Knock down Rebuild
Enjoy a new home without moving suburbs
So, you're in the perfect neighbourhood. Your kids love their school. You've got plenty of yard space. There's only one problem: your house is way past its use-by-date. Recognise this scenario? At this point, you might think that your only option is to put your house on the market, and hope you can get a decent offer… or your other option could be to do a big renovation.
What if we were to convince you that there’s another option out there…
We’re of course talking about a knock down rebuild. A KDR allows you to start with a clean slate to create the home of your dreams, without the hassle of relocating to a new area or dealing with a renovation. You’ll appreciate the freedom that comes with designing and building a home for your family that's functional, energy-efficient, beautiful and completely in line with your lifestyle.
What’s the Difference Between a Knock Down and Rebuild, and a Renovation?
When it comes to transforming your home, you might find yourself with two choices: a knock down rebuild or a renovation. Renovating your home typically involves upgrading or altering the existing structure and redoing particular rooms. This might mean updating the kitchen, adding a new bathroom, or extending the living space. Renovations usually require less work than rebuilding since you're already working within the existing structure. On the other hand, a knock down and rebuild involves completely demolishing the current structure and starting anew. This option lets you design and build a brand new home from the ground up.
While renovations can be a great way to make significant improvements and modernise your home, a knock down rebuild often makes more sense in the long run. One of the main advantages of a KDR is that it takes away the limitations posed by an old structure. This approach can also be more cost-effective in the long term, as it avoids the potential pitfalls and hidden costs associated with renovating older structures, such as unexpected structural issues or outdated aspects of the home that need to be completely replaced anyway.
Choosing a knock down rebuild really can be an exciting and rewarding project. It allows you to build your dream home from start to finish, ensuring everything is exactly how you envision it. With a brand new home, you can enjoy modern design, improved energy efficiency, and a layout that’s tailored to your family’s lifestyle, making a knock down rebuild a smart investment for the future.
How Much Does a Knock Down Rebuild in Sydney Cost?
Believe it or not, a typical knock down rebuild costs two to three times less than a major renovation. That’s right - LESS! And the benefit of knocking down and starting again is that you get to customise everything in the way you've always wanted.
If you’re still on the fence about a KDR or renovating, you should also be mindful that a common issue with renovating is the possibility of extra costs that may start to add up throughout the project. Unfortunately, it’s not uncommon for renovations to end up costing twice as much as what was first quoted, because of new construction issues that may popup only after the renovation has kicked off, and they can put you over your budget to fix. That’s where so many home renovators get stung.
