Studio Granny Flats' Advantages
A studio granny flat is a simple, inexpensive solution for homeowners wanting more room. Because of their smaller size, they are cheaper and quicker to construct than regular granny flats. By going with a studio granny flat, you can raise the value of your home and earn additional money from rent. Pillar Build Granny Flats offers ready-made or custom designs for studio granny flats to suit any lifestyle.
Describe the Granny Flat.
Granny flats, also known as supplemental residences, are recognized as fully autonomous living units separate from the main property and allowed by planning rules when built by specific requirements. These detached secondary homes offer self-contained living spaces and all the facilities needed for single occupancy. While they are often restricted to 60 square meters in NSW and 90 square meters in ACT, there can be exceptions in some places that allow for more extensive arrangements. Renting out a legally recognized second home, like a granny flat, can bring in money.
Required Studio Granny Flat
Apartments with little space for a granny flat are best suited for studio granny flats. The largest granny flat size is determined by the size of the lot behind your home. Granny flats in a studio are more condensed and perfect for smaller lots. Studios are the same as granny flats regarding their main requirements and building permits. Regarding studio-style granny flats, you'll need to consider your design and the available room seriously.
One room works well for everything, but it needs to be comfortable if someone is going to live there. Some creative uses of storage and multipurpose furniture are examples of design elements. By including fold-away tables, beds, chairs, and couches with hidden storage, you can increase the amount of room inside your granny flat and give the impression that it is larger and more enticing to renters or visitors.
Distinguishing a Studio from a Granny Flat
The degree of independence and intended use separates a Granny Flat from a studio. A Granny Flat, sometimes called a secondary residence, is a stand-alone house that requires a separate kitchen to be considered suitable for year-round occupancy. On the other hand, a studio is used for specialized pastimes like crafting or painting and is connected to its parent house. It needs a kitchen and a washing room; therefore, even if it might include separate living areas, such as a bathroom and even a sleeping area, it cannot be considered a permanent residence. The National Construction Code also upholds this crucial distinction.
Studio Apartment Granny Flat Floor Plans
19.80m² – 21m² Floor Plan
This 5500 x 3600 mm studio apartment is a common choice for those constructing granny flats. It features a balcony and two roof design options: skillion and gable. The first type of roof choice, a skillion roof, has a single plane roof surface as opposed to a typical slope roof with two sloped sides in the middle. Skillion has uneven roofs. Instead, they are sloping, which gives them a modern architectural look. You can also choose to have a verandah with this 19.80m² studio. Depending on your locality, a patio or deck can make a studio feel more like a home. It has additional space for outside sitting and a gabled roof.
Floor Plan for 27m²
The Protea Headsitter studio is a good size at 6000 x 4500 mm. It features oversized doors, a skillion roof, and an artistically designed interior. The spacious living and kitchen area of the unit features a raked ceiling. The ceiling design uses the building's inherent trusses and structure to create a more open and breezy space than one with a flat roof. The laundry and restroom offer practicality and seclusion within the structure's framework. There needs to be more space for improvement in this studio granny flat layout because so many windows let light in.
