What We Built
This 8m x 2.75m compact one-bedroom annexe demonstrates how much can be achieved in a narrow footprint. Finished in striking black composite cladding, this sleek garden building includes a fully-fitted kitchenette with sink, storage cupboards and integrated fridge, a comfortable bedroom, and a complete shower room with toilet and vanity basin.
The exterior features anthracite grey uPVC windows and French doors, complemented by stylish exterior wall lights that create a warm ambience in the evenings. The linear layout makes efficient use of every inch of space, with internal doors connecting the kitchenette, bedroom and shower room.
Inside, oak-effect laminate flooring runs throughout the main living areas, while the shower room features contemporary grey tile-effect flooring and walls. The shower enclosure includes a chrome heated towel rail for added comfort. Full electrics with recessed LED spotlights provide excellent lighting throughout.
