Extensions · Kensington 3031
Kensington extensions focus on the rear, with modern living, light and a courtyard, or a set-back second storey where heritage rules allow.
Kensington has Victorian terraces and workers' cottages on narrow lots, with heritage overlays across much of the suburb.
NMB Homes is a second-generation family builder based in Coburg North. We've been building in Melbourne's inner north and inner west since 1993, under fixed-price contracts, with Ninos personally involved in every job.

Much of Kensington is under heritage overlays managed by the City of Melbourne.
Narrow streets and lots mean careful planning for deliveries and neighbours.
What's Included
We manage your extension from the first consultation to handover, so you deal with one team, not a string of trades.
Extensions typically take between 6 weeks and 6 months on site, depending on size, and whether you're going out or up. We give you a detailed schedule at your consultation.



Questions
Almost all extensions need a building permit. Some also need a planning permit from the City of Melbourne, for example where a heritage overlay applies or depending on your lot and zoning. We check your property's controls before quoting and manage the permits for you.
