Claire and Andy have designed a comfortable home for their growing family, with a self-contained ‘grannexe’ for Albert.



The house features light wood floors and large windows throughout, giving a bright and airy feel.



On the ground floor, there is an open-plan family room/kitchen/dining room and a large family bathroom.  This floor is decorated in neutral tones, so that it can be dressed up with different colour schemes for different seasonal celebrations.

   

To the other side of the hallway and well away from the noisy children is Albert’s flat, with a sitting room, kitchenette, bedroom and cloakroom.  Albert has decorated his space with leftover wallpaper from his old house (waste not, want not) and has furnished it with treasured possessions.  He finds it appallingly wasteful that his daughter and son-in-law spend good money on decorations that are only used for a few weeks each year, so he has appropriated some out-of-season décor – there’s no sense in spending money on electricity when there are unused candles lying around.





Upstairs, there is a master bedroom with en-suite shower room and bedrooms for the two children, plus a nursery for the forthcoming addition to the family.  All the bedrooms are decorated in favourite colours, while the landing,a light and open space with room for work or hobbies, continues the neutral theme from downstairs.



In the basement are a carport with parking spaces for two cars, a gym and a large storage space for all those decorations.


 
Behind the house is a small but productive kitchen garden, with plenty of room left for children to run around in.
