House Extensions Brisbane

Your need for additional living space doesn't mean having to leave the comfort of your current home or neighbourhood for an entirely new property in a new location. Instead, you can choose to invest in a luxury house extension!

Distinct Built Construction specialises in professional luxury house extension services to help Brisbane homeowners maximise their living space without needing to relocate.

Expand Your Living Space Without Changing Your Address

Do you love the location of your current house but are outgrowing the space? Perhaps you have a growing family you wish to accommodate, or maybe you're just looking to improve the flow and light in your home.

If any of these sound familiar, a home extension could be the ideal way to create the space you need while staying in the place you love. Whether adding extra bedrooms, creating a larger living space or expanding your outdoor entertaining area, house extensions offer a strategic means of upgrading your home without the hassle of moving.

Benefits of Home Extensions

Home extensions offer a range of benefits, from added comfort and functionality to increased property value. Here’s why a home extension might be the right choice for you:

Extra Living Space

One of the primary benefits of house extensions is the creation of additional living space. This newfound space can be used for various purposes, such as creating a more spacious kitchen, a dedicated entertainment area, or a guest suite. With so many opportunities for personalisation and adaptation to suit your lifestyle, an extension can transform your home into a place that better reflects your family's evolving needs without the upheaval of moving.

Enhanced Indoor-Outdoor Flow

Brisbane's climate begs for living spaces that blend indoors and outdoors. House extensions allow you to create a seamless flow between your indoor and outdoor spaces, making your home lighter, larger, and more inviting. This could mean adding a spacious deck for outdoor entertaining, installing large sliding doors that open to a garden, or creating a sunroom that brings in natural light and views of the outdoors.

Increased Functionality

Extensions allow for improvements in the overall functionality of your home. You can reconfigure existing layouts, add storage space, or create open-concept living areas to optimise the flow and efficiency of your living spaces. Home extensions are all about improving the liveability of your home and optimising spaces that complement your and your family’s lifestyle. 

Increased Property Value

In addition to the immediate (above) advantages, extending your home also offers benefits well into the future, particularly if you decide to sell the property. Homebuyers tend to look for properties that meet their immediate needs and don't need any upgrades or additions, meaning a well-executed house extension can set your home apart from others on the market.

Different types of House Extensions

Expanding your home can offer endless opportunities, depending on the type of extension you choose. At Distinct Built Construction, we provide the following:

Ground/Single Story Extensions

Perfect for homes with extra yard space, ground and single-story extensions are a fantastic way of transforming your living space without the complexities of building upward. This type of extension is particularly beneficial for families looking to create extra rooms or additional space in their living areas without impacting their home's current flow or layout. Common ground-level extensions include additional bedrooms and expanded living and kitchen areas.

Outdoor Extensions

Outdoor extensions offer the perfect way to connect the indoors to the outdoors, allowing you to embrace the Brisbane weather and enjoy more time outside. Outdoor extensions like decks, patios, or alfresco areas connected by sliding glass doors create a seamless indoor and outdoor transition. Together, these features enhance the functionality and feel of your living spaces, inviting in natural light and fresh air while creating an expansive living area perfect for relaxing or entertaining family and friends.

Lift and Built Under’s

A bigger job than a single-story or outdoor extension, a lift and build-under extension involves creating an additional living space beneath your home while adding access to the upper level. At Distinct Built Construction, we partner with the talented team at Steele House Raising to lift ground-level homes while also working on already raised homes like Queenslanders. Lift and build under extensions are an innovative way of maximising your living space and functionality without building outward or creating a whole new level.

Upper-Level Extensions

You may choose an upper-level extension if you're short on outdoor space and prefer not to sacrifice any cherished outdoor areas. Although they require extensive renovations and may entail acquiring government permits or approvals, this investment can transform your living area and significantly increase property value. Some homeowners expand upwards to add additional bedrooms, master suites, home offices, or family rooms. 

House Extension Process

As experienced house extension builders, we have established a simple process that works for us, our contractors, and most importantly, our clients! Our process includes:

  1. Consultation & Cost Estimation: Our process begins with an in-depth conversation about your project. We'll then provide a transparent quote so you can clearly understand the costs involved.
  2. Drafting & Design: Once we finalise your expectations alongside the talented team of architects we work with, our team will draft detailed plans and sketches that align with the goals discussed during the initial consultation.
  3. Approvals & Planning: We'll review your plans to ensure they comply with all local regulations and zoning requirements and liaise with relevant authorities on your behalf.
  4. Construction & Final Handover: With the plans approved, we'll begin the land preparation and construction process. Throughout construction, we’ll regularly update you on progress and address any concerns that may arise. Once completed, we’ll conduct a final walk-through to ensure you’re satisfied before handing over the keys.
