We have completed a new Granny Annexe in the Basildon area, this 8m x 5m annexe with pitched roof is slightly larger than our standard sized annexe. It has only had an extra 1.5 meters added to the depth but this does dramatically increase the internal size and space. The owners of the annexe have moved from living downstairs in a large house to the Granny Annexe and are extremely happy with their decision.

Bright and Airy
Because of the extra 1.5m on the annexe, the bedroom and living space feel very open, lots of light comes through the large french doors to the front of the building. When the sun is over the annexe the velux in the kitchen area bathes the room. The ceiling of the annexe is pitched and this gives a wonderfully airy feeling and opens up the internal space.
Cottage Feel
The family decided to go for a cottage style build, we provide bespoke buildings so we were able to create something specifically for them, true to form, Granny Annexe made their ideas a reality. Brick quoins with a pitched roof really finalise the cottage style.
All the Essentials
Our granny annexes are fully finished and decorated so when we are finished you can simply move in. Granny Annexe not only build the water-tight structure and foundations but also fit a fully functioning bathroom and a good-sized kitchen.
Our customer chose to have a wetroom including with a large shower, heated towel rail, W/C and vanity unit.
One of the Warmest Buildings Around
Granny Annexe uses Structurally Insulated Panels (SIPs) to construct annexes and garden rooms. All Granny Annexe SIPs are manufactured individually for your annexe at our Bedfordshire production facility.
Granny Annexe SIPs have a great insulation rating, falling well within UK Government limits. Our U-values are within the upper limits, contributing towards the energy efficiency of the building.
