House & Land Packages Northern NSW

A house and land package means your new home and the block of land it sits on are bundled together from the start. That means fewer decisions to chase, less back-and-forth, and a more stress-free start to your home build.

At Metricon, we make all that even clearer from day one. You’ll know exactly what’s included, how much it costs, and what’s next in the building process. Our house & land packages also come with fixed pricing, high-quality inclusions, and home designs made for Australian conditions. It’s all about giving you more certainty, more control, and a brand-new home that feels right from the beginning.

Northern NSW gives you options that are getting harder to find elsewhere. There’s more space, more flexibility, and more ways to build a home that fits how you live, without stretching your budget. That’s why more people are building here, for all kinds of reasons, at all stages of life.

• First home buyers: In places like Lismore and Ballina, getting into the market feels more possible. You’ll find affordable options all close to the Northern Rivers lifestyle. It’s a smart way to take that first step into the real estate market without overcommitting.
• Growing families: You’re not just looking for space. You’re looking for somewhere that works long-term. In Lochinvar, Maitland, and Chisholm, you’ll find land estates with room to move, nearby schools, and great links to Newcastle and the Central Coast. These parts of the Hunter Region make it easier to build a home that suits family life now and later.
• Investors: With strong demand in areas like Port Macquarie and Corindi Beach, plus continued growth in the North Coast and inland centres like Chisholm, Northern NSW is a solid long-term play. It’s a chance to invest in homes without the premium you’d pay in the south west.
• Upgraders and downsizers: Maybe you want a change of pace or just a home that fits your life now. Whether you’re heading to the Central Coast or North Coast, there’s a mix of house designs and block types to suit. From low-maintenance living to more space to stretch out, it’s a fresh start on your terms.

With a Metricon house and land package, you get a straightforward way to build in one of New South Wales' most livable regions, with smart designs and the kind of lifestyle that makes it all worth it.
 

Metricon knows how to match the right home to the right block and make the whole process feel simpler from the start. With our award-winning single-storey and double-storey home designs, plus a local team that knows Northern NSW, you’ll have the support and options to build something that works for how you live.

Here’s what that can look like with The Metricon Range:

• HomeSolution: Building for the first time? These home designs keep things simple without missing the must-haves. Functional layouts, smart use of space, and pricing that helps you get in the door sooner.
• Freedom: Got a growing family or need extra room? Our Freedom homes offer more space, more flexibility, and a range of house designs to suit the way you live now and where you’re headed next.
• Designer: Want more control over the details? Metricon’s Designer homes give you the freedom to shape your space, with customisable floor plans, upgraded finishes, and facades that make a strong first impression.
• Signature: If you're building your forever home, Signature house designs give you the tools to make it yours. From top to bottom, it's tailored with premium inclusions, full design flexibility, and the confidence that comes with a Metricon build.

Got a block that’s a bit tricky? Our Narrow Lot Collection is made for tighter frontages, with designs that maximise space, light and flow. Building on a larger site? Our Acreage Collection gives you room to stretch out, with layouts built for open blocks and rural settings.

You can walk through these designs in person at one of our display homes in Northern NSW, or take a 3D virtual tour from home. Either way, you’ll get a real feel for what’s possible and how Metricon can help make it happen.

We get this question a lot, and the truth is, it depends on a few things. But what doesn’t change is how upfront we are about it. With fixed pricing from the start, you’ll know exactly what your new house includes and what it’s going to cost, long before the build begins.

Here’s what can shape the final price:

• Lot size: Bigger blocks can mean more site work or prep before we start building
• Inclusions: Going for upgraded finishes? We’ll walk you through what that adds to the price
• Home design: Your layout, floor area and facade all play a part
• Site conditions: Sloped land, soil type or tight access can affect the overall build cost
• Location: Planning rules and connection costs can vary across suburbs
• Build type: If you’re adding a second dwelling or going split-level, that’ll factor in too

Not sure what that means for your block and budget? Use our online calculators to estimate your build cost, loan repayments or stamp duty. It’s all there to help you plan with real numbers, not ballpark guesses.

If you’re keen to move quickly, ask us about our FastTrack Your Build service. It’s a smarter way to get moving, without the usual delays.

Already have a block? We can help you build your home around it. Or, if you want to replace what’s there with something that works better, our KnockDown ReBuild service means you can stay right where you are and still start fresh. While landscaping isn’t part of the package, we’re always happy to offer advice, so your outdoor space comes together with the same confidence as everything else.

Wherever you’re building in Australia, we’ll help you do it well with clear answers, smart designs, and a team that backs you from planning to handover. Get in touch with our team and let’s talk about building a home that feels right for your block, your budget, and the way you want to live.

1. Who qualifies for the First Home Buyers Grant?

If you're building for the first time, you may be eligible for the First Home Owners Grant. Chat with our team to see what support could be available as a first-time homeowner.

2. Can you change the facade of a house?

Yes. Many of our house designs come with more than one facade option, so you can choose the look that suits you best. It’s an easy way to add street appeal without changing the layout.

3. What does fixed price mean when buying a house and land package?

It means you’ll know exactly what your home will cost upfront—no hidden extras or surprises later. The price is locked in before the build begins, so you can plan with confidence.

4. How much does it cost to build a new home with Metricon?

It depends on your block, floor plan, and the inclusions you choose. What stays the same is our clear pricing and upfront advice, so you know where your budget’s going.

5. Can you build on sloped land?

Yes. We have smart house designs for sloping blocks. We’ll help you find a home that fits the land, not the other way around.
