Benefits of Narrow Lot Plans

Affordable

Narrow block homes in Sydney typically cost less than bigger frontage homes. This means they are a terrific, cost-effective option for first-home buyers or a great compromise for owners who want to allocate a bigger budget to the best premium finishes. 

Lifestyle convenience

Their inner-urban locations mean narrow block houses are usually close to schools, shops, cafes, restaurants, public transport and other amenities, offering a highly desirable lifestyle. 

Sustainable

Small block house plans typically require fewer construction materials, whilst a reduced footprint usually means lower energy consumption. 

Low maintenance

Generally speaking, smaller homes require less time and effort to maintain, so you’re freed up to make the most of the lifestyle they provide. 

Customisable

Limited land doesn’t mean limited options. Kurmond custom homes offer features and choices that truly make your house a dream.
Don’t let size stop you from dreaming big.
