Period Living

Room to grow

Expand your home with an oak-frame annexe from Prime Oak

-

Additional space is a luxury for some homeowners whereas for others it has become a necessity. Multi-generation­al living is on the rise; in fact it is a reality for a third of British homes. Adult children account for most set-ups, though arrangemen­ts with older relatives are also on the rise. Similarly, for those that work remotely, finding a working environmen­t away from the distractio­ns has proven difficult.

The events of the past few years have intensifie­d these questions, making it all the more important for you to figure out how to adapt your home so that it best serves you and your family.

NEW ADDITION

Annexes are a perfect investment, providing extra space while offering independen­ce from the main home, whether for additional accommodat­ion, a home office, hobby room, entertaini­ng space, or income streams such as holiday lets and rentals. Annexes have seen a huge surge in interest over the past few years, which is set to continue, with as many as one in eight UK homes expected to include additional space such as a ‘granny flat’.

MATERIAL MATTERS

Oak is a sympatheti­c yet characterf­ul addition to any home but works particular­ly well with period properties.

Not only is it a natural material that will last a lifetime, ageing gracefully and timelessly, but it is also eco-friendly, which is becoming increasing­ly more important to buyers.
