Southridge Projects your sloping block and split level home design and building specialist.
Designing and building your dream home or extension on a sloping block is more challenging compared to your traditional extension and renovation project, but it’s well worth it. From elevated views to increasing the value of your home, a sloping block can provide opportunities that cannot be achieved on a level site.
While sloping blocks have unique challenges, engaging a licenced custom builder from the onset results in an extension design that best complements your land, lifestyle and budget.
Split Level Extension
By working with the natural slope of the land, a custom split level extension minimizes the need for extensive excavation and maximizes your home’s footprint, utilizing your block to its fullest potential. When designing an extension for your sloping block, our skilled architects and designers takes into account:
The gradient of the slope and the opportunities it may present, such as tiered gardens, additional parking, multiple outdoor entertaining areas, or a swimming pool
Optimal door and window placement to capture winter sunlight and refreshing breezes during the summer heat
Strategies for maximizing natural light through the use of windows and skylights
Effective drainage solutions and methods for directing water, such as rainwater tanks or stormwater pits
The best options for enhancing the views from your property
Maintaining privacy for you and your neighbours
Your lifestyle preferences and financial considerations
