All the features of construction in Australia

Premier homes and granny flats are usually built as full-fledged housing, but in a compact format and with an increased level of comfort. First, the architect develops a project that takes into account all the indentations from the boundaries of the site, access to communications and features of the relief. Then they receive permits - in many countries, in particular in Australia, there are special rules for such small secondary buildings that limit the area and height. Construction begins with a foundation, usually made of slab or strip with good waterproofing, then a frame is erected from steel or high-quality wood. In the premium segment, attention is paid to thermal insulation and energy efficiency, solar panels, inverter heating and cooling systems, modern ventilation are often installed.

Inside, the layout is thought out so that a small space has its own bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and living room, and the materials are chosen high-class - stone or quartz for countertops, natural wood for the floor, designer plumbing. The exterior is done in a style that matches the main house: brick, wooden slats, panoramic windows, terraces and green courtyards, which add a sense of privacy. Often, such apartments have a separate entrance and their own path, and sometimes a separate parking space. Thanks to this, residents have a sense of independence, and the owners have a high-quality and durable object that can be used for relatives or rented out.
