5 Signs That You Need a Home Addition

The familiar feeling of coziness and comfort within your home can become cramped and congested as your needs change over time. Whether it’s a growing family, a blossoming hobby, or a desire for a dedicated workspace, a home addition can be an enticing solution to increase your living space. However, before you start knocking down walls, assessing whether a home addition is the right answer is important.

Here are some key signs that an addition might be the perfect way to transform your home.

You’re Running Out of Space

If you are considering building a home addition, you are likely running out of space in your current home. You might need another bedroom with a baby on the way, your kitchen might be getting cramped with new appliances, or you might have always wanted an office space.

No matter your reason, determine if you can find more space by redesigning your floor plan. If you can move furniture around and change the functionality of your existing space, you’ll save thousands of dollars. If you genuinely need more square footage, then it is time to build an addition.

Redesigning the Existing Floorplan Isn’t Practical

It’s common to want to transform your existing floor plan into something that meets the expectations of a modern household, but this isn’t always practical. If you have an older home, you may want to keep the architectural styles that give it character. In that case, home additions make a lot of sense. You benefit from a modern space and don’t have to choose between function and aesthetics.

You Don’t Want to Move

If your current home is too small, it’s easy to imagine moving to a new one. But moving is a complicated process; sometimes, you don’t want to uproot your family or settle into a new neighborhood. If you love your neighbors, the schools, or the community, a home addition is a reasonable alternative to moving.

Your Home Needs Updates

Is your home stuck in the 1970s or 1980s? Building a home addition is a good excuse to overhaul your home’s entire aesthetic. Incorporate more modern-looking materials, neutral colors, and timeless textures that will appeal to all generations of homebuyers.

You Want to Boost Property Value

A home addition can add tremendous value to your home when it is time to market it. Adding an extra room or two or expanding the size of your kitchens or bathrooms, will instantly upgrade your home’s appeal to prospective buyers.

Depending on your neighborhood, you could potentially make back most, if not all, of your renovation investments.
