This is great that you're looking at homes with annexes because we all know that I'm going to end up, in a human carport, in whichever Devonshire or Los Angeles neighbourhood you retire to

Also why does the Scottish House have a kitchen inside a cave? We're they forced to improvise because they cut down all the wood in the Hebrides for wall panelling?

The Romney House could be delightful but I find their taste in lighting ...sinister to say the least. Between that enormous fluorescent spider squatting on the floor lamp and the Dementor they are using as a chandelier, this is not a house conducive to mental we'll being.

Who knows what other horrors lurk there? A string of cockroaches being used as fairy lights? A departed pet transformed into a desk lamp?

I would not put anything past them.

Our house came with what the previous owners called the Granny Flat. I don’t think it would have made your cut however.

It was a pebble dashed, asbestos roofed garage/shed. It had electricity so we have variously used it to house the chest freezer they also left us, we had a treadmill in there during lockdown and lots of storage of random kids’ stuff. But when we had our electricity boards redone a few years ago it turned out to have been wired up by someone with no electrical training and could have killed us at any moment - it wasn’t earthed - so we felt very lucky to have survived two years of treadmill runs on it 🙈
