Summit Homes New Home in Baldivis: Client Story

Clint and Kristi built their beautiful forever home in Baldivis, a coastal farmhouse inspired space designed to grow with their family and make the most of their large block.

The Design Process

With a large block and a clear vision, Clint and Kristi wanted a home that maximised natural features, orientation, and that relaxed coastal farmhouse feel. After spending a couple of years perfecting the design, Summit Homes helped them turn it into a bespoke plan tailored to their lifestyle.

Creating a space that brought the family together was a major priority. The interconnected kitchen, dining, living, and alfresco areas form the true heart of the home, while the ensuite described by Kristi as “a real sanctuary” quickly became one of her favourite spaces.

Building with Confidence

Having already built twice with Summit Homes, Clint and Kristi knew they wanted a team they could trust. Even when early engineering complexities surfaced, Summit resolved them efficiently, even identifying issues the couple hadn’t noticed. This gave them a sense of reassurance from the very beginning.

Their supervisor played a huge role in the experience, staying consistently in touch, answering questions, and making time for onsite meetings whenever needed. As Kristi described it, once the slab went down, “it ran like a well-oiled machine.”

The Summit Experience

In a changing building industry, Clint and Kristi valued Summit’s stability, resilience, and long-standing commitment to quality. They admired that the company has stayed strong through industry challenges, which reaffirmed their decision to return for their third build.

“The quality of the homes we’ve built so far has always remained, so it was the obvious choice.”

Why Choose Summit Homes for your Next Build?

Watching their long-imagined plans come to life was one of their favourite parts of the journey. Regular site visits and updates through the digital portal made the process transparent and exciting. Every detail felt cared for, and every communication was easy to track.

Six months into living in their home, Clint and Kristi say it’s everything they hoped for and more.
