The level of ongoing support – you didn’t leave at the completion of the build and owners are not left to their own devices.
It’s a great customer experience, you followed up, completed maintenance items after build completion and made it a very easy process throughout the maintenance stage. Plus maintenance manager was amazing – supportive, very well organised, responsive, and consistently kept us updated.

What is a 
Knockdown Rebuild?
When the leafy streets, premier school zones, or the quaint cafe close to home, is just too good to give up, a Knockdown Rebuild allows you to keep the location, while creating a brand-new home that reflects your interior dreams.

A Knockdown Rebuild offers the opportunity to start fresh, with a brand-new home (or homes) on the same cherished block.

Frequently
asked questions
At Carter Grange, we believe a Knockdown Rebuild is definitely worth considering if you cherish your current neighbourhood however your home demands major renovations. A Knockdown Rebuild solves the problem of purchasing land in an already established area where options are limited, while also saving you substantial Stamp Duty costs given you already own the land.
Deciding to undertake a Knockdown Rebuild is a significant choice that impacts your finances, emotions, and day-to-day life. However, it can also be the most gratifying way to remain in the neighbourhood you adore while creating a home that aligns with your lifestyle. As Melbourne’s leading custom home builder, Carter Grange offers an end-to-end custom design and build solution, delivering a tailored approach to your residential project. From site assessment and permits, to custom interior design and construction, our specialised team takes care of everything so you can enjoy every step of the process.
No, if you already own the land, there is no stamp duty for a Knockdown Rebuild. In Victoria, stamp duty is applicable only when land is transferred (meaning purchased, either in conjunction with an established house or solely on its own). Since no land is being purchased or transferred when completing a Knockdown Rebuild project, you completely avoid this cost.
At Carter Grange, we offer a transparent and all-inclusive cost breakdown that covers essential variable costs for your Knockdown Rebuild. During our initial meetings, we discuss site preparation expenses, including demolition and clearing, as well as planning and building permit fees specific to your local council. We also address construction costs, utility connections, and landscaping expenses. The beauty of our custom design approach is our ability to adapt to your budget, allowing us to be flexible in how to allocate funds to maximise your project’s value while ensuring every potential cost is considered.
Of course! Our in-house interior design service, Byron Interiors, is an invaluable tool to utilise when planning your Knockdown Rebuild project. Our skilled Interior Designers will collaborate with you to define your vision and create a space that reflects your personality and lifestyle.
