The Sloping Site Specialists
If you are looking to build on a sloping site, you have found the ideal builder. Montgomery Homes dominates the market when it comes to building on a sloping block. We offer split-level home designs for almost any land type – whether your block slopes uphill, downhill, sideways, or is an unusual shape, we have creative solutions for you.
Montgomery Homes utilises both bearers and joists as well as split slab techniques to allow your home to caress the curve of the land. Building a split-level home design like this avoids excessive excavation and the need to dig deep into the land to place a flat, one level slab.
Our renowned split level technique can result in flatter driveways, more managable retaining walls, and will drastically improve your street appeal.

character and opportunity of your sloping site

How we make sideways house designs more affordable
For more than three decades, we’ve been building our reputation as the “sloping site specialists” in New South Wales. We’ve developed a smart and innovative building technique for sloping sites. When approaching a sloping site, most builders cut deep into the land to make way for your new home design, adding unnecessary excavation to the total cost of your new home build.
At Montgomery Homes, we aim to reduce costs and stick to your budget without compromising on quality. Our builders follow the contour of the land to minimise excavation costs. We then use the loose soil to create a level foundation for your home build.
This eliminates the need for extra excavation, leaving extra room in the budget for the more exciting things like finishes, upgrades, and decorating your brand new home.
The lifetime benefits of a sideways sloping home design
While level home designs can be cheaper and easier to build, sideways sloping home designs are often more interesting and unique. For example, due to the slope of the land, the internal layout is tiered or “split”, separating each level of the house.
This creates a more spacious atmosphere and open plan design. Your home will seem a lot bigger than it is - a real talking point for guests!
Need some inspiration for building a home on a sideways sloping block? Consider placing the garage on the lower floor and position your entertaining areas on the upper floor to maximise the view from your enchanting deck. At Montgomery Homes, we’ll be sure to leverage the potential views from the block so you can watch the neighbourhood from the windows or relax on the balcony in the afternoon.
