Home Extensions Forest Lodge
Built For The Way You Live
Forest Lodge is filled with classic Victorian and Federation terraces built between 1880 and 1920, typically on narrow blocks around 150 to 200 square metres. These homes often have compact rear yards and limited internal space, making a well planned extension the perfect solution for growing families who want to stay in the area. The original layouts rarely suit modern living, with small kitchens and minimal connection to outdoor space.
We’ve completed dozens of extensions throughout Forest Lodge and neighbouring suburbs like Glebe and Annandale, working with the heritage character of these older homes. Our team understands the local building conditions, from sandstone footings to council requirements for heritage conservation areas. Every project is managed in house by our licensed builders who know these streets inside out.
Forest Lodge sits close to Sydney University, the CBD and Glebe’s cafes, making it highly desirable for families and professionals who want inner city living. Property values here continue to climb, and a quality extension can add $200,000 to $400,000 in value while giving you the extra space you need. Rather than moving further out and losing the lifestyle, most homeowners find extending their existing home makes better financial and practical sense.

Don't Take Our Word For It
"I contacted Monstructions to get an idea of a price for doing an extension on my home. Of course I contacted many other people but they were the only ones who came back to me and assisted in giving me an idea of the price. I was so grateful. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this company as we couldn't be more happy with the team, thank you for your help and support."
Amanda
"We had a plan of what we wanted with our 2nd story + granny flat addition, but also had a budget to meet..the Monstructions team worked hard to make that happen for us. With a few little hiccups along the way from weather delays, the boys kept the job moving as smoothly as possible and the team were amazing in keeping mess to a minimum. Allowing us to stay at home during the reno. 100% highly recommended!"
Angela
"Fantastic! Monstructions did an amazing job on my home extension, all the boys that worked on my house were professional and polite, and their quality of work was second to none. From drawings to completion it was a breeze working with them. They were easy to work with and extremely efficient and professional. Thank you for all the hard work and effort, I will recommend you to everyone I know."
