At Geelong Homes, we offer a carefully considered range of façades designed to suit a variety of streetscapes from urban neighbourhoods and coastal communities to spacious acreage settings.
Whether your style leans classic, contemporary or somewhere in between, our façade options allows you to personalise the look of your home while ensuring it sits comfortably within its surroundings.
Let’s take a closer look at each of our façades.
Classic Façade
The Classic façade is our base façade, meaning it’s included in the price of our standard home designs. While it’s a popular choice for clients mindful of their budget, it’s equally appreciated for its timeless proportions and broad street appeal.
This façade features a traditional hipped roof and a welcoming portico at the entry. A large central window forms a key design feature, framed by weatherboard cladding with face brickwork below. A rendered post and panel lift garage door complete the look.
During your Style Studio appointment, our colour consultant will guide you through selecting colours and materials, allowing you to personalise the Classic façade while maintaining the enduring design that makes it such a favourite.
Peak Façade
The newest addition to our façade collection, the Peak façade delivers a contemporary, coastal-inspired look with a refined architectural edge.
Defined by its asymmetrical gable roof and striking vertical cladding, this façade creates a strong street presence without feeling over-designed. Thoughtful details such as the window shroud and pergola add depth and visual interest.
The result is a modern, well-balanced façade that feels equally at home in coastal and urban streetscapes.
Bungalow Façade
Inspired by the enduring charm of traditional Bungalow homes, this façade blends heritage elements with a contemporary edge.
A gabled roof and generous porch echo classic Bungalow design, while weatherboard cladding gives the home a fresh, modern feel. Brickwork around the garage pays homage to traditional brick verandahs and adds warmth through its earthy texture.
A large full-panel window becomes a standout feature, delivering impact in a sleek and modern way. If you love the character of Geelong’s established suburbs, the Bungalow façade allows you to capture that timeless style in a brand-new home.
Traditional Façade
For those drawn to a timeless, picture-perfect aesthetic, the Traditional façade is a standout choice.
Its defining feature is the Dutch gable roof, combining both hipped and gable elements for classic character. A full-width verandah spans the front of the home, supported by four posts — an iconic feature of Australian homes.
Beyond its visual appeal, the verandah provides shelter from the elements and creates articulation across the façade. A mix of weatherboards, render and brickwork completes the design, giving it warmth and lasting charm.
Coastal Façade
The Coastal façade is a striking option designed specifically for coastal streetscapes.
Its skillion roof creates a clean, modern silhouette, while narrow vertical windows and Axon cladding reinforce its minimalist aesthetic. A simple porch with clean lines complements the overall design without distraction.
This façade incorporates a mix of Axon cladding, render and a brick garage, and can be customised during your Style Studio appointment with the guidance of our colour consultant to suit your vision and location.
Contemporary Façade
Designed for those seeking a modern look with added detail, the Contemporary façade offers a fresh take on classic forms.
A hipped roofline is paired with a bold pop-up porch that projects confidently from the front of the home. Strapping detail adds interest, while a combination of a rendered post and timber post brings balance and contrast.
Narrow vertical windows enhance the façade’s modern appeal, and a blend of brick, weatherboard cladding, a Colorbond roof and panel lift garage door ties the design together. It’s a great option for clients wanting a modern home with character.
