About Hamlan Homes

Our History

Our story is etched along the Great Ocean Road

Hamlan’s origins lie in Anglesea, where we began rebuilding cedar-clad homes after the 1983 Ash Wednesday bushfires.

Today, Hamlan continues to be a family operated builder and has developed a reputation as the region’s preeminent builder with a particular niche for designing coastal homes, split-level homes and custom builds, while also building everything in between.

Hamlan has played a significant role in building homes throughout new communities across Geelong, Bellarine, Surf Coast, and Western Districts. If you drive around any of the new estates including Armstrong, Gen Fyansford, Oakdene and Warralily you will easily be able to spot a Hamlan home for its unique yet timeless design.

Hamlan continues to receive award recognition for their homes. The most recent accolade was from the MBAV for Sustainable home of the year and Best Display over $500,000 for our Cumberland 266 display in Gen Fyansford.

Hamlan is genuinely passionate about the community in which they operate, having formed strong partnerships with various local community groups, sporting clubs and charity organisations including Read the Play, Regional Industry Sector Employment program (RISE), Grow (a joint initiative between Give Where You Live Foundation and G21 — Geelong Region Alliance) and Geelong Community Foundation.

With over 40 years of experience in the local market and a proud history etched along the Great Ocean Road, Hamlan has played a substantial role in the evolution of Geelong and the Surf Coast region and will continue doing so into the future.
