What a kitchen renovation project looks like here

Strathfield Council's Heritage Conservation Area covers a notable proportion of the suburb's pre-1940 stock — DA assessments here screen for retention of Federation iron lacework, slate roofs, and cedar joinery as baseline expectations.

Strathfield's typical lot widths run 18-25m with substantial setbacks from the kerb — this allows wraparound extensions and second-storey additions that wouldn't be feasible in the inner-west or eastern suburbs.

Strathfield LEP 2012 R2 zone caps FSR at 0.6:1 on most lots, materially higher than Concord or Five Dock — this means renovation scopes here can support substantially larger floor plates than peer suburbs.

In Strathfield specifically, federation queen anne stock means kitchen renovation scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
