Here at KES Group, we understand that sharing space with our relatives can be a tight squeeze. However, changes to public health & private care have led to more homeowners extending their property to accommodate elderly relatives. In our latest blog, we look at how a modular granny annex can extend your space and provide the perfect living space for your loved ones.
It’s true: sharing our homes with our loved ones can often be a little cramped for comfort. From sharing bathroom facilities to navigating a crowded kitchen, living in confined spaces can certainly raise the stress levels. With more and more families making space for their elders, modular granny flats allow for expanded space and a stylish, comfortable living area – all without breaking the bank.
What is a Modular Granny Annex?
So, what is a modular granny annex? A modular granny annex (also known as a ‘granny flat’) is a prefabricated home which is manufactured off-site, with standard sections that can be easily shipped and assembled on-site. However, it’s more than just another modular building. It’s an innovative solution that allows our elders to safely live with us whilst simultaneously retaining their independence.
Modular granny flats are popping up throughout the UK, Ireland and Europe, with KES Group delivering a number of SMARTBUILD annexes. With the following benefits, it’s not hard to see why this trend is taking off…
