Our client wanted a space to allow his growing family to relax and get away from it all. Somewhere they could go and potentially make some noise, or just make a mess, whatever they wanted to do, without disturbing the rest of the family. We had to create a room in which the adults could relax and the kids could play.
Before.
As you can see from the photographs we agreed upon a garage conversion, the garage roof was lifted to create the room. With this type of project, it is essential to plan the interior with care so that it links with the existing house in a satisfactory way.
After.
Over the garage, extensions can be ideal as music or games rooms. It’s just a nice place to go and relax. Although over garage conversions can be an ideal room to add a room away from the house for mess or noise, you won’t see many in Bedford as in Victorian times, cars weren’t really around yet, so what need would they have for a garage? However, you would probably have more of a chance of seeing a garage conversion in Milton Keynes.
