Regardless of whether you choose a single-story garage conversion or want to construct an extension over your garage, this can offer you a functional space which can be used in countless ways, particularly if you opt to “knock through” and reconfigure your adjoining home space.
If you’re not certain of what you wish to do with the area, here’s a few garage conversion ideas:
Reconfigure Your Adjoining Living Area
One popular choice is making use of the garage to design an open-plan kitchen and living space. This configuration has grown to be extremely popular in recent years, particularly with families. Open-plan living gives you an area for you and your family to spend time with each other, whether you’re preparing food, entertaining, or simply relaxing. It could even let in more natural light.
Home Gym
If you’re a keen fitness fanatic or want a simple space to learn yoga, your garage conversion can be transformed into a home gym or fitness dojo. This space can then be separated from the rest of the home and if you install windows too you will have the ideal space to realise your fitness goals.
Home Office
When contemplating designing a space for a home office, utilising your garage space can be the ideal solution. You can use a garage conversion to build a home office that’s separate to your living space and create a separation between home and work life. A garage conversion for a home office might also provide the option of having an alternative entrance, so you can receive clients without them needing to enter your home.
Playroom
No matter whether your children are 3, 10 or 21 and still at home, they preferably, need their own space. You can make use of the extra space produced by a garage conversion to have a playroom for your teens or older children to hang out with friends. Even better you can close the door on all the chaos produced by a toy tidal wave or on your teen’s questionable music.
