Granny Annexes FAQ

What exactly is a Granny Annexe?
A Granny Annexe is a self-contained living space usually located in the garden of a main residence. It is designed to provide independent living for elderly relatives or adult children, featuring all the comforts of a standard home including sleeping, living, and bathroom areas.
Are these annexes warm enough for elderly relatives to live in year-round?
Yes, absolutely. At Timber Lodge 365, our annexes are built using high-density timber and come with comprehensive insulation packages. Combined with double-glazed windows and doors, they offer excellent thermal retention, ensuring a cozy environment even during the peak of winter.
Do I need planning permission for a Granny Annexe in Ireland?
Because a Granny Annexe is intended for permanent habitation and usually contains plumbing and kitchen facilities, it typically requires planning permission. We recommend consulting with your local planning office to ensure your project complies with all regional building regulations.
Can the layout be customized for accessibility?
Yes. We understand that accessibility is often a priority for Granny Annexes. Many of our designs can be adapted to include wider door frames or specific internal layouts that make daily life easier and safer for people with limited mobility.
How long does the construction process take?
One of the main benefits of a timber annexe is the speed of assembly compared to a traditional brick extension. Once the foundation is ready, our professional installation team can usually complete the main structure within 7 to 12 working days, depending on the model size.
