Small homes developers now in fast growth mode
LOS ANGELES: The Granny flat, laneway housing, and accessory dwelling markets are a goldmine for cabin and modular housing providers.
When husband and wife Gerard and Lisa Nisbet set about finding a cabin for their caravan site, their search came up short.
“We weren’t able to find anything that was of the quality we wanted for the money we had to pay” Gerard explains.
“It was just really basic slapped-together, cookie-cutter-type production-line stuff.”
Thier cabins are truly relocatable unlike most granny flats which claim to be (but the process is never worth the hassle). They are built with a fully engineered super steel structure, with lifting points on the roof that can be craned over the top of houses or other obstacles if need be.
Unlike a traditional tiny house, these relocatable homes can also be classified as a Class 1 dwelling, meaning if they are used as a main residence, they will increase in value over time.
With a background as home builders, they knew that they could take all of our knowledge and apply it to something smaller, while still keeping the same high-quality materials and finishes that they always prioritise when building homes.
Ironbark can also fully customise each build, making each cabin truly unique to their new owners.
As a small family business, Lisa and Gerard love going above and beyond for their customers to ensure their experience buying a small home is second to none.
Iron bark Cabins, based in Yellingbo in Victoria’s Yarra Valley, delivers interstate, including to Tasmania.
