Centennial Park Granny Flat Construction — Fixed Price
A granny flat in Centennial Park is a premium, heritage-led build. On 300 to 800m² blocks worth $4M to $10M wrapping the parklands, the stock is grand Federation and Victorian mansions and sandstone semis — the larger freestanding lots clear the 450m² Housing SEPP threshold, so on those a guest studio or multigenerational space works.
Heritage is the dominant factor. Heritage Conservation Areas cover virtually all streets, so a secondary dwelling almost always goes through a full DA rather than the fast CDC path — and on the semi-detached and smaller mansion blocks, room can be genuinely tight, so the survey matters.
The ground is sandstone, so any build is engineered off a real geotech. Where a mansion is being altered, the older fabric can carry fibro, so a licensed asbestos strip-out leads where any demolition is involved.
We build to the standard the address demands, fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Heritage and survey scoped first.
Buildana manages the full granny flat process in Centennial Park — from site assessment and CDC fast-track approval through to fixed-price construction and handover. We build studio, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom designs up to the NSW maximum of 60m².

On those, a guest studio or multigenerational space works, built to sit with the address.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
Granny flats get underestimated. A lot of builders treat them as a kit-home product. We don't. Your Centennial Park block has a main dwelling, a driveway, service connections, trees, and neighbours — the secondary dwelling gets designed around those realities.
⏱The 60m² SEPP cap is not a suggestion. Every millimetre gets used — kitchen, bathroom, laundry, living, bedroom, storage — with the envelope tuned for Centennial Park's sun and prevailing breeze. Real rooms, not compromise spaces.
⏱CDC gets lodged through a private certifier the week design locks in. 10–15 business days later, slab starts. The trades sequence tight because the footprint is small — one plumber, one sparkie, one tiler, one programme.
⏱Handover gives you a genuinely rentable second home. Separate meter, independent hot water, standalone bathroom, full kitchen. Ready to lease on handover day, not a 'studio' that needs another $20K of finishing.
⏱Quality Promise
Centennial Park granny flat construction done to a schedule. CDC lodged, slab poured, handover complete — on one fixed-price contract.
