Renovation, Extension & New Home Builders in Ivanhoe

Ivanhoe is known for its leafy streets, period homes and proximity to the Yarra River parklands — a suburb where character homes and considered new architecture sit side by side. Whether it's sensitively extending an established home or starting fresh with a knockdown rebuild, projects here tend to be about getting the design right as much as the construction.
Transform Homes builds across Ivanhoe as part of our northern and north-eastern suburbs service area, bringing a design & build approach that keeps design, budget and buildability connected from the start.
Why Transform Homes in Ivanhoe
Ivanhoe's mix of established character homes and sloping or elevated sites near the river valley means design decisions early on — orientation, access, drainage, existing trees — can materially affect what's achievable and what it costs. Our design & build process brings that construction perspective into the design stage, working alongside your architect or designer (or ours, if needed) so the plans that go to council are ones we know can be delivered to budget.

What we build in Ivanhoe
- New homes — light-filled family homes, entertainer-style layouts and considered forever homes designed around how you live
- Renovations & extensions — second-storey additions and extensions that respect a period façade while opening the home up behind it
- Design & build — full service from site analysis and concept design through council approvals, construction and handover
Our process, wherever you're building
Every Transform Homes project follows the same structured path: an initial discovery conversation at your home, a preliminary estimate before detailed design begins, design and selections, a fixed price proposal and contract, construction with fortnightly site meetings and weekly written updates, and a full handover pack at completion. You have 24/7 access to our project management system throughout, so you always know where your build stands.
Yes. Ivanhoe is within our service area for new home builds, knockdown rebuilds, renovations and extensions.
Yes, we have experience constructing new homes and extensions on sloping sites, which is relevant to parts of Ivanhoe close to the river valley.
Either. We work with architects on many builds, can build from plans you already have, or offer a full design & build service if you'd prefer one team managing the whole process.
A preliminary estimate is prepared first, followed by a fixed price proposal and contract once your design and selections are finalised — so there are no surprises once construction begins.
