Meet Jayson & Eve Clout who are heading up Stroud Homes New England and will be based in Armidale.
Why Stroud Homes?
Interestingly, it was Eve who first introduced the Stroud Homes opportunity to Jayson. At first, he wasn’t convinced—but the more they discovered, the more they saw the value in Stroud’s proven systems. With Head Office support only a phone call away, and proven software, they realised they could focus on their strengths while relying on robust structures. They describe themselves as “sponges” right now—eager to learn, confident in the guidelines, and reassured by their close relationship with James, Scott, and the wider Stroud Homes team.
Jayson and Eve will soon open a display centre in Armidale.
Why New England?
The Clouts chose New England both for family and for opportunity. They recognised the growth potential of the region, with its abundance of land, agricultural connections, and booming industries.
Armidale in particular is a hub for education, government, and medical services, making it one of the most attractive places in Australia to live and invest.
A Family Business with a Future
The New England Stroud Homes team is truly a family affair.
Jayson and Eve lead the way, with their son Marcus preparing to follow in his father’s footsteps by completing a carpentry certificate and eventually taking over the family business.
Their daughter Abigayle will contribute her flair for design, colours, décor, and interior styling, while Alexandra will shine in the sales process with strong interpersonal skills that help her connect with Stroud Homes customers.
Together, the Clout family are building not only high-quality custom homes in New England, NSW, but also a lasting family legacy in the local home building industry.
