Backyard Grannys newest designer granny flat, The Newington, was designed with long and narrow backyards in mind. This granny flat design features a skillion roof with raked ceilings and highlight windows in the living area. These features alongside the large sliding doors and front deck create a sense of space that feels larger than 60m2.
This design has its two bedrooms located at opposite ends of the granny flat. This offers a unique level of privacy unlike many other of our granny flat designs. The second bedroom also has the option to add a sliding door to create its own entrance to the granny flat.
All our bedrooms are designed with built-in robes and the bathroom also provides a space to include the laundry.
ThisNewcastle granny flatis perfectly suited to a local property investor looking to create a rental home that adds value to their existing property. It is also a great option for anyone looking to house their elderly parents closer to home.
We recently built The Newington on the Central Coast. In this design, we made the most of the space available by designing an L-shaped kitchen and included a study nook and linen cupboard.Click here to read this case study.
