Peter Hill
A decision built around family care
Peter made the decision to purchase a property with a clear purpose in mind: to ensure his daughter, who is a wheelchair user, could live comfortably with full‑time care, while he remained close enough to support her whenever needed. Building an annexe in the garden gave Peter a home of his own, offering independence and privacy, while keeping family just a few steps away. It’s a solution that allows him to be present, supportive and connected, without compromising on his own space or way of life.
A home that flows naturally in the garden
Set within a lush, green garden in the coastal town of Deal, Peter’s annexe feels like a natural part of its surroundings. The natural oak exterior, pitched roof and garden‑facing doors help it blend effortlessly into the landscape, while the surrounding planting and lawn soften the building and connect it to the neighbouring homes. With space to sit outside, enjoy the fresh air and watch the garden change through the seasons, the annexe feels settled, established and very much part of the local community.
A space that tells a thousand stories
Inside, the annexe is beautifully furnished with artwork, keepsakes and carefully chosen pieces that reflect Peter’s life and interests. From framed prints of historic moments (including the Battle of Britain and Battle of the Saintes) to subtle nods to his career in the drinks industry, every item tells part of his story. These personal touches give the space warmth and character, making it feel deeply lived‑in and uniquely his. Whether relaxing indoors, tending the garden, or spending time with the family, the annexe supports a lifestyle that balances independence and connection.
