Custom Sleepouts & Minor Dwellings
A sleepout (30 square metres) is a great way to add an extra multi-purpose rooms, bedroom and study, rumpus room for kids and sleepovers, guest house, or office to work from home, storage.
A Minor Dwelling (65 square metres) adds an extra bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and running water above a sleepout and can be built up to 65m2.
Building a stand alone sleepout or Minor Dwelling is less disruptive than altering your existing home and cheaper overall.
A Sleepout or Minor Dwelling will increase the sale price of your property and will add flexibility to your lifestyle even if you use one of the rooms as storage. You can separately metre your Minor Dwelling for a secondary income.
