Yes that is the plan just thaught id post on here just in case someone has done something similar and could give me some advice

Hi Thank you well thats just it, we could never sell that, the home does not have direct access to the back garden so it would always be reliant on the main house, furthermore all the utilities would run from the main house

Thank you, could you elaborate as to why

The diagr above shows the house plan with the longer section being the rear garden
