Fiona, also known as Grandma Fi, made the move from Edinburgh to Letchworth to be closer to her daughter and granddaughter. Embracing a new chapter in her life, her annexe has become a bright and cheerful retreat, where she enjoys her independence while staying connected. With its welcoming atmosphere and cosy design, the space reflects her vibrant personality and brings warmth to her new surroundings.

It’s amazing what we’ve been able to achieve. To be closer to my family is everything, it’s the best choice I could have made.

Fiona’s Joyful Home
Working part-time for the NHS, Grandma Fi finds fulfilment in her career while also volunteering in the local community. These activities not only keep her engaged but also help her build friendships and foster connections in her new town. She loves serving a purpose, sharing her skills and experience, and becoming an active member of the community she now calls home.
Her personal touch
The annexe itself is a testament to her creativity and love for life. Grandma Fi has decorated her space with a bright-coloured sofa, favourite trinkets and lovingly displayed precious photographs of family moments.
A space for hobbies
Whether she’s whipping up treats for family or sharing her delicious creations with visitors, baking is another passion for Grandma Fi. Her annexe is not just a place to live; it’s a vibrant sanctuary that nurtures her independence, celebrates her passions, and keeps her connected to the people she loves.
