Why a Granny Flat Above a Garage?
So if you’re considering a granny flat above a garage it is probably because your site is fairly constrained. Maybe there’s not enough room to do it in the backyard. Or maybe you can’t do it in your basement because of the way your house is built. But you’ve thought, hang on a second, maybe I could do it above my garage. And it’s certainly an opportunity but each Council is different.

And so what is really, really important is that before you go further, before you start spending money on plans, to be able to do what we call a Preliminary Planning Assessment.
