Knockdown Rebuild
Build Bold. Build Better. Build Legacy.

We help you transform your existing property into the dream home you have always wanted, combining expert advice, local knowledge, and a commitment to delivering a stress-free knockdown rebuild experience.


Why Choose a Knockdown-Rebuild with SJD Homes?
Maximise Your Land’s Potential
A knockdown-rebuild lets you start fresh with a modern layout and energy-efficient features, maximising your land’s potential. This approach avoids the hidden costs and limitations that often come with extensive renovations. You’ll have a brand-new home with all the latest design and technology, tailored to suit your lifestyle.
Avoiding Stamp Duty and Selling Costs
By staying on your current property, you avoid costly stamp duties, real estate fees, and moving costs associated with buying a new home. Instead, you can put those funds directly toward creating your dream home on land you already own.
Design Flexibility and Choice
Unlike a renovation or buying a home, a knockdown-rebuild provides the freedom to select a layout and features that truly fit your needs. From floorplan flexibility to the latest in kitchen, bathroom, and outdoor designs, our experts help you personalise every detail.

With the latest in sustainable building methods, SJD Homes can incorporate energy-efficient designs and materials, helping you achieve lower running costs and a more environmentally friendly home.
