What is a Minor Dwelling?
A minor dwelling (also known as a granny flat or second dwelling) is a small, self-contained unit on the same section as your primary home. It usually includes:
- 1–2 bedrooms
- Full kitchen & bathroom
- Private entrance
- Laundry facilities
- Up to 65m² (subject to zone and consent)
It’s a great solution for multi-generational living or income-generating rental property — and it adds long-term value to your home.
