Dual Occupancy Homes: Double the Value, Double the Opportunity
Smart Design for Smart Living—or Smart Investing.
Whether you call it a Duplex, Dual Living, or a Granny Flat setup, a Dual Occupancy Home means two residences on one block of land.
At JS Construction, we see this as the ultimate way to maximize your land’s potential. We design and build high-quality, fully independent dwellings that are compliant, profitable, and private.
Why Build a Dual Occupancy Home with JS Construction?
A Dual Occupancy build is complex because it involves both custom construction and navigating local council regulations. We make it easy and rewarding.
Option 1: The Smart Investor
Double Income: Generate two rental incomes from a single investment property. This can significantly boost your overall cash flow and return.
Maximize Land Value: Efficiently use every square foot of your property to increase its value in established, high-demand areas.
Future Flexibility: We can design the property to allow for future subdivision (if permitted), giving you the option to sell the dwellings separately later on.
Option 2: The Multi-Generational Family
Stay Close, Live Separate: Give elderly parents, adult children, or long-term guests their own independent space—complete with a separate kitchen, living room, and entrance—while remaining right next door.
Shared Costs, Shared Life: Enjoy the security and emotional benefits of having family close by, but maintain the privacy that keeps everyone happy.
Our Dual Occupancy Process
We navigate the regulations, so you don’t have to worry about the paperwork.
Feasibility Check: We assess your land’s size, zoning, and local council rules to ensure your dual occupancy project is viable from day one.
Custom Design: We work with you to choose a layout (side-by-side or front/back) that maximizes natural light, privacy, and curb appeal for both units.
Approvals Management: We handle all the necessary building and planning permits, taking the headache out of the complex approval process.
Expert Build: Our experienced team builds both homes concurrently, focusing on soundproofing and quality materials to ensure a premium, durable result for both residents.
