Every ZAC home is personal. We listen first, design thoughtfully and build with care so the home feels right long after move-in day. Peter Zaccazan, Founder
House + Land
Yes. We offer carefully selected House + Land packages in growth corridors and established communities. These packages combine thoughtfully designed homes with suitable blocks to simplify the path to building.
Unlike typical project-style packages, our designs remain flexible. You can personalise layouts, upgrade specifications and refine finishes to ensure the home reflects how you live.
Our team will guide you through land selection, design suitability and budgeting to ensure the package aligns with your long-term goals.
Yes. We can deliver fully turnkey homes.
A turnkey build means your home is move-in ready at handover, including flooring, landscaping, driveways, fencing and essential internal finishes.
We provide clear documentation of what is included upfront, so you understand exactly what is covered within your contract. Our goal is to remove ambiguity and ensure you move into a completed home – not a list of post-handover tasks.
The most effective way to avoid unexpected costs is to invest time and money upfront.
Clear documentation, early site assessment, and informed selections all play a critical role. At Homes By ZAC, we focus on identifying site conditions early, providing realistic allowances, and guiding selections before construction begins. This approach reduces late changes and helps ensure pricing reflects the home you actually want to build – rather than assumptions.
A typical ZAC build takes around 8–12 months from the start of construction, depending on the design, approvals, and site conditions.
Before construction begins, there is also a planning and design phase, which includes concept design, documentation, and council or CDC approvals. We guide you through each stage, setting clear expectations upfront and maintaining open communication throughout the process.
Building a home can feel overwhelming - but it doesn’t need to be.
Our role is to guide, simplify, and support you through each stage, making informed decisions feel manageable. Clear processes, realistic expectations, and open communication are central to how we work.
Yes. We regularly build homes from customer-supplied, DA-approved plans.
The first step is a detailed feasibility and documentation review. We assess the architectural drawings, engineering, specifications and site conditions to ensure the design is structurally sound, buildable, and aligned with your budget expectations.
Where required, we may recommend refinements to improve construction efficiency, compliance, or cost clarity – without compromising the design intent. Once documentation is confirmed, we prepare a transparent, itemised proposal outlining scope, allowances and timelines.
Our role is to translate your approved design into a well-managed construction outcome – with clear communication and disciplined delivery from contract through to handover.
We build across Sydney and surrounding regions, focusing on locations where design quality, craftsmanship, and thoughtful planning add genuine value.
You can check our Build Map to see if we’re currently building in your area or call our team to check your particular address. We constantly reassess our build zones, so if you’re unsure whether your site falls within our build area, we’re happy to discuss your location and advise early.
No. You can speak with us at any stage - whether you already own land, are considering a purchase, or are still exploring options.
In fact, engaging early can be valuable. We can help assess site potential, constraints, and opportunities before you commit, ensuring your future home is designed with clarity and confidence from the outset.
Yes. We coordinate the design documentation, approvals process, and any required consultants as part of the journey.
Our role is to simplify what can otherwise feel complex, keeping you informed while managing the technical details behind the scenes.
The investment required to build a home with ZAC varies depending on your site conditions, design approach, level of customisation and the finishes you choose. Rather than quoting a headline figure, we focus on helping you understand what drives cost – and how those decisions connect back to how you want to live.
From the outset, we provide realistic guidance based on comparable projects, detailed site assessments, and transparent allowances. We break down where your budget is being allocated – structure, site works, selections, and specification – so you can see exactly how your home is coming together financially.
Importantly, we don’t just price a design. We work with you to shape a home that aligns with your lifestyle priorities and your investment comfort zone. That may mean refining scope, adjusting levels of finish, or reconfiguring elements to achieve better value without compromising the intent.
Our role is to remove uncertainty. By combining early clarity, structured cost planning and ongoing communication, we help you move forward with confidence – knowing your home has been thoughtfully designed and realistically budgeted from day one.
Homes by ZAC is design-led, detail-focused, and life-first in approach.
We invest time upfront to understand how you live, how the site behaves, and how the home should feel - now and into the future. The result is a home that is considered, enduring, and genuinely personal.
What also sets ZAC apart is that the business is still owner-led and owner-involved. Our directors remain actively engaged in the company day to day – across design, documentation and construction oversight. That means decisions are not filtered through layers of management, and accountability is direct.
With more than 30 years of experience, we bring depth of knowledge to every stage of the process. We anticipate complexity, manage detail behind the scenes, and provide clear guidance when decisions matter.
You’re not working with a production system. You’re working with experienced professionals who are personally invested in the quality, execution and outcome of every home we build.
