Looking to level up your living space? Loft conversions are an increasingly popular choice. There are so many reasons why a loft conversion is a great idea but if you’re not so sure, keep reading to find out what it can add to your home.
More space
Adding an extra room in your house is of course going to give you more living space. Whether you decide to use the attic as a spare bedroom, additional living space or a games room for the kids, a loft conversion is totally worth it if more space is something you would benefit from.
Energy efficient
The conversion process typically involves adding insulation to the walls of your loft. This will improve the energy efficiency of your entire home. The addition of insulation will help to keep the heat in, meaning you won’t need to put the heating on as often – saving you lots of money in the long run.
Add value to your home
Loft conversions can be great investments, too. A beautifully designed and well-executed loft conversion could add significant value to your home and could be a big selling point to future potential buyers.
Add more natural light
Lots of homeowners tend to add skylights or dormer windows to their loft space, which is great for increasing the amount of natural light flooding in. The extra light will make the space so much more inviting; again, another great selling point to think about if you’re planning to sell your property in the future.
Interior design
In order to access your lovely new loft, you’ll need to install a loft ladder or, depending on the space available in your home, a small staircase.
With so many shapes, styles and sizes available, you could choose a loft ladder or staircase that really makes your interior design pop.
Whatever your home aesthetic, there’s a loft ladder that will suit, from rustic wooden designs to super sleek industrial-looking aluminium ladders. If you’ve got the space and budget, a spiral staircase always looks great, too.
