Turning a shed into a granny flat

Turning a shed into a granny flat

Hi everyone

We are in the process of buying a property which has this large shed at the end of the garden.  The block is a fair size at 1200sqm so ideally we would like to convert this into a type fo granny flat - the shed is 9m x 4.5m - really for our son to use more of as he gets older and for somewhere for friends to stay.

 

I was thinking of double doors to replace the roller doors and a large window where the smaller window is, relacing the roof with colourbond and then painting it a light grey with white trim and maybe adding a deck to the front.  

 

Does anyone have any advice on the process and planning?

 

Thanks

Hi @Angelina,

 

Hope you are staying safe and well.

 

As this has been a very popular discussion on Workshop, we were wondering if you could kindly provide an update for the community? Did you proceed with the project?

 

We trust all is well and that members can continue to provide you with plenty of helpful advice and inspiration for this project and many more to come. Just let us know if you need anything. 

 

Thanks,
