Founders Michael Loxley (Mick) and Peter Pappalardo (Pete) have been building small homes in this region for over a decade. Since the launch of East Coast Granny Flats & Small Homes in 2015, the pair have carefully selected a team of professionals able to manage the development process from concept to completion.
East Coast Granny Flats & Small Homes are award-winning granny flat builders and designers, serving the Mid North Coast and Northern Rivers areas of NSW. Our founders, Pete and Mick, having worked in the home addition industry for over a decade, recognised the growing need for granny flats and small homes as both investment opportunities and retirement living options.
East Coast Granny Flats & Small Homes was established in Coffs Harbour and has quickly grown to service the entire mid-north east coast of NSW, including the Mid & Mid North Coast region of Port Macquarie through to Tweed Heads in the Northern Rivers region to the Queensland border. We understand the needs, regulations and geography for this corner of the country, making us the ideal choice for granny flat and small home projects in this region.
Adding a granny flat in the backyard can be one of the best and safest investments you will ever make. A relatively small investment can offer a new source of income with high yields, whether through long term rental or holiday letting. It's also a great way to keep the family together, without having to live on top of each other.
Successful multi-generational living allows extended families to stay together while retaining privacy and independence. Whether you are caring for ageing parents or have adult children living at home, a backyard granny flat represents the perfect balance of connection and separation. As our population ages, and concerns grow about the quality of our aged care facilities, many families are looking for ways to keep ageing parents close.

The designs look nice (hence the second star) so I enquired about one of the options. I received a phone call from Peter who sounded like he would rather be doing anything else but following up on a sales lead. Blunt, condescending and stand offish on the phone to a confused, friendly, genuine enquirer. After getting some information (like pulling teeth) I asked for him to send some follow up information via email, which he said he would. Still waiting two weeks later..

Thank you to the team for making and installing our privacy screens on our deck, what a difference they make. They keep out the rain, protect us from the sun and allow us to still see our amazing view.
