You deserve to have the home you have always wanted. Whether your home is smaller than you would like or your family has expanded faster than you thought it would, home additions can ensure that there is plenty of room and that you have a desirable flow to your house. Working with an architect can provide you with all of the space you need in various areas. It's important to understand what some of the popular additions are so that you can figure out whether you want to incorporate them into your own remodeling designs. An Expanded Kitchen If you look on the market, gourmet kitchens are one of the hottest trends right now. If you have a small kitchen, you can talk to an architect about home additions in the kitchen. You may be able to knock down a wall or even expand outside of your current home in order to increase the size of your kitchen. This will give you the opportunity to have the dream kitchen you have always wanted without putting your home on the market and buying a new one. Mother-In-Law Quarters Has your mother decided to come and live with you? Mother-in-law quarters can be added to your home or added behind your home based upon the size of your lot. These quarters are going to be a smaller version of what you have in your home. It can be considered a studio or a one or two bedroom home. It will have a bedroom, living space, a bathroom, and even a kitchen or kitchenette. These home additions are quite popular, especially when you want to be able to take care of parents who are no longer capable of living on their own. A Finished Basement You may have been meaning to get around to finishing the basement for a long time. This is one of the most popular home additions because it is space that you already have – and with a little work, you can turn it into additional living quarters. It is possible to run plumbing and electric downstairs to ensure that you are able to add a bathroom, extra bedrooms, and even a kitchen. An Upstairs Believe it or not, you can actually have a second story added to your single-story home. The second story can be just as large as the bottom story, virtually doubling the square footage of your home. You can work with an architect that will create the necessary designs and help you find a construction team that will carry out the project. While you will not be able to live at home while the work is being done, as soon as you are given the green light to move back in, you will have twice as much space. Think about all of the home additions you can have. No matter what you want, you can have it. Even if you don’t think you have the ability to grow, a talented architect can always figure out new ways to make more room.
