Knockdown Rebuild Cabarita — One Contract, Demo to Keys
Everything under one agreement in Cabarita 2137: demolition, asbestos removal, site prep, design, approvals, engineering, new home construction, landscaping and Occupation Certificate.
Cabarita Knockdown Rebuilds
A knockdown rebuild in Cabarita is a premium riverside project on the Parramatta River peninsula — Federation cottages, inter-war heritage and contemporary builds on 500 to 1,000m² blocks with fall to the river, close to Cabarita Park. A rebuild designs a substantial home around a genuine river outlook.
The ground is Wianamatta Shale, so the slab is designed off a real geotech, and on the river-fall blocks retaining and stepped footings come into play. Heritage Conservation Areas cover several streets, so a listed block goes down the DA path.
The pre-war stock can carry asbestos and lead paint, so a licensed strip-out leads the demolition.
We rebuild fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our knockdown rebuild feasibility before you commit.
