Paddington Granny Flats Built Around Your Property
Paddington features predominantly Victorian and Edwardian terraces built between the 1880s and 1920s, with many homes on compact blocks typically ranging from 150 to 250 square metres. These established properties often have long, narrow rear yards that are ideal for carefully designed granny flats. The character streetscapes and heritage overlays require thoughtful design that complements existing architecture while maximising available space.
We service Paddington and surrounding Inner West suburbs including Leichhardt, Newtown, Marrickville, Petersham and Stanmore with tailored granny flat solutions. Our team has extensive experience navigating Inner West Council requirements and heritage considerations specific to this area. We design studio, one bedroom and two bedroom granny flats perfectly suited to the narrow lots and heritage character typical of Paddington properties.
The Paddington property market remains highly sought after, with strong rental demand driven by proximity to the CBD, universities and vibrant dining precincts. Granny flats in Paddington can achieve weekly rents of $550 to $750 depending on size and finishes.
