The Most Popular Reasons to Add Onto Your Home

At Churchill Homes, we do it all. From building custom homes from scratch to adding onto your existing home to make it custom after the fact. Over the years, we have seen homeowners request additions for all sorts of reasons. Here are some of the most popular.

More Space

One of the most obvious reasons homeowners choose to add onto their homes is to create more living space. This may be because they need more bedrooms for a growing family, or they want to add a home office or a playroom for their children. Adding an extra room or even a whole floor can significantly increase the living space in a home, providing more comfort and convenience for the family.

Increase Home Value

Another reason homeowners may want to add onto their homes is to increase their home's value. Adding extra square footage, updating the home's interior, or adding modern amenities such as a home theater or mother-in-law suite can make the home more desirable to potential buyers. This can be especially important if the homeowner plans to sell the home in the future.

Aging in Place

Some homeowners may choose to add onto their homes to accommodate their changing needs as they age. This may include adding a first-floor master suite, a bathroom with safety features, or an upper story to accommodate family caretakers. These additions can help homeowners age in place, allowing them to stay in their homes comfortably and safely as they get older.

Home Office

The rise of remote work has made home offices a popular addition for homeowners. Adding a home office can provide a quiet and productive workspace, which is especially important for those who work from home. Additionally, a home office can increase the value of the home, again, making it an excellent investment for those who plan to sell their homes in the future.

Entertainment Space

Homeowners may also choose to add onto their homes to create an entertainment space. Theaters, game rooms, custom bars, dedicated entertainment spaces like these are valuable assets. An entertainment space can provide a fun and relaxing area for the family to enjoy on a day-to-day basis and they can make hosting gatherings all the most fun.
