Following the easing of Western Australia’s construction
regulation this year, granny flats have never been this popular. With the new
rule, even non-family members can now rent granny flats. So the possibilities
have become broader. And along with the soaring demand comes the homeowners’
excitement to take advantage of their vacant lots for added family income. But
if you want to go with the new trend, you might need to sit down and list only
what you need and what goes along with your budget.
One good example is the choice to build granny flats design with
multiple bedrooms. Be aware that for each small changes and add-ons, expenses
could soar to thousands of dollars. So there are options that you might want to
take a look even before starting the construction
Small areas usually command one-bedroom granny flats. In
this case, the living room, dining room and cooking area are often joined into
one location, while the furnishings function as dividers. This relatively more
compact place is perfect for students searching for an inexpensive flat in
close proximity to their school. Newlyweds who want to get started living in a
new home but with limited resources would definitely find the one-bedroom flat
as the right answer to their needs.
But when time comes that your grannies need to live a little
more dependently in their later years, they will definitely have a home to
keep.
When a single bedroom isn’t enough for a larger family, or
when you plan to lease your flat to a family with kids, you might just need a
double-bedroom layout. You can even purposely build the extra room for you or
your kids when you sleep over with the grannies at the flat. There are many
granny flat designs with two bedrooms that look more like another fully-functional
house within your backyard.
If you require a granny flat that’s designed to do more than
merely accommodating a small family, go for the three-bedroom unit. This is
definitely suitable for very large families who prefer to stay closer to each other.
However, keep in mind that in Western Australia, the allowed maximum area for a
granny flat is 70 square meters. So this could mean sacrificing some portion of
the kitchen area or living room to make way for the three rooms.
When trying to save more money in setting up a new granny
flat with more rooms, you can opt for kit granny flats, which your granny flat
builders can professionally install for you. Or for greater customization,
going with the traditional brick and mortar process can provide you a more
durable structure. For more information, call your granny flat builders today
