Practical Spaces, Seamless Fit
In Old Bar, lifestyle is relaxed and spaces work hardest when they are simple, durable, and bright. We design kitchens that cook well, bathrooms that are easy to maintain, and living areas that open naturally to outdoor zones. Entry paths, lighting, and storage are planned for everyday routines, while glazing, shading, and ventilation keep the interior comfortable through the seasons. The finished granny flat feels like a natural extension of the site — private, efficient, and quietly sophisticated.
Why choose a granny flat in Old Bar?
Many Old Bar properties have the room to add an independent dwelling that supports multigenerational living or creates a guest hideaway near the coast. A well-designed flat offers privacy with proximity, allowing family connection while maintaining daily independence. It also adapts gracefully as needs change — from relatives staying longer, to hybrid working, to visiting friends. The right layout balances ease of access, outlook, and storage so the space remains useful and welcoming for years.
What layouts work well on compact Old Bar blocks?
Start with clarity: a combined living–dining zone, efficient galley or L-shaped kitchen, one or two bedrooms, and a bathroom with a logical circulation loop. Sliding doors, built-in joinery, and laundry niches conserve space. Align windows to frame greenery and draw in daylight. Where possible, add a small deck or patio — a modest outdoor threshold expands the feel of the interior, turning a compact plan into a calm, livable home that never feels cramped.
How do you make a small flat feel larger?
Prioritise ceiling height, natural light, and sightlines. Continuous flooring and restrained finishes create visual flow. Use integrated storage (under bench seats, bed bases, and full-height wardrobes) to reduce clutter. Pocket or sliding doors free up floor area. Consider a simple palette with one warm accent to keep things composed. Outdoors, a screened courtyard or pergola extends living space and gives the flat a private “room” in the garden without increasing the footprint.
Can a granny flat double as a studio or home office?
Yes. Many Old Bar households want a space that flexes between hosting family and quiet work. Zoning the plan helps: place the living zone and entry together for visitors, and reserve a bedroom or multipurpose room with good task lighting for focused days. Robust data points, generous power outlets, and acoustic treatment make the flat productive Monday to Friday and restful on weekends.
