The ‘Princess’ in our collection

The Darwin garden annexe offers a unique, modern design with a choice of rendered colours on the exterior. Inside, you’ll find a separate kitchen, bedroom, living space and generously sized bedroom. The flexibility of the design means you can create a space that feels homely, whilst being functional and spacious. Large windows at the entrance bring in natural light for a fresh and airy atmosphere.

The Darwin is a great choice for a permanent living space, or granny flat. It’s finished with a mix of composite cladding and silicone rendering, in a choice of colours, for a completely bespoke look. Customise your kitchen with a choice of designs available and complement the spacious bedroom and ensuite with our range of high-quality sanitaryware items. Internally and externally, the Darwin has a range of customisation extras available so you can truly make it your own.

Bathrooms

One of the biggest benefits of a garden annexe over a garden room is that you can build kitchens and bathrooms within your space. We can design and build a bathroom designed to your specifications and needs, finished with modern, sleek but compact sanitaryware and showers.

Fully Customisable

Our offering of a completely bespoke garden annexe that is designed and built to your specific requirements and dreams is what sets us apart. Everything from flooring to fascias through to the shape and size of your annexe is completely customisable.

10-year Guarantee

Investing in a garden annexe is a big commitment and a massive change to your home. Because of this, you want to be confident in your purchase. We offer a 10-year structural guarantee on all our custom garden rooms and outdoor living annexes to give you complete peace of mind.

Our approach to planning permission

As a garden annexe is a habitable space (i.e., it includes a kitchen, bathroom and at times, bedrooms), planning permission is required prior to build. The plan for your annexe will need to undergo extensive planning and pass building regulations – but we can help you with this process as a part of our service.

Do you have a question?

  • Do I need planning permission?

    Planning permission is not required for a garden room (in most cases), but planning permission is needed for a garden annexe. This is because an annexe is a room that’s ‘habitable’ – for example, includes bedrooms, a bathroom, etc. We recommend customers check they have permitted development rights first, Custom Garden Rooms are on hand to help if needed.

  • What is the difference between a garden annexe and garden room?

    Put simply, a garden annexe is a ‘habitable room’ meaning it contains living accommodation. Due to this, planning permission will need to be obtained and building regulations approval will also be required, but don’t worry we can help with all this. The construction of the building is also modified to adhere to all of the above.

  • What are your average lead times?

    Typically, our custom outdoor living spaces are completed between 6 and 12 weeks. If you need something a little different or we think there will be any issues with your build which will affect this lead time, we will let you know ahead of your project starting.
