Room Additions
Feeling cramped for space in your home but don’t want to move? Building a room addition might be a better option for you. A room addition is a great way to increase a home’s live-ability, square footage, and appreciation.
Adding an extra room has many benefits, including:
– Increased home value
– More space for relaxation
– Greater comfort and functionality
– Added luxury appliances and fixtures
A well constructed new room addition should look natural, like it was part of the original plans. And this is exactly how we approach these types of projects. Whether you’re looking for a guest room, nursery, office or playroom, we can work with you to plan a space that suits your needs and exceeds all of your expectations.
Accessory Dwelling Unit
Also known as the granny flat or in-law addition, these additions are usually converted garages, or brand new additions to an existing home. This standalone unit usually has a separate entrance, full kitchen, bedroom and bath and is designed to be fully equipped and function as an independent unit. With all the amenities of a private apartment, they can give an aging parent the privacy they need or comfortably accommodate guests for an extended stay. Some people use it as a way to generate revenue by renting through places like AirBnB.
ADU’s are growing in popularity here in California. They’re a great way to offset mortgage cost and property taxes. Depending on permitting and zoning requirements, you can choose to convert a detached garage or build from scratch. Create a guest house, retreat suite, private office, art project workshop or even a “she shed” like the one we built here, for a homeowner in Dixon.
Kitchen and Bath Additions
Kitchen Addition: Open kitchens are the newest trend and offer a fully functional food preparation space as well as allow more room for entertainment.
A kitchen addition is the perfect solution for those looking to integrate state of the art appliances, add storage space and cabinets, and open up the floor plan if its feeling too small.
Bathroom Addition: If you find yourself fighting for time in the shower every morning, an extra bathroom can make bathroom battles a thing of the past. A well designed bathroom not only brings you more comfort and practicality, it also boosts the value of your home significantly. Some of the options to consider are:
- Double sink vanities
- Modern soaking tub
- Shower benches
- Upgraded flooring
- Lighted mirrors
Bump Out Room Additions
A bump-out is a micro addition, usually adding about 100 square feet to an existing room. This small upgrade can have a huge impact on a home’s footprint. Adding a bump-out room addition is a great way to make your home’s interior more functional and won’t cost as much as a full blown room addition.
Some ideas for bump out additions:
– Expand the master bath
– As a nook area off the family room
– Add a bay window with a window seat
– Add more space in the kitchen for a pantry or an island
Multipurpose Room Additions
With more people working remotely, home offices are becoming more and more popular. If you work from home, having a comfortable, dedicated work space to call your own can increase your productivity. They’re cheaper and more convenient than renting a commercial space.
The terms living room, family room, flex room, multipurpose room and recreation room can all be synonymous. Whether you are looking for a living room makeover or need more space for your family to enjoy activities together, we can transform your existing area into a relaxing and practical place you’ll enjoy for years to come.
From the flooring to the windows, our team will create a comprehensive plan that’s specifically suited to your needs. So whether it be a game room for the kids, a home theater setup for binge watching movies or that open floor plan you’ve always dreamed of, you’ll have a living space that’s perfect for hanging out with the friends and family.
