A knockdown rebuild in Lurnea is a clean play on the post-war and 1970s stock, on standard 500 to 650m² R2 blocks between Liverpool and Casula. Because the homes are that old, they are well past a sensible renovation, so a rebuild resets the property entirely.
The ground is Class H reactive clay, so the new home needs a stiffened raft engineered off a real geotech. The post-war homes almost always carry asbestos, so a licensed strip-out and clearance certificate lead the demolition.
Lurnea is R2, so this is a single-home rebuild suburb, close to Liverpool CBD and its amenities.

Old stock past renovating
Lurnea's post-war and 1970s homes are old enough that renovating around them rarely stacks up. On a standard 500 to 650m² block, a rebuild resets the property into a modern home rather than patching aged bones and dated layouts.
It sits handily between Liverpool and Casula, so a rebuild keeps you close to amenities and transport.
Reactive clay and asbestos
The Class H reactive clay means the new home needs a stiffened raft engineered off a real geotech. The post-war stock almost always carries asbestos, so a licensed strip-out and clearance certificate lead the demolition.
I price both the slab and the strip-out into the feasibility so it reflects your actual block and home.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
KDR starts with an honest look at the existing house. Sometimes it's worth keeping. Most Lurnea homes from the 1960s–1980s — especially fibro and brick-veneer — are beyond the point where renovation makes sense. We tell you straight.
⏱Demolition is pre-approved to run parallel with rebuild design. Asbestos cleared, services abolished, site stripped in a single mobilisation. Geotech reconfirms Class H soil with the old house gone.
⏱New house goes up on the same footprint or a better one, whichever serves the block. Modern NCC envelope, better orientation, fit-for-purpose room sizes. The suburb stays the same; the house finally fits it.
⏱Final handover: new OC, six-year structural warranty, all the documentation on your Lurnea block you'd get on a greenfield build. The only difference is you still live in the street you chose.
