Your new home in Coburg

Coburg's larger post-war blocks, especially north of Bell Street, are well suited to knockdown rebuilds. Replacing a tired 1950s or 60s house with a new, energy-efficient home is often better value than renovating it. We manage the whole process: demolition and planning permits, the build, and handover.

Coburg has a real mix: Victorian and Edwardian cottages near Sydney Road, Californian bungalows and interwar brick homes through the middle streets, and post-war houses on bigger blocks further north.

NMB Homes is a second-generation family builder based in Coburg North. We've been building in Melbourne's inner north and inner west since 1993, under fixed-price contracts, with Ninos personally involved in every job.

Local Knowledge

Building in Coburg

Our home suburb

NMB Homes is based in Coburg North, so Coburg jobs are minutes from our office. That means quicker site visits and easier day-to-day supervision.

Mixed housing

Period cottages, bungalows and post-war homes each need a different approach to structure, stumps and services. We plan for it from the first visit.

Heritage overlays

Parts of Coburg are under heritage overlays managed by Merri-bek Council. We check your address before quoting, so permit requirements are known up front.

What's Included

One builder, start to finish

We manage your new home from the first consultation to handover, so you deal with one team, not a string of trades.

  • Design and drafting coordination
  • Planning, demolition and building permits
  • Site works, slab and frame through to lock-up
  • Fixing, finishes and landscaping coordination
  • A fixed-price contract before work starts
  • Handover with your statutory builder's warranty

A custom new home typically takes between 9 and 18 months from permit approval to handover, depending on size and complexity. We give you a detailed schedule at your consultation.
