Hi guys, need some opinions on my future plans on knocking down my investment and build my home.
Land size is about 960m2 and frontage of 13.6m.
Situation is that: dual occupancy 2 small families is a must.
Which one would have more value
Plan a) My plans are to knockdown and to build a 2 storey house at the front and also fit a granny flat at the back, however funding may mean the granny flat will be built years after.
Plan b) Build a large enough 2 storey home at the front that could be split as dual occupancy.
My questions with the build of the granny flat are:
1. Is this option viable as after the front premies is built (2 storey with double garage) there will be restricted building access to get to the rear when the time comes to build the granny flat or can they work around this? or have a common driveway accessing the back and have the garage situated there.
2. Ive been looking at some granny flat designs and they look a bit dull. Are there recommendations on who can assist in building one that looks modern like a second mini home rather than just a box with windows and doors?
Im only doing this once so i want to get this done right the first time.
Any feedback is appreciated
