The Albatros 70
The most spacious in the collection, with a living space across the full width.
The Albatros 70 is the most spacious model in the collection. With external dimensions of 14 by 5 metres, there is room for two full bedrooms, a bathroom with a separate toilet and a living space that runs across the full width of the home.
The layout follows the same logic as the other models: sleeping and bathroom on one side, living, cooking and dining on the other. Because the home is longer, the living area has room for a large dining table and a separate seating area, without the two getting in each other's way.
For those who do not want to compromise
This model is intended for two residents, or for someone moving from a family house who brings a lot with them. Everything is on one level and step-free, with short routes between bedroom, bathroom and living room.
The same architecture, more glass
Here too, the large glazed sections define the character. The extra length means more façade and therefore more contact with the garden. Warm timber façade sections, dark lines and the option of a sedum roof make the home an architectural addition to the property rather than a unit at the back of the garden.
Check the space on your property
At this size, the question is not only whether you like the home, but above all whether it fits. What may stand permit-free in a back garden depends on the size of your property and on the buildings already there. So do the permit check for your address first; at 70 m², a permit application is the rule rather than the exception.
Dimensions and layout
Finish and comfort
Often not. Under certain conditions a garden home (mantelzorgwoning) may stand permit-free in the back garden, including when the building is ground-level and stays within the dimensions of the Besluit bouwwerken leefomgeving (the Dutch Buildings Decree). Your municipality can set additional rules, so we check that in advance. Do the permit check first: it gives you a clear answer for your address within a few minutes.
Do I need a permit for a garden home (mantelzorgwoning)? →The price on this page is for the home itself, including transport. On top of that come the foundation, the utility connections and any groundwork. What that costs depends on your garden: the distance to the meter cupboard and access for the lorry are the main factors.
Allow a few months between order and handover: the home is built in our own production facility while the foundation is prepared on your plot. The installation itself takes one day.
How long does it take to build a garden home? →The home stands on its own foundation; which type depends on the ground. Water, electricity and sewerage are connected to the existing services of the main house. We measure this during the site visit, so you know in advance what it will cost.
Yes. The home is built as a single unit and can be lifted again with a crane, for example to another garden or back to us. At the new location, the rules of that municipality then apply again.
In most cases the home may then not remain as an independent dwelling and the original situation has to be restored, unless the municipality decides otherwise. In practice, the home is then moved, sold or taken back. We also buy back our own homes.
Very little. It is a newly built home with modern materials; in the first years, maintenance is limited to checking the façade, the roof and the building services.
