OUR STORY

Our Research ‘City Views’ home, has been awarded a Special Commendation for the Best Custom Home $600,000- $800,000 in the 2020 Master Builders Victoria Excellence in Housing Awards.

Kustom Living, is a boutique custom home builder specialising in the construction of architectural new homes across Victoria’s lifestyle regions.

Kustom Living is a family owned construction company led by brothers Steve & Greg Balmforth who are passionate about building and architecture. They place a high value on what they leave behind after a project is complete and enjoy the construction process and client relationships. With decades of construction experience the KL team will deliver your home to the highest standard.

The key to its success lies in the strength of the relationships and commitment to flexibility, quality and integrity.

At Kustom Living a director takes ownership of each project ensuring full accountability and peace of mind for clients.

They believe this point of difference provides an advantage to the typical builder model where the building supervisor is usually an employee with a heavy workload and competing priorities. Their approach delivers a better outcome in bespoke building where attention to detail is critical to the end result.
