It can be difficult to decide whether you want a bigger home or if you want your garden to remain the same size. There are solutions for getting the best of both.
Are you considering a home addition? You want more space indoors, but you don’t wish to reduce your outdoor space. There are many ways to get the most out of your garden without sacrificing your house.
The UK is facing a wildlife crisis. According to Thomson Environmental Consultants’ research in 2024, there is a 19% decrease in wildlife in the UK. 1 in 6 species are threatened with extinction. How can we make the most of our property without affecting our garden and British wildlife?
Use what’s available indoors
You can feel like you have more space by renovating and improving your existing spaces. Mirrors and wall-mounted fixtures are two ways to make appear larger.
Your garage can be used for a new purpose.
Your garage is just a place to store stuff. What’s in the garage? Could it be stored in your shed instead? More and more homeowners are converting their garages into utility spaces, gyms or home offices. You don’t have to use your garden to extend your home.
Loft conversions
A loft conversion can add another bedroom to your home.
If your loft is unoccupied, conversions can be a great way to increase the space in your home without taking up valuable garden space. As you will be converting your loft, you will have to adhere to the rules for development. For Loft Conversions Exeter, visit www.silverferndevelopments.co.uk/exeter-builders/loft-conversions
Build up but not out
The only difference between a loft conversion and adding another floor to your home is that you will have more space. Your garden, however, will be affected by the increased shadow.
This will require you to get permission for a new build. Addition of a second floor can provide your home with many benefits, including additional bedrooms, bathrooms and office space.
