Adding value, flexibility, and opportunity to your Adelaide property.

If you've been dreaming of more space, more freedom, or even an extra income stream, a fully finished tiny home or granny flat could be the smartest investment you make in your property.
At Inoutside, we design and build high-quality, turnkey studios, granny flats, and outdoor buildings right here in Adelaide. Unlike kit homes or shell-only options, our buildings are complete from the moment we hand over the keys - no chasing trades, no extra costs, no headaches.
But let’s dive into why a finished prefab building is more than just an upgrade—it’s a game-changer.
1. Instant Value Add to Your Property
A high-quality, architecturally designed outdoor building isn’t just functional—it’s a major boost to your property’s appeal and resale value.
Whether it’s a studio, garden room, tiny home, or fully fitted granny flat, buyers love the flexibility and finished look of a well-designed extra space. Plus, because we take care of the approvals and full installation, it meets all compliance standards from day one.
2. A Smart Path to Extra Income
Need passive income or a side hustle? Your finished tiny home can become an Airbnb rental, long-term lease, or even a private office for running a business from home.
Unlike basic sheds or half-finished kit builds, our prefab granny flats are fully self-contained, meaning you can start renting or using them immediately. That’s money in your pocket—without months of renovation or project management.
3. Flexible Living for Life’s Changing Needs
Life changes—your home should be ready for it.
Whether you need:
A space for guests or extended family
A peaceful home office away from the main house
A private teen retreat or artist studio
Emergency accommodation for a loved one
A future downsizer option
A turnkey prefab building gives you the freedom to adapt. With a finished bathroom, kitchenette, insulation, and full electrical—our buildings are ready for anything.
4. The Turnkey Difference
Many other “prefab” or “kit” options on the market leave you with an empty shell. You'll still need to organise:
Footings and site prep
Council approvals
Internal finishes
Bathrooms, kitchens, and service connections
Qualified trades for install
That’s more time, more money, and more stress.
With Inoutside, we do it all. Our fully finished outdoor rooms include:
Site prep and approvals
Footings and structural base
Electrical, insulation, plasterboarding
Bathroom and kitchenette installation
Painting, flooring, and service connections
So when we’re done, it’s done. You can move in—or rent it out—the same day.
5. Built Right Here in Adelaide
Our buildings are Australian-made, built tough for South Australian conditions, and installed by local experts who care about quality.
We don’t cut corners. We don’t leave things unfinished. We deliver value through transparent pricing, superior craftsmanship, and total peace of mind.
Investment with Long-Term Value
From flexible living to long-term rental income, a finished granny flat or tiny home is more than an addition - it’s a smart, future-ready investment.
