Highbury Homes
Highbury Homes is a residential building company of distinction having won prestigious industry awards. Leading the organisation at Highbury Homes are the owners Chris Bishop, John Beattie and Jim DeBaughn. They established the company in 1999 and each brought with them a minimum of thirty years’ experience in their respective area of the construction industry.
The owners’ vision was to create a building company that treats its clients individually no matter their budget, to create beautiful personalised homes, not just houses. In doing so, we have gained a reputation for flexibility, quality and honesty. The owners remain an integral part of the day-to-day running of the company ensuring that those basic principles still apply. This wealth of experience combined with the vibrant team who take pride in creating unique designs, incorporating the latest materials, technology and environmental building principles to ensure that clients achieve a home with the function they need and the look they desire.
Highbury Homes strives to make the building process as stress-free as is possible. Our site managers have probably the lowest client ratio in the industry to ensure the best quality of construction and our clients have one dedicated administrator to liaise with from start to handover. All clients are treated with the same high level of service & respect, regardless of their budget. Experience the Highbury Homes difference and allow us to show you customised building without compromise in a home uniquely defined by design, detail and quality of construction.

Company Profile
Highbury Homes was established in 1999 by two registered builders and one quantity surveyor with experience in the construction and residential industry. Jim DeBaughn, John Beattie and Chris Bishop, the three founding directors of the company, remain an integral part of the day-to-day running of the business ensuring that the personal service always applies.
The Highbury Homes Group consists of three elements. Highbury Homes, the premium home builder, MyGen Homes operating in the affordable and investment part of the market and Metrostrata Developments divided between smaller group housing projects and our Special Projects division that handles multi unit developments and apartment projects up to $10 million. The groups’ diverse operation is enabled by an expert team of Managers. Their expansive experience and skill set provides the successful response to constantly new challenges presented across the building industry. The team is there to share their knowledge with our clients and provide additional support to our building consultants, allowing them to continue providing a personal and friendly service.
Our ability to handle a diverse range of investment projects for local and overseas clients is borne out of referrals and repeat clients. We offer staff that can speak both Cantonese and Mandarin if required.
Some of the reasons that sets the Highbury Home Group apart from many builders is our approach to building, the quality of our trades, materials, our unique designs and most importantly the detail of construction. In short we build quality property that stands the test of time as our directors are firm on their standards, with no allowed short cuts or building down to a price.
Highbury Homes has several companies all offering expertise in different areas of building. Whatever you require, let us show you that you will never be just a client when building with us!
