MGR Building Group — Second Storey Addition
What is Second Storey Addition?
A Second Storey Addition is the construction of a new upper level above your existing home, offering significant extra living space without reducing your backyard or outdoor areas. This is an ideal solution for growing families, multi-generational living, or increasing property value in high-demand suburbs.
Adding a second storey requires detailed planning and structural assessment to ensure your home can support the additional load. Key considerations include reinforcing foundations, integrating new stair access, maintaining architectural continuity, and complying with local council and ResCode requirements such as overlooking, height limits, and setbacks.
Second storey additions provide flexible layout options—such as extra bedrooms, bathrooms, home offices, or private retreats—while preserving the function and openness of your ground floor living areas.
