Start Planning Your Garden Annexe

From compact one-bedroom annexes to spacious two-bedroom annexes and three-bedroom layouts, we design and build our garden annexes to order. Our turnkey service covers design, planning applications, foundations, agreed utility connections and installation.

We build with safety, durability and energy efficiency in mind. Where your project requires Building Regulations approval, we manage the Building Control process and provide the necessary structural calculations.

A free, no-obligation site survey helps us assess your garden, access and requirements before preparing your fixed-price quotation. We tailor the layout and specification to your lifestyle, needs and budget.

Many families choose a garden annexe so an older parent can keep their independence with family close by. Our granny annexes are designed for exactly that, with a fitted kitchen, shower room, bedroom and living area under one roof. Our annexes also suit adult children and dependent relatives, or work as space for guests or working from home.

No Expensive Showroom. Better Value for You

We operate without a traditional showroom, helping us keep overheads down and focus on the design, materials and installation of your garden annexe. If you’d like to see our work in person, ask us about viewing a completed annexe, subject to availability.

Quality Garden Annexes Built to Last

Warm, solid and made for everyday living

We build our garden annexes using Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), combining a strong structure with effective insulation for year-round comfort. Each annexe includes fully fitted living spaces, with materials and finishes chosen around your requirements.

Home Extension Versus Garden Annexe

A home extension adds space to your existing house, while a garden annexe provides separate living accommodation with its own kitchen, shower room and bedroom. For families who want to live close together, an annexe offers privacy and independence with support nearby.

The best choice depends on your garden, budget and family’s needs. Our Caravan Act guide explains one possible planning route for your project.

Frequently Asked Questions About Garden Annexes

How much does a garden annexe cost?

Our fully fitted one-bedroom annexes start from £85,000 and two-bedroom annexes from £130,000, including VAT where applicable. After your free site survey, you’ll receive a fixed-price quotation for your chosen design. See our garden annexe cost guide for a full breakdown.

Do I need planning permission for a garden annexe?

It depends on the design, where it sits and how it will be used. Some projects need a full planning application, while others suit a Lawful Development Certificate (LDC). We’ll find the right route and manage the application for you. Read our planning guide

Can I rent out my annexe?

An annexe is normally used in connection with the main house. Renting it out separately or as holiday accommodation could change its planning status, so let us know at the start if that’s part of your plans.

Do I pay Council Tax on an annexe?

It depends on who lives there and how it’s used. An annexe that’s the main home of a qualifying dependent relative may be exempt. Our Council Tax guide for annexes explains the current rules.

Are service connections included in the cost?

Yes. The agreed water, electricity and foul drainage connections, along with standard trenching, are included in your fixed-price annexe quotation. We assess the service routes during your free site survey and clearly identify any additional work or costs before you commit.
