“The annexe is everything we could have wished for and more as it caters for all possible needs in our twilight years – giving us independence, and at the same time, being able to spend time with our family.”
Rodney Warboys
Designed for the future
After living in their family home since 1982, Rodney and his wife Christine needed a solution that would allow them to stay in the place they loved while adapting to changing needs. Their bespoke single-storey annexe provides a comfortable, accessible home designed for later life, eliminating the challenges of stairs while offering a bright, modern living space where they can continue enjoying their independence.
A place proudly called home
Named Tiara, the annexe represents a new home chapter, but giving peace of mind for the whole family. Thoughtfully designed and built within the family property, it allows Rodney and Christine to remain surrounded by familiar surroundings, treasured memories and the community they have been part of for over four decades, without compromising on comfort or style.
Keeping family close
With one of their daughters moving into the main house, the annexe creates the perfect balance between independence and support. Rodney, Christine and their two border collies can continue enjoying their daily walks and active role in the local community, knowing that family is always nearby.
The arrangement also provides reassurance for the future, ensuring care, companionship and familiar faces remain close at hand for years to come.
