A knockdown rebuild in Dundas is a solid play on the established hill-fall stock — Federation cottages, inter-war heritage and post-war brick on 500 to 800m² R2 lots above the Parramatta River, with the Parramatta Light Rail in the suburb. The aging stock and decent blocks give a rebuild real potential.
Heritage Conservation Areas sit in pockets, so heritage is worth checking, and the sandstone outcrops on the river-fall edge can mean rock on the substructure, priced from a real geotech. Against the 600m² duplex minimum, many blocks qualify, so I run those numbers too.
The ground is Wianamatta Shale, and the pre-war stock carries asbestos and lead paint, so a licensed strip-out leads the demolition.
We rebuild fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Get our feasibility — rebuild or duplex — before you commit.

Established stock, light rail access
Dundas's Federation-to-post-war stock on 500 to 800m² lots is well into rebuild territory, and the Parramatta Light Rail in the suburb adds real connectivity. A knockdown resets a dated home into a modern one in an established hill-fall pocket.
Against the 600m² duplex minimum, many blocks qualify, so I run the duplex numbers alongside the rebuild.
Heritage pockets, outcrops and old stock
Heritage Conservation Areas sit in pockets, so a listed block goes down the DA path. The sandstone outcrops on the river-fall edge can mean rock on the substructure, priced from a real geotech.
The pre-war stock carries asbestos and lead paint, so a licensed strip-out leads the demolition.
