Which Type of Home Addition Is Ideal for You?

Home additions can expand your living space if you have a growing family. They can also make your home more appealing and increase its overall value. Moreover, additions can be a more cost-effective option than moving. 

A home improvement expert shares additions you should consider depending on your needs. 

Garage Conversion

A garage conversion is ideal for homeowners who wish to have more flexible or hobby spaces. It may also cost less than building a room from scratch since the structure already exists. You’ll just need to install heating and cooling equipment, sheetrock, and flooring. 

However, garages are often located far from other living spaces. If you have a two-care garage, consider turning it into a studio apartment with its own entrance. You can also turn this space as a home theater, office, or a children’s playroom. 

Room Addition

A bump-out or room addition is a single room structure built into the side of the house. It can be made into a bathroom, bedroom, and other single-function spaces. This addition often requires laying down a new roofline or employing flat roofing. Keep in mind that bump-outs should still comply with building codes, permits, and inspections. 

Sunroom

Sunrooms can be built in different parts of your home and can be used in various ways. With this addition, you can comfortably enjoy the outdoors all-year-round. They can also be made into a playroom for your kids, studio for artists, and home office. You can also fill a sunroom with plants to build a conservatory or add a hot tub to make a home spa. It’s also a great place to dine and entertain guests.
