Do You Want Your Parents Or Grandparents To Live Closer?

Living longer, healthier lives is something we have all come to expect - we can all look forward to having our parents and grandparents with us for many, many years.

However, the need to move to new locations to find work means that grown up children are frequently living miles apart from their parents with grandchildren seeing their grandparents only on rare or special occasions.

Having our parents living with us always seems, at first, a good idea, particularly if they need some kind of care while maintaining their independence.  Extending our homes either by adding an extension or having a full loft conversion are perfectly viable options, but both have serious drawbacks: disruptive building works, protracted build programmes and eye watering costs.

So why not consider building a Granny Annex in your back garden where parents can live close at hand but still retain a large measure of independence.

Stylish and beautiful a Granny Annexe from grannyannexe.com could well be the ideal solution – and they are a lot less expensive than an extension, cause a minimum of disruption and can be ready to move into in less than three weeks.

Now, don’t let the short time frame fool you, Granny Annexes are as far removed from Hi-de-hi holiday chalets as it’s possible to be.

Built to the same standards as your home, and lasting just as long, a Granny Annexe contains bedrooms, a beautiful fitted kitchen, bathrooms with shower or wet rooms, a living room, full insulation and a plaster finish to the walls.  All with a ten year guarantee.

The insulation is so efficient that a Granny Annex should cost no more than £200 a year to heat – that’s less than £5.00 a week.

The exteriors are low maintenance and the building is clad in cedar which ages to a beautiful silver grey.

Of course, you can have any interior fittings you like from plug sockets at waist height to grab rails, or anything you need to make life a little easier.
