From the beach to the Pittwater foreshore, Newport is in the middle of a generational rebuild. We prepare DA and CDC plans for Newport renovations, extensions and brand-new homes.
Local knowledge: Newport
Newport's mix of original beach cottages and newer prestige homes makes it a knockdown-rebuild hotspot. Whether you're extending a weatherboard classic or starting fresh, the site's orientation, slope and foreshore proximity drive what's possible. We design to Northern Beaches Council's controls and flag early whether your project can use the faster CDC pathway.
