Latest Courier Mail Editorial

Our latest Courier Mail Editorial focusses on the Olson family and their new granny flat – designed and  built by our Lifestyle Granny Flats division.

Extended Family Care

When the Olsons decided to move in with their daughter’s family, a solution to the lack of space needed to be found.  A Granny Flat was the perfect answer, allowing the Olsons to remain close to their family while retaining their independence and respecting the privacy of both families.  They had seen the quality of work by Total Lifestyle Builders in neighborhood extensions and after some research contacted Lifestyle to begin planning their new Granny Flat.

Guiding the Olsons through every step of the process, Lifestyle Granny Flats’ architect-led design and construction team made sure that every aspect was organised and completed to the highest standard.  Peace of mind was very important to the Olsons, but luckily, from initial designs, 3D walkthroughs of the proposed granny flat, council approvals and documentation through to final construction, the team at Lifestyle Granny Flats ensured that the Olsons had complete control over the build, right down to an all-encompassing fixed-price contract.

The resultant brick veneer granny flat extension to the family house has given Mr & Mrs Olson a modern, stylish home.  The design by Lifestyle Granny Flats provides the best of both worlds – they keep their privacy while having the security of being close to their family, as Mr Olsen explains,   “…we are now able to spend our remaining life knowing we are comfortable being close to our daughter and two grandchildren, and they will be here to help and support us during our senior years.”
