Albert Park Home Renovations And Extensions Projects

One of the questions many growing families will have to face at one time or another is whether to move or extend. Although some people find the prospect of moving to a new suburb exciting, if you love where you are living, it can be very hard to uproot and leave.

However, some older homes often lack the functional space and modern appeal that allows a growing family to live a comfortable lifestyle. An extra bedroom, family room, or bathroom will not only add to the space you need but will also add considerable value to your home. 

If you decide that renovating or extending is a good option for you, Period Extensions & Designs have an entire team of experts designers and professional builders to help make your dream home a reality in Albert Park.

Why Choose Albert Park?

Located just 3 kilometres south of the central business district, Albert Park forms part of an Aboriginal cultural landscape situated in the traditional country that belonged to the Bunurong people. Albert Park’s greatest claim to fame is the fact that it has been the venue for the Australian Formula One Grand Prix since 1996.

Named after Prince Albert, this picturesque inner-city suburb of Melbourne, measuring about 3.2 square kilometres, features the beautiful, man-made Albert Park Lake where the best function venue for weddings and large celebrations, ‘The Park’, can be found.
