Home Extension Builder The Spit — Approved in 60 Days
The Spit 2088 extensions with tight approval timelines. CDC where eligible (~15 days), DA via Mosman Council in 40–60 days. Construction 12–24 weeks depending on scope.
Second-Storey & Rear Additions in The Spit
A home extension at The Spit is about the water. The heritage homes on 600 to 1,500m² blocks fall away to Middle Harbour, right by the marinas and the boating that define the pocket, so the wing is built to open the living toward that outlook — the view and the water access are the whole reason the address is worth what it is.
The heritage areas steer a conserve-and-add approach, and the fall is engineered early rather than improvised. The headline underground cost is the deep sandstone rock, which is priced from the geotech up front, and the pre-war fabric gets licensed handling.
At a $4.5M to $10M median, a wing that earns the harbour is a sound investment — built on a clear-eyed reading of the rock and the fall rather than optimism.
We build these fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our extension scope, with rock and fall priced, before you commit.

The outlook is the point
The Spit's premium is the harbour and the boating on its doorstep, and the wing earns it — living opened to the water down the engineered fall, with the levels and glazing the outlook deserves.
The 600 to 1,500m² blocks give the design generous room.
Rock, fall and fabric
Deep rock is typical where the structure changes, so it is priced from the geotech, and the fall is engineered early.
The pre-war hazards run as licensed processes, all in the scope before you commit.
