See the Space in Your Next Leicester Home
It can be really disappointing when you’re looking around a great Leicester house and you start worrying about whether or not it offers enough space for you, your family and your belongings.
Do not discount this type of property too soon, however, as there may be a viable solution that could deliver the space you need and could also add value to your property.
Build a Conservatory
If there is outside space available, a conservatory could be the ideal solution for adding more room. It could become a new dining room, playroom or relaxation space, and conservatories can add between seven and 15 per cent to the property’s value.
Convert the Garage
If the house you like does not have enough outside space or you do not want to lose the garden that is there, consider the potential of converting other areas of the property.
A conversion of an attached garage, for example, could boost the price of the property by as much as 15 per cent while giving you space to create anything from a small dining area to a downstairs toilet.
Just make sure that you do not lose parking space that you need, however, as this could inconvenience you and put some buyers off if you decide to move again in the future.
Loft Conversion
If you want an extra bedroom, a games room or just more storage, a loft conversion could be the answer. This is not likely to be a cheap option, but it could add up to 12 per cent to the house’s value.
Create More Storage
Clever wardrobes or creating a cupboard under the stairs can really boost storage in a house. A garden shed could also free up space by giving you somewhere to store everything from bikes to your barbecue. Additional storage will then allow you to use space in the property for other things.
Repurpose Rooms
When you’re viewing a property, try not to be put off by what the current owners are using their rooms for. Look beyond what is there now to see the potential in the property and how you could make the space work for you and your family. You could convert that unwanted office into another bathroom, for example, or knock down the wall between the kitchen and dining room to make a much more suitable room for your lifestyle.
