Added to an existing block, Maitland Granny Flat includes 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom with a total living space of 60m2. This freestanding granny flat was constructed with a complete weatherproof membrane by Pro Clima paired with external cavity battens for ventilation and high-performing double-glazed UPVC windows and doors for added soundproofing and insulation properties. As the flat is raised off the ground, we ensured every nook, including the floor, was insulated. Insulating the floor is an important detail to consider when designing a high-performing and cosy home. The interior features a spacious open plan design with a butterfly-style roof, unique tilt and turn windows to open up the space, and custom birch ply skylight windows to allow stunning views of nature and plenty of natural light. The modern timber kitchen was designed by Co. Interiors. The exterior features exposed white rafters paired with natural cypress cladding to create a distinct and sophisticated look. While the entertaining deck overlooks a beautifully grassed and landscaped outdoor area. Photography: Ben Sutton

Professional Reviews

“Lou Projects is a pleasure to do a building project with. In an age where a lot of building work is slapdash and performed to the lowest possible standard, their work is high quality and professional. All the employees are friendly and helpful, very responsive and pay a lot of attention to detail, delivering a very high-quality result. Our renovation was a large one, taking almost a year to complete and we did not have a single problem with this company or any of the tradespeople who worked with them. I would use them again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them.”
