We are seeing a lot more clients asking us to create multi-generational homes 🏠 to help them care for their elderly loved ones 🫶🏼 before they need to go into a home.

💡The benefits - they offer financial, practical, and lifestyle advantages as follows:

✅ Cost Efficiency: Families can share household expenses, reducing overall financial burden.

✅ Caregiving Support: Easier coordination of childcare and eldercare responsibilities.

✅ Stronger Family Bonds: Daily interaction fosters closer relationships across generations.

✅ Adaptability: Homes can evolve with family needs, from a self-sufficient flat for a teenager before they get themselves on the property ladder to a granny annexe for elderly parents, or even to provide potential rental opportunities.

Despite some rather unhelpful neighbours trying to derail our clients project (twice), we have now secured planning permission and conditions approved for their site in Aldham.

It’s taken many months (18 months) of hard work, perseverance and negotiation with the local planners in order to win them over. Now we can say it’s all been worth it, much to the relief and gratitude of our very happy client!

With an aging population it is always an emotional challenge on how best to look after your elderly parents. When they’re too old to remain living at home, yet not ready or don’t want to go into a care home, a great halfway house is to build an annexe in your garden for them to come and live with you. That way you can help them more with day-to-day tasks, but still maintain a degree of independence for both you and them. This is what we’ve recently done to help one of our clients in Wormingford, Colchester.

When a client sends you comments from the neighbourhood…

I just thought I’d let you know that a neighbour called at my house this afternoon to congratulate me on what he called “the best looking property in this road”!
