Completed Central Coast Granny Flat Ourimbah
For her Ourimbah property on the Central Coast, Samantha Pennington chose our contemporary two-bedroom design, The Dock.
Constructed on a steel frame and truss system with a slab on ground (SOG) foundation, the granny flat was delivered through a Development Application (DA) process, which added time due to council delays. Once approved we completed the granny flat within 12 weeks. Built in a BAL 29 bushfire zone, the project followed our standard specifications, with Samantha opting to keep all selections as included – another testament to the value that Acrow Granny Flats offer.
The Dock offers a practical two-bedroom layout with built-in wardrobes, a combined bathroom and laundry, and an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area that makes the most of its 60m² footprint.
The build was managed by Sales Manager Duke Brown and Project Manager Dario Villar, who oversaw the project through approval and construction. Samantha lived in the main home during the build and enjoyed watching the granny flat take shape in her backyard.
Acrow Ourimbah Granny Flat Review
Samantha later shared her experience in a glowing five-star Google review, praising Acrow’s patience through the long approval and loan process, and the efficient build once construction began:
I’ve been dealing with Acrow for almost 2 years and they have been great. The DA approval took 7 months due to delays with council. There were then delays on my side getting the loan approved. Acrow were very patient through the whole process. Once they got the all clear the build was done in 3 months. I was very happy with the end result and the service provided by Acrow. I’d recommend them to anyone wanting to build a granny flat!

With property prices on the rise, there is a boom in popularity when it comes to granny flats. Having an extra detached space can ease the pressure by:
- Great alternatives to retirement homes for elderly parents.
- Great investment potential for renting out to tenants.
- Extra space for keeping large families together.
- Adding value to your property to boost capital gains.
We are delighted with the result of our latest project – a granny flat to provide more accommodation for our client.
In this case the client built a granny flat for her daughter who wanted to move away from Sydney and start fresh on the Central Coast.
Our clients chose The Prime Plus design

THE LOCATION
Our client is located in Berkley Vale on the Central Coast. She wanted a granny flat offering the ability for her daughter to move up from Sydney and have her own beautiful 2 bedroom home which would offer privacy but still have the support and companionship of her mother.
Berkeley Vale is a highly desired suburb on the Central Coast. Fast access to the Freeway makes Sydney and Newcastle accessible for commuters who desire a more relaxed lifestyle away from the city centres.
This suburb is on the banks of Tuggerah Lake, which is a popular destination for locals. The cycleway around the lake has parks, playgrounds and picnic and barbecue areas. Perfect for a leisurely family day out or a more vigorous trip to the bustling cafes of Long Jetty.
With a friendly and sociable small-town vibe, Berkeley Vale has great shopping and a variety of cafes and restaurants nearby.
A family-friendly area, Berkley Vale is ideally located close to local beaches, shopping centres, schools, and hospitals. This modern granny flat encapsulates the tranquil coastal lifestyle of its surrounds and will provide our clients with a fantastic return on investment as each home has the potential to earn upwards of $420 rental return per week based on area averages.
THE PROJECT
Our client wanted Acrow Granny Flats to design and construct a 2 bedroom granny flat that would appeal to her daughter so both of them were involved in the colour selections and finishes process.
This home is a coastal retreat, with an open plan kitchen and living area flowing out onto a perfectly complemented merbau entry porch and stairs. This granny flat boasts 2 spacious bedrooms with modern bathroom & kitchen
NSW Spotted Gum laminate flooring throughout the living areas, a modern clean kitchen with Bianco Aquila benchtops, white gloss splashback and stainless steel appliances exudes luxury and embraces the vibe of the seaside. Split system revers cycle air conditioning and ceiling fans add comfort on those warm Summer days.
Crisp white walls throughout the granny flat has added the bright airy feel the client wanted which is complimented by the natural light which comes through.
The granny flat comes with lovely features such as built in robes, spacious open plan living area, off street parking, outdoor entertainment area and a lovely garden.
The results more than match the brief and the clients are thrilled with their stylish investment.
Both the client and her daughter were thrilled with the outcome.

Family is important to us as a family-owned and operated business. It is a great idea to construct a granny flat for your elderly relatives in order to keep them closer together, while ensuring their independence as well. Some people find it emotionally and financially overwhelming to think about placing their elderly parents in a nursing home. With a granny flat, they can remain independent and private on your property while remaining on your property.
The difficulty of saving for a house deposit has made Granny Flats an attractive option for building your first new home while still maintaining your independence, privacy, and space. An ideal solution for a new family home is a granny flat. This is not only cheaper than buying a house and land, but is also more comfortable and compact, allowing for all the necessities of the home while being easier to maintain and resulting in lower energy costs. Single parents or families with young children will find this to be an ideal solution.
