I am planning to convert my integral single garage to a furnished studio apartment with ensuite, and a kitchen area. French doors to the side will provide private entrance and a small garden area.
There is a door at the back which links to a shared utility room and our own kitchen door. No locks will be placed on internal doors. I will clean apartment and change sheets. Occupier will buy own food to cook in the apartment.
With shared laundry facilities, and access to our house permissable (though not necessary) can I treat this person as a lodger, rather than a tenant? I want to be able to evict someone without any problems. A tenant would have rights to stay, which could mean a court order to evict, and stress to my family.
Please can anyone advise, thank you.
