Secondary residence at Summerland Circuit

A two-bedroom granny flat that blends bright living space with 8-star energy efficiency

This granny flat transforms an underutilised back garden into a valuable asset. The secondary dwelling adds flexibility for the owner builder and provides the opportunity to generate rental income.

With a raked ceiling above the open-plan kitchen and living area, this compact two-bedroom home feels spacious and full of light. The simple L-shaped floor plan captures the winter sun while also creating a pleasant, north-facing private alfresco area.

Features include:

  • Open-plan lounge and kitchen with raked ceiling
  • Space-saving bathroom with integrated Euro laundry
  • 8-star energy efficiency
  • Covered car parking
