Answer:
Building on a heritage-listed property requires Development Approval (DA) and additional compliance documentation.

What’s involved:

  • Engage a town planner or heritage consultant to guide the DA process
  • Expect extended approval timeframes and stricter design limitations
  • Heritage overlays may limit visual changes or impose material restrictions

Expandify does not manage DA applications internally but will connect you with trusted planning partners if your site is heritage-affected. Your project can still proceed if the design is sympathetic and approved by council.
