Building a Coastal Dream Home in Alkimos: Angela & Oscar’s B1 Homes Journey
12 March 2026
For Angela and Oscar, building a home isn’t just about bricks and mortar. It’s about creating a place where their family can grow, enjoy the coastal lifestyle, and build a future together.
Angela and Oscar are building their new family home in Alkimos with Perth builder B1 Homes, marking an exciting milestone as construction begins with their slab recently poured.
Now, with the slab officially poured on their new home in Alkimos, that vision is beginning to take shape.
Recently, their Home and Land Consultant, Victor Garzon, met the couple onsite to celebrate the milestone, a moment that marks the true beginning of construction and the first physical step toward their dream home.
For many clients, slab stage is when the journey finally starts to feel real.
For Angela and Oscar, it was the moment they could stand on their block, look toward the ocean, and imagine the life they’re building there.
A Coastal Lifestyle Worth Building For
Located along Perth’s northern coastline, Alkimos has quickly become one of the most popular suburbs for families looking to build a new home near the beach.
With its relaxed coastal lifestyle, growing community and expanding infrastructure, the area continues to attract people wanting the balance of lifestyle and long-term value.
For Angela and Oscar, the location played a big role in their decision to build.
As Victor explains:
“They’re building their dream home with a stunning coastal view so they can enjoy the serenity of ocean horizons every day. For this young family, it’s not just a house, it’s a place where they’ll create lasting memories, while securing a solid foundation for financial freedom in the future.”
A home by the coast means morning walks along the beach, sunset views across the ocean, and a place where everyday life feels just a little more relaxed.
A Smooth and Supported Building Journey
Angela and Oscar first connected with B1 Homes in October 2025, and their journey has progressed steadily through the early stages of the building process.

Celebrating the Slab Milestone
The slab stage marks the moment when a home truly begins to take shape.
After months of planning, documentation and approvals, the concrete foundation is poured and construction officially begins onsite.
When Victor visited Angela and Oscar to celebrate the slab milestone, it was a chance to pause and recognise how far their journey has already come.
Standing on the slab, they could begin to picture where the kitchen will be, where the living spaces will open up, and where future family memories will unfold.
And of course, where those coastal views will be enjoyed every day.
What Happens After the Slab Stage?
Once the slab is poured, the next stages of construction begin quickly.
Typically, the next milestones include:
-
Brickwork and external walls being built
-
Roof carpentry and structural framing
-
Internal lock-up stage
-
Electrical, plumbing and interior fit-out
-
Final finishes and handover preparation
For Angela and Oscar, the next exciting step will be brickwork, where the structure of their home will begin to rise and their floorplan becomes visible.
Each stage brings them one step closer to moving into their coastal home.
