Housing market continues to struggle
By Steven Willis on 30th December, 2010
With house prices in the UK failing to grow amid the economic uncertainty, and lenders including Nationwide and Halifax predicting a drop in 2011, it looks set to remain an unpromising time to sell up. So, more and more people are opting to stay in the house they’re in, and adapt it to suit their changing needs and requirements. The most obvious of these adaptations is through extensions. However, extensions of any significant scale are always expensive, noisy and disruptive. They also take weeks and sometimes even months to complete, impacting across family life.
Garden buildings are a hassle-free alternative to house extensions, bringing all of the benefits and more, without any of the disrupting downsides. Set aside from the house, the construction work is isolated and removed, and completed in a matter of days. The space that they bring is bespoke and flexible, far more adaptable than a bolted-on house extension.
Furthermore, when house extensions are developed around the homeowners specific needs at the time, they may not be to the taste of everyone, and therefore actually cause issues when the time comes to sell the property. In contrast, a garden room, separated from the main property, is a unique and distinct selling point.
