A custom Lockwood home build designed to suit the Lake Kaniere landscape.
Built for the West Coast. Designed for the Land.
Tucked into the native bush of Lake Kaniere, this Lockwood home was designed to sit naturally within its surroundings while delivering warmth, durability, and long-term performance.
This is a home built for how we live on the Coast, practical, considered, and made to last.
From early construction through to the finished interior, this project reflects what Ken Drummond Builders is known for, quality workmanship and homes that truly belong to their environment.
From Frame to Finish
This build began with a clear vision, to create a strong, functional home using natural materials that would perform in West Coast conditions.
The Lockwood system allowed for:
Solid structural integrity
Natural timber finishes throughout
Efficient, streamlined construction
Every stage was carefully managed to ensure a consistent, high-quality result from the ground up.
Built to Work With the Land
Positioned within the bush at Lake Kaniere, the home has been designed to respond to its site.
Key features include:
Elevated structure suited to the terrain
Covered outdoor living area
Strong indoor-outdoor connection
Materials chosen for durability in coastal conditions
The result is a home that feels private, sheltered, and connected to the surrounding landscape.
Warm, Functional Living Spaces
Inside, the natural timber interior creates a warm and inviting feel throughout the home.
The layout has been designed for everyday living, with:
Open-plan kitchen and living spaces
Practical storage and utility areas
Clean, modern finishes
Consistent timber detailing across all rooms
It’s a space that balances comfort with functionality, built for long-term living on the Coast.
Built by Locals, for the Coast
With over 30 years of experience building across the West Coast, Ken understands what it takes to deliver homes that stand up to the environment.
Every build is approached with the same focus:do it properly, build it to last, and make it work for the people living in it.
