The home your
street remembers

David Reid Homes builds premium custom homes in Gawler and the gateway to the Barossa. Designed around you, your site and the way you live, and built by your local David Reid Homes Playford team. From a custom home in town to an acreage build on the rural edge, we craft homes that are genuinely one of a kind.


01 / Ethos
David Reid Homes Playford

Where town meets country, we build homes designed for their site and remembered long after the trucks leave. From Gawler to the Barossa gateway, that work is led by Baba Fatungase and the Playford team.

02 / Building in Gawler

Built for the block,
not the catalogue

Gawler sits where town meets country, and that variety suits a custom builder. We build full custom homes and knockdown rebuilds in and around town, and acreage homes with room to move on the rural fringe and toward the Barossa. We also design for sloping and narrow sites. Whatever your block, we turn its character into the design’s best features.

Common Questions
Do you build acreage homes toward the Barossa?

Yes. The country between Gawler and the Barossa is ideal acreage territory, and we design homes that make the most of it: room to move, sheds and studios, and living spaces that frame the rural outlook. We build across the fringe from Roseworthy to Two Wells and beyond.

Do you do knockdown rebuilds in Gawler?

Yes. Gawler’s established streets carry plenty of older homes on generous town blocks, and rebuilding lets you keep the location and the block while getting a brand new home designed for your family. We assess the site with you before you commit.

Which areas around Gawler do you build in?

We build across Gawler and the surrounding districts, including Evanston, Willaston, Hewett, Roseworthy, Angle Vale and Two Wells, and out toward the Barossa Valley. If you are not sure whether we reach your area, get in touch and we will connect you with your nearest David Reid Homes builder.

Do I need a block of land to start discussions?

No. Many of our Gawler clients come to us before they have land, and it is often the best time to talk. We can discuss town blocks, estate releases and acreage options, what to look for based on the home you want to build, and assess a specific block with you before you buy.
