About Pacific Blue

26 Years on the Sunshine Coast. 435 Homes built.

Pacific Blue builds bespoke homes on the Sunshine Coast. Not from templates. Not from catalogues. From the way you want to live.

Every Pacific Blue home begins with Studio Sora, our exclusive in-house design studio. They listen before they draw. They design around your life, not a floor plan. And because they work within our team, every idea they explore is already grounded in what we know about construction, cost, and delivery.

The result is a home that looks exactly as it was imagined. Delivered on time, on budget, and without compromise.

Featured project

Set across a private acreage parcel, Riverlily is a home designed and delivered to sit comfortably within its environment. Considered in scale, highly functional, and built for the way this family lives day to day. With a large, open site to respond to, the home has been carefully positioned and proportioned to feel like part of the landscape, while still creating a strong presence. The layout has been resolved to balance connection and separation, allowing key living zones to open up for entertaining, while maintaining quieter, more private areas across the home.

“No surprises, no compromises. They delivered exactly what they promised, on time and on budget.”
James Richardson
Homeowner, Sunshine Coast
“The Pacific Blue team has exceeded our expectations, and we are so grateful for their expertise, reliability and trustworthiness during the process of building our first home. They were totally transparent in their work, and kept us informed throughout. The site is a rural acreage with a long narrow easement driveway, sloped block, minimal access, poor soil with bushfire and covenant constraints.

The team took these potential issues in their stride, and always had solutions/options to any concerns that arose.The moment we handed our project over to the Pacific Blue team, it was stress free and such an enjoyable experience. We found that going through the design ideas, selections and estimates that they were immensely helpful and patient. Our build was completed in less than the time of the build contract, and to an extremely high standard. Their eye for detail is impeccable and we couldn’t be happier with how our house was presented on the day of handover. We are immensely thankful to the amazing Pacific Blue team, and would highly recommend them to anyone wanting an enjoyable, stress free and exceptional quality build."

“Our first building experience was a dream with the team from Pacific Blue Developments.

As a custom home builder, we were very impressed with their ideas and support throughout the whole build process. All their team, and contractors, were easy to deal with and professional, which was important to us especially as we were living on site during the build. No idea or issue was too big for the Pacific Blue team to accommodate, including my 7am Monday request for specific insulation on the day of plastering!

Our home is perfect for our rural lifestyle, which only a custom home designer can offer by working with us for a personalised plan for our block and our family and farming needs.

We would not hesitate to recommend Cameron, Drew and their team to help design the home of your dreams. Thankyou Pacific Blue Custom Homes!"

“From the very first conversation with Pacific Blue, we were impressed. After speaking to quite a few builders we had finally found someone who was willing to listen to our thoughts and ideas and not just give us their opinion of what they could do for us.
The next step was to have a face to face conversation with Studio SORA. They were so engaging and really helpful, listening to all our plans and ideas and making us feel like anything was possible. We left feeling really excited and impatient to see what they came back to us with.

Fast forward after more face to face meetings and throwing lots of ideas around, we were so happy with the design we came up with. Between the team, Pacific Blue have created the most beautiful, liveable , individual and beautifully crafted home. It really has the Wow factor ! All our friends are just blown away by it. Drew led the boys onsite who were all so polite and accommodating to our visits and requests and Drew liaised with us constantly and once again nothing was too much trouble.

In the background everyone worked behind the scenes keeping all the orders coming through in time (all during the most challenging of covid times) We love our beautiful new home and have never been more happy with a builder. We have built a few times now but this is the favourite by far. We would recommend Pacific Blue to everyone. Call them and have a chat . They will build you your dream home that you will never want to leave."

“We had the absolute best experience designing and building our dream home in Marcoola with Pacific Blue! The whole team was extremely helpful, professional and so easy to work with.

We were able to customise our build along the way to ensure the end result was exactly what we wanted. The Pacific Blue team were so patient and went above and beyond to bring our dream home to life!

Their communication and quality of work absolutely exceeded our expectations as first time home builders. Highly recommend."

