How much does a knockdown rebuild cost in Melbourne's Eastern Suburbs?

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 this suburb?

Planning permit requirements depend on council overlays such as Heritage Overlays (HO), Significant Landscape Overlays (SLO), and Special Building Overlays (SBO). Bluestar Property Group conducts a full site feasibility assessment and manages the entire permit and town planning process.

How long does the knockdown rebuild process take from start to finish?

A custom luxury rebuild typically takes 14 to 20 months in total, which includes 4 to 8 months for architectural design, soil testing, and council approvals, followed by 10 to 14 months of premium construction.
