Hi guys, am at the exploratory stage to determine if it makes sense to extend the 2nd storey of a 2 storey corner terrace house. Currently the ground floor is already extended to the max allowed under an A&A work done 20 yrs back. What will be an indicative cost to extend the room behind to the max and ensuite it. looking at a 150sq area more of extension. ANy input will be appreciated!

thanks guys for all these useful info. Fren bro, pray tell gimme more details what you meant by the previous owner didnt max out GFA. Did you do A&A or reconstruct? Anyone can give me an idea how big the attic can do? i.e ensuite room attic what kind of suare feet are we looking at. thanks!!!

Thank you for your insight. Ideally I will like to maximise the land space, and build up to 3 storey. Under the URA MP08, my area is shown as 2 storey mixed residence. Does it means it is not allowed to do 3 storey? I was hoping to have an idea how high I can build up before commissioning a architect to start work.

Hi guys! been lurkin around for a while, really informative place where I been learning a lot from helpful contributors here. I have a 2 storey 45yr old corner terrace, in a estate off upper thomson. land size 209sm (2250sq?). 3 beds (non ensuite) and and 1 standalone bathroom on the 2nd storey, 1st floor will have a maid's room and a common washroom. I have seen some neighbours buliding an attic, some even a 3 storey, and wonder if I can do that too. Before I engaged some expert to start the process, just wondering if anyone here might have a similar sized terrace and is doing, or done some work already. Importantly I will like to know if I can add a bathroom to each of the bedrooms, and have a 3rd storey ideally with 2 bedrooms ensuite. I gathered that A&A is out of the picture given the extensive work, so probably a reconstruction? Also, what sort of bulid up area size will I be potentially looking at? Thanks for any valuable inputs! daniel
