Does Building A Conservatory Add Value To Properties, Or Make Them Easier To Sell?

Monday, February 15th, 2010

I live in a fairly small 3 bedroom house with my husband and 3 children. We could really do with more space, and we intend to try and buy a larger property in the nest 12 months. So i am wondering whether or not building a conservatory, while it would be fab for us to have some more living space now, would be a good or bad investment in a property we will be selling.
Any ideas from anyone who has had a conservatory built and then sold their home??

Will Adding A Conservatory To My House Add Value To The Property?

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

The house is a beautiful Georgian terraced ground floor flat (actually a maisonette – bought for £250K last year). We have a fair-sized garden (about 42sq.m.), but only half of it gets the sun. The part of the garden next to the house is not dark, but does not get direct sunlight until the evening. Essentially, we do not use that bit of garden for anything. We have thought of adding a conservatory, which will measure about 7m x 2.5m. We appreciate the need to get it done properly, and expect to spend around £15K to £20K. Is it worth it? We don’t think we’ll be there for very long. It is more of an investment property than anything else. Any advice?
