Building New Homes Across The Gold Coast

When you build with Clarendon, you work with a team of home builders that Gold Coast families trust, because they understand how they live. From emerging communities to long-loved suburbs, we guide you through what is possible on your land and help you choose a design that makes the most of your orientation, outlook and lifestyle.

A visit to our Gold Coast display home is often the moment everything becomes real. Walking through a completed home lets you experience light, space and comfort in a way that is hard to picture on paper, giving you confidence as you shape your plans.

Our SkyRidge Display Home in Worongary is the heart of our Gold Coast experience. Here, you can explore three beautifully finished homes that showcase the quality, craftsmanship and thoughtful detail that define Clarendon living.

SkyRidge Display Home – Worongary

When you visit in person, you can move through each room at your own pace, notice how the spaces connect and get a genuine feel for scale, storage and natural light. It is a far richer experience than simply scrolling through galleries, and it often helps families quickly understand what matters most in their new home.

Our New Home Consultants are on site 7 days a week to answer questions, explain layout options and help you picture how your chosen design could work on your block. You can also explore more display homes in the Gold Coast if you would like to compare layouts or gather further inspiration.

Gold-coast bayside-360

Why Build With Clarendon On The Gold Coast

Families choose us because we are Gold Coast builders who value confidence, experience and guidance from a team who understands local building conditions. We offer:

  • A regional team familiar with Gold Coast suburbs, estates and land requirements.

  • A display home where you can see finished Clarendon homes up close.

  • Established supplier networks across southeast Queensland.

  • A Lifetime Structural Guarantee for added reassurance.

Home Designs For Gold Coast Blocks

Gold Coast blocks range widely in size and shape, and our home designs are created with flexibility to suit this variety. Whether your land sits in a new estate or a leafy hinterland pocket, our designs balance natural light, privacy and everyday practicality.

Single Storey Designs

Single storey house designs on the Gold Coast suit many suburbs where 12.5 m to 16 m-wide blocks are common, especially in Coomera, Pimpama and Ormeau. Clarendon offers several single storey ranges that align well with these lot sizes and coastal conditions.

  • Aspire single storey range
    Designed for 12.5 m-wide suburban lots. Open-plan layouts, wide eaves and covered outdoor areas support bright, coastal-friendly living.

  • Luxe single storey range
    Suited to 16 m-wide blocks across suburbs like Helensvale and Robina. These designs offer larger living zones and breezy indoor-outdoor flow.

  • Nevada Series

    A flexible single storey series with various floor-plan and lot-width options. Shaded alfresco areas and good cross-ventilation help these homes stay comfortable year-round.

Double Storey Designs

Double-storey homes work well across the region, and our role as Gold Coast builders helps us understand how these designs suit suburbs with narrower lots or elevated outlooks. They maximise backyard space and capture cooling breezes.

  • Aspire double storey designs
    Suited to up to 14 m-wide lots in areas like Coomera and Pimpama. These layouts offer open-plan living downstairs with peaceful bedrooms upstairs.

  • Luxe double storey designs

     Designed for 12.5 m and wider blocks in suburbs such as Helensvale and Robina. Larger living zones and shaded outdoor spaces complement the subtropical climate.

Subtropical Design Features

Gold Coast homes need to perform well through warm summers, seasonal rain and coastal air. Clarendon’s designs include features that support natural comfort and long-term durability.

  • Cross-ventilation
    Floor plans are arranged to encourage airflow through main living areas, helping homes stay cool without relying solely on air-conditioning.

  • Wide eaves
    Extra shading protects interiors from harsh sun and provides cover during summer storms.

  • Coastal-ready materials
    Durable finishes and thoughtful inclusions help withstand humidity and salt air.

  • Raised floor heights where needed

    Useful on sites that benefit from improved drainage during wet periods.

Where We Build On The Gold Coast

Clarendon builds across many of the Gold Coast’s most popular suburbs and estates. If you own land, our team can assess your block early so you understand your options clearly.

Northern Gold Coast To Southern Suburbs

We build in the Northern suburbs including Coomera, Upper Coomera, Pimpama, Ormeau and Oxenford, as well as across the Central Gold Coast in Helensvale, Robina and Varsity Lakes. In the Southern coastal suburbs, we cover Burleigh Heads, Burleigh Waters and Palm Beach, and we also build in the Hinterland areas of Tallebudgera and Tallebudgera Valley. 

If your suburb is not listed, you can filter by suburb or postcode on our where we build page. Our team can also confirm availability and assess your block for suitability.

Active Gold Coast Estates

We are currently building in the SkyRidge community in Worongary, home to our SkyRidge Display Home and a growing number of Clarendon builds.

We also support clients building across a range of emerging and established estates throughout the northern Gold Coast corridor, including Coomera, Pimpama and Ormeau, depending on land availability and estate guidelines.

If you are planning to build in a new or upcoming estate, our team can confirm availability and guide you through any estate-specific requirements. Explore our house and land packages in Queensland if you are searching for the right community or lot to begin your build.

The Building Process

When working with a house builder on the Gold Coast, understanding your building journey helps you feel confident and supported from the start. Our team guides you through each step with clear communication and expert advice.

Design Selection And Personalisation

Your journey begins with choosing a home design that suits your land and lifestyle. You can then personalise floor plan features, select your facade and refine interior finishes at our Lifestyle Studio. Seeing materials in person often brings your home’s character to life.

Approvals And Construction Timeline

A typical Gold Coast build moves through council approvals and construction in a clear sequence. Gold Coast City Council approvals usually take around 5 to 10 weeks in total, with development assessment and building approval completed during this period. Once construction begins, most homes progress through site preparation, slab, frame, lockup, internal fit-out and final finishing over 6 to 8 months, depending on site conditions, weather and design complexity. 

In most cases, the full journey from contract signing to handover takes approximately 7 to 10 months, with your consultant providing a timeline tailored to your land and chosen design.

Yes. As a house builder Gold Coast residents trust, Clarendon builds on client-owned land across the Gold Coast. Your block will need a registered title, access to essential services and council zoning that permits residential use. If you are unsure about your site, our team can assess your land early in the process to confirm suitability before you make any commitments.

What's included in a Clarendon Home?

Standard inclusions cover key items such as site costs, council fees, essential service connections, energy-compliance requirements and the core finishes within your chosen design. Optional extras, including landscaping, fencing, driveway extensions and upgraded finishes, can be added during your selections appointment so your home reflects your personal style.
