Granny flat plans in Moreton Bay
A granny flat, known in the planning system as a secondary dwelling, is a self contained second home on the same lot as your main house. It is one of the most effective ways to add rental income or house family in Moreton Bay. Plan Draft provides fixed price granny flat drawings for homeowners on standard residential lots.
We produce the full documentation set your building certifier needs, site plan, floor plan, elevations, roof plan, cross section and specification notes. Both attached and detached secondary dwellings are within the standard fixed price scope.
City of Moreton Bay tightened its rules in late 2024. In the General Residential zone a secondary dwelling is limited to 45m² on lots up to 800m², or 55m² on larger lots, and must sit within 10 metres of the main dwelling. Rural and rural residential zones allow up to 100m².
Since September 2022, a secondary dwelling in Queensland can be rented to anyone, it no longer has to be lived in by a member of the household. City of Moreton Bay applies its own design and overlay requirements; we check suitability against the relevant planning scheme before any work begins, at no cost to you.