“We couldn't be happier with the overall service & product we received from the whole Pacific Blue team. They met every request of ours throughout the build with a can do attitude, and the finished home we received couldn't have turned out any more beautiful.

They navigated the difficult building climate with great professionalism which put us at ease in a time that could have been incredibly stressful. We have been recommending the PB team since the moment we met with them, and will continute to do so. If we ever build again it will most certainly be with Pacific Blue."

“With not knowing any builders we were very nervous about the whole process talking to other builders it was obvious to us that Pacific Blue were the one for us.

From the initial consultation to the final handover the entire team at Pacific Blue have been outstanding. They actually listened to what we wanted and worked with us to accommodate our design wishes and our budget needs.

Our site manager and the trades involved were all top notch and there was no problem with communication through the build. Likewise with any issues that were raised there was no delay in getting things reworked or amended.

The final product is a fantastic home that is well above other builders.

Can't rate them highly enough!! 10/10"

“The process of building our house from our very first appointment with Pacific Blue through to the final handover was nothing short of amazing.

The planning phase was so thorough and considered, and once the actual build commenced, we had absolute confidence that Pacific Blue was going to deliver a house that is absolutely spectacular!! And they did not disappoint!! The communication by all members of the team was outstanding from start to finish.

We had a challenging block of land to build on and this was no impediment to Pacific Blue creating us a house that maximised the land and made the best use of the block.

We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Pacific Blue as a builder. They were fantastic to work with!"

“We built our dream home and granny flat with Pacific Blue and would build with them again in a heartbeat.

All team members are professional, collaborative, experts in their areas, and very easy to work with. They have great communication with their clients at every step of the construction process.

We’re so happy with the end result - very high quality finishes and attention to detail. I highly recommend the Pacific Blue team and can’t wait to work with them again."

“Have to firstly say we never thought people will be coming up to us and saying I LOVE YOUR HOUSE, IT’S the BEST HOUSE in the street.

We have had nothing but a great experience dealing with Pacific Blue Custom Homes. Every member that we dealt with at Pacific Blue were professional, competent and genuinely caring people.

We felt very fortunate that our home build ran very smoothly considering knowing and hearing the many horror stories that are out there with builders and building catastrophes.

The whole team from start to finish along with the entire experience being impressive from the initial greeting, the original design stage and the selection process with Studio SORA, and to the key handover with Drew and Tim.

Thanks Pacific Blue from Duane & Jenny

PS. Not to forget that the after care has been extremely efficient."

“We had the pleasure of meeting Kevin and his sons, Cameron and Drew in 2006. Pacific Blue have built numerous investment properties for us, as well as our home.

The level of care, professionalism and guidance by all members of their team is second to none. This is a family business, surrounded by a great team and wonderful trades that support their business.

We have recommended Pacific Blue to numerous friends who have engaged their services from design to completion. We highly recommend Pacific Blue."

“We recently built a custom home with Pacific Blue and we cannot rate them highly enough. The whole experience was an absolute pleasure - the team at PB is extremely knowledgeable and helpful... nothing ever seems too hard!

“From concept to the realisation of our beautiful beach home we have been so impressed with Cameron, Drew and the entire Pacific Blue team. Studio SORA listened to our ideas and cleverly crafted plans which exceeded our expectations. They were  alongside us from day one with imagination, innovation, dedication and a positive can do attitude. Drew managed the project professionally and always made us feel fully included in the process.

The project was managed within budget and ahead of schedule. This was not our first build but it was certainly our most enjoyable. Can’t thank the team enough and would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone considering building. Greg and Angela Ashmead"

“We completed a demolition and new build at Golden Beach with Pacific Blue Developments. There assistance with finalising our vision from start to finish was impeccable.

The communication and access to the site was thoughtful and appreciated. We have recommended them to numerous associates and businesses and would have zero hesitation in recommending them for any future builds. The team are first class."

