Minor Dwelling and Sleepout

New build · Coatesville, North Auckland

Minor Dwelling and Sleepout

A 65m² minor dwelling and a separate 44m² sleepout on a Coatesville lifestyle block. Countryside living zones set their own rules for what a second dwelling can be and where it can sit. The zone shaped this one long before the design did.
