Fairfield Home Extensions And Renovations Projects

Homebuyers have much to consider when buying a house. the most important factor is most often the price and then the size of the home and whether it meets the requirements of the buyer come into question. First-time homebuyers often go for smaller accommodations and think that their only option when the home gets too small is to sell.

Fairfield specifically has this issue because it is an attractive suburb for singles, young couples and professionals who quickly outgrow their existing houses. However, selling isn’t the only option – you can renovate or extend the existing structure to meet your needs while increasing the investment value. That is where Period Extensions & Designs come into the picture. With over two decades of experience in home extensions and renovations, we can help you design the house of your dreams right where you are.

Fairfield Lifestyle

The young families in Fairfield generally send their children to St. Anthony’s Primary School which is well established in the area. However, there are other options for both primary and secondary education in the nearby areas. The lifestyle is generally laid-back and quiet and residents can commute by car or train to Melbourne for entertainment and work. 

Types Of Homes In Fairfield

Properties are in high demand in the up-and-coming suburb. Established free-standing houses in a variety of styles are available to meet the needs of different types of homebuyers. Townhouses are also an option. There are also some spectacular period homes, Victorian mansions, and especially, Edwardian homes that have undergone creative renovations to retain an authentic, warm and inviting style. 

Fairfield Median House Prices

The current median price for a freestanding house for a 4 bedroom is around $1.6 million. This clearly shows that an extension or renovation often makes more sense to increase the market value of your home.

Even if you are relocating for reasons beyond your control and have no option but to sell, renovations or extensions could increase the value and therefore the selling price of your property. Period Extensions & Designs will be happy to sit down and discuss your particular needs and how we can help you bring the best out of your existing home in Fairfield.
