Podlife Homes

60m2+ Podlife Transportable Homes

Small doesn't mean tiny.  Our 60m2 - 70m2 Podlife Homes give your more space with plans that take advantage of every square metre.

More home, more freedom to live well

When choosing a small home lifestyle, the goal is not to live smaller for the sake of it. It is to find a smarter way to create a real home, with the comfort, function, and quality - without the excesses of most modern residential houses. That is where Podlife’s larger home designs come into their own.

The 60m²+ range is designed for people who want more breathing room in the way they live, while still taking a more efficient path than a conventional build. These homes offer a stronger sense of day to day comfort, with layouts that feel more complete, more liveable, and better suited to long term use.

Whether it is a main home on a new site, a secondary dwelling on an existing property, or part of a larger long term property plan, this range is about creating a home that feels well resolved from the start.

Why choose a 60m2+ Podlife Home?

For many buyers, this type of home sits in the sweet spot between a standard residential build and tiny home living. It offers a more complete home outcome, without automatically taking on the full scale, cost, and complexity of a conventional build.

"...amazing through winter...”


"Love my new home! Beautiful, high-quality design and build. I’ve had my Pod on-site for the last six months, and it was amazing through winter. The team at Podlife are incredible and made the whole process so easy, plus they took care of my building consent!"

More of a full-home feel

Larger layouts can provide the breathing room, functionality, and comfort that many people want for everyday living.

A way to step outside the standard housing cycle

Choosing a Podlife home is part of a bigger lifestyle or financial shift. Downsizing from a larger conventional home, building more modestly, or making use of available land can help free up capital and reduce the pressure that often comes with traditional housing pathways.

A better fit than tiny home living

For those who like the idea of efficient living but do not want to go too small, 60m+ designs can offer a more comfortable balance of space and practicality.

A strong option for main or secondary dwellings

These homes can work well as a primary residence, or as a substantial secondary dwelling on an existing property.

A smarter use of the site

On the right property, a 60m+ home can create a comfortable and independent space while still keeping family close. That may suit empty nesters, adult children returning home, or families looking for a better long-term use of shared land.

The benefits of Podlife Homes

Designed to make the most of every square metre

As Podlife homes increase in size, the benefit is not just extra floor area. It is what that space allows the home to become. Larger layouts can create a stronger sense of flow, better separation between living and sleeping zones, and more of the practical features that make everyday life easier.

Depending on the design, that may include features such as a more generous kitchen, improved storage, sliding wardrobe doors, pendant lighting over a kitchen island, heated towel rails, and in some layouts, the added functionality of a scullery. These details help the home feel less like a compact solution and more like a complete living environment.

The goal is not simply to maximise area. It is to use that area well, so the home feels calm, capable, and enjoyable to live in.

Build quality that feels right from day one

When choosing a home, size is only part of the picture. The quality of the build, materials, detailing, and overall finish all shape how the home feels to live in over time. Podlife homes begin with a strong baseline of quality, and the larger home range is designed to deliver a level of comfort and refinement that supports everyday living.

That matters not only in how the home looks, but in how it functions. A well-built, well-finished home feels more settled from the start and continues to perform better over the long term. For buyers wanting a home that feels considered rather than compromised, that quality makes a real difference.

A simpler path than a conventional build

For many people, one of the biggest attractions of a Podlife home is that it offers a different path to creating a new home. A conventional build can involve a long chain of consultants, drawings, decisions, trades, and unknowns before the end result starts to feel real.

A Podlife home offers a more streamlined approach. While every site still needs proper planning and preparation, choosing a pre-designed home can remove a lot of complexity from the process and make the path forward feel clearer. It allows buyers to focus on selecting a home that suits the way they want to live, then planning the site, services, and foundations around it.

This does not mean every project is identical, but it can mean fewer moving parts and a more straightforward route to a finished home.

Built for now, with room to think ahead

A 60m+ Podlife home can absolutely stand on its own as a complete home solution, but it can also be part of a wider property plan. Some buyers may want to add a smaller secondary pod from the beginning for guests, hobbies, work, or overflow space. Others may prefer to plan the site so there is room to add another pod later as needs change.

That kind of thinking can be especially useful on larger sites, lifestyle blocks, or family properties where the way the land is used may evolve over time. Planning for future flexibility early can help create a property that works well now while leaving space for new opportunities later on.

Why build with Podlife

Choosing Podlife is about more than choosing a floor plan. It is about working with a team focused on creating homes that feel practical, well resolved, and genuinely enjoyable to live in.

Podlife homes are designed to balance efficient construction with everyday comfort, combining smart layouts with a strong level of finish and liveability. For buyers, that means access to a home solution that feels considered from both a design and build perspective, rather than something that has been treated as a stripped-back alternative to a conventional house.

This is especially important in the larger home range, where buyers are often comparing their options not only against other prefabricated homes, but against more traditional building paths as well.

Our process

Finding the right fit

Once we understand what is needed, we can help identify the right Pod design. That may be a standard plan or a version with selected upgrades and practical changes.

Finalising design & specs

Once the design and scope are approved, we confirm the key project details, finalise plans, and prepare everything for production.

Pricing with no surprises

Once the scope is clear, we can provide pricing and talk through any wider project costs such as foundations, access, services, or delivery requirements.

Building your new Pod

Your Pod is built in a controlled factory environment with strong quality control, while site planning continues in parallel to keep the project moving smoothly.

Ready for delivery

When the time comes, we coordinate delivery and positioning, with planning already in place for access, foundations, clearances, and lifting requirements.

Handover and support

Once your Pod is in place, we provide the relevant documentation, warranties, and support to help carry the project through to handover.

Common questions

A 60m+ Podlife Home is one of Podlife’s larger home designs, created for people wanting more internal space, more liveability, and a stronger full-home feel than a smaller pod or tiny home layout.

They can suit a wide range of buyers, including those building a main home on a new site, creating a secondary dwelling on an existing property, downsizing without wanting to compromise too much on comfort, or planning a more flexible long term property setup.

Podlife homes are designed as compliant dwellings, with layouts and inclusions intended to support real day to day living. Site specific requirements, consents, and approvals will still depend on the project and location.

The main difference is the living outcome. Tiny homes are typically chosen for simplicity, minimalism, or a deliberately smaller lifestyle. The 60m+ range is aimed at people wanting more space, a more complete home layout, and a stronger sense of full-time liveability.

Yes, these designs are intended to function as real homes and can be suitable as a main dwelling, depending on the site, approvals, and overall project setup.

Yes. Some buyers choose to pair a larger main home with a smaller secondary pod for guests, work, hobbies, or extra flexibility. Others plan their site so additional pods can be added later.

The exact process will depend on the home, site, and project requirements, but it typically includes selecting a design, planning for site works and foundations, and working through the steps needed for delivery and installation. Supporting pages can help explain these parts in more detail.

These topics can be covered in more depth through supporting pages across the Podlife website, including information on planning, site preparation, foundations, and how the overall process works.
