Quick Answer
A duplex in Belmore costs $750,000–$1,500,000+ for dual occupancy construction. Attached duplex from $750K, detached from $1M. Buildana manages feasibility, Canterbury-Bankstown Council approvals, construction and subdivision under one fixed-price contract.
Belmore Duplex Construction
A duplex in Belmore is a feasible dual-occupancy on the lots that clear the Canterbury-Bankstown 600m2 minimum, with R3 adding options near the station. This suburb runs 1930s to 1960s homes on standard blocks, and at a $1.2M to $1.5M median a Torrens-title duplex on a qualifying lot is a strong play close to the amenities and Belmore Sports Ground. Some lots fall short, so the area is the first check.
The ground is engineered off geotech to suit the specific lot, and R3 near the station means a well-placed block may suit medium density instead. On a qualifying R2 lot a side-by-side duplex works cleanly, and where older homes carry fibro a licensed asbestos strip-out comes first.
What I would check first on your Belmore block: whether it clears the 600m2 minimum, the R3 potential near the station, and the frontage. Those set the dual-occ.
We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Send me the block and I will tell you the best use of it.
Buildana manages the full duplex development process in Belmore — from feasibility assessment and architectural design through to DA or CDC approval, and fixed-price construction to dual handover. One builder, one contract, two homes.

At a $1.2M to $1.5M median a Torrens-title duplex on a qualifying lot is a strong play near the amenities.
R3 near the station

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
We assess your Belmore block — lot size (typical 500–700m²), width, R2 Low Density & R3 Medium Density zoning, setbacks, FSR, landscaped area requirements under Canterbury-Bankstown Council's LEP and DCP. Minimum lot for duplex: 600m². You'll know viability before spending on design.
⏱Design phase covers unit layout, access, parking, private open space, and waste management for dual occupancy on your Belmore site. You approve final plans before we move to lodgement.
⏱Duplex approvals get scrutinised harder than single dwellings — neighbour notification, overshadowing, privacy, traffic, waste. Our SEE addresses each on the front foot rather than reactively. Cleaner submission, fewer conditions, faster CC.
⏱Fixed-price construction of both dwellings from slab to keys. Class M engineered footings, frame, lock-up, internal fit-out, and external works. Weekly progress reports.
⏱Subdivision registration starts in parallel with final fitout so titles issue close to handover, not 6 months after. Buildana coordinates the surveyor and Canterbury-Bankstown Council clearance — important if you're planning to sell one side immediately to fund the next move.
