This could explain why living arrangements are evolving, as people adapt to new ways of living.
In an era where families are seeking flexible, multi-generational living solutions, granny annexes are emerging as an ideal option.
These self-contained spaces, either attached to or separate from the main house, provide a stylish and practical way to keep loved ones close while preserving independence.
And now, eBay is making this option more accessible than ever.
Currently listed on the platform is a two-bedroom granny annexe that fits perfectly at the back of your garden.
Designed with the unpredictable British weather in mind, the annexe is damp-proof and features double glazing.
Even better, it’s priced at just £750 per square metre.
The eBay seller describes the building as “perfect” for those looking to create a “luxury cabin, annexe, or mobile home.”
The kit includes all the essentials to ensure your project is energy-efficient, helping to reduce energy bills in the long run.
Measuring 12 metres in length by 5 metres in width, with an internal ceiling height of approximately 2.3 to 2.4 metres, the annexe can be customised to suit your specific needs.

“Certainly a very good seller, the product arrived in good condition.”
With its affordability, practicality, and energy-saving features, this granny annexe offers a modern solution to multi-generational living, proving that adapting to changing circumstances doesn’t mean compromising on style or comfort.
According to Kingsley Smith Solicitors, if the annexe is treated as simply another room of the house (known as ‘incidental’) – it may be built under permitted development rights.
This means you won’t need planning permission for a granny annexe in most cases.
However, the building still needs to follow the rules for outbuildings – if not, you may need to apply for permission.
