A granny flat isn’t just a handy way to add extra space — it can also be a smart investment or a functional place to work from home. Around Mudgee and the surrounding areas, we’re seeing more and more homeowners turning their spare space into something that works harder for them.
Many use their granny flat to generate extra income — whether that’s renting it out long-term, setting it up for Airbnb-style short stays, or leasing it to family. It’s a great way to bring in regular cashflow without buying a separate property, and with strong demand for rentals across the Central West, it can be a solid return on investment.
Others choose to use their granny flat as a home office, studio, or workspace. Whether you’re running a small business, seeing clients, or just need somewhere quiet to get things done, a separate space away from the main house can make a big difference to your day-to-day routine. It’s private, comfortable, and gives you room to focus — all without the commute.
Whatever you’ve got in mind — investment, work, or multi-generational living — we’ll help you design a space that fits your needs and ticks all the boxes with council. From approvals to construction, we handle the lot, making the process as straightforward as possible.
