2-Bedroom Granny Flats Ireland

A two-bedroom granny flat opens up significantly more possibilities than a single-bedroom unit. Two separate sleeping spaces allow a couple or a small family to live independently and comfortably on the same property as the main house, with the privacy and dignity that separate bedrooms provide. At pineca.ie, our two-bedroom granny flat range covers contemporary mobile-home classified annexes and substantial residential timber homes, all insulated for year-round use in Ireland and available in a range of sizes from approximately 60 m² to 80 m².

Two-bedroom flats – contemporary cladded models

The SELENE M (63 m², 44 mm + cladding) is our flagship two-bedroom granny flat, combining a spacious two-bedroom layout with a generous living room, bathroom, and contemporary vertical cladding that gives the building a polished, modern appearance. Like all our mobile-home-classified annexe models, the SELENE M may not require planning permission when placed within the garden of an existing dwelling in many Irish situations. An insulated version is available for comfortable year-round residential use.

Two-bedroom garden lodges

For a more permanent and substantial two-bedroom granny flat, our garden lodge range includes the LINCOLN M (72 m², 66 mm), MEGAN M (60 m², 66 mm), and other models with two dedicated bedrooms, a spacious living room, a bathroom, and in many cases a covered terrace. The 66 mm log construction used in our premium garden lodge models provides exceptional natural thermal mass and acoustic performance, making them among the most comfortable and durable residential timber structures available in Ireland.

Why two bedrooms makes such a difference

The step from one to two bedrooms transforms what a granny flat can achieve. Two bedrooms allow a couple to have separate sleeping spaces if needed, accommodate a regular overnight guest without disruption, provide a dedicated study or home office space within the granny flat, or give grandchildren their own room when they visit. For elderly parents with adult children who visit regularly, the second bedroom turns a granny flat from a compact personal space into a proper home capable of hosting family life.

Questions & Answers

What size two-bedroom granny flat do I need?

A comfortable two-bedroom granny flat for two adults requires a minimum of approximately 55–65 m². This allows for two proper bedrooms of 10–12 m² each, a living room of 20 m² or more, a kitchen area, and a bathroom. Our two-bedroom models range from 60 m² to 90 m², providing options at different price points for different family requirements. Call our team at +353 1 699 4541 to discuss the right size for your specific situation.

Does a two-bedroom granny flat require planning permission in Ireland?

This depends on the type of structure. Our mobile-home-classified two-bedroom flat models may be placed without planning permission in many Irish situations when used as additional accommodation to the main dwelling, subject to local authority rules. Larger, permanent residential timber homes will generally require a planning application. We strongly recommend checking with your local authority before proceeding. Call us at +353 1 699 4541 for general guidance on what to expect.

Can both bedrooms in a two-bedroom granny flat have en-suite bathrooms?

Standard two-bedroom models have one shared bathroom serving both bedrooms. En-suite arrangements require additional plumbing and floor area, which can be accommodated through our bespoke design service. If an en-suite configuration is important to you, please discuss this with our team before ordering. Call us at +353 1 699 4541.

What is the difference between the SELENE M and the LINCOLN M two-bedroom models?

The SELENE M is a mobile-home-classified flat in 44 mm + cladding construction with a contemporary exterior – often the choice when planning-exempt status is a priority. The LINCOLN M is a larger residential garden lodge in 66 mm log construction with traditional character – the choice when permanent residential quality and the natural character of heavy timber are priorities. Both are fully insulated. Our team can help you choose between them based on your specific circumstances – call us at +353 1 699 4541.
