1-Bed Modular Pod — Kill, Co. Kildare

Gavin Watts wanted a self-contained living space in his garden in Kill, Co. Kildare — somewhere a family member could live independently, without the cost and disruption of a traditional extension. He chose a one-bedroom modular pod from New Chapter Homes: a bedroom, a bathroom with shower, a dining area and a sitting room, all fitted and finished in our factory before it ever left the production line. On delivery day our team coordinated with Flynn Crane Hire to lift the finished unit from its transport flatrack and lower it precisely onto the prepared base. The photos here capture that lift in progress — the pod still wrapped in its protective film, with our installer guiding the crane from the roof and the unit steadied on orange lifting straps. Within hours the pod was set down, unwrapped and connected, ready for use. For Gavin it meant genuinely independent living space delivered in a single day — and for us, another reminder of why we build the way we do: precision in the factory, speed on site, and a finished home that feels anything but temporary.
