About this category
1 studio granny flats designs.
A studio granny flat is the smallest self-contained secondary dwelling format we build — everything in one room (combined living, sleep, kitchenette) plus a full bathroom. Ideal for backyards where every square metre of outdoor space matters, or for owners who need secondary accommodation without giving up half the yard.
Even at 25m², studio granny flats require full CDC or DA approval — they are not exempt from approval requirements regardless of size. The compact footprint just makes CDC eligibility easier to achieve.
Frequently asked
Studio Granny Flats questions.
How small can a granny flat be in NSW?
No formal minimum, but practical studio granny flats start at 25m² to fit a combined living-sleep zone, kitchenette and full bathroom. Anything smaller struggles to function as a genuine dwelling.
Does a studio granny flat need council approval?
Yes. Regardless of size, permanent plumbed and connected dwellings require CDC or DA approval in NSW. Studios can qualify for the fast-track CDC pathway on eligible blocks (450m² minimum).
