Common Types of Home Additions

IN-Law Suite

Multi generational households have been on the rise for a number of years in the United States. Careful planning is required in order to successfully accommodate having your parents or in-laws living with you. A home addition as in-law suite that has a separate entrance and its own bathroom facilities can be a great solution. It provides privacy for everyone and allows close proximity for aging parents who might want a little extra help. You might even want to create a kitchenette in the plan so that your elder houseguests can have some meals independently.

Attic Conversion

Your house’s attic is another space that’s easy to overlook and can often be the easiest home addition location. While your attic may not be a great place for older family members, it can be a suitable bedroom area for a teen. You could turn it into a home office that’s removed from the noise and distractions of the house. However you decide to finish that space, you’ll want to consider insulation, electrical needs (including lighting), and possibly plumbing. If you’re having a hard time imagining your attic as usable space, you may want to talk to your builder/remodeler. He or she is used to seeing potential where you perhaps don’t.

Room Specific Bump-outs

It seems obvious that bigger families require more space. But it’s not just more bedrooms that you need. Spaces that you share together – such as your kitchen or your family room – need to be able to handle increased traffic. Sometimes the solution isn’t just more space, but space that is better designed to meet your needs. That may involve moving (or removing) a wall to create a better flow. Obviously, that’s not something you’ll want to try on your own, and an experienced builder/remodeler will be able to tell you which walls you can move and which you can’t. Your builder can also help you maximize whatever space you have available. ere.
