Knockdown Rebuild Specialists in Deepdene

Bluestar Property Group is a Melbourne custom home builder specialising in knockdown rebuilds in Deepdene (3103). We manage the entire process for you, from site feasibility, architectural design and City of Boroondara planning permits through to demolition and construction of your luxury, architecturally designed home. Because Deepdene homes rarely come to market, rebuilding on your existing block is often the best way to secure a brand-new home in the suburb. Our team builds across Melbourne’s eastern suburbs, including nearby Balwyn, Kew, Canterbury and Camberwell.

Custom architectural knockdown rebuild projects in Boroondara and Whitehorse typically range from $1.8M to $4M+, depending on the architectural design, square meterage, basement requirements, site slope, and luxury finishes selected.

Do I need council planning permits to rebuild in Deepdene?
