Quick Answer
A knockdown rebuild in Dolls Point costs $450,000–$1,200,000+. Standard single-storey from $450K, two-storey from $650K. Buildana manages demolition, Bayside Council approvals, and construction under one fixed-price contract.
Demolish and Rebuild in Dolls Point
A knockdown rebuild in Dolls Point is a premium bayside play — a small beachside enclave on Botany Bay between Ramsgate Beach and Sandringham, with inter-war and post-war stock on 500 to 800m² blocks and a direct beachfront premium. A rebuild designs a modern bayside home around the beach setting.
On the beachfront and near-beach blocks, coastal salt-grade specs apply — corrosion-resistant fixings and marine-suitable detailing. The Botany Sands soil shapes the footing design off a real geotech, and the R3 along the foreshore opens options on some blocks.
The older stock carries asbestos, so a licensed strip-out leads the demolition.
We rebuild fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our feasibility, with the salt-grade specs and sands designed for, before you commit.
Buildana manages the complete knockdown rebuild process in Dolls Point — from site assessment and architectural design through to DA or CDC approval, demolition management, and fixed-price construction to handover. One builder, one contract, one new home.

A premium bayside enclave
Dolls Point is the small beachside enclave on Botany Bay between Ramsgate Beach and Sandringham, on 500 to 800m² blocks with a direct beachfront premium. A rebuild designs a modern bayside home around the beach setting, which the original inter-war home rarely used well.
The calm-water bayside position makes it a genuinely family-friendly premium pocket.
Salt-grade specs and the sands
On the beachfront and near-beach blocks, coastal salt-grade specs apply — corrosion-resistant fixings and marine-suitable detailing that lasts. The Botany Sands soil shapes the footing design off a real geotech.
The older stock carries asbestos, so a licensed strip-out leads the demolition. The R3 along the foreshore opens options on some blocks, which I check.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
Everything that has to be right before we touch the ground. KDR feasibility is two questions: what can the block legally support, and is it cheaper to build new than fix old. We answer both in writing within a week, with cost ranges grounded in current Dolls Point market data — not generic Sydney averages. New home designed for your Dolls Point block — maximising FSR, orientation, and streetscape. Working drawings, engineering, and BASIX prepared. CDC or DA lodged with Bayside Council.
⏱The Dolls Point construction phase. Fixed price, programmed, supervised. Full demolition management: asbestos survey report, licensed removal where required, structural demolition, site clearing, temporary fencing, and dust/noise management. Bayside Council demolition permit obtained beforehand. Build sequence: site prep, slab pour, frame stand, roof, brickwork, lock-up, plumbing and electrical rough-in, plaster, internal fit-out, kitchen install, tiling, flooring, painting, external works, final clean. Each stage signed off before payment release.
⏱The job isn't done when the site's clean; it's done when you have keys, certificates and warranties. Defect-free handover inspection, OC issued, keys in hand. Permanent services reconnected, landscaping complete, 6-year structural warranty, and full maintenance guide provided.
⏱Quality Promise
Buildana handles Dolls Point KDR end-to-end — old house out, new house in, one contract, one contractor, one defined timeline.
