Granny flats are fast becoming a more and more popular feature in homes across Australia, particularly in growing urban areas like Sydney.
Sparked by the trend towards children living at home longer to save for their own house deposit, a greater proportion of migrant families with multigenerational households, and an ageing baby boomer population, NSW in particular has experienced a huge rise in granny flats, with a 260% increase over 5 years to June 2014.*
