Room to build in the heart of the Gables at The Pines

For many people planning a new home, the decision comes down to two things: enough room to build what they want, and a neighbourhood that already works for day-to-day life. In the Gables, in Sydney's north-west, a new release is setting out to offer both.
About The Pines, Gables
The Pines, from Zarzar Property, sits on the corner of Red Gables and Pebblestone Roads in the heart of the Gables. The release is made up of 700 sqm land lots with large frontages, and the lots are registered, giving buyers the chance to be among the first to secure one.
The 700 sqm blocks give buyers the space to build the home they have in mind and to grow into it over time, in a friendly community that pairs modern living with a peaceful suburban setting.
Much of what makes the location work is already open. The lots are within walking distance of the Gables shopping precinct, which is now trading with a Woolworths, medical centre, pharmacy, childcare, gym, specialty stores and places to eat.
For families, schools and childcare options are located within the Gables itself, and both Santa Sophia Catholic College and Aspect Hills Shire School are close by.
The surrounding suburb also offers plenty of space outdoors. Parks are within walking distance of The Pines, and the Gables is home to sporting fields, family-friendly playgrounds and open green spaces.
For a bigger day out, Rouse Hill Town Centre, a major shopping and entertainment hub, is also close to the estate.
Builders in Western Sydney, NSW
A number of established builders are active in the region, giving buyers at The Pines a range of design and delivery approaches to consider for their 700 sqm lot.
Domaine Homes
Domaine Homes is headquartered in Baulkham Hills, in the Hills District, and trades as Domaine Homes By Clarendon, part of the Clarendon Homes group.
The builder focuses on first home buyers and growing families, with fixed, transparent pricing and an online tool that lets buyers design and price a home before visiting a display. Its range covers single storey, double storey, acreage and granny flat designs. Its six-stage build process averages around 36 weeks for a single storey home and 40 weeks for a double storey home.
Hudson Homes
Hudson Homes lists North-West Sydney among the regions it services, alongside the Central Coast, the Hunter, Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
The 100 per cent Australian-owned builder offers more than 200 floorplans across single storey, double storey, split-level, narrow-lot, duplex and acreage designs. Builds are backed by a Fixed Price Guarantee and a Time Frame Guarantee, under which Hudson pays customers for each day a build runs past schedule. These sit alongside a six-year structural guarantee and a 12-month Defect Liability Period.
McDonald Jones Homes
Established in the Hunter in 1987 and now part of NEX Building Group, McDonald Jones Homes builds across Sydney and several regional NSW markets, as well as Canberra. Its homes are framed in TRUECORE steel with a 50-year structural warranty. Its catalogue spans single storey, double storey, split-level, acreage and dual living designs.
Buyers can personalise selections through the MyChoice Design Studio, which also offers home loan and conveyancing support.
Burbank Homes
Burbank Homes was founded in Melbourne’s western suburbs in 1983 and has grown into a national builder operating across Victoria, Queensland, NSW, the ACT and South Australia.
Burbank Homes remains family owned and operated and has built more than 20,000 homes. Its design library holds more than 1,000 single and double storey floorplans, supported by a design studio for finish selections. Builds carry a 30-year structural guarantee.
Bottom line
The Pines marks a new chapter in the heart of the Gables, where a 700 sqm block sits within easy reach of the shops, schools and parks that are already part of the suburb.
