The home your
street remembers

Yes, narrow blocks are a specialty. On a tight frontage the design has to work in section: courtyards, light wells, voids and careful room sequencing keep a narrow home feeling open and bright. We design for the block you have rather than forcing a wide plan onto a lot that cannot take it.

It depends on the home and the controls that apply to it. Some inner west houses sit in heritage conservation areas where the streetscape is protected, which can favour building new behind a retained frontage. Where controls allow, a full knockdown rebuild often beats a major renovation on cost certainty, warranty and energy performance. We assess your home and give you an honest view either way.

We build across the inner west, including Balmain, Rozelle, Leichhardt, Annandale, Haberfield, Five Dock, Drummoyne, Concord, Strathfield and Burwood. If your suburb is nearby but not listed, talk to us about your block.

They shape what the street sees, not what your family gets. In a conservation area the front elevation and streetscape carry controls, so we design frontages that sit comfortably in the street while the home behind them is entirely yours. We manage the heritage and approval process with council as part of the build.
