Heritage Conservation

An increasing number of areas in Sydney are being recognised as having heritage significance. We can provide design advice on renovating and extending homes in conservation areas.

All councils will impose restrictions on what you can build in a heritage conservation area or what changes you can make to a heritage listed house. When a building, street or suburb is valued because of its history and architectural impact, heritage conservation ensures these features will be conserved for many years to come.

This heritage home needed a little modification to create an open-plan living space and
north-facing outdoor area for entertaining.


Before		After

This heritage-listed home was too small for a modern family. The owners wished to keep the character of the existing cottage and take advantage of water views while increasing and modernising their living space.


Before		After

The owners needed a first floor extension over a 1930s bungalow which would not impact on the streetscape to comply with council's heritage restrictions.


Before		After

This Federation home in Chatswood NSW needed more space for a growing family. The owners decided that a first floor extension at the rear would fulfil their requirements without compromising the front of the house.


Before		After

This Inter-war Bungalow needed to be restored. The new extension provides the owner with all the modern conveniences.


Before		After

This semi-detached Edwardian house needed more floor space and off-street parking. Attic rooms ensured the first floor addition is not visible from the street.
