If you are looking for ways to really up the value of your home, there are several things people generally think of adding. Whether you want to increase the value of your home to hopefully increase a future sale price, or you simply want to add value to your daily living experience, there are definitely some additions you can make.
Some people choose to add things like a pool or outdoor space (like a deck or patio), and some people choose to update rooms that may be showing their age (like a new kitchen or bathroom). However, one popular addition that is greatly appealing is a sunroom. Here are why sunrooms are popular house additions:
Additional Living Space
The main benefit of a sunroom is the additional living space they provide. If you are feeling tight on space and want to add a living area, or perhaps a space for a home office or workout area, a sunroom can be a great way to do that.
Adding a sunroom can give you the additional living area you are seeking with the added bonus of beautiful light and views, depending on your surroundings. Sometimes a sunroom can be just the little bit of space you and your family need to be comfortable in your home and to add a little brightness to your space.
Cost
If you are looking to add more space to your home, you may have also considered a full room addition before deciding on a sunroom. However, full room additions can be costly. If you want to add to your space without the cost of a full room addition, a sunroom can be a great compromise.
While you can certainly go towards excess when you add on a sunroom and can certainly make the price comparable to a full room addition, sunrooms have become so popular because they can be done more economically than a full room addition. So if you are looking for a great way to add that space in a cost-effective way, sunrooms are a popular option for a house addition.
Value
While sunrooms cannot technically be counted as square footage like a full room addition, so they technically can add value to your home by making it bigger, it can add value in different ways. If you are planning to stay in your home, a sunroom can add value to your daily life by providing more living space and even joy in you and your family member’s lives.
If you are planning on selling, while a sunroom cannot count towards square footage in making the selling price of your home higher, it can simply be more appealing to buyers and help to draw buyers in versus homes that do not have bonus features like a sunroom.
As you can see there are many reasons sunrooms are popular home additions and many benefits to adding a sunroom to your home. If you do decide to add a sunroom, it can increase living space, be cost efficient compared to a full room addition, and add value to your home.
