Before you start thinking about house design, you need to establish your budget and available mortgage. Your self-build home can then be designed and built around this constraint. You then need to decide what kind of self-builder you are:
Looking for design inspiration?
You may be considering a land purchase for your self-build house project, or already own the land. You will probably be looking for a house design idea and inspiration, as well as an idea of costings (it is not realistic to design a house for free; the building regulations, and planning regulations need to be taken into account by a professional house designer or architect, although to give you some ideas, a free house design software package such as Google's Sketch-up is always a fun starting point!). We recommend visiting these pages:
- Past Project Gallery will give you self-build design inspiration - from small house designs to large family home plan designs.
- Search our SimplyInspired Range of 3D House Designs to see what you can get for your money – take them as they are at the great prices, or tailor the designs to suit! Search contemporary, georgian, victorian, traditional and modern house designs.
- New! House Design service - get your bespoke house plan design project started by booking a self-build house design consultation with our national architects and planning permission partners - design your own house!
- We also offer a house extension design service.
Already have a design?
If you already own the land and have a design idea (it my have come as part of the planning permission on the land, or you may have engaged a private architect) let us make your project happen. we recommend visiting these pages:
