Who we are

We’re a family-owned builder in our third generation. For over 70 years, we’ve been designing and building custom homes across Sydney with the same commitment to craft and care that started it all in 1953.

OUR STORY

1953 to 1980

In 1950, Nick Krajc Senior migrated from Slovenia to Sydney, Australia. After working at Cast and Goldsmith Parramatta for three years, he started his own business in 1953: Nick Building Company. From humble beginnings building its first home in Stanton Street, Fairfield, the company’s reputation for quality construction and honest service saw new home construction spread across Sydney’s expanding region. Nick’s work ethic and uncompromising vision to build homes to a standard he could be proud of saw the business flourish.

By the early 1970s, Nick’s two sons, Nick Jnr and Marko, joined their father. Over the years, the company continued to build on its reputation and the volume of homes constructed increased. With Nick Jnr and Marko’s increasing involvement, in 1982 a name change was agreed upon and “Rosewood Homes” was adopted.

1980 to today

The 1980s saw Rosewood Homes specialise in building for the first home owner market, with construction reaching about 180 homes a year. However, given the fundamental principles on which the company was founded, this volume was scaled back to ensure a clear focus on quality and service. Rosewood Homes then and now concentrates on the construction of refined custom homes.

Nick Senior retired in the mid-80s, however his pride in the company he created maintained his interest in the business until his passing in April 2012. With a company incorporating three generations of his family and nearly 60 years of his life, Nick Senior left a legacy that continues with the same dedication to quality and service the company was founded on.

In 2014, Nick Jnr’s son Adam entered the business, bringing a wealth of experience in custom-built residential construction and a new energy to ensure Rosewood Homes’ long-standing presence as a builder of quality homes continues into a third generation of family operation. Adam’s pride in the homes we build continues to this day and Rosewood Homes reputation remains a testament to the man who started it all over 70 years ago.

Adam Krajc

Managing Director

Growing up with the Rosewood Homes administration office at the family home and spending time on building sites with his dad through school holidays meant Adam was exposed to the day-to-day operation of the business from an early age. With home building as the background to Adam’s childhood and schooling, his constant exposure to Rosewood Homes operations saw his relationships with many of Rosewood’s consultants, suppliers, and contractors founded early.

After school, a Bachelor degree in Commerce (Property Economics) followed by a Bachelor degree in Building provided tertiary qualifications in property development and construction. Adam’s employment history outside his family’s business covered varying forms of residential construction, from homes to multi-storey luxury apartments. With extensive experience administering, supervising, and managing residential projects and having built numerous homes for his own occupation, Adam’s qualifications and building experience suited him perfectly to continue Rosewood Homes beyond the retirement of his father and uncle.

Adam represents the third generation of Rosewood Homes ownership and is responsible for overseeing all aspects of each project, from planning and design to execution and delivery. He combines practical insight with hands-on expertise to craft solutions that create a home you’ll love to live in for decades to come.
