The Lepelaar
Separate kitchen and living room, with a guest room as well.
The Lepelaar differs from the rest of the range in that the kitchen and the living room are two separate rooms rather than one open living space. If that is what you are used to, it feels like an ordinary house rather than a care setting.
Besides the bedroom of 11.6 m², there is a guest room of 4.4 m², which can be used for visitors who stay the night or as a hobby room. The home also has a separate toilet next to the bathroom, a hallway and a small storage room, so everything an independent home needs is on the floor plan.
With external dimensions of 10.50 by 6.50 metres, this version does need space. Do the permit check for your address first.
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.
