Building style
Small home

This new house is built on a tight corner block in Five Dock, overlooking Canada Bay. The house was designed for a family with three young boys.

The design of the house takes into account the unique corner position and maximises the access to both views and northern aspects by stretching along the southern boundary – rather than occupy the middle of the block.

The living area and kitchen are located on the upper storey of the house, opening onto a large, covered outdoor entertaining area – which capitalises on the fantastic 270-degree views of surrounding parkland.

Working closely with the client to design joinery and select the interior finishes has resulted in a seamless project from outside to inside that functions perfectly for the site and for the inhabitants.

About the
Professional

Utz Sanby Architects is an award-winning practice focused on delivering high-quality residential projects. Established in 1994 we have a reputation for delivering great design, service and buildings. We are passionate about design that enhances the lives of our clients, resulting in a positive change to how they live.

We provide a full architectural service for the duration of a project, from initial concept to completion, covering the following progressive stage.

Because the design and construction process can be daunting, we endeavour to communicate, educate and assist clients throughout the process, so that the experience of the design and build is both rewarding and satisfying.

Additional services that we provide include:

  • Pre-purchase site visits – for advice regarding the development potential of a site, in order to help make an informed decision prior to purchasing.
  • Feasibility studies – including analysis of brief and budget; assessment of council constraints; preliminary opinion of probable cost, which may include initial conceptual design.
  • Interiors and furniture selection – our full architectural service includes a selection of internal finishes, colours, tiles, lighting, sanitary and tapware and door hardware. We can also advise on the selection of furniture, fabrics, blinds and lighting.
At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
