Extensions · Coburg 3058
Many Coburg families love their bungalow or period cottage but have outgrown it. The most common answer is a rear extension with open-plan living opening to the backyard, or a second storey for bedrooms. We design the extension to suit the original home, which matters in streets where heritage controls apply.
Coburg has a real mix: Victorian and Edwardian cottages near Sydney Road, Californian bungalows and interwar brick homes through the middle streets, and post-war houses on bigger blocks further north.
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.
Local Knowledge
NMB Homes is based in Coburg North, so Coburg jobs are minutes from our office. That means quicker site visits and easier day-to-day supervision.
Period cottages, bungalows and post-war homes each need a different approach to structure, stumps and services. We plan for it from the first visit.
Parts of Coburg are under heritage overlays managed by Merri-bek Council. We check your address before quoting, so permit requirements are known up front.
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 Merri-bek City Council, 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.
