Granny Flats & Secondary Dwellings
Flexible living for family, guests, or rental income — built with the same CMA standards as our full homes.
Get in TouchSecondary dwellings by CMA
Yes — CMA builds granny flats and standalone secondary dwellings. They support multi-generational living, home offices, or a compliant rental stream subject to council approval and site suitability on your Queensland lot.
Every block is different. We assess zoning, setbacks, services, access, and overlay constraints before quoting so you understand feasibility early — then align design with our main website plan ranges or Custom by CMA.
Secondary dwellings are often paired with investment strategies — see Investment homes and Townhouses on our site for broader dual-income context. Full inclusions and build process details are on homesbycma.com.au.
Why choose CMA for a granny flat

Standalone builds

Council-first approach
Approval pathways vary by Moreton Bay, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, and other LGAs — we factor feasibility into planning.
