The Nachtegaal
The most spacious, with a covered patio of fifteen metres.
The Nachtegaal is the most spacious version in the range: 82.5 m² gross on external dimensions of 11 by 7.50 metres, of which fifteen square metres is covered patio under the continuous roof.
That patio is what sets it apart. A resident who spends a lot of time at home can sit outside there even when it rains, and over a day that makes more difference than a few extra square metres of living room.
Inside, the kitchen and the living room are separate, there is a guest room besides the bedroom, and at 6.3 m² the bathroom has room for a turning circle. Here too: at this size a permit application is the rule rather than the exception, so start with the check for your address.
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.
