Quick Answer

A home extension in Penshurst costs $150,000–$600,000+. Rear extension from $150K, second-storey addition from $300K. Buildana manages design, Georges River Council approvals, and construction under one fixed-price contract.

Penshurst Home Extensions & Additions

A home extension in Penshurst grows the established family home — heritage and brick-veneer stock on 400 to 700m² blocks where the wing adds the space the originals rationed and the village-and-rail position holds.

The pre-war fabric gets licensed handling, the reactive pockets get engineered junctions, and the leafy streets stay themselves.

At the $1.5M to $2.4M typical, the wing beats the cost of upsizing in the St George district.

We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Ask us to measure what your block can hold.

Buildana manages the complete home extension process in Penshurst — from design consultation and structural engineering through to DA or CDC approval, and fixed-price construction to handover. Extend your home without the stress.

The village keeps them here

Penshurst's village strip and rail are why families stay — and the rear wing adds the second living and bedrooms without giving either up.

The heritage and brick stock takes the additions confidently once it is engineered.

Fabric and ground handled

Lead paint joins asbestos on the pre-war fabric, and the reactive pockets get engineered junctions.

Both are in the fixed price before the build starts.

How It Works

From First Call to Final Key

The first job on an extension is finding out what you're extending onto. Penshurst homes from the 1920s–1960s heritage Federation/Californian Bungalow + 1960s–1990s brick veneer + 2010s+ R3/R4 redevelopment around Hurstville/Kogarah/Beverly Hills CBDs 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.

Quality Promise

Every Buildana home extension in Penshurst is delivered under a fixed-price contract — from design consultation through to defect-free handover.
