If you have a great deal of extra land around your property, there is a good chance that you have a potential goldmine just going to waste, and one that is merely taking up a lot of your time to maintain.
However, selling the land on will no doubt leave you unable to have any say about exactly what is built right next door to you and, as such, it can be very risky to sell land on if you like the unspoiled views your home currently affords you.
However, there are plenty of ways to keep the land you have, make money out of it, remove the requirement for ongoing maintenance and maintain flexibility all at the same time. By building garden studios, you can rent out space on your property as a beautiful holiday retreat, not only allowing you to make money from the rent, but also ensuring that the garden retreat you build is cost-effective, environmentally friendly and, most importantly for some, extremely attractive.
Not only does this mean that you will be removing a large amount of lawn space and in turn reducing the amount of time you have to spend tending to your garden, but it also gives you considerable flexibility in terms of how and when you make money, with the potential returns adding up very quickly and offering you your own outhouse for friends and family to stay in to boot.
These eco homes can be designed to your own specification to ensure that you can make them an attractive a proposition for guests, whether they be paying or friends, and ensure that you too can utilise the space when it is not being rented.
