Maximise Space Without Losing Land

In the densely populated heart of Sydney, space is at a premium. Whether you're looking to expand your living area, accommodate a growing family, or add value to your property, a second-storey extension offers the ideal solution—no need to sacrifice precious backyard space.

At Inner City Attics & Extensions, we specialise in second-storey additions designed to suit the unique architecture, council regulations, and urban lifestyle of Sydney’s inner suburbs. From heritage terraces in Surry Hills to modern homes in Newtown, we craft elevated spaces that integrate seamlessly with your existing structure.

Why Choose a Second Storey?

  • Double the Space, Same Footprint: Add bedrooms, bathrooms, or a private retreat without encroaching on outdoor areas.

  • Increase Property Value: A well-executed second storey can significantly boost resale value in Sydney’s competitive real estate market.

  • Customised to Your Needs: We design around your lifestyle—whether it’s open-plan family living or a self-contained upper level.

Tailored for the Inner City

Navigating the complexities of inner-city extensions requires local expertise. We bring:

  • Deep knowledge of local councils including City of Sydney, Inner West, and Woollahra.

  • Experience with heritage overlays and DA processes specific to older homes.

  • Solutions for limited access and tight site conditions, common in dense neighbourhoods.

Our Process

  1. Consultation & Feasibility Study: We assess your home’s structure and council requirements to determine the best approach.

  2. Custom Design: Collaborate with our architects and designers to create a layout that meets your needs and aesthetic.

  3. Council Approvals: We manage the entire approval process, including Development Applications and Complying Development Certificates.

  4. Construction & Project Management: Our licensed builders deliver high-quality craftsmanship with minimal disruption to your daily life.

  5. Handover: Your new space is ready to enjoy—clean, compliant, and built to last.

  • Master bedroom with ensuite

  • Home office or study nook

  • Rumpus or family room

  • Additional bathroom or powder room

  • Balcony or rooftop terrace with inner-city views
