FAQs About Our Granny Flat or Secondary Dwelling Services

Granny flats and secondary dwellings are similar structures, being self-contained living spaces separate from the main house. Traditionally, granny flats were designed for housing aging family members, while secondary dwellings are a broader term encompassing various purposes, such as accommodating family, generating rental income, or serving as a home office.
Adding a granny flat or secondary dwelling provides flexible living space for family or tenants, potentially generates rental income, and can increase your property’s overall value and appeal.
Building a granny flat or secondary dwelling generally requires council approval to ensure compliance with zoning, building, and safety regulations. Requirements vary by location, but common considerations include block size, floor area, setbacks, parking, and Building Code compliance. Davies Building and Constructions has extensive experience navigating these requirements to ensure a smooth, compliant process.
We carefully consider your property’s characteristics, such as size, shape, and existing structures, to determine the optimal location and layout for your new dwelling. We work closely with you to understand your intended use and preferences, creating a custom design that maximises livability, privacy, and functionality while complementing your main house.

In some areas of North Brisbane, property owners can rent out granny flats or secondary dwellings, subject to local regulations. The rental income potential depends on factors like location, size, quality, and market conditions. Davies Building and Constructions can design and construct dwellings that are attractive to tenants and provide guidance on approvals and certifications for rental use.
