Where We Build
At Tingey Development Group, we don’t just build homes – we craft your personal sanctuary to reflect your lifestyle and vision. With more than 30 years of combined experience, founders Geoff and Brooke Tingey have developed a deeply personal, boutique approach to building. Whether you’re drawn to the serenity of coastal living, the charm of the hills or the convenience of a thriving urban hub, we work closely with you to bring your dream home to life down to the finest detail.
Building Across Perth’s Most Liveable Locations
Perth offers a rich variety of landscapes and lifestyles, and no two suburbs are the same. That’s why every Tingey home is uniquely designed to suit its location, from materials and orientation to layout and finish.
We will take the time to understand the architectural character and environmental conditions of each area. Whether it’s harnessing sea breezes in Yanchep or designing smart spaces for inner-city builds, our homes are as practical as they are beautiful.
Why Location Matters When Building a Home
Where you build shapes how you live. Choosing the right location is one of the most important decisions when building a home. A home in the hills calls for a connection to nature. A beachside sanctuary leans into indoor-outdoor living. A lock-and-leave city home prioritises clean lines and convenience. We guide our clients through the nuances of their location in how it affects their build’s design, layout and even the long-term value of your property.
What to consider when choosing where to build your home:
Proximity to Schools and Amenities:
Have a growing family? Suburbs with easy access to quality education, parks and recreational spaces are important to consider in your location.
Transport and Accessibility:
If you’re working the corporate 9-5, you might prioritise locations with strong transport links and proximity to the CBD.
Community and Lifestyle Offerings:
Coastal lovers, nature enthusiasts or those seeking a vibrant city lifestyle will have different requirements.
Resale Value and Investment
The suburb you build in can also influence the future resale value of your home. Working with a builder who understands local trends and market demands ensures your home will retain its value and appeal over time.
