Why Families in South Australia Choose Metricon Homes

At Metricon, we understand that it takes more than just good plans to build a home that truly works. We have over 45 years of experience helping families shape high-quality homes with practical layouts, trusted guidance, and a clear process from day one.

Our multi-award-winning home designs balance flexibility with function, giving you the right space, in the right place, with the right support.

Home Designs for the Way South Australians Live

Your block, your budget, and your plans all shape the kind of home that makes sense for you. That’s why The Metricon Range includes single-storey and double-storey homes designed to suit the way South Australians live: practical, flexible, and built for real life.

  • HomeSolution: Just starting out? These homes are designed to make home ownership more achievable for first-home buyers. With simple layouts, quality inclusions, and a clear path from planning to build, it’s a solid first step.
  • Freedom: Whether in metro Adelaide or a regional block, these home designs give your family space to grow without overcomplicating the build. Choose from designs with open-plan living and flexible zones that suit everyday life.
  • Designer: Want a home designed around how you live now and in the future? Our Designer homes give you more control over the finer details. You’ll get well-zoned living areas, upgraded inclusions, and the freedom to tailor your floor plan.
  • Signature: Our Signature home designs are all about building your home, your way. From custom design to architectural detail, this range is ideal for South Australians planning a long-term move or their forever family home.

Metricon also knows that some blocks need more than just a standard layout. That’s why our DualOcc house designs offer a practical solution for multi-generational living or adding value through a second dwelling. For those with wider or rural blocks, The Acreage Collection features generous floor plans made for open spaces, comfort, and easy family living.

From Plans to Keys, We're With You Every Step of the Way

With Metricon Homes, we keep things clear from your first conversation with us right through to handover. You’ll have the support of new home builders who listen, offer practical advice, and give you peace of mind at every stage. From choosing a floor plan to finalising your inclusions, our process is built around your needs, not the other way around.

With decades of building experience behind us, we’ve helped thousands of South Australians build homes that feel right from day one. The feedback from families we’ve built for, speaks volumes about the care and consistency we bring to every home.
