Your Guide to Different Types of House Extensions
Houses are extended for a variety of reasons, but generally the extension addresses deficiencies that exist within an older house or to provide additional facilities
A unique Architectural house can be achieved whilst working within the design guidelines of the Estate Developers.
We have designed a collection of residential home designs that are versatile enough to fit a wide range of lot sizes, gradients, and orientations. Our designs are smartly structured to ensure a compact layout that doesn’t sacrifice space, ideal for various housing subdivisions and aimed at reducing building expenses. Adapting one of our pre-prepared designs to your requirements can provide savings on design fees.
These house designs are an Architectural alternative to the more traditional project homes and could potentially be built at a similar cost. Our house designs can be treated with a variety of roof forms, materials and colours so that no two houses are identical.
Our house designs can include three and four bedrooms, single-storey, split-level and two-storey designs. We have extensive experience navigating estate house rules and working closely with developers, making us the local choice for cost-effective new home designs for Newcastle and Lake Macquarie housing estates.

Estate design controls are required to ensure uniformity and adherence to a particular aesthetic or environmental standard. New home designs in Lake Macquarie and Newcastle housing estates may be subject to an approval process based on the design guidelines of the estate. This can be daunting for homeowners due to the rigorous compliance checks with estate design controls. Our Architects have the knowledge and experience to interpret these controls, understand their intent and navigate the regulations efficiently. This expertise can significantly reduce the time and effort required to navigate the planning and construction phases.
We offer custom design solutions that transcend the limitations of standard project homes, providing you with a unique home that reflects your personal style and needs. This customisation extends to optimising the layout, orientation and functionality of your home, ensuring it perfectly fits your lot size, shape and the natural environment.
An Architect-designed home can enhance the aesthetic value of your property as well as its functionality, energy efficiency and overall livability. This can significantly improve your quality of life while also boosting the property’s market value. Architects consider factors like natural light, ventilation and spatial dynamics to create comfortable and inspiring living environments.
