When lockdown struck, it filled Christine with a sense of loneliness she’d never felt before. From that moment, the Warner family decided to bring everyone together but in a way where everyone keeps their independence and privacy. This annexe has brought the entire family together for all the moments that matter, no matter how big or small.

“I just really love my annexe. What you get is what you see and if you can live with your family then it’s perfect.”
Christine Warner
A home built around ease
With a holiday home in Norfolk, Christine is used to living in similar structures. She wanted a home that would make everyday living feel effortless and like you are on holiday. The single‑storey layout, excellent insulation and warm, efficient heating create a sense of comfort that’s noticeable from the moment you step inside. The vaulted ceiling in the main living space adds height and openness.
Shaped with personal style
Christine had a clear vision for her interior: bright and simplistically modern. Large doors show a lovely view of the garden and she has embraced the opportunity to create something that pairs naturally with her daughter’s wonderful garden. Working closely with the design team, she has shaped a space that feels both contemporary and personal.
A lifestyle that brings family closer
One of the greatest joys of annexe living for Christine has been the balance it brings to family life. Living just a few steps away from her daughter and granddaughters means she can be part of their daily world, helping when needed, sharing moments together and staying closely connected, all while still enjoying the independence of her own private space.
