Bungalows are packed with potential. They are small and mighty properties with enviable footprints, already large enough to fit all the requirements of a house within one floor. Meaning by the time you have added an extension you could potentially be doubling your living space, depending on the type of extension you choose. Bungalows are becoming increasingly popular extension projects thanks to their generous spaces, large plots and ease of planning. Often dated and left unloved, they are an attractive prospect for buyers and planning departments. Their flexibility offers homeowners the chance to double the size of their home without extending the bungalow into the garden, or affecting their neighbours and creating planning issues. Due to their large footprint, bungalows offer the potential to enlarge your living space by adding floors on top of the existing space, giving you the opportunity to have plenty of room and retain the luxury of a large garden or plot. If you are thinking about converting a bungalow into a family home to be proud of, we can certainly help.
