A granny flat in Rodd Point is shaped by heritage. This small riverside enclave on Iron Cove between Russell Lea and Drummoyne is Federation cottages and inter-war heritage on 400 to 700m² blocks, with Heritage Conservation Areas covering most streets — so a secondary dwelling here usually goes through a full DA rather than the fast CDC path, and that's the honest starting point.
The larger lots clear the 450m² Housing SEPP threshold and, with a heritage-respectful design, can take a studio or guest space near the Iron Cove foreshore. On the tighter or more tightly controlled blocks it can be marginal, so I scope the heritage and survey together up front.
The soil is Wianamatta Shale grading M to H, so a stiffened-raft slab is engineered off a real geotech on the reactive ground. The older stock can carry fibro, so a licensed asbestos strip-out leads where any demolition is involved.
We build fixed-price, licence HBL 487805C. Heritage, survey and soil scoped first.
Buildana manages the full granny flat process in Rodd Point — 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.

Heritage-led enclave
Rodd Point is Federation cottages and heritage on 400 to 700m² blocks with heritage over most streets, so a secondary dwelling usually goes through a full DA.
That's the honest starting point — I scope the heritage and survey together up front.
Where it works
The larger lots clear the 450m² Housing SEPP threshold and, with a heritage-respectful design, can take a studio near the Iron Cove foreshore.
The Wianamatta Shale grading M to H means a stiffened-raft slab engineered off a geotech, and older stock can carry fibro.

How It Works
From First Call to Final Key
Everything that has to be right before we touch the ground. Most Rodd Point blocks support a granny flat — the question is where it sits, how it accesses the street, and how it shares the yard with the main house. We work that out on site, with the existing house and existing services in front of us. 1-bed or 2-bed floor plan designed for your Rodd Point block — up to the NSW maximum of 60m². Layout, window placement, kitchen and bathroom positioning optimised for liveability and rental appeal.
⏱The Rodd Point construction phase. Fixed price, programmed, supervised. We lodge your CDC application with all required documentation — BASIX, plans, site analysis, stormwater. Private certifier approval in 10–15 business days. CC issued and you're ready to build. 12-week typical timeline for a 60m² 2-bed: slab pour week 1, frame stand weeks 2–3, lock-up week 5, internal fit-out weeks 6–10, finishes and external works weeks 11–12. We provide the dated programme upfront so you can plan move-in or tenant placement.
⏱The job isn't done when the site's clean; it's done when you have keys, certificates and warranties. OC issued, defect-free inspection completed, keys handed over. Your granny flat is ready to occupy or lease. Well-finished 2-bed units near Drummoyne ferry (1 km) are achieving $550–$850/week per week.
