A SPARE BEDROOM

People looking for extra space for the growing family can get a spare bedroom during the home additions project. Siblings can share a bedroom when they are young and minor, but when they grow up, they search for their own space and in this situation, a spare bedroom can be very handy.

ADDITIONAL BATHROOM

A spare bedroom is incomplete without a bathroom because no one would appreciate someone coming to his room at midnight just for peeing. This bathroom could be connected to the new bedroom or it can also be a stand-alone area to use commonly.

A HOME OFFICE

The pandemic that started in 2019 made most of us work from home and now companies have allowed people to work from home, as it helps them a lot in cost cutting. As a part of the second story addition, you can get your home office built where you can work with full focus and engage in video conferencing and webinars. It's important to allow adequate natural light during the day and arrange artificial lighting in adequate quantities for the night. You can also get plenty of shelving and similar places constructed for storing books, equipment etc. All this will enhance the functionality, if they are coupled with an ergonomically designed desk. 

As a part of the home additions project, you can also think about improving outdoor living and for this, get an outdoor kitchen and outdoor entertainment area constructed. Outdoor entertaining areas are particularly more useful as they don't just enhance the resale value, but also create a comfortable and engaging space for relaxing, socialising and spending quality time with the family.
