Glenbrook is a tranquil rural locality famous for scenic farmland vistas and proximity to the Manukau Harbour. Its quiet, family-friendly setting appeals to those who want to step back from bustling city life yet remain within a commutable distance of Auckland. At Total Build, we specialise in house and land packages that simplify the journey to homeownership in this serene part of Franklin.

If you are thinking of a snug single-level home for minimal upkeep or a spacious two-storey plan that captures panoramic rural views, our adaptable design and construction methods will help you find the right fit.
When we talk about a house and land package in Glenbrook, it’s not just about the plot and creating a standard build. We pride ourselves on tailoring each offer to the environment and the homeowner’s lifestyle:

3. Quality Construction
We use proven building techniques and materials that withstand local conditions, ensuring your property remains in top shape year after year. From robust roofing to handle strong winds to cladding designed to minimise maintenance, each choice is made with longevity in mind.
4. Personalised Touches
Each family is different, and we encourage you to make your mark. If you want an extended deck for alfresco dining or dream of a large garage for your workshop, we integrate those requests into your house plan.
Glenbrook is well-known for its scenic kahawai point, local community gatherings, and farmland that stretches into the horizon. This picturesque setting lends itself to a slower and relaxed pace of life, where neighbors often know each other’s names and open spaces foster a real sense of freedom. Our design philosophy capitalises on this wide-open feel, typically featuring generous windows and fluid homes that invite the outdoors in. The goal is to create a harmonious balance between comfort and nature, one in which you can wake up to panoramic views without sacrificing the modern touches you’ve come to expect from a contemporary home.
Beyond the aesthetic and functional elements of your new build, we also focus on making the building process as straightforward as possible. Securing land, navigating council approvals, coordinating with subcontractors, and managing timelines can be daunting if you attempt it alone. That’s where we step in. From the moment you express interest in a particular house and land package to the final handover of keys, our project managers and support staff handle the heavy lifting. We provide regular updates, address questions promptly, and keep the lines of communication open so you can focus on the excitement of moving into a brand-new home.
If you’re concerned about future-proofing your property, we can incorporate sustainable building practices, energy-efficient technology, and adaptable floor plans. Items like solar-ready rooftops, water-saving fixtures, or flexible multi-use rooms allow your home to grow with you, if you’re planning on an expanding family or looking forward to retirement.
By carefully pairing each build with the right section in Glenbrook, we ensure that your new home feels like a natural extension of the surrounding countryside. We also maintain strong relationships with local suppliers and tradespeople, which supports the local economy and upholds consistent quality standards. The result is a durable, finely crafted home that mirrors Glenbrook’s warm and welcoming essence.
We believe every one should have the confidence that their home is built for life: a home to be proud of.
