My client would like to have an application on Linux x86 platform that would work as controller and manage z-wave devices using z-wave developer kit.

Does anyone know how would such application look like from technical point of view?
Is it possible to reuse existing SDK code or one has to do everything from scratch?

Sure you can (and probably should) use existing SDK, because writing it from scratch is a pain, and takes a lot of effort.

As of Z-Way, we provide both C and JS-level APIs.
If you want to use C-level SDK, you get a C library and write entire application (in C/C++ or any other language supporting C bindings) using our public APIs. For example, there's a Python wrapper available.
If you want to use JS, you may just customize web UI for your client, and let the backend do the job. All the interaction will be possible through REST API.

Of course, there are SDKs from other vendors that might (or might not) meet your criteria.
