With a strong emphasis on tailored design, we work closely with developers to deliver villa developments that reflect the needs of the target market. Every villa development is unique and our team is skilled in tailoring solutions that meet the specific needs of the target market. Each project is aligned with market expectations and developer goals.
Our comprehensive approach to villa construction guarantees a product that stands out in a competitive market, offering both quality and value.

While the term ‘villa’ brings a sun-drenched Mediterranean holiday to mind, in Australia a residential villa typically means a single-storey building within a development.
Residential villas, sometimes referred to as townhouses (which are typically split over more levels), generally have their own garage with internal access with smaller private courtyards, rather than gardens.
What type of plot is suitable for a villa development?
In villa developments, the efficient use of land is critical, so that should be your first consideration when looking at a residential villa development.
At Novus Projects, we focus on optimising every square metre to ensure that the final product delivers value to both developers and future residents.
Our designs emphasise open-plan living areas, strategic placement of windows for natural light and the integration of outdoor spaces, all while keeping construction costs in check. This approach allows us to create homes that feel spacious without compromising on budget or build quality.
Aside from the size, other factors to take into account when considering a plot for a residential villa development are its accessibility, zoning and local council restrictions.
What are the rules for villa development?
Villa developments, just like any other developments, have to adhere to state and local government legislation, which is primarily centred around the Residential Design Codes (R-Codes).
These rules govern the density allowable for each block, depending on its size and surroundings, as well as the density of the suburb it’s in.
Due to the housing shortage in Western Australia, planning regulations are under constant review, so it’s worth speaking to a developer with experience and keeping up to date with any changes.

One of the obvious advantages of a residential villa development is that the process can be more streamlined than other developments due to the uniformity of the villas. With a villa development, developers can consider pre-designed plans, reducing the potential timeline. A custom development, with mixed housing, can take longer.
Residential villa developments are popular with both first-time homebuyers and downsizers. This popularity translates into increased profit potential and higher returns.
Are there any considerations?
As with all investments, you must do your research. There has to be market demand in the area you select for your development, otherwise it will struggle regardless of its quality.
You should also make sure to partner with the right developer or builder so that you can trust they will bring your project in on time and on budget.
Our strategic approach
Our streamlined construction processes are designed to minimise delays and ensure that projects are completed on schedule and within budget.
By leveraging our extensive experience and strong relationships with suppliers and contractors, we are able to maintain a high standard of quality while keeping the project timeline on track.
Understanding your objectives
First and foremost we need to understand your goals. Do you want to buy, build and sell? Buy, build and rent? Or perhaps a combination of the two?
Research and advice
We conduct a preliminary development assessment to ensure the project is viable and that the project can meet your expectations in terms of investment returns.
Coordinating and managing design outcomes
This is based on the brief and budget, as well as ensuring compliance and approvals and all necessary construction documentation.
