We combine boutique scale with deep experience across acquisitions, planning, finance and construction delivery.
Facet was created with a clear intention: to pursue residential projects where design, place and long-term thinking matter.
Facet is a Melbourne-based residential developer dedicated to creating homes with purpose. Every project is shaped with a hands-on approach from the earliest stages through to completion. Our clients benefit from project leadership experienced in both development execution and strategic advisory via NS Advisory.
Every project begins with the right site. We focus on established neighbourhoods where thoughtful infill development can contribute positively to the surrounding streetscape and community. Planning context, urban form and long-term potential guide each opportunity we pursue.
Great projects are the result of strong collaboration. Facet works closely with renowned architects, planners, consultants and builders to shape developments that are cohesive, well resolved and carefully delivered. We value open dialogue and the contribution of experienced partners who share our commitment to quality.
From acquisition through to completion, we remain actively involved in every stage of the development process. Planning, design development, procurement and construction are managed with discipline and transparency to ensure the original vision is realised.
