Are you about to welcome a new baby to the family? Have your children reached an age where they’re too old to share a room? Maybe you have an older parent who you don’t want living on their own? If you find yourself in one of these situations, your first reaction may be to upgrade to a larger house. But before you jump right into the time-consuming process of moving, make sure you explore the possibility of adding a master bedroom to your current residence.
Adding a whole new room is not something that crosses the minds of most homeowners. But with the right home addition expert, it might actually be the best option for you. Here are a few reasons why:
1. Avoid the incredible hassle of moving. First, you have to pick a realtor to sell your home. After that, it’s time to start looking for a new house that’s available at the perfect time (and perfect price) to coincide with your sale. Next, negotiate both deals. And it’s only then that you get to start with the aggravation of packing up your things and moving.
2. Don’t leave your neighbors and the places you love. Developing relationships can be hard. But if you’ve lived in the same place for a while, you are now part of a community. This means having a familiarity with the neighbors you see on a day-to-day basis. You barbecue together on the weekends. Your kids play with their kids. It’s comfortable. The same holds true for your favorite Italian restaurant up the block. Or the supermarket you know like the back of your hand. If adding a new master bedroom can help you avoid moving, you won’t have to start all of these relationships from scratch.
3. Increase the value of your home. If you use an experienced and creative NJ Design Build Contractor to construct your new master bedroom, you can actually recoup a lot of the money you spend on it because of the positive effect it has on your home value. One of the most important factors when selling a home is differentiating it from others in your area. And what better way to do that than to have a bigger, more modern master bedroom (and bathroom!) than the other homes in your neighborhood.
4. Get the master bedroom of your dreams. This is probably the most satisfying reason to add a master bedroom to your existing home. The simple truth is, if you go out and buy another house, you only have access to what’s on the market at the time. But if you do your own addition, your only limit is the imagination of you and your contractor. From floorplan to floor type. From walk-in closets to the countertops and fixtures in your sparkling new master bathroom. Each and every aspect of your new master bedroom is entirely up to you.
