Builder in Mount Eliza
Taylor Built builds custom homes, knockdown rebuilds and major renovations in Mount Eliza, from the bayside streets above Canadian Bay and Davey's Bay to the larger leafy blocks inland.
Every project is run personally by Taylor, with one point of contact from the first site visit to handover.
Building in Mount Eliza
Mount Eliza blocks are often generous, established and sloping, with mature trees and views to Port Phillip Bay. That makes for beautiful homes, but it also means the site needs careful planning before design is locked in: access for machinery, retaining and drainage on the slope, and protecting the trees and landscape that give the area its character.
Many properties sit under vegetation and landscape controls, so tree removal and site works can need planning approval. We work with your architect or designer early so footings, levels and access are resolved with these controls in mind, and priced properly from the start.
What we build in Mount Eliza
Custom and architectural homes designed around the slope, the view and the garden
Knockdown rebuilds replacing older homes that no longer suit the block or the family
Renovations and extensions, including second storeys that open up bay views
Design and construct for owners who want one team from concept to handover
Questions from Mount Eliza owners
Is it better to renovate or knock down and rebuild?
It depends on the condition of the existing home, how well it uses the block and what you want from the finished house. We are happy to walk the site with you and give an honest view on cost and buildability for both options.
Can you build on a steep block with established trees?
Yes. We assess access, retaining, drainage and tree protection early, so they are part of the plan and the price rather than a surprise on site.
