Minor Dwelling builders Auckland

 Whether it’s an investment move, a solution for a teenager needing their own space or a way to look after your parents or in-laws, building a minor dwelling is a win-win solution to a myriad of financial and living situations. Refresh Renovations North Shore can provide you with a design and build which perfectly suits your needs.

A minor dwelling is versatile and can be used for whatever you need. You could work from home in your office or studio, have a detached living space for adult children or older family members, or you could even rent it out.

The introduction of the Auckland Unitary Plan has made it easier to add a second dwelling to your property. In general, you can build a minor dwelling if you’re in the following zones:

  • Residential Single House Zone
  • Residential Large Lot Zone
  • Residential Rural and Coastal Settlement Zone

While each zone has slightly different regulations, the maximum size of a minor dwelling in all three zones is 65m2. Go to Auckland Council’s website to find out which zone you’re in and what you can do on your property.

Add property value

In Auckland’s property market, a minor dwelling is an attractive proposition for many buyers. It gives them the option of multi-generations sharing the cost of purchase or taking on tenants to help pay the mortgage.

Rent it out!

Earn extra income by listing your minor dwelling on Airbnb or renting it out to long-term tenants. If you have an investment property, you could earn two rental incomes by adding a second residence.

How much will my project cost?

Refresh designs and builds to your specifications and budget - working with you to create a result that is feasible, attractive, and practical. The final cost will depend on a range of factors including your ideas, your budget, council consent, materials, labor, site assessments, and service connections. All costs included, building a minor dwelling generally starts from around $200,000. Your minor dwelling specialist will be able to provide you with a cost estimate and fixed quote accurate to your specific requirements.

What are the benefits of including a second building on a property?

People choose to build minor dwellings for a variety of personal and financial reasons. Minor dwellings provide a straightforward solution for families who require more space and accommodation. They also serve as a cost-effective option for first-time homebuyers. There is a growing interest in small houses and minimalism, so some people may be drawn to the idea with this in mind. For many, the decision to build a second dwelling is an investment choice. They may choose to subdivide their property and rent out the second dwelling to enjoy a passive income.
