The current plan is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom dwelling. The separate bedroom is retained throughout the catalogue, floor plan and enquiry form; the compact size does not turn it into an open sleeping studio.
Use the actual drawing below to assess the kitchen, bathroom and living arrangement. Its 34.3 m² drawing area is shown separately from the nominal 34 m² product category.
Published build prices are available for Victoria, Queensland, New South Wales and Western Australia. The written project scope confirms site works, approvals, services and the agreed specification.

Victoria · VC306
Since Amendment VC306 (15 October 2026) Victoria’s small second dwelling may have up to 80 m² total floor area, measured to the outside of the external walls; the Building Regulations still define it as 60 m² or less. The 34.3 m² drawing sits within both, so it can be built without a planning permit where the zone conditions are met — in the General Residential Zone, a lot of 300 m² or more, one existing dwelling, no other small second dwelling and no reticulated gas — and no overlay or title restriction applies. A building permit is always required.
The NSW Home 60 price is $203,500 inc GST. Use the supplied two-bedroom drawing and a site-scope matrix to establish what your building proposal actually covers.
Unit is a listing label, not a consistent building type. Separate apartments, villas, townhouses and single-storey homes before using a sale to inform a compact-dwelling design brief.
A fixed headline can cover very different work. Put every responsibility beside its document, drawing version and allowance basis before treating two proposals as comparable prices.
A module that fits on a site plan still needs a transport route and a controlled lift. Bring the transport operator, lifting contractor and site builder into the same evidence brief.
Which layouts are provided?
A separate bedroom, a full bathroom and an open kitchen and living space in a compact home. The current Fernwood drawing measures 34.3 m², with a 2.4 m ceiling. It is the one-bedroom option in our 34 m² product category.
Does the displayed price include GST?
Yes. Every published product price on this page includes GST. Choose the building state to see the current offer; the written project scope confirms the site-specific items and agreed inclusions.
How do I confirm the specification for my site?
Send the address and preferred layout. The project review establishes site fit, the approval pathway, engineering, access and the written scope before a construction proposal is agreed.
Can it be built without a planning permit in Victoria?
It can, where the site qualifies. Under Amendment VC306 a small second dwelling of up to 80 m², measured to the outside of the external walls, needs no planning permit in the General Residential Zone on a lot of 300 m² or more with one existing dwelling, no other small second dwelling and no gas, unless an overlay or title restriction applies. A building permit is always required.
