121 Surrey Road, Blackburn Project
Hudson Building Co. is proud to announce the successful handover of 121 Surrey Road, Blackburn this August—a project that showcases our trademark attention to detail and ability to deliver architecturally designed homes with precision and care.
A Special Blackburn Build
This wasn’t just another development. 121 Surrey Road was an architecturally designed two-unit project, featuring a variety of external materials that give the homes a striking street presence. For Blackburn locals, it’s a perfect example of how thoughtful design and quality construction can transform one of the suburb’s busy main roads into a stylish and welcoming residential address.
Overcoming the Challenges
Building on a main road in Blackburn brought its own hurdles—particularly around managing machinery and deliveries safely. With forward planning and dedicated traffic management, our team kept the project moving efficiently while maintaining the safety of the community and our trades.
Standout Design Features
Every Hudson Building Co. project includes details that set it apart. At Surrey Road, several features shone through:
-
Powder-coated exposed steel beams in the alfresco area.
-
A cantilevered front entry to Unit 1.
-
A show-stopping 1200mm wide Vic Ash-stained stairwell in Unit 2.
These elements not only highlight architectural flair but also reflect the craftsmanship of our in-house carpenters and trusted trades.

Our commitment to planning and quality control means we approach each build as if it were our own home. That’s why our clients—and their clients—can trust that every corner, beam, and finish is handled with care.
Our Standards in Action
What makes us proudest at Hudson Building Co. is not just the final product, but the process behind it. We completed this Blackburn project in under 11 months, even with the Christmas shutdown period included. Weekly in-house meetings ensured milestones were met without rushing trades, allowing every detail to meet Australian Standards.
Materials and Partnerships
A special thank you goes to our valued trades and suppliers, who made this Blackburn project possible:
-
Ranger Plumbing
-
Millerco Technologies
-
Bownes – timber framing, cladding, and internal materials
Reliable partners like these are vital to delivering builds that are on time and on standard.
Lessons for Future Homeowners
For Blackburn families considering a new build or unit development, 121 Surrey Road proves that with forward planning, clear scheduling, and open communication, even multi-unit projects can stay on time and budget. A fixed contract is possible when everything is mapped out at the beginning, including all materials and finishes.
What’s Next for Hudson Building Co.?
Fresh from this Blackburn success, our team has already begun an architectural renovation and extension in Croydon. This exciting project will feature a new roof structure with a 4.5m high raked ceiling and a stunning alfresco area.
As always, our focus remains on delivering builds that combine architectural beauty, structural integrity, and meticulous craftsmanship.
