St Ives Granny Flats Built Around Your Property
St Ives features predominantly established homes built from the 1960s through to the 1990s, set on generous blocks typically ranging from 700 to 1200 square metres. These spacious properties with substantial backyards are ideal for granny flat construction, offering ample side access and room for secondary dwellings. The area’s established gardens and level to gently sloping blocks make construction straightforward.
We build granny flats throughout St Ives, Turramurra, Wahroonga, Hornsby, Pymble and Gordon, bringing extensive knowledge of Ku-ring-gai Council requirements to every project. Our designs are tailored to suit the Upper North Shore’s larger blocks, maximising natural light and blending with the area’s leafy character. From compact studios to spacious two bedroom flats, we deliver quality secondary dwellings for established properties.
St Ives enjoys strong property values driven by excellent schools, bushland surrounds and proximity to the city. Rental demand remains consistently high, with quality one bedroom granny flats achieving around $550 per week and two bedroom units commanding $650 plus. Building a granny flat now capitalises on this robust rental market while adding significant property value.
