Abbotts said that this feature offers “plenty of space and potential for multigenerational living or Airbnb use”. It has been designed so that the first floor can be used as its own luxury apartment if desired.

Abbotts notes that there is scope to increase the size of the outdoor space, as the garden area could be increased by removing the ground floor lean-to extension, subject to the relevant permissions.
