A home extension in Enmore costs $150,000–$600,000+. Rear extension from $150K, second-storey addition from $300K. Buildana manages design, Inner West Council approvals, and construction under one fixed-price contract.
Enmore Home Extensions — Fixed Price
A home extension in Enmore is about the tightest craft the inner west asks for. The 1880s to 1910s terraces sit on 100 to 300m² blocks, so raw floor area is barely on the table — the work is designed to the centimetre, and the real gain comes from light, not size, while the village's live-music energy stays right on the doorstep.
That is the whole trick here: voids, skylights and an opened rear can transform how a narrow floorplate lives without adding much footprint at all. Party walls set the method, the Victorian fabric gets licensed lead and asbestos handling, and the build is sequenced because there is no room to improvise.
At a $1.7M to $2.6M median, an addition beats trading out of the Enmore Road orbit — you keep the pubs, the theatre and the walk to Newtown, and finally make the terrace live.
We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our extension scope, with the sequencing planned, before you commit.

Light is the currency
Enmore's 100 to 300m² terraces grow by light — voids, skylights and opened rears that transform how the narrow floorplates live, designed to the centimetre under the heritage pockets.
The village energy is exactly what building rather than moving preserves.
Victorian fabric handled
Lead and asbestos are handled as licensed processes, and party walls are assessed before any structural move.
The logistics are sequenced before anyone starts, and all of it is priced into the job from the outset.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
The first job on an extension is finding out what you're extending onto. Enmore homes from the 1880s–1910s were built to different standards — we open walls, check footings, verify load paths. The existing house has to carry the new work.
⏱Design follows the existing roof. A bad extension looks like a bolt-on; a good one reads as original. Matched brickwork or contrasting render (whichever the architecture calls for), tied-in roofline, continuous flooring where it should be continuous.
⏱Construction happens while you live in the house. That means weatherproofing every night, staging the works so kitchens and bathrooms don't disappear on the same week, and keeping the site clean of debris that doesn't belong in a family home.
⏱Finish is seamless. Paint match, floor match, roofline match, brick match where possible. The only way to tell the extension is new is the date on the plans.
