Dreaming of more space? An Oakwrights annexe might be the perfect solution
For many of us, a lack of space is one of the main complaints about our homes. Whether you are searching for a peaceful home office, dream of a creative studio space, or are longing for a room to host friends and family, an elegant oak-frame annexe could be the perfect solution.
Utilising part of your garden to erect an annexe can transform the way you use your property. By building in oak, your addition will be timeless and blend seamlessly into your garden’s surroundings.
Building a new addition to your home may feel daunting. However, Oakwrights’ three-bay annexe makes the process simple. Using the three-bay design as a basis, you can tailor your annexe to reflect your own requirements. You may want to feature lots of glazing to create an indoor/outdoor feel, ideal for enjoying your garden all year round. On the other hand, if you’re planning to use your annexe as a bedroom or office, you may prefer the sound and heat insulation that is provided by oak cladding or softwood weatherboarding.
Larger decisions, such as the number of bays and the floorplan, will also be influenced by both the intended purpose of your annexe and its siting. When discussing the possibilities with your design consultant, they will advise whether your future annexe will be likely to require planning permission or will fall under permitted development.
From here, the team at Oakwrights will design, manufacture and assemble your oak-frame annexe, using industry-leading technology alongside traditional craftsmanship. They will also provide you with all the elements to create a dry shell including joinery and rafters, studwork, oak eaves and verge, cladding and casement windows, and can supply and assemble the roof if required.
