About Stanhope Gardens
Building in Stanhope Gardens.
Stanhope Gardens combines established streets with proximity to Norwest, Bella Vista and Stanhope Village. Most projects are knockdown rebuilds — families staying in the area and building for the next 20 years. Single-storey four-bed plans and refined doubles both feature.
Blacktown LGA
Postcode 2768
Stanhope Gardens is an estate suburb between Kellyville and Glenwood, built around Stanhope Village shopping centre. Kellyville Metro station is about two kilometres away by road, which has made the suburb popular with families who commute east.
Plenty of homes here were bought as first homes and have been outgrown. The usual brief is more bedrooms, a bigger kitchen and a living area that opens to the yard — without moving schools.
Common projects in Stanhope Gardens
Single-storey homes on regular lots are good candidates for a second-storey addition: bedrooms go upstairs and the ground floor is reworked into open living. Where the house is small, dated and needs a new roof anyway, rebuilding can make more sense.
Some owners look at adding a granny flat for an older parent instead of extending. That keeps the main house as it is but depends on lot size, access and the Housing SEPP standards.
Planning in Stanhope Gardens
Stanhope Gardens falls under Blacktown City Council and the Blacktown Local Environmental Plan 2015. Additions, new homes and secondary dwellings can often be approved as complying development if they meet the state standards.
Easements are worth checking early. Sewer and drainage lines running through rear yards are common in estate suburbs and can rule out building over part of the lot.
Authoritative planning sources
Controls vary by lot and can change. Confirm the current zoning, overlays and approval pathway for the property before relying on general guidance.

Common questions
Building in Stanhope Gardens: common questions.
Can I build over a sewer line in my Stanhope Gardens backyard?+
Usually not directly. Sydney Water has rules for building near or over its assets, and some lines need a minimum clearance. We locate easements and pipes before design.
Is it cheaper to add a storey or rebuild?+
Adding a storey avoids demolition and a new slab, but involves working around an occupied or partly stripped house. When the roof, kitchen and bathrooms all need replacing too, a rebuild is often comparable. We cost both.
Can I add a granny flat for my parents?+
If the lot is at least 450 m² and meets the Housing SEPP standards, a granny flat can usually be approved as complying development. We check access, setbacks and services first.
Which council covers Stanhope Gardens?+
Blacktown City Council, under the Blacktown LEP 2015.
