Why FreshPod®
A smarter middle path for extra backyard space.
FreshPod® is designed for homeowners who want a proper finished room without turning an extra-space brief into a slow, expensive building project. It gives you the access-friendly speed of a modular system, with the comfort and finish expected from a room you can actually enjoy every day.
Cheaper option
Container house or basic shell
A container-style shell can look affordable at first, but it often needs more work before it feels like a comfortable backyard room.
- Not purpose-built as a finished living space
- Weaker thermal comfort without extra upgrades
- Limited layout flexibility and natural light
- Can feel visually heavy in a finished backyard
FreshPod® position
Purpose-built, comfortable, modular
FreshPod® is designed as a finished backyard room from the start: more complete than a basic container option, without the cost, timeline and disruption of a full granny flat build.
- Purpose-built living space
- Better thermal performance and more natural light
- Flexible modular design for different uses
- Faster and simpler than traditional construction
- Easier access than heavy container delivery
- Less disruption than a full granny flat build
More expensive option
Traditional granny flat
A full granny flat can make sense for permanent accommodation, but it usually brings a larger budget, longer timeline, more approvals and more disruption than many families need.
- Higher project cost and longer programme
- More complex approvals and coordination
- More site disruption and trade scheduling
- Often more building work than the brief requires
Delivered flat-pack, locked together on site.
FreshPod® arrives in manageable components and is assembled into a finished backyard room on your property. The quick-lock structure helps each connection interlock cleanly, so access stays practical without relying on heavy container delivery.

Design and project questions
Clear answers before the brief turns into a proposal
Do I need council approval for a FreshPod®?
Approval rules vary between Australian states. In NSW, many freestanding houses may be eligible under exemption rules if the project meets the required conditions. We review the project and provide our recommendation.
What is the typical lead time?
Normal lead time is around 8-10 weeks. On-site installation is usually completed within 3-5 days, including electrical connection. Special sizes or customised requirements may take longer.
Can I customise the size and layout?
FreshPod® comes in selected size options to maintain consistent factory quality. Width options include 2.7m and 3.9m, with length options of 3.9m, 5.1m, 6.3m and 7.5m. Each module is based on a 1.2m system.
How well is the pod insulated and sealed?
FreshPod® is designed with insulated wall and roof panels, sealed joints and quality glazing to improve comfort, reduce heat transfer and protect the space from wind and rain.
Can the pod be relocated in the future?
Yes. FreshPod® uses a modular structure, allowing flexibility for future relocation where site conditions permit.
How much does a FreshPod® cost?
Turnkey price starts from $26,000 + GST. Final price depends on service requirements, size, configuration, optional upgrades and inclusions.
How does drainage and stormwater work?
The pod is designed with roof fall and drainage solutions to direct rainwater away from the structure. Site-specific drainage requirements are reviewed during planning.
Are there any ground or site requirements?
Different sites require different foundation solutions. Fresh Outdoor can recommend a suitable foundation system for tiles, concrete, grass or rocky ground.
How is the pod delivered and installed?
FreshPod® uses a flat-pack modular system. Prefabricated components are delivered in sections for on-site assembly without requiring large cranes.
What is included in the FreshPod® package?
The complete pod solution includes the structure, wall and roof modules, flooring, lighting, switches and power outlets. Sydney installation is available; other Australian regions are currently delivery only with installation guidance.
