Granny flat plans in Redland 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 Redland 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.
Redland's secondary dwelling provisions are being updated through Major Amendment 02/25, with the interim Amenity and Aesthetics Policy (in force since February 2024) applying in the meantime. Proposed limits are around 85m² on lots under 1,000m², 112m² on larger lots, and up to 160m² in rural zones. We confirm the current position for your block before starting.
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. Redland City Council applies its own design and overlay requirements; we check suitability against the relevant planning scheme before any work begins, at no cost to you.

Common questions
Yes. A secondary dwelling needs a building approval. Redland's provisions are in transition under Major Amendment 02/25, so the approval pathway depends on the rules in force when you lodge. We confirm exactly what applies to your block at suitability review.
