Crafting a home that grows with you
Home additions, expansions, studios, ADUs, and new homes — we’ve done it all.
Unlocking your home’s potential
You love your home, community, and the close-knit friendships you’ve cultivated nearby. But as your home grapples with the challenges of modern living, you might be starting to feel a bit boxed in. The good news? The solution is there, you just need to know where to look.
Explore common types of home additions and expansions
To add more livable square footage, you have two options: build new or finish unfinished spaces. Here are six ways to add more livable space:
1. Second-Story Additions
One of the primary reasons to choose a second story is to expand the living space. A second story allows for additional bedrooms, bathrooms, or recreational areas, providing more room for a growing family or changing needs.
2. Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)
Creating a separate, self-contained living space on the property, often as a standalone structure or by converting existing space, like a garage or basement. ADUs serve as independent living quarters and are sometimes referred to as in-law suites or granny flats.
3. Bump-out Additions
A bump-out addition involves extending a portion of a house outward, typically on the ground floor. Extending a specific area of a room, such as the kitchen or bathroom, to create additional space without a full-scale addition.
4. Enclosed Porches & Sunrooms
By enclosing a porch or sunroom, you can effectively add usable indoor square footage to your home – and enjoy its benefits throughout the entire year. You can adapt this versatile living space to fit your specific needs. Moreover, these rooms typically receive ample natural light, allowing you to relish the outdoor ambiance while remaining protected from the elements.
5. Finished Basements
Sometimes, the answer is right under your nose. Basements often get a bad rap for being dark and dreary, leaving them underutilized. In reality, you can transform them into versatile spaces—a blank slate ready for your vision.
6. Converted Attic Spaces
Most of us don’t realize how useful an attic can be. Converting them allows homeowners to make the most of every inch of their property, turning previously wasted space into functional living areas.
