The prospect of building on your own can be intimidating, but it can also be one of the most empowering and rewarding decisions you’ll ever make. That’s the message from Geelong-based customer, Tania, who recently built the Barcelona 28 with Contempo façade – absolutely solo!
‘Any big investment can be stressful, especially when doing it on your own. You don’t have someone to bounce ideas off or go to for reassurance,’ reflects Tania.
‘But building your dream home on your own is possible! It just takes planning and discipline.’

That, and the right team in your corner. Tania first heard about Boutique Homes from her friend seven years ago. An interior design enthusiast, Tania spent many weekends on the display home circuit over the years, but it wasn’t until she entered the Barcelona 32 at Gen Fyansford that she knew she had found ‘The One.’
‘I fell in love – the plan was well thought out, spacious, and light and bright. Having the theatre and office located at the front of the house also suited my business needs, keeping clients out of the living areas,’ says the freelance make-up artist.
‘I loved the walk-in robe and the nook in the master bedroom, which was perfect for setting up my personal beauty collection. I’ve also never lived in a house with such an open and spacious kitchen – I loved the wraparound bench and deep island.’
A fan of light-filled spaces, Tania opted for the Contempo façade with its wraparound window feature. ‘The façade includes beautiful, large windows the entire length of the master bedroom which, when coupled with the high ceilings, let in so much natural light and look stunning with floor-length sheer curtains.’
