Custom homes, luxury residences, knockdown rebuilds, renovations and extensions in Black Rock — built by an award-winning Melbourne construction team.
Book a ConsultationBlack Rock holds some of Bayside's most prestigious real estate — clifftop blocks along Beach Road with sweeping views across Port Phillip Bay. Building here calls for a level of technical skill and site experience that goes beyond a standard suburban block, which is where PJ Thomas Homes' award-winning approach fits.
The suburb's quiet, leafy streets — Bluff Road, Ludstone Street and the pocket bordering Cheltenham Golf Course — hold a mix of substantial period homes and architect-designed contemporary builds. Blocks here are generally larger than elsewhere in Bayside, and buyers are typically building once, so getting the design and construction right matters even more.
PJ Thomas Homes provides custom home building, luxury home construction, renovations, extensions and knockdown rebuilds throughout Black Rock and the surrounding Bayside Melbourne area, close to Beach Road, Bluff Road and Cheltenham Golf Course.
We design and build custom homes in Black Rock shaped around your block, budget and the way you actually live — not a generic floor plan. Every project is tailored from the ground up, with the same standard of craftsmanship recognised by four HIA Awards on our Brighton Residence project.
As experienced luxury home builders, we bring detail-led construction and premium finishes to Black Rock residences — managing selections, trades and workmanship to a standard that matches the suburb's expectations.
A knockdown rebuild is often the most cost-effective way to get the home you want on land you already know. We manage demolition, Bayside City Council approvals and construction from a single point of contact, start to finish.
From kitchen renovations to second-storey additions, we plan Black Rock renovations and extensions to improve space and flow while blending seamlessly with your existing home.
PJ Thomas Homes is led by Tom Petrongolo, a Melbourne builder with more than a decade of experience and four Housing Industry Association (HIA) Awards to his name, including HIA Victorian Home of the Year. Clients across Black Rock and Bayside Melbourne choose us for clear communication, careful project management and a finished result that holds up to scrutiny long after handover.
We manage every project end-to-end — from the initial consultation and design through planning approvals, construction and final handover — so you deal with one experienced team throughout.
Clifftop and near-coastal sites in Black Rock can involve geotechnical considerations — slope stability, retaining design and foundation engineering — that a standard suburban build doesn't. Bayside City Council also applies significant landscape and vegetation overlays in this area to protect the coastal environment, so tree removal and canopy retention need to be planned for from concept design, not added in afterwards.
