Hi Personally I'd take out the media room. Bigger bedrooms have an impact and Renters tend to have tv's of their own in the bedroom. Make sure you have tv cable points in the bedrooms.

Hi, we have actually built a luxury 4 bedroom container home from scratch. It had a master bedroom, walk in robe, ensuite, laundry, living area, study, bathroom, toilet, alfrsco etc and ended by being quite large. We bought existing containers and converted them. As a builder, we understood the challenges of getting it to comply, but as MB has said, the challenges were huge. The engineering reinforcement and cutting of corten steel with a plasma cutter was a whole new learning curve in practicality. The realities of dealing with condensation /insulation and wiring are another. My strong suggestion to you is to either go through a specialist container builder (there is one in Victoria from memory) or use another method. Here's a piccy of what we did.... Ensuite

Granny Flats (secondary dwellings) to me are afterthoughts. Its the thing you add to an existing dwelling. Therefore if possible do a duplex if its possible in your area. Secondary Dwellings cost as much as any other similar sized dwelling. Many think that as they're so small they should be really really cheap....

my suggestion are based on the fact that mum and dad are usually at the house alone and aims for simple two person accommodation that can be rearranged to suit a crowd...the kitchen cabinets are the only fixed objects in the room and include a tall pantry, base cabinets and/or drawers with open shelves and wall cabinets and space for several people to work side by side with a small extendable dining table, two chairs and a bench seat (also used as a place for newspaper and lamp etc behind the recliners)...a patio with big table for outdoor eating under the shade of the tree with extra bench seats that can also be used inside... there's space for a small divan or night and day lounge with a wall hung tv and the corner bedroom door allows for much better circulation space in both the living and bedrooms with preferably a sliding glass door for indoor outdoor connection with or without the original front door and, based on the size of king single beds, there's no other arrangement that would allow both beds to have a view to the lake and there's just enough space for a biw, small desk and two chairs
