Common first questions.

Which granny flat do you offer?

Woodland Living offers five solid timber granny flat designs: the Hahndorf (39 sqm, 1 bedroom), the Stanthorpe (54.2 sqm, 2 bedrooms), the Great Ocean Road (68.1 sqm, 3 bedrooms), the Apollo Bay (80 sqm, 2 bedrooms plus a study nook) and the Soul (80 sqm, 2 bedrooms). Compare them on our granny flats page.

Do you review project location?

Yes. Project location or postcode is one of the first details we ask for so the discussion has the right context.

Why do you ask for a budget?

An estimated budget helps keep model, specification and project conversations realistic from the start.

Why does timeframe matter?

Knowing when you hope to start helps the team discuss a practical sequence and next step.

Do you also offer tiny homes?

Yes. Tiny homes are a secondary Woodland Living product range alongside the main granny-flat offer.

Do you offer saunas?

Yes. Timber saunas are a secondary product range and can be discussed through the same project enquiry process.

Building with Woodland Living

Are you a licensed builder?

Yes. Woodland Living is a QBCC licensed building company.

What does turnkey mean?

We take care of the project from start to finish, from approvals through construction, and at the end you receive the keys to a ready-built home. Each design combines a European solid timber system with construction by Australian builders. See how it works.

What do granny flats cost in Melbourne?

Our granny flat prices start from $200,000 for the Hahndorf, $229,000 for the Stanthorpe, $245,000 for the Great Ocean Road and $280,000 for the Apollo Bay and the Soul. The final price is confirmed after a site assessment, because access, services and approvals differ from site to site.

Is a granny flat suitable for elderly parents or adult children?

Yes. Our granny flats are independent homes with their own kitchen and bathroom, so they suit multigenerational living: ageing parents close to family, adult children who want their own space, or guests. The Stanthorpe is designed to Liveable Design Standards and includes an entry ramp.

Can a granny flat be used as a rental?

Some owners plan a granny flat as a rental-style secondary dwelling. Whether that suits your property depends on local planning rules and your site, so we talk it through during the site assessment.

Where do you build?

We work Australia-wide, with our main focus on Melbourne and Victoria.

What are your hours?

Monday to Friday, 8:00 to 17:00. Call 0432 418 796 or request a site assessment online.
