Planning an Extension for Your Home? What You Should Consider

The need for more space seems to be an ever-present challenge in today’s modern world, and home extensions are a popular option in Sydney. If you are considering adding to your home, you will need to think carefully about the layout and how it will work for you. While building extensions onto your Sydney home can be incredibly exciting, thinking through all your options means that you are more likely to stay within your budget and end up with more usable space.

Single-storey or double-storey extension?

For your house extensions in Sydney, you will need to decide how big you want to go. This is a great option if you want to increase the living space within your home, and you already have enough bedroom space upstairs. You can use it to make your kitchen bigger, give you open-planned living or add on an additional space for the kids or a relative.

Single-storey extensions may also cost you less than a double-storey.

On the other hand, a double-storey extension is a great option if you have a growing family and you need more bedroom space. It may also be worthwhile if you are thinking of growing your family in the future or you have a lot of guests that may want to stay, and you do not want to move. It also creates more space downstairs that everyone can enjoy.

Allowing the natural light to enter your home

When you are planning an extension, think about how you will let the light in. Natural light in a home is important because it can help the place to look more spacious, as well as meaning that you don’t need to put artificial lighting on throughout the day. If you are completing a single-storey extension, this could be done by adding skylights.

Creating a connection between the indoors and outdoors

To achieve that much-desired flow, installing glass doors that can be folded or slid back is a growing trend. Plus, it will help you to fill your home with more light. Complement your home with a beautiful outdoor dining area, and you can have the best of both worlds.

Create a flexible space

Rather than having defined areas for your home, a growing trend is having flexibility within your home. By doing this, you can make your space work for you. One way that this can be achieved through open plan living where you can open and close spaces with furniture.
