Granny Flats Ipswich

Elite Portables — 1300 310 480

If you’re looking at adding a self-contained second dwelling — for a parent, a teenager, or a tenant — this is the page for it. We build granny flats across Ipswich and the surrounding region, and you’re within the area we cover. If you’re after something smaller and more moveable, our tiny homes and portable buildings are worth a look instead.

Do we come to Ipswich? Yes — the building is manufactured at our facility and transported in, so what matters on site is access for the delivery rather than conditions for a build.

Granny Flats in Ipswich

You end up with a complete, self-contained home: bedroom or bedrooms, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a living space, wired and plumbed and ready to connect. Not a shell you finish yourself. It’s a Queensland-built structure, made to handle Queensland weather, and it arrives as a finished building rather than a months-long site job in your backyard.You can take a standard layout as it is, or change it — move a wall, add a second bedroom, change the kitchen. Tell us how the space will be used and who’s living in it, and we’ll tell you honestly what that means for the build.

How it works

You start with a conversation about what you need and where it’s going. We’ll talk through size, layout and how the building gets onto your block.From there you get a quote against a specific design. Once you’re happy with it, we lock the plan and the build starts in our yard, so your property stays yours while it’s happening.When it’s built, it’s delivered and set down on your prepared site. Final connections — power, water, waste — get made, and you do a walkthrough before it’s handed over. You’ll know what’s included at each stage before you commit to any of it.

What it costs

We quote per build, because the price moves with real things rather than a sticker number. Size is the biggest one: a one-bedroom flat and a two-bedroom flat are different builds, not the same build stretched. After that it’s fitout — what goes in the kitchen and bathroom, flooring, what the finishes are.Then there’s your site. Access for delivery, how level the ground is, and how far the building sits from existing services all affect what it takes to get it in and connected. Send us photos of the spot early and we can flag anything that would add cost before you’re committed to a design.We’d rather give you a number you can rely on than a low one you can’t.

Getting started

Tell us the block it’s going on and who’ll be living in it. A rough idea of size, a photo or two of the site, and how you plan to get access is enough to start.From that we can talk through layouts and put a quote in front of you. Call or send through an enquiry and we’ll go from there.

Common questions

Is a granny flat a full home, or just a room?

A full one. It’s self-contained — bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and living space, wired and plumbed, ready to connect to services.

Do you build it on my property or somewhere else?

In our yard. It’s built as a complete building and then delivered and set down on your prepared site, so you’re not living beside a construction job for months.

Can I change the layout?

Yes. You can take a standard design or adjust it — move a wall, add a bedroom, change the kitchen. Tell us how the space will be used and we’ll tell you what those changes mean for the build.

What affects the price most?

Size first, then fitout, then your site — delivery access, how level the ground is, and the distance to existing services. We quote against a specific design rather than quoting a flat figure.
