Custom build is the best of both worlds. It allows you to enjoy the excitement and creativity of designing your home to perfectly match your lifestyle and budget; but takes away the responsibility and risk of construction, site management and compliance with Health and Safety Regulations. 

Villages for Life’s custom build service removes the frustration of self-build, without stifling your control over the design and specification of your dream home. 

Your journey with our team of industry professionals will follow these stages:

• Your Plot

You may already have a plot in mind, either with or without Planning Consent. Or you may look to us to guide you through the process of finding a plot either in your ideal location or one which we have already identified in one of our development projects. 

• Your Design

Our architectural team will assist you in creating the house design which meets your needs and maximises the plot’s potential. You will choose layouts finishes and features which make the home truly yours, and ensure it exceeds all the performance standards expected of modern living. If necessary, our architects will also co-ordinate the statutory compliance and consent with the Local Authority for Planning and Building Warrant.

• Your Budget

As your design develops, we will advise you on all the budget considerations for your new home, ensuring that the financial risk of your project is expertly controlled and managed. 

• Your Innovative Build

We will discuss with you the various options available for the construction of your home. Once that decision is taken, we manage the rest of the build for you. We exclusively use modern methods of construction and the build system we recommend will incorporate up to the minute the materials and technologies. This will mean that your home can be constructed for a fixed price; be built on site in the shortest possible time; and deliver a first class, comfortable and efficient living environment for you.

• Your Peace of Mind

Throughout the construction process you will be able to monitor the progress of the build -  all the finishes, equipment and features will be as you have specified during the design process. 
Finally you will end up with your new home, just as you want it!