"We recently had our home built by Pacific Blue, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. Having built before, we were nervous about taking the leap again but from our very first meeting, the team put us completely at ease. They made the entire process feel simple, clear, and enjoyable. Studio SORA really heard our ideas and translated them perfectly into our plans. One of the things that impressed us most was the truly bespoke nature of the build and nothing felt rushed. Every element was tailored to suit our lifestyle, taste and needs. Their input ensured that every part of the home felt beautifully considered and unique to us. Scott’s project management was another standout, his organized and proactive approach kept everything on track, with no request too hard, and the level of communication throughout the entire build was outstanding. We always knew exactly where things were at, and any questions or concerns were addressed quickly and clearly. Every single team member we interacted with was a pleasure to deal with... friendly, professional, and genuinely invested in the quality of the work. It was clear to us that they take great pride in what they do.Thanks to the entire team, we’ve now moved into our dream home and couldn’t be happier! We can’t recommend Pacific Blue highly enough!"

“From the very beginning, they truly understood what we wanted as a family and brought it to life with the design we had in mind. The house turned out to be beautiful, and the quality of the work is excellent. Every idea and feature we hoped to include in our home was carefully delivered, and we really appreciate the effort, care, and professionalism shown throughout the entire process. This home is something very special to us, it’s the home I always dreamed of for my small family, and Pacific Blue made that dream a reality.We are extremely happy with the result and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to build their dream home."
Suaad Ahmed
Homeowner, Sunshine Coast
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience building with Pacific Blue. We absolutely love our home, it’s beautifully finished, thoughtfully designed, and feels like a dream come to life. We still find ourselves looking around and pinching ourselves that this is actually ours! A huge thank you to the entire team. Scott and the construction crew did an incredible job bringing everything together with such care. The SORA team's design and interiors are incredible. Heidi and Charlie were also fantastic... always helpful, responsive, and so patient with all the admin queries. From start to finish, the whole process was seamless and genuinely enjoyable. The team was professional, supportive, and clearly passionate about what they do. We are already recommending Pacific Blue to anyone who asks and wouldn’t hesitate to build with them again in the future. Thank you again for creating a home we truly love.

The Pacific Blue Process

01

Discovery and planning

DISCOVERY AND PLANNING

Discovery and planning

Every project begins with understanding. Before design starts, we take the time to learn about your site, your lifestyle and what you are trying to achieve. This includes early site analysis, reviewing constraints like contours and orientation, and aligning your vision with realistic budget expectations. We guide you through what’s possible, what’s required, and where opportunities exist.

02

Concept Design

CONCEPT DESIGN

Concept Design

This is where your brief begins to take shape. We translate your ideas, priorities, and site conditions into an initial concept that focuses on layout, flow, and how your home will be lived in. At this stage, functionality leads… ensuring spaces feel connected and resolved, before aesthetics are layered in. We present both building design and initial finishes, and work through your feedback collaboratively. The goal is a concept that feels right for you, visually and in a way that you can imagine living in.

03

Design Development

Design DEVELOPMENT

Design Development

With the concept established, we refine and test every detail. This stage involves resolving layouts, selections, and technical elements so the design aligns with both your vision, and your budget. We guide you through the key decisions, from materials to spatial adjustments, while coordinating with our construction team to ensure everything is buildable and considered. It’s also where we navigate any trade offs and help you prioritise what matters most to achieve your desired result.

04

Pre-Construction

PRE CONSTRUCTION

Pre-Construction

This stage is about clarity and confidence before we break ground. We finalise documentation, and prepare detailed pricing alongside our agreed budget that reflects your selections and design decisions. Any remaining adjustments are resolved here, ensuring there are no surprises later. Contracts, timelines, and construction planning are clearly outlined so you know exactly what to expect. It’s a structured transition from design into delivery, with everything aligned.

With design and documentation resolved, construction begins with a clear plan. Our team manages the build with consistent communication, attention to detail, and a focus on delivering what was promised. Because design and construction have been considered together from the beginning, the process is more efficient and less reactive. We continue to collaborate internally and with you at key stages to ensure the outcome is consistent with your original intent.This is where everything comes to life.
