Blacktown, Mount Druitt, St Marys, Penrith and the surrounding west
Western Sydney
The west is Sydney's granny flat heartland for a simple reason: the lots were drawn generously. Deep backyards behind post-war and 1970s homes leave room for a detached secondary dwelling with yard to spare, and consistent rental demand across the region keeps completed flats occupied.

What Level 2 work looks like here
Deep rectangular lots across the older release areas commonly satisfy setback and open-space tests with room left over.
Strong tenant demand for compact affordable dwellings underpins the rental case throughout the region.
Reactive clay soils in parts of the west put slab engineering and drainage detailing at the front of construction planning.
Side-access driveways on many blocks simplify construction logistics compared with inner-ring terraces.

Granny flat construction is residential building work under NSW law and must be carried out by a builder holding a current NSW Fair Trading contractor licence, under a written contract, with home building compensation cover in place for work above the insurance threshold before a deposit is taken. Licence details can be checked in minutes on the public online register: do that for any builder you deal with, whatever website introduced them.
