Meet Will.

Founded by Will Downes, a local Novocastrian with a Bachelor of Construction Management from the University of Newcastle and more than 15 years experience in residential building, Fernleigh Homes has become synonymous with quality craftsmanship and client-focused service.

Known for being the go-to problem solver, Will’s down-to-earth nature and friendly approach ensure that each client feels informed and confident throughout the building process. Whether you're embarking on a custom architectural build or looking to bring your vision to life within a tight budget, we’ll work closely with you every step of the way.

“Communication was one of Will's strong suits—he kept us informed every step of the way and was always available to answer questions. Whenever an issue arose, he handled it promptly and with care, ensuring the quality of work was never compromised”.
