Sorrento lies at the tip of the Mornington Peninsula, with a sheltered bay beach on one side and a raw, wave-thrashed back beach on the other. Its main street still reflects the area's historic character, while low-line homes built with durable, coastal-grade materials blend into the natural surroundings. As an experienced Sorrento builder, SKB designs and constructs homes that suit the location and lifestyle.
Most blocks in Sorrento range from 700 to 1,200 square metres, providing scope for custom home builds, extensions, and outdoor living areas. Building here requires an understanding of Township Design Controls, which influence height, setbacks, and materials. With years of experience as a Sorrento custom home builder, we know how to work within these requirements so approvals are smooth and construction stays on track.
Sorrento’s premium market status has kept rental demand steady and increased the appeal for high-quality builds. Whether it is a custom home in Sorrento, a full renovation, a new pool, or an outdoor entertaining space, we design for the local conditions — from salt-laden winds to sun exposure — and for the streetscape, so every project feels part of the neighbourhood.
Heritage controls apply to certain parts of Sorrento, especially near historic precincts. We are experienced in retaining character elements while incorporating modern design and functionality. Our familiarity with the different block types across the suburb, from bayfront properties to more sheltered inland sites, means we can navigate every challenge effectively.
