Granny Flats Designed for Leppington Blocks
Leppington is a growth suburb, and that changes the granny flat conversation. The new land releases here produce compact 300 to 500m² lots, and a good number of them sit below the 450m² Housing SEPP threshold for a 60m² secondary dwelling. So the honest first step is the survey — some blocks qualify comfortably, others don't, and it comes down to your specific lot.
Where a lot does clear 450m², the upside is real: Leppington has its own new train station and strong tenant demand, so a rear dwelling lets quickly. Where it doesn't, I'll tell you straight rather than push a build that won't get the CDC tick.
The ground is highly reactive clay, so on the lots that qualify the slab is a stiffened raft engineered off a real geotech. The stock is new-build, so fibro isn't a factor.
We build fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. In Leppington, get the survey and feasibility done first — this is a suburb where lot size genuinely decides it.
Buildana manages the full granny flat process in Leppington — 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.

Lot size decides it
Leppington's new-release lots run 300 to 500m², and a good number sit below the 450m² Housing SEPP threshold. Some blocks clear it comfortably, others don't — the survey is the honest first step.
Where a lot qualifies, the new train station and strong tenant demand make a rear dwelling let quickly. Where it doesn't, I'll say so rather than push a build that won't pass CDC.
New stock, reactive clay
The new-build stock means fibro isn't a factor, which keeps the site work clean.
The highly reactive clay means the slab is a stiffened raft engineered off a real geotech on the lots that qualify.

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 Leppington 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 Leppington'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.
