Oak-framed buildings are naturally light and spacious, making them ideal for a creative studio. Whether you’re an artist, musician, or writer, a bespoke annex offers the perfect sanctuary for your creative pursuits.


6. Children’s Playroom or Teen Hangout
Looking for a dedicated space for your kids or teenagers to enjoy? Durable and long-lasting, oak provides a robust framework, while bespoke designs allow you to incorporate features like seating areas, gaming stations, or even an outdoor terrace. It’s a perfect way to give kids their own space while maintaining peace and order inside the main house.

Why not turn your oak-framed annex into a revenue-generating rental property? Whether as a long-term rental or a short-term holiday let, an annex can be an attractive option for tenants or guests. The timeless appeal of oak-framed architecture, combined with modern comforts, makes it an attractive and unique rental proposition.
