What Is Dual Living?
A dual living dwelling is essentially 2 completely separate houses built under the one roof, with a single owner. Each ‘living area’ has its own street entrance, different address, separate front doors, separate kitchen, separate bathroom, separate living areas, separate garden. Power, water, gas, NBN and all other services are separately installed into the separate dwellings: bills go to the respective address.
Looking from the street though, the modern solution looks like a single house and shares the 1 roof. Typically one living area is larger (3 or 4 bedroom) and the other is smaller (2 bedroom)
