Colonial Style Home Designs

Browse Dixon Homes' colonial style home designs. Timeless character and charm with fixed price, steel frame construction.

Colonial-style home designs draw on Australia's heritage architectural language — deep wraparound verandahs, corrugated iron roofs with generous overhangs, decorative fretwork, timber floors, and symmetrical facades with a central entry. These homes sit comfortably on rural blocks, older character suburbs, and estates where covenants require heritage-sympathetic design. Interior layouts favour defined rooms over open plan (separate living, dining and kitchen spaces rather than one big zone), high ceilings, and traditional timber and pressed metal detailing. Dixon Homes' colonial range typically features four or five bedrooms, a formal lounge alongside a family living zone, and full-width verandahs on at least one side. Fixed-price steel-frame construction, single-storey plans dominant.
