Garden Room in the modern living environment. The garden often goes wasted in terms of its possibilities. Separate from your main residence, a garden room is an insulated building in your garden which allows your household to enjoy a multi-functional space. Constructed from high-quality, unique materials, if you want to utilise your garden space all year round it is time to install a garden room. Ever since the pandemic, our home has a whole new meaning. From small business premises to office space, our houses are not just a place for relaxing anymore and when you own a garden room, you open up many new possibilities to explore the ways you can use your home and make the most out of the entire space.
Does a Garden Room add value to your property?
With property prices on the rise, homeowners are always looking for ways to add value to their existing properties and a garden room can certainly add the value they are looking for. A garden room is quicker, cleaner and more affordable than a traditional extension, whilst offering the same benefits. Most experts agree that a garden room will see a return on investment of between 1.4-1.6x its value, therefore, a high quality garden room could increase the value of a property between 5% and 15% - which is a significant increase in value, compared to the cost and hassle of installing the space. Unlike an extension which could require planning permission and a substantial amount of building work and disruption to your home, the installation of a garden room itself involves minimal disruption and costs, with build times as short as a few days in some cases. At Brackenwood, our garden rooms are manufactured and designed to give you the maximum amount of flexibility and cause no disturbance to your main home.What can a Garden Room be used for?
