Secondary Dwelling | Kew, Melbourne, VIC | Project Status: Building Permit Phase

Nestled in Kew, Melbourne, the Walpole Granny Flat exemplifies innovative small-scale living, designed within a compact 60m² footprint and hence exempt from a planning permit in Victoria. This striking double-storey dwelling features two comfortable bedrooms and a shared bathroom upstairs, complemented by an open-plan kitchen, living, and dining space below. The bold corrugated metal façade creates a modern aesthetic, while the design optimises functionality and natural light. Tailored for a home-owner build, this project is a perfect solution for families seeking versatile, sustainable, and cost-efficient secondary dwellings.
