Only one ancillary dwelling can be built on each lot. Building an ancillary dwelling does not allow you to subdivide your lot, unless it is already allowed under the local planning scheme. Be aware that the change to occupancy requirements does not automatically apply to existing ancillary dwellings or granny flats. A new approval from the council is usually required before they can be occupied by a non-family member.
