What is a Granny Flat
A granny flat can be defined as a fully self contained home extension or secondary dwelling that is built on the same lot of land that the main home is. Essentially, it is another, smaller home on your property, ideally suitable for elderly grandparents to live close by, or for a growing family requiring a teenager retreat.
Local councils will dictate what the maximum size of a granny flat can be – usually no more than 60 square meters in most states including NSW and VIC – notably more lenient in WA (70 square meters) and ACT (90 square meters).
In some states notably NSW and WA, granny flats are allowed to rent out which might be a smart way to significantly increase passive rental income for property investors.
iBuild Granny Flats Nationwide
Everything you need to build the granny flat, including the plans and components of the dwelling, can be delivered to your site and can then be constructed by either a licensed builder, or yourself if you decide to obtain an owner builder license. Below are some of our one-bedroom and two-bedroom granny flat designs.
Who Is Going To Build?
Our home kits are designed in such a way that you can easily assemble them yourself as an owner builder or have them erected as owner manager. However, if you prefer, there might be an assembly service available through our affiliated builder network (subject to builder availability). Click below to learn more.
