Home Extension Builder Beecroft — Approved in 60 Days
Beecroft 2119 extensions with tight approval timelines. CDC where eligible (~15 days), DA via Hornsby Shire Council in 40–60 days. Construction 12–24 weeks depending on scope.
Quick Answer
A home extension in Beecroft costs $150,000–$600,000+. Rear extension from $150K, second-storey addition from $300K. Buildana manages design, Hornsby Shire Council approvals, and construction under one fixed-price contract.
Extending Homes in Beecroft
A home extension in Beecroft starts with heritage, because a Heritage Conservation Area covers virtually the entire suburb. The Federation mansions and inter-war Tudor homes on 700 to 1,400m² R2 blocks are precisely what those controls exist to protect, so demolition is off the table and street-facing changes get examined closely. The good news is that blocks this generous give you room to extend at the rear without touching the frontage.
That space is the advantage. On a 700m²-plus block you can add a whole living wing behind the original house and never crowd the garden, which suits the family market drawn here by Beecroft Public and Cheltenham Girls. Hawkesbury Sandstone means rock in the dig, so we test before pricing groundwork. At a $2.8M to $4.2M premium median, doing it properly is the only way that makes sense.
What I would check first on your Beecroft home: the heritage status of the frontage, and where the sandstone starts under a rear addition. Those set the design and the budget.
We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Let us pull your heritage mapping before you plan.
Buildana manages the complete home extension process in Beecroft — from design consultation and structural engineering through to DA or CDC approval, and fixed-price construction to handover. Extend your home without the stress.

Heritage covers the whole suburb
A Heritage Conservation Area covers virtually all of Beecroft, and the Federation mansions and inter-war Tudor homes on 700 to 1,400m² R2 blocks are what it protects. Demolition is off the table and street-facing changes get examined closely.
The generous blocks are the answer: there is room to extend at the rear without touching the protected frontage.
Room to add a whole wing
On a 700m²-plus block you can add a full living wing behind the original house and never crowd the garden, which suits the family market drawn by Beecroft Public and Cheltenham Girls.
Hawkesbury Sandstone puts rock in the dig, so we test before pricing groundwork. At a $2.8M to $4.2M premium median, doing it properly is the only approach that makes sense.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
Everything that has to be right before we touch the ground. On-site assessment of your 1900s–1940s Federation heritage (Beecroft/Cheltenham/Pennant Hills/Wahroonga boundary) + 1960s–1990s brick (Cherrybrook/Asquith/Mount Colah/Mount Kuring-gai) + 2010s+ R3/R4 redevelopment around Hornsby/Asquith/Waitara stations-era home in Beecroft. We check structural condition, block dimensions (700–1,400m²), setback availability, and Hornsby Shire Council's DCP requirements. Written feasibility and cost estimate provided. Designing an extension is half about the new space and half about how it joins the old one. Doorway position, ceiling height transition, floor level matching, light wells — the junction makes or breaks how the finished home feels.
⏱The Beecroft construction phase. Fixed price, programmed, supervised. We lodge your extension approval — CDC for eligible designs or DA through Hornsby Shire Council. Full documentation including structural engineering for Class Hawkesbury Sandstone bedrock soil, BASIX, and shadow diagrams. CC issued before works start. For ground-floor rear extensions you usually stay in the house during the build, with temporary weatherproofing at the junction wall until the new section is locked up. Second-storey additions need a 4–8 week relocation during the roof-off and frame-up phase.
⏱The job isn't done when the site's clean; it's done when you have keys, certificates and warranties. Final inspection, Occupation Certificate, 6-year structural warranty. Your Beecroft home now has the space your family needs.
