Granny in the Annex
Dear Readers,
I am looking to convert my double detached garage into a annex for the purpose of renting for approx £600 PCM, the cost for conversion would be approx £20,000 which I am looking to pay for with savings.
I have a mortgage of approx £100,000 on the main residence. My question is would my best option be to rent the Annex under the rent a room scheme or would I be able to rent the annex & claim back any tax due against the interest which is paid on the mortgage for the main residence?
Thanks Stephanie![]()

And full planning consent, separate utilities, possible parking space, somewhere for the bins. Basically a new dwelling.
