Our 2 Bedroom Granny Flat Designs

We offer one of the widest ranges of 2 bedroom granny flat designs in Sydney, each named and refined over years of building. Our two bedroom collection includes the Altitude, Amesbury, Deluxe, Greenhills, Orion, Pandora and Phoenix, along with The Apex, The Atlas, The Cedars, The Crown, The Horizon, The Phoenician, The Star, The Ultimate and the Waratah.

Most of these designs are built to a standard 60 square metre footprint, the maximum allowed for a granny flat under complying development, so you get the most usable space the rules permit. A few, such as The Star at 53 square metres, come in slightly smaller for tighter blocks. Browse our all granny flat designs to compare each layout side by side.

Each design has its own character. Some prioritise a large open plan living zone, others give more weight to bedroom size or a defined entry. Because we build across all of Sydney, we can steer you toward the layout that best matches your block, your budget and whether you are building for family or for rental. And if none fits perfectly, we adapt one to suit.

2 Bedroom Granny Flat Floor Plans

Our 2 bedroom floor plans are designed around real living. Open plan kitchen, living and dining zones create a sense of space, while both bedrooms are positioned for privacy and natural light. Many layouts flow out to a porch or outdoor area, blurring the line between indoors and out and making the home feel larger than its 60 square metres.

Smart storage is built in throughout, with wardrobes, a laundry and cabinetry planned into the design rather than added as an afterthought. If your block has a particular orientation or outlook, we can adjust the plan so the living areas capture the best light and aspect.

The two bedroom format also gives you options over time. A second bedroom can serve as a nursery, a study, a hobby room or a guest space, and it adapts as your household changes. For investors, that same flexibility widens the pool of potential tenants, from young couples and small families to professionals who want a spare room. It is this adaptability, as much as the extra floor area, that makes the two bedroom granny flat the configuration Sydney homeowners request most often.

How Much Does a 2 Bedroom Granny Flat Cost in Sydney?

The cost of a 2 bedroom granny flat in Sydney depends on the design you choose, your site conditions and your finishes. A flat, well-serviced block costs less to build on than one with slope or drainage challenges. Rather than quote blind, we inspect your property first and give you a clear, itemised price. Ask us how much does a granny flat cost for your specific block.

Start Building Your Dream Custom Granny Flat

Is a 2 Bedroom Granny Flat Right for My Block?

A 60 square metre two bedroom granny flat generally needs a block of at least 450 square metres with a 12 metre frontage, a 3 metre rear setback and 0.9 metre side setbacks. If your land is smaller or your needs are different, a 1 bedroom granny flat may suit better, while larger families may prefer a 3 bedroom granny flat. We help you weigh it up during a free site inspection.

Beyond the block measurements, we also look at slope, drainage, existing services and access for machinery, since these can shape both the design and the cost. It is the detail that is not obvious from the street that tends to matter most, and picking it up early is exactly what our free site inspection is for. Once we have walked your block, we can tell you with confidence whether a two bedroom granny flat is the right fit.

Frequently Asked Questions

View All FAQ's

What is the minimum block size for a 2 bedroom granny flat?

You generally need at least 450 square metres with a 12 metre frontage to build a 60 square metre two bedroom granny flat under complying development. We confirm this on site.

Do I need council approval?

Most 2 bedroom granny flats are approved through a Complying Development Certificate, which is faster than a full Development Application. We manage the approval for you either way.

What rental income can a 2 bedroom granny flat earn?

A two bedroom layout typically commands a higher rent than a studio or one bedroom because it appeals to small families and sharers. Rental returns vary by suburb, and we can advise on demand in your area.

How long does it take to build?

Most 2 bedroom granny flats are completed within 12 to 20 weeks after approval, helped by our 4-week approval guarantee.
