Trendsetter Homes Celebrates a Master Builders WA Win for The Grosvenor
Trendsetter Homes, award-winning custom home builders in Perth has won the Contract Home $1 million–$2 million category at the 2026 Master Builders WA Building Excellence Awards. The award recognises excellence in craftsmanship, construction quality and attention to detail.
An Art Deco-inspired residence with a personality all its own, The Grosvenor is anything but ordinary.
Set across three storeys in the heart of Mount Lawley, this distinctive custom home brings together architectural individuality, considered design and exceptional craftsmanship.
The award is a proud moment for the Trendsetter Homes team and a testament to the skill, dedication and collaboration behind bringing this remarkable residence to life.
A Little Art Deco, A Lot of Character
Set within the established streets of Mount Lawley, The Grosvenor brings a contemporary perspective to the enduring elegance of Art Deco architecture.
Spanning three storeys on a compact 265m² block, the residence is a study in making every square metre count, without compromising on architectural expression or everyday liveability.
From its distinctive architectural forms to its carefully considered finishes, every detail contributes to a home with a strong sense of identity.
The result is a custom home that feels confidently individual, balancing the character of its architectural inspiration with the comforts of contemporary living.
Big Thinking, Beautifully Executed
Behind Grosvenor’s distinctive architecture lies an equally impressive feat of construction.
Built on a constrained inner-city site, the project presented a series of technical challenges, from restricted access and complex basement excavation to the careful integration of a dedicated recording studio. Detailed planning, soil stabilisation and close coordination between trades were essential to bringing the architectural vision to life.
It is this combination of creativity and construction expertise that makes The Grosvenor such a fitting recipient of a 2026 Master Builders WA Building Excellence Award.
A Win Worth Celebrating
The Master Builders WA Building Excellence Awards recognise outstanding craftsmanship and construction excellence across Western Australia’s building industry.
For Trendsetter Homes, winning the Contract Home $1–2 Million category is an acknowledgement of the people and expertise behind every successful project.
From the first conversations through to the final finishing touches, Grosvenor reflects a shared commitment to creating something exceptional.
Our thanks go to the client for entrusting us with their vision, and to our dedicated team, trades and suppliers whose craftsmanship and attention to detail made this achievement possible.

Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Home Builders in Perth
What makes an award-winning custom home?
Award-winning custom homes are recognised for their craftsmanship, construction quality, attention to detail and execution of architectural design. At the 2026 Master Builders WA Building Excellence Awards, Trendsetter Homes’ Grosvenor residence in Mount Lawley won the Contract Home $1 million–$2 million category, recognising the expertise involved in delivering this distinctive three-storey home.
Why choose an award-winning custom home builder in Perth?
Choosing an award-winning custom home builder provides an opportunity to review independently recognised projects and assess the builder’s craftsmanship and construction quality. At Trendsetter Homes, every home is individually designed around the client’s vision, lifestyle and site.
What is the difference between a custom home and a project home?
A custom home is individually designed to suit the owner’s requirements, block and lifestyle. Project homes typically begin with standardised floor plans and offer varying levels of customisation. Custom building allows greater flexibility in architectural design, materials, finishes and spatial planning.
What should I look for when comparing custom home builders in Perth?
When comparing custom home builders, consider their completed projects, construction quality, design capabilities and experience. Visiting a completed home or one under construction can provide valuable insight into the builder’s craftsmanship, attention to detail and approach to building. Reviewing previous projects and understanding the building process can also help you make a more informed decision.
