Ideal Homes was a British housebuilder.

New Ideal Homesteads was formed in 1929 and, under Leo Meyer, became the country's largest private housebuilder in the 1930s. It never achieved the same success after the War and in 1967 it was bought by Trafalgar House. Helped by the acquisition of Comben Homes and Broseley Estates it had become the fifth largest housebuilder by the late 1980s. However, Trafalgar's weakened financial position eventually led to the sale of Ideal Homes to Persimmon in 1996.
