Planning in Stanmore

What shapes a design here, before a line is drawn.

Check your address
  • Inner West Council assesses homes here, and much of the suburb sits in heritage conservation areas.
  • External work in a conservation area usually needs a DA.
  • A semi shares a wall and a roof line with its pair, so additions are designed with the neighbour in mind.
  • The suburb is under the flight path, so new rooms can need acoustic glazing and insulation.
  • The Property Study confirms the controls for your exact address before you spend on drawings.

Questions people ask in Stanmore

All questions
Can I use a CDC here, or do I need a DA?

Much of the Inner West sits in heritage conservation areas, where external work usually needs a DA. Internal work can often be done as exempt or complying development. The Property Study answers it for your address before any drawing starts.

Can I open up the back of a semi?

Usually. The rear is where conservation controls allow the most change.
