Garage Conversions In Tameside
Many homes use their garage as storage space rather than as a place to help keep their car dry. We find that family garages are not really used as the home for the family car or 4WD, but instead as a storeroom for broken furniture, old tyres, unused children’s playthings and things that “may perhaps” get used again one day (but hardly ever do!). Does that sound like your garage?
There is a better use for such a big component of your property than a simple clutter repository! Make the most of the misused space and convert your garage into a practical, stunning living space with a garage conversion.
Over the years cars have got ever wider although single garages have continued to be the same width, rendering it impossible to open the doors of your car in it nowadays, but while the car has grown out of your garage, a typical single garage is still about 150 sq ft. which provides the possibility of designing a considerable amount of extra living space for you to enhance your home. A double or larger garage can offer a lot more possibilities.
The beauty of a garage conversion is that it’s a lot more economical than a regular extension (or a loft conversion) as the foundations, walls and floor are actually there and (in the majority of cases) planning permission is not called for. It is a comparatively economical way of adding living space to your home and making it possible for you to avoid the huge expense and aggravation of moving house to get the additional room that you need to have.
Just imagine the possibilities; an extra bedroom, a dedicated home office or even that gym you have always wanted. Ultimately a garage can be converted into whatever your heart desires with the only limits being your creativity and budget (subject to building regulations). Common options for garage conversions include: an extra bedroom, a boy or girls’s playroom, a home cinema, gym, home office, artist’s studio, workshop, craft room, granny flat (or flat for a son/daughter/family carer).
Research by Virgin Money suggests that converting your garage could add approximately ₤ 40,000 to the value of your property, rendering it an extremely budget-friendly way to add a substantial amount of resale value and added square footage to your property.
