Custom cabin is ideal way to create more space

Need more space but want to avoid the hassles of an extension? Our custom cabins are a fantastic alternative.

When Amy and Mark were looking to extend the space of their Brisbane home to accommodate growing teenagers, they found a customised version of our Sicilia Panorama 30 cabin ticked all the right boxes. With only a tight space available, the flexibility of the design allowed it to be altered to fit, with bi-fold doors opening out to a basketball court, lawns and gardens.

DIY Studio Built by Father and Son Proves the ideal Solution to Create More Space

When David wanted to build a poolside studio to extend the space in the family home, our backyard cabins proved ideal.

Set in an elevated position, our cabin looks right at home in the gorgeous tropical setting in Mount Gravatt, Queensland. With a bedroom, ensuite and living area complete with kitchenette, it provides a comfortable and self-sufficient studio retreat for David’s adult son, restoring space and harmony to the family home.

Oliver’s Madeira Project: Multi-Generational Living at its Best

For empty nesters looking to downsize our granny flats are a fantastic solution – as it was for Oliver and his mum.

With the daily chores and upkeep of her existing home starting to become difficult to manage, Oliver began looking at alternative living options for his mum. They fell in love with our energy efficient granny flats, and decided to build the one-bedroom Madeira in the backyard of the existing family home.

Update on Stock Levels, Project Times and Pricing

Over the past two years we’ve faced many challenges as we learn to live with the pandemic. Recently, the developments in Ukraine have also concerned us deeply, and we are actively supporting organisations who are on the ground helping those impacted through the donation of funds.

As these world events occur, we’re working hard behind the scenes to minimise disruptions and delays. Currently, most of our standard cabins are available and ready for dispatch. There is no disruption to manufacturing and supply of YZY Kit Homes due to Russia’s assault on Ukraine. Our timber is sourced from Northern Europe, with our factory located in the NATO zone. No shipments are travelling through the war zone.

Cosy and Comfortable Cabin is the Ideal Solution for Guests

The speed of the build and comfort level inside were key factors for our clients when building their guest house.

When Guy and Christine moved to picturesque Armidale in New South Wales, they fell in love with the location and surrounding landscape. Situated halfway between Brisbane and Sydney, they looked forward to entertaining friends and family who often passed through. However, with a small home they soon decided they needed more space—and our Corsica 30 cabin proved the ideal solution.

I was amazed by how well the building insulated is. I only turned the Air conditioner on once or twice during summer even on we had 5 days straight of over 40 degrees.
It serves me well, I’m very comfortable in my new home. Anybody who has come to my new home was very very impressed! Case study

It was a thrill when our Rhodes was finished and the kids could move in. We put our 2 older teenagers in here. It's just completely changed our world having them in this space. Honestly, we could not love it more. I pinch myself every day when I see it. Thank you for creating such an incredible product we are so proud to own. Case study

YZY Kit Homes and Custom Creations worked with us to help us realise our dream, from our original concept to our finished cottage. We couldn’t be happier with how they worked with us and the level of care and craftsmanship they applied. Nothing was too much trouble. Do we recommend them? Yes, without any hesitation. Case study
