Your new home in Gowanbrae

Gowanbrae's homes are newer than most in the north, so new builds here are usually custom homes on vacant or redeveloped lots. We design and build at a fixed price, with the finish quality NMB is known for.

Gowanbrae is a newer estate suburb, mostly built from the late 1990s onwards, with modern brick homes on regular suburban blocks.

NMB Homes is a second-generation family builder based in Coburg North. We've been building in Melbourne's inner north and inner west since 1993, under fixed-price contracts, with Ninos personally involved in every job.
