Real Tenterfield projects
Boulder Ridge
Boulder Ridge Tenterfield is elevated container living set on 20 private acres in the Tenterfield region, crafted from eight 20-foot high-cube shipping containers, fully insulated — a multi-container home designed for the highland setting.

Tenterfield Studio Cabin
The Tenterfield studio cabin joins two 20-foot high-cube containers into a modern living space with floor-to-ceiling glass and a pitched insulated roof. It is also offered as an Airbnb stay at Boulder Ridge, Tenterfield, and if you book a stay and then go ahead with a CBG build, we refund the full cost of your stay. That stay-before-you-build option is rare in this category and useful if you want to feel the space overnight.
Models for New England highland blocks
Cold nights, frost and bushfire overlays shape New England briefs. Insulation and glazing are set in the Lismore factory. Current models we often discuss alongside the Tenterfield builds:
- Tenterfield studio cabin — studio / cabin living
- The Ranch — high-end weekender style
- The Executive — larger luxury modular living
- Granny Cabin 40ft — self-contained cabin
- The Lennox and The Blue Tongue — two-bed modular starting points
- Custom work via Luxury Container Homes and Granny Flats
We deliver across New England on the same factory pathway. The Tenterfield builds we feature here are Boulder Ridge and the Studio Cabin; other New England towns are delivery destinations.

Council and site notes — general only
Each New England council has its own DA / CDC pathway. We prepare documentation as part of our complete service; council fees and specialist reports remain client-side. Share BAL advice, access tracks and whether the unit is primary or secondary dwelling early so the layout matches what your pathway allows.
Off-grid solar and water packages can be integrated in the factory when the title sits away from town services — common on acreage around Tenterfield. Acreage clients often also ask about workshops or farm-stay cabins; those can be quoted from the same cabin range — permitted tourism use stays a planning question for your certifier.
Delivery from nearby Lismore
South Lismore to Tenterfield is a short highland run compared with interstate capitals. Delivery is always extra, so ask for a site-specific quote with crane notes. Licensed builders we work with can handle groundworks and install.
We can build to any cyclone rating up to C4, engineered to suit your site and your certifier’s requirements; highland wind and snow loads are handled through project engineering rather than brochure slogans.
What a first Tenterfield conversation covers
On the first call we usually lock down whether you want a studio cabin, two-bed modular or larger custom home, whether the site is on-grid, and whether you want to book the Boulder Ridge studio stay first. Aerial photos and driveway widths save time on crane planning for sloping highland blocks.
What to send for a Tenterfield / New England quote
- Block location and access photos
- Beds / baths or studio preference
- Grid vs off-grid
- Any council or BAL notes
- Whether you want to book the studio cabin stay first

Linking homes with New England commercial needs
Farm stays, clubs and small contractors in the highlands sometimes need a cabin plus a site office or amenities module. Because both come from South Lismore, colours and delivery dates can align. Ask us if your brief mixes residential and light commercial — we’ll point you at the right current product pages and any club or amenities jobs we can share.
