About Our Small Granny Flats

Our small granny flats are constructed using the ancient Finnish method of log cabin construction; the basis of which is the system of interlocking walls.

Designed for its strength, we use 34mm T&G boards for the walls and 19mm x 95mm T&G ceiling boards. No internal lining is required. We apply R3 Anticon for the roof insulation and roof beams are 135mm x 34mm T&G.

All our roofs and gutters are Colorbond and we offer a comprehensive range of colours. All our cabins come standard with double French doors, 2 double windows and additional doors and windows are available if required.

The floor is YELLOW or GREEN tongue so no matter what your choice of finish (carpet, cork, tile, floating floor etc) this gives you the perfect base.
Our log cabins are made from Nordic timber. Nordic timber maintains a high indoor air quality, so they’re suitable even if you struggle with allergies. All our products come from FSC Certified Forests.

Our affordable granny flat designs ensure versatility and adaptability to any terrain, with the timber creating an appealing and inviting space.

All of our products can be built to different levels of certification depending on your requirements. For example, one of our biggest sellers, the 5×5 Moreton cabin, can be built as a Class 10 Domestic Shed or a Class 1 Habitable Building.

When upgrading to a Class 1 Habitable cabin, the main additions are studding out or framing out internally, adding insulation, recladding the walls and adding the electrical package (including a compulsory Smoke Alarm). All our prices are based on 100km from Brisbane GPO (not including Bay Islands).

  • I Understand these Styles of Small Granny Flats are “Exempt” from Council Approval, is This True?

    No, if you’re wanting to use your cabin as a home office, extra bedroom, pool house etc. it will need to be certified. It won’t be exempt.

  • Can You Assist with Council Approvals?

    Yes, our team of granny flat builders (and other team members) can manage all your council approvals.

  • Can Your Custom Granny Flats Be Lived In?

    If you choose our Class 1 option they are all habitable. Class 10 options are domestic sheds and should only be used for that purpose.
