A knockdown rebuild in Granville costs $450,000–$1,200,000+. Standard single-storey from $450K, two-storey from $650K. Buildana manages demolition, Cumberland City Council approvals, and construction under one fixed-price contract.
Granville KDR — Single Contract, New Home
Granville rewards owners who check the map before the sledgehammer, a knockdown rebuild works brilliantly on most streets here, but the suburb carries a heritage precinct where demolition gets scrutinised, and you want to know which side of that line your 1920s to 1960s house sits on. Blocks run 450 to 700m² with both R2 and R3 zoning, which is why duplex builders circle this suburb.
Renewal is well underway, the median at $950K to $1.2M and Granville station's direct rail access explain why. Older housing of this age means asbestos-aware demolition, licensed and certified, folded into the program from day one. If your block clears heritage and hits the 600m² duplex minimum, a dual occupancy can beat a single rebuild by a wide margin.
What I would check first on a Granville block: the heritage precinct boundary, the R2 versus R3 zoning, and the asbestos in the existing house. Those decide the path.

Renewal, and a duplex option
Renewal is well underway, with the median at $950K to $1.2M and Granville station's direct rail access explaining why. Older housing means asbestos-aware demolition, licensed and certified, folded in from day one.
If your block clears heritage and hits the 600m² duplex minimum, a dual occupancy can beat a single rebuild by a wide margin. We model both against the LEP.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
Free site inspection of your Granville property. We check lot dimensions, Cumberland City Council's planning controls, existing home condition, and potential asbestos.
⏱KDR is the chance to get the design right — the new build doesn't have to mimic the original layout. We start from your block's strengths (orientation, slope, views) and your family's brief, then design the home the original lot always deserved.
⏱Licensed demolition of existing 1920s–1960s-era dwelling. Asbestos removal by certified contractors (if present).
⏱Your new home goes up on the cleared site. Engineered slab sized for Class M soil, frame, roof, fit-out, kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, painting, driveway, and landscaping.
⏱Handover pack: OC, structural certificates, BASIX, appliance manuals and warranties, paint colour schedule, maintenance plan, and the keys. Six-year structural warranty kicks in from OC date — keep the documentation safe for any future sale.
