Different types of home extensions for growing families
Side Extensions
Side return extensions (also referred to as side infill extensions) are relatively small but mighty. They’re a winning option for almost any property that has unused space to its side – Victorian terraces with alleyways are a classic candidate for this reason.
These extensions come in a wide range of materials, styles and sizes so they’re easy to individualise for your family’s needs.
As well as being cheaper than some other extension options, side returns take advantage of the dead space next to your home and don’t cut into your garden space. This is a huge benefit if you’re a young family with little ones spending time outdoors or your green space is a haven for yourself and older family members.
What’s more, the amount of time a side return extension takes to be built is also minimal by comparison to some other options. While the amount of time it takes to build any extension is never an exact science, side extensions tend to take between 3 and 5 months.
Rear Extensions
Simply put, a rear extension is a way of increasing the amount of available space in your home by adding on to the back of the existing property. If you’re lucky enough to have some garden space at your disposal, they can be a fantastic way of boosting the indoor area of your home (although at the expense of your garden).
Rear extensions can range from conservatories to double-storey extensions so, naturally, there’s no uniform way of predicting prices.
The style you choose aside, you’ll have to consider factors including planning permission, the area that the property is in and who you choose to carry out your construction work.
Rear Extensions you can build under permitted development
If you’re looking to build a rear extension, you’re in luck! Most single-storeys fall under permitted development as long as you adhere to the following rules.
