A typical Northeast Ohio winter creates cabin fever in most families by the time Spring starts to show signs of arriving. For growing families, however, those months of being indoors may have brought you to the realization your house is just too small.
Moving can be a difficult decision when you like your neighborhood, your school district and everything else about your home. So, don’t move, and consider an addition instead! Expanding your floor plan off the back, side, or over a garage can be extremely cost effective when you consider the monetary and emotional expense of moving.
When families outgrow their homes, the biggest issues usually are a lack of living space, being one bedroom short, or the need for another bathroom. An addition is a great way to accomplish one or more of these needs. The key is planning.
Talk to a builder who has design experience and consider several options before making a decision. Does your family like to congregate over food prep and snacking? Expand your living space by extending a back wall to enlarge your kitchen and create that extra gathering space. If individual time is the issue, add a family room on the back so your family members have multiple places to gather or relax with a book or television show.
Too few or too small bathrooms can create morning and evening battles. Design a master suite by extending your footprint into your side yard, leaving that hall bath available to others. Expand over an attached garage to create the extra bedroom and bathroom you need.
Carefully designed additions can add significant value to your home without breaking your budget. When you consider the value and peace of mind that comes with being able to stay in a home you love, it can be the perfect decision for your family.
