A good quality annexe can be a godsend if relatives are moving in with you. Richard and Amanda White created a luxurious one at their spacious Kent home.

As granny annexes go, the large and luxurious right-hand side of this lovely house near West Malling is one in a million.

The magnificent addition to the stylish property was the work of Richard and Amanda White, who needed the extra space for Amanda’s parents. So from the entrance hallway you can either step left, into the immaculate four-bedroom main house with stylish arched windows, or turn right, into the equally smart two-bedroom annexe.

The work involved major redevelopment of the original house’s garage and no expense was spared in making both sides of the house into comfortable and contemporary homes.

Seven years after the Whites moved in, the house is on the market and would be ideal for an extended family.

The main house has double glazed sliding doors to front and double glazed windows to side. There is a tiled floor with underfloor heating and concealed gas fired boiler.

The kitchen/breakfast room has underfloor heating and French doors. There is an inset five zone induction hob, electric oven and combination microwave, an integrated washer/dryer and a large fridge and freezer.

The master bedroom has an arched door to the balcony. The room also has an en-suite shower. The second bedroom also has an en-suite and there are two further bedrooms plus family bathroom.

In the annexe, the kitchen/breakfast room has underfloor heating,integrated washing machine and an inset induction hob, plus an electric oven and combination microwave.

The annexe is an open-plan living space leading to a conservatory. The two bedrooms are built into the roof. There is a bathroom with a tiled floor.

Cobblers End is on the side of a beautifully landscaped plot that is approached via a long shingled driveway that culminates in a circular turning area, a further parking area and a garage.

Its proximity to the motorway network and a choice of rail links to the capital make it an ideal area to commute from.
