Beecroft Dual Home Development – Custom Residential Design by Distinct Innovations
As trusted Building Designers in Beecroft, part of Sydney’s Hills District and close to the North Shore, we were engaged to create two new homes on a subdivided 2,400m² block. This project called for innovative residential design solutions that respected Beecroft’s unique character while delivering modern functionality.
Project Challenges
-
Heritage and Conservation Restrictions - ensuring a custom home design that blended seamlessly into Beecroft’s heritage streetscape.
-
Bushfire Compliance - designing homes that met strict safety requirements for bushfire-prone zones.
-
Tree Protection Controls - preserving significant mature trees while achieving design and building compliance.
-
Tight Building Envelope - maximising design potential within a restricted 250m² building area.
Our Approach
Over a 12-month design and approval process, we collaborated with council, consultants, and neighbours to achieve Development Application (DA) approval. By maintaining a traditional and understated architectural style, the homes complement Beecroft’s heritage while providing modern liveability.
As part of our service, Distinct Innovations also provided a detailed Schedule of Finishes. This allowed the builder to deliver a cohesive and consistent interior design outcome, ensuring the vision carried through from planning to construction.
The Result
The completed design delivers two homes that:
-
Meet all regulatory and compliance requirements.
-
Enhance the character of Beecroft and the wider Hills District.
-
Showcase the value of working with an experienced Building Designer that understands heritage, subdivision, and custom residential design.
-
A layout that maximised the developer’s profits by making full use of the subdivision potential and site constraints
