Only the best for mum: creating a modern Mayfield granny flat for a mother-son duo
An up-and-coming village on the edge of a seaside city, Mayfield is in hot demand. One of Newcastle’s most popular neighborhoods, this northwestern suburb is brimming with quirky cafes, peaceful parkland and assorted boutiques. Not to mention it’s just a 15-minute drive from the Pacific Ocean!
And now, it’s home to yet another one of our gorgeous granny flats!
Kalen Bridge had long been on the hunt for a property with a backyard big enough for his mum, Lyndall, to live on the same site in a spacious granny flat. Having searched far and wide for the perfect set up, he found exactly what he was looking for at 32 Upfold St.
From there, all the Bridges needed was a professional team to make their dream design a reality. After getting in touch with Backyard Grannys, their Mayfield granny flat was built and ready for residence in just 15 weeks!
With Kalen occupying the front house and Lyndall in her very own backyard abode, this mother-son duo have aced multi-generational living (and we all know that’s quite the feat!). Balancing the best of both worlds, they can now enjoy their own separate space and privacy while settling down only a stone’s throw from each other.
