Knock Down Rebuild in the Hills District
Love your address but not your house? A knock down rebuild (KDR) gives you a brand-new home where you already live, often faster and more cost-effective than major renovations. We coordinate surveys, demolition, service disconnections, DA/CDC, and build end-to-end.
Popular knock down rebuild requests in the Hills District
- Family homes with open plan living and seamless alfresco spaces
- Secondary living zones, guest suites and dedicated home offices
- Energy smart design suited to larger blocks and established streetscapes
Many Hills District streets see regular knockdowns alongside duplex and dual occupancy redevelopment, which is good news for approvals when your design respects the existing character and planning controls.
What We Build in the Hills District
The Hills District’s wider blocks and family-friendly streets create different opportunities and different council requirements than tighter, inner-city sites. Here’s how we approach both.
Custom Homes for Larger Hills District Blocks
Wider lots open up design options that tighter sites don't allow. We design split-level and single-level homes that make the most of block width and backyard space, while keeping council setback and landscaping rules in mind.
Duplex and Dual Occupancy Builders in the Hills District
Build to live and invest. As duplex builders in the Hills District, we balance yield, privacy and streetscape presentation, testing feasibility against zoning and lot size early so your project satisfies council from the outset.

Common Questions About Duplex Builders Hills District
Will building a duplex actually reduce my privacy compared to a single house?
Not if it’s designed properly. We plan window placement, fencing and outdoor space so each dwelling feels separate and private, even when they share a common wall or driveway.
What if my neighbours object to a duplex during the application process?
Objections are common and don’t automatically stop an approval if the design meets council controls. We prepare designs with streetscape and overshadowing in mind specifically to reduce the grounds for objection.
Can one side of the duplex be larger than the other?
Yes. Duplexes don’t need to be identical. If your plan is to live in one and rent out the other, we can size and finish each side differently to suit how you’ll actually use them.
Do I need to subdivide the title before or after construction?
Subdivision usually happens after construction is complete and the duplex has passed final inspection. We’ll guide you through the sequencing so financing, insurance and titles line up correctly.
Is a duplex still worth building if I only plan to live in it, not rent or sell?
Yes, plenty of our Hills District clients build a duplex purely to house family close by or to make better use of a larger block they’re not ready to leave.
