Why Choose an Annexe?

Independent Living, Together

Multi-generational living is about more than just proximity—it’s about balance. Our annexes offer the perfect middle ground: complete independence for your loved ones with the safety and security of having family just a few steps away.

  • For Parents & Grandparents: Stay close to grandchildren while maintaining a private, high-spec sanctuary.
  • For Young Adults: Provide a launchpad for the next generation in a market where traditional housing is out of reach.
  • For Future Peace of Mind: Create a space that adapts to your family’s needs, ensuring support is always available whenever it's needed.

A Smart Investment for Your Home & Family

An annexe isn't just a building; it’s a strategic financial asset.

  • Significant Cost Savings: With average UK care home fees at £1,100 per week, a self-contained annexe pays for itself in just a few years.
  • Increase Property Value: A bespoke, building-reg-compliant annexe can significantly boost your home’s resale value and appeal to a wider market.
  • Future-Proof Your Assets: Instead of "sunk costs" in care fees, you are reinvesting that capital back into your own property.

The Annexe Design Process

No two families are the same, and we believe your home should reflect that. While ‘off-the-shelf’ units force you to compromise, our bespoke design process ensures every inch of your annexe is crafted to your specific needs, aesthetic, and site requirements.

Your Journey Starts with a Free Design Consultation

We provide a complimentary, no-obligation site survey to help you visualise the possibilities. Our experts will assess your space, discuss your layout preferences, and provide professional guidance on how to maximise both the functionality and the value of your new home.

Customise your Decking

Standard Timber Decking

Our hard-wearing standard timber decking has been tanalised to provide durability. This process involves the wood being pressure treated, forcing the treatment deep into the timber cells. This provides long term protection from rot, fungi and insect attack. With proper maintenance you can expect many years of use out of your timber decking. Pressure treated joists are suitable for both in & out of ground contact and interior & exterior applications.

Upgrade: Timber Yellow Balau Decking

Yellow Balau is a tropical hardwood that offers a unique colour range of golden yellow browns through to pale red browns, which sit beautifully within a natural environment. It is a tight-grained strong timber with an even texture, making it very hard-wearing and durable. Balau is often used in marine construction due to its natural water resistance and anti-slip properties. It also has a natural built-in resistance to fungal decay and insect attack. By looking after your Yellow Balau timber correctly, you can expect it to gradually weather to a silver-grey colour.

Standard Composite Decking

Composite decking creates a contemporary finish to your Garden Room. It is a high-quality, UV-resistant man-made product. It is produced from a combination of recycled hardwood fibres and polymers, along with bonding agents and colour tints. The bonding agent reinforces the wooden components, and the additives improve the decking’s weather resistance. Composite decking is moisture resistant and requires minimal maintenance. It highly durable, whilst being an environmentally conscious option. We offer our composite decking in either a dark charcoal grey or lighter stone-grey colourway.
