Looking to build on the Northern Beaches? We’re here to help.

I began my journey in construction in Austria as an engineering student. During the holidays, I worked as a labourer, where I discovered my passion for the hands-on nature of home building over commercial projects. Since then, I’ve devoted my career to creating beautiful, high-quality homes. Alongside my wife Mel, who oversees finance and culture, our daughter Daisy, who manages finishes, and our son-in-law Marc, the general manager and a licensed builder, we’re a close-knit team with deep roots in the community, ensuring a personal and hands-on approach.

Proud locals serving the Northern Beaches and North Shore regions

I was lucky enough to land in the Northern Beaches when I arrived from Austria and have never left. Why wouldn’t you want to live somewhere that feels like a holiday every day? Mel and I have raised our family here and now we all live within kilometres of each other in Manly. We can’t see ourselves anywhere else. Having built in the region for over 30 years, we know it like the back of our hand. Even our tradespeople and suppliers are all locals to the area. With our deep local knowledge, we can help you navigate the challenges of building in the region and working with the local council with ease. Whether you already own land or are searching for the perfect plot, we’re here to help you navigate the journey of building your dream home.

Customised knockdown rebuilds for a unique community

Homes that blend with the environment while making a statement

We design and build custom homes, tailored to fit your specific needs and preferences as well as the shape, size and aspect of your land. Our expertise shines in tackling the unique challenges of the Northern Beaches – from designing on sloping blocks to ensuring compliance with strict flood and flame zone regulations. We love to take on the blocks that others in the industry prefer not to touch. Marc and I are well-known in the region for having a knack for problem solving. Being able to identify potential problems in the plans to prevent costly and time-consuming issues down the track is one of our strengths. This forward-thinking approach ensures that your home not only meets but exceeds your expectations in both design and functionality.

We are a close-knit team bound together by our commitment to be and do the best that we can. You’ll see the same dedicated faces through each part of your building journey – people who know our business intimately and have been instrumental in shaping who we are and how we operate today. We can’t wait to create something extraordinary with you.

Wattle Court Homes – Sydney North

"Wattle have involved us from beginning to end, checking on the smallest details and always being available to answer questions. The workmanship and quality of our build is of the highest quality, and we highly recommend them - we would not hesitate to use them again and again!"

Leanne G

"The craftsmanship and attention to detail in the finished home are outstanding. The team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and it truly shows in the quality of the build. Their communication throughout the project was excellent, keeping me informed and involved at all times."

Peter C

"The quality of the build has been great, there was minimal downtime between trades / stages of the build, keeping us on schedule (or slightly ahead of schedule) to get the keys to the front door in a week or so. We highly recommend Wattle Court Southern Highlands."
