Bringing a family together: a new granny flat in Sunshine NSW
At Acrow Investments, we love it when a plan comes together, so we’re thrilled to announce the success of one of our latest projects: a sun-filled granny flat in the suburb of Sunshine. How is that for an appropriate name? Even better is the broader setting of Lake Macquarie, one of NSW’s most promising lifestyle and real estate investment centres.
What purpose? Bringing a family closer together.
Here’s an overview of the project.
- Project description: A granny flat in Sunshine to bring an extended family together.
- Result: A light and airy living quarters that easily matches the standard of the main house.
- Project cost: $155,000.00 including CDC approval and construction fees.
- Build duration: 15 weeks.
- Return on investment: Forging closer connections with family members, as well as a considerable increase in the property’s overall value.
The location
Sunshine certainly lives up to its name! A hidden gem just an hour south of Newcastle, the area is just minutes from the Trinity Point Marina and offers some wonderful water views.
Popular with established families and retirees, the area is simply a gorgeous natural setting. If you’re wanting to get back to nature, you can’t go past Sunshine: a place known as much for its greenery as for the neighbourly spirit among the 450-odd residents.
The project
Built for our client’s extended family, the granny flat’s design is perfect for low-maintenance living and hosting those drop-in visitors from across the backyard … young or old! The bright, spacious open-plan living and kitchen area flows seamlessly into two functional bedrooms, prioritising family space and a modern look and feel.
Timber laminate flooring, stone benchtops, poly kitchen cabinetry and split-system reverse-cycle air-conditioning complete the project. It all goes towards ensuring our client’s family is kept comfortable.
The numbers
The project itself costed out to $155,000.00 including CDC approval and construction fees. Built in just 15 weeks, the client was able to bring in the family in next to no time.
