NEED EXTRA SPACE?
This might seem like a silly question with the average British home
now half the size it was a century ago; however, if you’re aware of the
average cost of a home extension, there is no doubt that creating space
in your home is becoming an extremely expensive commodity.
What tends to get overlooked is the space you
have right outside your back door. Gardens are
now being increasingly seen as an extension to
the home, as opposed to an outdated ‘just stick
a shed at the end of garden’ philosophy.
The modernisation of the garden building has
propelled it from the dark, dingy depths of the
web-infested shed, to the bright exuberant heights
of a modern garden room. Garden buildings are
now so much more than a storage solution for
your garden tools or a hiding place for ageing
garden furniture. They are a tailor-made, purpose
built space to meet your every desire.
rain or shine, hot or cold, creating the total outdoor
space experience.
It’s not just homeworkers that are benefitting
from such features; other popular choices include
the traditional summerhouse, home gym, games
room, ‘Man Cave’, ‘She-Shed’ – the possibilities
are endless.
The best thing is all of this can be achieved at a
fraction of the cost of an average home extension,
constructed by expert installers generally within
two days and the majority of buildings do not
require any planning permission.
With the popularity towards homeworking
continuing, the desire for extra space is not just
a want, it’s rapidly becoming a necessity. Working
from home is no longer confined to traditional
office-based occupations; you can see why the
advancement in design, choice and utilities with
modern garden buildings has provided the perfect
solution for many people looking to solve their
lack of space conundrum.
