering to families seeking spacious and comfortable living in a rural setting. While these specs are wonderful for seeing what your budget can get you, they also say a lot about what it will truly be like to live in a country-style home. That is, family gatherings, togetherness and making long-lasting memories with loved ones, as well as plenty of space to find solace in alone time as you listen to the kookaburras echo softly from afar.
Designing an acreage home requires careful consideration of the block’s unique features and the homeowner’s lifestyle. The size, shape, and orientation of the block play a crucial role in maximising natural light and taking advantage of the surrounding views. Whether you prefer modern country homes or luxury acreage home designs, the style and aesthetic of your home should reflect your personal taste and complement the natural surroundings.
Consider the number of bedrooms and living areas required to accommodate your family’s needs, and think about incorporating sustainable and eco-friendly features such as solar panels and rainwater harvesting. The use of materials and finishes that promote a sense of warmth and comfort will enhance the overall ambience of your home. Designing your dream acreage home is about creating a space that is both functional and beautiful, tailored to your unique lifestyle.
Our acreage-style homes in NSW create a seamless transition from indoor to outdoor, knowing that what surrounds your home is almost as important as what is inside your home for these properties.

Building on an acreage block can be a complex process, requiring careful planning and execution. The first step is to understand the block’s zoning and land-use regulations to ensure compliance with local authorities. The topography and soil conditions of the block will determine the best location for the home and any other structures, ensuring stability and longevity.
Budget and timeline are critical factors to consider, as they will guide the scope and pace of the project. Selecting a reputable and experienced builder with expertise in acreage home construction is essential to achieving a successful outcome. Incorporating features such as septic systems, water tanks, and solar panels will promote self-sufficiency and sustainability, making your acreage home a haven of comfort and efficiency
The cost of building an acreage home can vary widely, depending on factors such as the block’s size and location, the home’s design and features, and the builder’s expertise and reputation. When determining the cost of an acreage home, consider the land package, including the block’s purchase price and any associated fees. The house and land package will encompass the home’s construction costs and any additional features or upgrades, such as solar panels or a swimming pool.
Ongoing maintenance and upkeep, including rates and insurance, should also be factored into the overall cost. However, the potential for long-term savings and benefits, such as reduced energy costs and increased property value, can make investing in an acreage home a wise financial decision. By carefully planning and budgeting, you can create a stunning acreage home that offers both immediate enjoyment and long-term value.
Choosing the right location for an acreage home is crucial, with factors such as climate, accessibility, and amenities playing a significant role in determining the home’s livability and value. The region’s climate and weather patterns will influence the best location for the home and any outdoor features, ensuring comfort and practicality throughout the year.
Proximity to amenities such as schools, shops, and healthcare facilities is essential for convenience and quality of life. The block’s accessibility, including the quality of roads and public transportation options, will impact daily living and long-term value. Compliance with local zoning and land-use regulations is necessary to avoid legal issues and ensure a smooth building process. Finally, consider the potential for long-term growth and development, including the region’s economic and demographic trends, to make a well-informed decision about your acreage home’s location.
