City of Darebin

Builders in Reservoir

Reservoir offers some of the best redevelopment fundamentals in the inner north: blocks commonly 550 to 700 square metres, wide frontages, and postwar homes nearing the end of their life. That combination makes it one of Darebin's most active suburbs for knockdown rebuilds, duplexes and three-unit sites.

Planning context in the City of Darebin

Much of Reservoir sits in the General Residential Zone, which supports two or more dwellings on suitable blocks, and the suburb carries fewer heritage constraints than Northcote or Thornbury, simplifying approvals for most projects.

Darebin still applies its garden area and landscaping requirements firmly, and corner blocks in Reservoir often unlock an extra dwelling or better driveway layouts. We run the numbers on yield and build cost during the free feasibility so you know what the block can carry.

What we build in Reservoir

  • Duplex Builder: Turn one block into two quality homes. We design and build duplexes end to end, from feasibility and town planning through to handover, on a fixed-price contract.
  • Multi-Unit & Townhouse Builder: Two, three or more dwellings on one block. We take townhouse and unit developments from feasibility and town planning through to construction and handover.
  • Knockdown Rebuild: Love your street but not your house? We demolish the old home and build the new one in its place, managing design, permits, demolition and construction under one roof.
