Our published range for custom homes in Bendigo, $2,800 to $3,500 per square metre including GST, is now quoted in Bracen’s Australian cost-to-build guide as a regional example. Bracen is an independent building decision platform, and the guide lines up ABS state averages, quantity surveyor benchmarks and regional builders’ published figures so homeowners can compare them on the same basis.
Bendigo sits below the Melbourne custom range for the reasons locals already know: land, access and a stable trade base. Read the Australian cost to build a house guide for the national and state tables, then come back to our custom home construction costs page for Bendigo site costs, permit fees and the worked example.
