Knock Down and Rebuild by SIMONE HOMES
If you love where you're
living but not the home you're in, a knock down rebuild could be
an excellent solution for your family. As the name suggests, a knock down
rebuild
involves pulling down your existing house and using the land to build a
brand-new home.
Knocking down your existing home to build a new one
allows you to have complete control, flexibility and the benefit of a more
functional design. This includes things like the layout or floor plan, the
standard of your inclusions, how you use all of the space in your new home and
incorporating the latest technology and energy-efficient products into your
home. To top it off, in comparison to most renovations, it is also a pretty
cost-effective option.
Before you plan to knock down your existing home, it's essential to check whether
your land is suitable. To do this, make sure to get a current section 149 from
your local council. A section 149, otherwise known as a planning certificate,
will outline the planning information about your lands, such as its zoning and
any restrictions that apply. The purpose of this is to make the process of building
your new home as smooth as possible with no bumps along the road.
After being in your current home for many years,
it's time for a change. Finally, you're in a position where you can finally
build one of those luxury homes you've dreamed about. The one thing holding you
back is that you love where you live. But, believe it or not, you can have
both. The solution is to knock down your existing home and rebuild a beautiful
new dwelling right on the same spot.
If your house is showing its age, the cost of fixing
various issues can quickly add up. The money you spend on an extensive
renovation project may or may not get you the results you want. In addition,
attaching a whole new section to your existing home requires working around the
existing structure, which can create disruptions in your daily living.
You might suddenly learn that you have to upgrade
some areas to comply with building regulations, creating additional costs you
didn't plan on. Finally, even a good renovation means compromising what you want
because of space, budget or code issues.
A knock
down and rebuild of all these issues lets you build a new home that's exactly what you
want and within your existing budget.
You might want to build a home that is more
eco-friendly and efficient than the one you have. These features can be added
to a new home for a fraction of the cost of adding them to an existing
structure. It's also beneficial to talk to your builder about whether your project
is suitable for a Complying Development Certificate or whether you will need to
go through your local council for Development Approval.
A complying development certificate is for minor
developments with predictable or minor environmental impacts, which your local
council will need to approve before starting your build. Development approval
is given by the local council for more complex buildings and includes a set of
guidelines and structure details that the builder must adhere to.
