This Brunswick garden studio serves dual purpose — a self-contained 1-bedroom granny flat for family accommodation and a dedicated home office for remote work. The 35sqm footprint maximises the rear yard space while meeting Moreland Council’s setback requirements.

Inner North Melbourne Builds
Brunswick, Coburg, Preston, and Northcote properties typically have rear lane access and established gardens. Our steel frame pods work well in these constraints — no crane required, minimal vehicle access needed, and AllFoot foundations avoid excavation that could damage mature trees.
