Why Build a Granny Flat in Tasmania?

Granny flats — often called ancillary dwellings or ancillary flats in Tasmania — offer an ideal solution for:

  • Supporting ageing parents or adult children

  • Multi-generational living without compromising privacy

  • Guest accommodation or home offices

  • Rental income (in many areas, rules permit renting to anyone)

  • Boosting your property’s value and versatility

As land becomes more scarce and expensive, especially in urban areas like Hobart and Launceston, building a granny flat is a cost-effective way to optimise the space you already own.

Granny Flat Rules & Council Requirements in Tasmania

In Tasmania, building regulations and planning policies differ between local councils, and there is no single statewide policy. However, there are general guidelines that most councils follow — including Hobart City Council and others.

Here are some of the key points to consider:

  • You are typically allowed one main residence and one ancillary dwelling per block

  • The granny flat must be no larger than 30% of the total floor area of the main residence

  • Granny flats can generally be rented to anyone, not just family members

  • There may be no strict minimum block size, but lot coverage and setback rules still apply

  • Planning, building, and plumbing permits may all be required

  • It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure permits are in place before starting any work

  • Substantial penalties apply for building without permits

Important: Always seek confirmation from your local council or a licensed building surveyor before starting any work. Written advice is recommended if you believe a permit is not required.

Each Tasmanian council may interpret the regulations slightly differently — especially in rural zones — so it’s essential to confirm your design aligns with the local planning scheme.

Customisable Kit Granny Flats for Every Tasmanian Property

At Prestige Kit Homes, we offer a wide range of granny flat designs suitable for urban blocks, regional properties, and everything in between. Our kits are designed for easy construction and full customisation, and we work closely with you to ensure your granny flat is compliant with Tasmanian regulations.

What’s included in our kits:

  • Steel or timber frames

  • Lock-up, lining, and final stage materials

  • Optional upgrades: verandahs, decking, high ceilings, insulation

  • Standard and custom layouts to suit your block and lifestyle

  • Kits delivered statewide

All designs can be modified to accommodate local site conditions, bushfire ratings (BAL), energy efficiency standards, or accessibility needs.
