Backyard Pods make the cheapest granny flats in Brisbane because kits cost much less than conventional structures. Kits are easily customised to suit your own needs and styling. From small studio-style backyard cabins to fully self-contained garden apartments, cool urban statements to quaint cottage-style designs, you can SAVE THOUSANDS using our flat-pack kits as your starting point. Not all fit-out services are available in all areas of Brisbane, and not all sites would be approved for a granny flat or secondary dwelling, but if you have a question about what you’d like to achieve – talk to us!

Understated outside, bright and stylish inside – this superb Brisbane granny flat reflects clever choices made by the owners. They wanted a self-contained cabin that wouldn’t detract from their main residence. The large, battleaxe block with steep, bushy slope and restricted access would challenge most types of construction. Step inside now and you’ll feel right at home.
This sleek Backyard Pod in Colorbond Monument 4m x 11m with eaves cost less than HALF what builders had quoted for a conventional home extension in Brisbane. The family now enjoys a huge multi-purpose living, media, and rumpus room with versatile facilities to allow for future use as a self-contained granny flat or extended family accommodation.
If you’re building a granny flat on sloping land using Backyard Pods, you don’t necessarily need to excavate. Our customer at Ocean View, a bushfire-prone district north of Brisbane in QLD, chose to elevate their granny flat on one side, using extra-long piers, rather than cutting into the natural hillside. It’s in Colorbond Ironstone with Surfmist and black accents.
Looking at the original view of this property in Oxenford, northwestern Gold Coast QLD, with its tight confines and drastic slope, it seemed impossible for anyone to build a granny flat there. Yet, with the help of our QLD network partners, you can see this sky-high elevated granny flat, based on a custom-sized Backyard Pods kit using special piers, successfully nearing completion.
Our customer wanted a prefab granny flat delivered complete and simply connected on-site. But not everyone who wants a prefab granny flat can get one to their site. That’s where our flatpack kit 3.6m x 9m with extra-long piers came in! The entire 1-bedroom granny flat project was completed to move-in-readiness through our Backyard Pods network.
The deluxe ‘Coolum’ design 2BR prefab granny flat or self-contained cabin 6m x 9m is pre-wired, pre-plumbed, cyclone-rated, and delivered complete anywhere in Queensland. This upgraded example shows how basic prefab granny flat designs can be customised.
This family needed a low-budget granny flat so an elderly mother could be cared for close to the family home, whilst still maintaining her independence and privacy. The budget was super-tight and the list of needs included a spacious bathroom with plenty of storage for linen and towels, a queen-sized bedroom with ample wardrobe space,…
When this couple decided to make it official and move in together they had a happy hurdle to overcome. Where to accommodate their blended family? Brisbane’s own ‘Brady Bunch’, three boys and three girls ranging in ages from seven to 16, had outgrown the four-bedroom 1950’s fibro-Queenslander home in suburban Aspley. Doubling-up in bunk beds…
A family in Brisbane needed a ‘tiny house’ for a grown-up daughter still happily living-at-home, yet there was no space available in the yard behind the house. Our challenge was to come up with a backyard pod design that would fit neatly into the property’s driveway-width side lawn area. After viewing the property via Google Satellite,…
