    About Ossher Design and Build

    Premium builders in Bondi, NSW.

    Building in Bondi is its own discipline. Coastal exposure, tight sites, Waverley Council heritage overlays and neighbours close enough to see every delivery, all of it changes how a project needs to be run.

    Ossher Design and Build is a fully licensed Bondi building company delivering custom homes, full renovations, extensions and knockdown rebuilds across Bondi, Bondi Beach, Bronte and the wider Eastern Suburbs. Founder Adam Ossher is personally on every project from feasibility through to handover, no site manager stand-in, no hand-off after contract signing.

    Our approach is simple: building with integrity. That means honest pricing, transparent program reporting, careful trade selection and a real understanding of what long-term performance looks like in a coastal suburb like Bondi.

    From navigating Waverley Council DA and CDC pathways, to specifying marine-grade fixings and breathable coatings, to coordinating architects, engineers and heritage consultants, we handle the parts of a Bondi build most homeowners never want to think about.

    Local Knowledge

    Building in Bondi: council, coastal & what you need to know.

    Building in Bondi isn't like building anywhere else in Sydney. There are specific challenges that catch homeowners and inexperienced builders off guard. Here's what we know.

    Waverley Council Approvals

    We guide you through DA and CDC pathways from day one, preparing documentation that anticipates assessor queries and managing council back-and-forth so approvals don't quietly derail your program.

    Coastal Build Conditions

    Salt air, moisture and wind are constant factors in Bondi. We specify corrosion-resistant fixings, marine-grade joinery hardware and breathable coatings designed to perform ten and twenty years in.

    Heritage & Character Homes

    Federation, Edwardian and Californian bungalows within Bondi's heritage conservation areas, renovated with respect for original joinery, plasterwork and streetscape, with modern performance quietly integrated.

    Tight sites & access

    Many Bondi properties have laneway access only, narrow frontages, or party walls shared with neighbours. We plan crane access, deliveries, site sheds, noise windows and neighbour communication upfront so there are no mid-build surprises that cost you time and money.

    FAQs

    Frequently asked questions.

    Bondi build costs sit at the higher end of Sydney due to tight sites, coastal specification and heritage overlays. As a rough guide, high-end renovations typically start around $6,000 to $8,000 per square metre and custom new homes from $8,000 per square metre, though final pricing depends on scope, finish and site conditions. We'll give you a real feasibility read at the initial consultation.

    Most substantial Bondi projects need a DA through Waverley Council, especially anything changing external appearance, footprint, height or that sits within a heritage conservation area. Simpler works can sometimes go via a CDC. We assess the pathway upfront so you're not surprised.

    Yes. Federation and Edwardian homes across Bondi's heritage conservation streets are a regular part of our work. We collaborate with heritage architects and restoration specialists where required, and prepare DAs that anticipate heritage assessment.

    Full home renovations in Bondi typically run 8 to 14 months on site. New custom builds run 14 to 24 months. Timelines depend on approvals, scope and finish level, we'll give you a clear program at quote stage.

    Yes. When an existing home can't cost-effectively be renovated to meet your brief, we manage the full knockdown rebuild, including demolition, DA approval, architectural coordination and construction, as one continuous program.

    Yes. We hold a current NSW contractor licence and carry full public liability and home warranty insurance on every project.
