If you feel like you might be outgrowing your current home, remember that you don’t have to move! Between additions, remodels, renovations, and more, there are so many ways to expand your current home to fit your changing needs. At Epic Group, we specialize in all the above and are here to help you live in your dream home – no U-Haul required!
Why Expand Your Home?
Growing Family
A growing family is a beautiful thing, but it can bring challenges in relation to your living space. Adding new family members (young or old) can make things feel a little cramped, and while upsizing might seem like the obvious answer, buying a new home isn’t your only option. Home expansion projects can be a better option – both financially and logistically – to “right-size” your home.
Increase Value
Expanding your home’s space doesn’t just make things more comfortable, it also increases the value of your home. More square footage often means a higher price, so when you’re ready to sell you can get the best deal possible. It’s a win-win: enjoy more space now and reap the financial rewards later!
Dream Projects
Does your home just need that one little (or big) addition to make it your DREAM space? Sometimes bringing your vision to life means expanding your current space – which is where we come in! Whether it’s a brand-new kitchen, cozy reading nook, or a large bump out to expand living area, Epic can make it happen.
Ways to Expand Your Home
Build Up or Out, or Both!
One way to create more living space in your current home is to build upwards or outwards. If you live in a one-story home, for example, adding an additional level to your home can be a fantastic fix for lack of space – especially if you’re looking for extra bedrooms. Expanding outward, on the other hand, allows you to increase your square footage, giving you the opportunity to enlarge your kitchen, living, and dining areas or add functional spaces like a mudroom or an additional bathroom.
Create an In-Law Suite
Sometimes multi-generational families need to live in a single home. Whether for medical reasons, childcare, or just personal decisions, adding an in-law suite can be hugely beneficial for extended family to live – temporarily or permanently. In-law suites can be created by reconfiguring your current layout, adding space in the basement, constructing space above your garage, or even through building a small guest house on your property.
Adapt Outdoor Living Spaces
If more living area is what you really need, take a look at your front and back porches! Enclosing these areas can transform them into functional spaces that grow and adapt with your needs. Consider converting them into sunrooms, a three seasons room, or storage areas – the possibilities are endless!
Finish Your Basement
Much like adding a second story, finishing your basement is an excellent option to add square footage to your home. Whether it’s a bar, wine cellar, kids’ hideaway, or even just more bedrooms – this area has so much potential to add to your dream living space.
