Premium Home Extensions in Clayfield

Not all Clayfield properties are heritage-listed, but many fall under character housing or contributory place classifications requiring additional council consideration. Properties in certain Clayfield streets have heritage overlays affecting external changes. We assess your property's heritage status during initial consultation and advise on necessary approvals. Our experience with Clayfield's planning schemes ensures smooth navigation of heritage requirements where applicable.

Clayfield families frequently request extensions including additional bedrooms and bathrooms for growing children, open-plan kitchen and living areas for modern family life, luxurious master suites with walk-in robes and ensuites, dedicated home offices and study spaces, and covered outdoor entertaining areas. Given Clayfield's excellent schools nearby, family-focused extensions are particularly popular. We design each extension to suit your family's specific lifestyle and your property's character.

Clayfield extension costs reflect the suburb's quality expectations. Single-room additions typically start from $95,000-$120,000. Open-plan living extensions range $150,000-$240,000.

We excel at creating sympathetic extensions preserving VJ walls, high ceilings, traditional verandas, and decorative features while incorporating modern amenities like contemporary kitchens, luxurious bathrooms, and open-plan living.
