Share the location

Provide the project location or postcode so site and delivery context can be considered.

03

Set budget and timing

An estimated budget and desired timeframe help keep the next conversation practical.

04

Review the site and fit

We discuss access, intended use and the design or model that best matches the project.

05

Confirm the path forward

Once the scope is clear, the project can move into detailed planning, build and delivery steps.

Turnkey: what we handle

Woodland Living is a QBCC licensed building company. Our granny flats combine a European solid timber system with construction by Australian builders, delivered as a turnkey build. Using the Stanthorpe as an example, the build includes:

  • Approvals: building and plumbing approval with Council and certifiers, a full set of plans, soil test, foundation engineering, inspections and lodgements.

  • Structure: solid timber walls, Colorbond roof with insulation, and a foundation on concrete piers with steel posts.

  • Utility connections: connection to your existing power, sewer, fresh water and telecommunications, with a budget allocation of 20m of trenching.

  • Kitchen and bathroom: cabinetry, cooktop, oven and sink; walk-in shower, vanity, laundry and waterproofing to NCC.

Inclusions vary by design. Read more in our guides: how a granny flat build comes together and the granny flat site assessment checklist, or see the FAQ.
