A duplex in Seven Hills costs $750,000–$1,500,000+ for dual occupancy construction. Attached duplex from $750K, detached from $1M. Buildana manages feasibility, Blacktown City Council approvals, construction and subdivision under one fixed-price contract.
Dual Occupancy Developments in Seven Hills
A duplex in Seven Hills works on the blocks that clear the Blacktown 600m2 minimum, and plenty here do. The suburb runs 1960s to 1980s brick on 550 to 700m2 R2 lots, so the larger ones qualify while the smaller scrape or fall short. At a $900K to $1.15M market, with the station and the M2 and M7 close, a Torrens-title duplex is a solid investor or owner-occupier play.
The ground is highly reactive clay, so footings are engineered off geotech and the slab detailed to suit on both dwellings, because that soil moves with moisture. On a qualifying lot a side-by-side sits cleanly, and being 1960s to 1980s stock a fibro strip-out under licence is usually part of the demolition.
What I would check first on your Seven Hills block: the area against 600m2, the reactive-clay classification once geotech is back, and the frontage. Those set what the block carries.
We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Send me the block and I will tell you the dual-occupancy it holds.

Feasibility on the R2 blocks
Seven Hills runs 550 to 700m2 lots, so the larger ones clear the Blacktown 600m2 minimum and the smaller ones need checking.
Station access plus the M2 and M7 make a completed duplex easy to let, which is what carries the numbers at this price point.
Engineered for reactive clay
The highly reactive clay means footings engineered off geotech and the slab detailed to suit on both dwellings.
A 1960s to 1980s home usually needs a licensed fibro strip-out before the new work starts.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
Free feasibility check on your Seven Hills block. We measure frontage width, confirm zoning (R2 Low Density), check minimum lot size against 600m² requirement, and review Blacktown City Council's DCP controls.
⏱Two dwellings, one site — design is mostly about geometry. Frontage split, party wall position, garage stacking, private courtyard size, and the streetscape elevation a certifier will actually approve.
⏱DA through Blacktown City Council (40–90 days) or CDC (10–15 business days). Seven Hills is zoned R2 Low Density.
⏱Dual construction runs 9–14 months. Engineered slabs sized for Class H soil, simultaneous frame-up, staggered fit-out for efficiency.
⏱Two homes, two titles, two OCs, two warranty packs. We hand over a clean documentation set per dwelling: certifier reports, BASIX certs, structural sign-offs, appliance warranties, maintenance schedules.
