ThriveAffordable house designs under $300k
You can still build a brand new home for under $300,000. The designs on this page come from our Thrive range, where floor plans like Neo and Zen keep the footprint tight so you aren't paying for space you won't use. You still get open-plan kitchen and living, three proper bedrooms and a separate laundry, and Zen fits on a block just 9 metres wide.
Our base price covers the floor plan, your façade and inclusion level, and Site Essentials. Site costs and compliance items depend on your land, so we give you a full price estimate once we've looked at your block. Prices differ between regions, so pick yours at the top of the page to see current figures. Rawson has been building across NSW and the ACT for more than 45 years, and every home has independent quality checks and our lifetime structural guarantee*.
