Council - Tiny Houses Byron Bay regulations

Yes, you can have a tiny house in Byron Bay, but the rules vary depending on the type of tiny home and how you intend to use it. Here’s a breakdown:

1. Tiny Homes on Wheels (THOW)

These are considered movable dwellings, similar to caravans.

  • Short-Term Use: You can have up to two caravans, campervans, or tents for short-term stays (up to 2 consecutive days) for a maximum of 60 days each year. Byron Shire Council+1earth-haven.com+1
  • Long-Term Use: You can have a single caravan, campervan, or tent for a long-term household member to reside in, but only if you already have an approved dwelling (house) on the property. Byron Shire Council+1earth-haven.com+1
  • Vacant Land: Living permanently in a tiny home on a vacant block without an existing dwelling is not permitted.

 

2. Fixed Tiny Homes (Secondary Dwellings)

Our Hybrid Tiny Homes can be classified as permanent structures, like granny flats. While maintaining the ability to be relocatable.

  • Approvals Needed: You must obtain a Development Application (DA) and Construction Certificate (CC). Home+5Byron Shire Council+5earth-haven.com+5

If I could give more stars I would. Dan, Cody & the Konpak team are truly a gem within this industry. They pride themselves on quality builds & you see that in the beautiful homes they create. We had specifics with our build and they were always met with curiosity & willingness. Design suggestions by Cody and Dan have really elevated the space. If you want expert knowledge, quality in craftsmen ship & a team that truly care about their trade & clients. I’d recommend Konpak time and time again. Thank you ☺️

We were initially overwhelmed by the decision of which tiny house company to entrust, but choosing Konpak was the best decision we could have made. From start to finish, the process was incredibly smooth and stress-free. Communication with Cody throughout the entire build was outstanding — he was always responsive, transparent and willing to accommodate every single request we had. Cody’s wealth of knowledge, attention to detail and genuine passion for what he does made the experience not only easy but exciting. Every wish of ours came to life and the result is nothing short of our dream home. The workmanship, quality of materials and customisation were all exceptional. What stood out most was that the entire process never felt transactional — it truly felt like Cody and the Konpak team were just as invested in our home as we were. We are beyond grateful for the entire experience and could not recommend Konpak enough.

Konpak built our dream off grid tiny home. We couldn’t have been happier with the professionalism and process of the design and build. Cody transformed our vision into a design that was functional and beautiful. The thought that went into the design was next to none. Dan has a keen eye and a wealth of building experience, ensuring a good quality build, and helped with all other queries along the way. A great local business, turning dreams to life. The tiny home life is just as amazing as they promised

I can't thank Cody and the team enough for their knowledge, dedication and professionalism on building and living Tiny. The process for designing works great. It helps you to be clear about your vision and budget. Communication with Konpak was always hassle free, and no question or request was ever a problem. And my initial ideas were embraced, even though I thought it would be too big an ask. It was scary investing in a tiny home builder. I did a lot of research and went to expo's. When I found Konpak they stood out for me because their website and responses were on the mark. I requested a site visit, which was welcomed. The visit enabled me to meet the team, see the quality of the finishes and detail the special requirements I had. Like, BAL rating requirements, double glazing and extra insulation, etc. The working relationship we developed means I have confidence should issues arise they will be resolved without stress. Highly recommend. 👍
