The brief
A multi-level Bilgola Beach home where the interior layout no longer worked and street access was inadequate. The brief was split into two stages: internal works and outdoor living improvements first, then a new driveway and garage requiring DA approval.
The response
Stage one focuses on internal improvements that may qualify as exempt development: opening the kitchen by removing an internal wall, infilling windows for improved light and privacy, relocating storage, and adding a pergola and patio for outdoor entertaining. Stage two requires a development application for external works: a new driveway and garage to resolve the steep site's access challenges.
