Unlocking the Value of Secondary Dwellings

More Than Just a Granny Flat…

Granny flats are no longer just for granny! These self-contained, versatile spaces have become one of the smartest ways to increase livable space—and property value—across Sydney’s Northern Beaches and North Shore.

At Brands Built, we’ve seen the growing demand for high-quality granny flats, and we’re here to show you just how valuable these additions can be.


Why Build a Granny Flat?

Whether you’re looking to house family, generate passive income, or create a flexible work-from-home space, granny flats offer incredible benefits:

  • Rental Income: Earn extra income by leasing out the flat

  • Multi-Generational Living: Keep loved ones close while giving everyone their own space

  • Home Office or Studio: A peaceful, purpose-built place to work or create

  • Increase Property Value: A well-designed granny flat adds serious resale appeal

  • Future Flexibility: Great for aging parents now, teenage retreats later—or your own lifestyle down the track


Designed for the Way You Live

We don’t do “one-size-fits-all.” Every granny flat we build is customised to meet your block, your style, and your needs. Our design process focuses on:

  • Smart space-saving layouts

  • Seamless integration with the main property

  • High-quality finishes and modern design

  • Compliance with local council regulations

We handle the entire process—from planning and approvals to construction and final handover—so you don’t have to stress.


Is Your Property Suitable?

Most homes across the Northern Beaches and North Shore can qualify for a granny flat if:

  • Your block is 450m² or larger

  • You have a minimum 12m wide frontage

  • You can provide separate access to the flat

  • You meet council setback and height requirements

Don’t worry—we’ll assess your site and walk you through what’s possible.

A granny flat is more than an add-on—it’s a smart investment in your lifestyle and future. Whether you’re planning for family or thinking long-term, the Brands Built team is ready to help you bring your vision to life.
