Granny flat out the back garden - What Cost??

Danye

Hi all, I'm looking for help and advice.

I'm looking for a rough estimate for the complete build of a granny flat 15ft x 10ft.

How much would one expect to pay?

Thanks.

My folks paid 13 k for a 10 x 15 anix flat if that helps

Agranny flat is basically an extension to a house, so you have all the costs os meeting the Buildin Regulations associated with that.

you have the cost of the 15x10 structure and then you have to allow for the cost of the link building to the existing house, or is it tied to the existing house?

Ballpark budget = €15,000 (plus depening on finishes)

This would exclude planning and professional fees if required.

Have a look at websites for steel sheds some of them build fully insulated garden rooms finished inside with power points.
And you can get any finish you want on the outside.

I was looking at sheds a few weeks ago and -snip- but there are others it may give you another option.

The thing about garden rooms is, they are exempt from the building regulations as they are classed as domestic sheds. A granny flat is not exempt and thus you have higher requirements with regards to sub structure build up, insulation levels and various other requirements.

Thanks all for your input.
