9 years ago we were looking for a house with a granny annexe so that we could look after two frail parents and our two teenage boys in one place. After a year's search across all of London we found a large Victorian detached property in East Dulwich that we converted to create a 5 bed, 2 bath house with a separate (own front door) 2 bed garden flat with kitchen, living room and bathroom.
Now with boys in their twenties and parents passed away we're looking to sell but cannot find an agent that specialises in this sort of property. Most insist on marketing it as a 5 bed house and hide in the "blurb" the extra space and flexibility the additional garden flat offers. We had thought there would be a natural market for such properties given that each generation must find the "sandwich" issues of looking after children and frail parents made easier if all share the same property whilst retaining individual privacy.
So QUESTION: Does anyone know of agents / websites that specialise in this sort of property or do you have any other suggestions as to where / how we might market this house that is now too large for the two of us?
