Middle Dural is deep acreage — 2 to 10 hectare-plus holdings in the sandstone country, orchard heritage, equestrian and semi-rural lifestyle blocks. A granny flat here is a rural second dwelling, and the constraints are the rural ones: approval path, bushfire, and off-grid servicing, never a shortage of room.
On RU2 rural land the secondary dwelling generally goes down the DA route. On land this size that's no burden — you place it wherever suits, with as much separation from the main house as you want.
The ground is Hawkesbury Sandstone, so footings are designed off a geotech with rock a real possibility. Most of Middle Dural is bushfire-prone, so the build meets the RFS requirements for its BAL rating, and with no sewer out here the flat runs on on-site wastewater.
Fixed price with the DA, bushfire and servicing all sorted first. Licence HBL 487805C.

Room to place it right
On a multi-hectare Middle Dural holding, siting a second dwelling is about choice, not compromise — near the main house for family, or set well apart for real independence. The DA on RU2 land is the process cost; the space is the payoff.
These builds tend to be substantial, proper independent accommodation that suits a rural property rather than a small suburban flat. The land invites doing it properly.
Sandstone and off-grid services
The Hawkesbury Sandstone means footings are designed off a geotech and rock excavation can be part of the job — priced in from the report so the fixed number holds.
With the suburb bushfire-prone and off sewer, the dwelling meets the RFS requirements for its BAL rating and runs on tank water and on-site wastewater sized for the load. I work all of that out before I quote.
