A well-planned 70m² minor dwelling designed for comfortable, practical living. The MD70D combines a classic gable styling with an efficient layout suited to second dwellings, downsizers, farm accommodation, or rental units.
The open-plan living area runs the full width of the home, creating a strong sense of space within a compact footprint. Large sliding doors provide natural light and the option to connect to a deck if desired. The kitchen is positioned for practical use, with space for full- sized appliances and strong connection to the living zone. Bedrooms are positioned away from the main living space to provide privacy.
We pride ourselves on the scope of our standard inclusions. From high levels of thermal insulation, double glazing, premium carpets and a great range of interior and exterior finish colours. We exceed building code standards, and your expectations!

The home is designed within the 70m² size threshold. Eligibility depends on legislation, district plan rules, setbacks, height limits, and site conditions. We assess this during the Discover stage.
No. The 70m² refers to internal floor area only. Decks are optional and designed to suit your site.
In many situations this home may not require any consent. If consent is required then typically there are two consents: one for the factory-built home and one for the site (foundations and services). Requirements vary by council and property conditions.
Yes. Internal walls are non-load-bearing, allowing practical layout flexibility confirmed during Design and Detail stages.
Design & Detail: 6–12 weeks. Consent: 4–6 weeks (varies). Factory build: 10–12 weeks. Delivery & install: 2–4 weeks.
Overall timelines are usually around six months for a consented build and 3 – 4 months for a non consented build.
We supply transportable homes across the lower North Island from our New Plymouth factory. Delivery feasibility depends on road access and site conditions.
