Multi-unit townhouse
The Brief

Four executive three-bedroom townhouses on a constricted inner-city site in St Albans, completed 2016. The project involved demolition of four two-storey 1930s flats, and the development of a quality owner-occupier and investor product on the cleared footprint.

The site presented significant engineering challenges: large timber piling was required with a rib raft slab, and the building envelope was very tight with nominal tolerances to all boundaries throughout construction.

The Work

BF Property managed demolition of the existing four 1930s flats, full site preparation, and construction of four new townhouses under a fixed-price head contract.

Engineering: large timber piling with rib raft slab. Highly constrained building envelope with nominal tolerances to all boundaries — requiring precise programming and tight site management throughout.

Cladding: Hebel (AAC block) and cedar in combination with stone facade elements. Each unit specified to executive standard: gas fireplace and heat pump, double glazing throughout, engineered stone kitchen, under-tile heating in bathrooms, master bedroom with ensuite and walk-in robe. Exposed aggregate north-facing shared courtyard. Internal-access single garage per unit. Stratum in freehold titles.

The Outcome

Four executive townhouses delivered on a challenging constrained site. Exposed aggregate north-facing courtyard, gas fireplaces, and custom timber built-in shelving throughout — a mid-to-high specification product in a well-located inner city position.
