2nd Story Additions: Adding to Your Home’s Value in Multiple Ways
A 2nd story addition is just that: an addition. You are adding an entirely new floor to your home. You don’t want to go the cheapest, least expensive route, in either your 2nd story addition or anything else related to where you live. That said, getting an additional floor on your home is, almost invariably, less expensive than moving into a larger house.
When you add in all of the time, effort, money, and more that it would take to improve your home only to sell it and buy a bigger one, a 2nd story addition looks cost effective indeed.
Beyond that, when it does come time to sell your home, a 2nd story addition can absolutely improve your home’s value. It very well could add a lot of value to your home, as a 2nd story addition can make your home so much bigger, so much more suitable for more people.
What This Addition Brings to Your Home
Many come to us for a 2nd story addition because they want to add to their home, they want more living space, and they don’t want to have to sacrifice any of their outdoor areas to do it. Yes, we have years of experience in ADU construction, in building additions on the first floor, and so forth. But, we also know that those aren’t optimal options (or even viable options) for many homeowners throughout Southern California. A 2nd story addition really can be a solution.
For many, a 2nd story addition is an opportunity to “open up” their home. That means that they may wish to add a greater connection to the outdoors. That could mean having a balcony, or even a rooftop space. It could mean using skylights, enormous windows, high ceilings, and the like.
When you reach out to us, we’ll sit down with you to go over your options. From there, we’ll draw upon our years of experience to show you exactly how we can help you to meet all your goals for your second story.
Taking Care of The Details That Matter
As you might imagine, quite a bit goes into building a second story. It’s not just about the second story itself. Your 2nd story addition plan has to take into account the terrain as well as the existing first floor. For example, we can work with you to reconfigure the floor plan of your first floor to make sure that you’re getting the most out of both of them. Your stairway, for one, is going to have to go somewhere. We can make sure that your home’s layout is what you want it to be.
Also, if you’re like many, then you’re going to want a bathroom on your 2nd story, too. We can work to upgrade your plumbing, your electrical panels, and more. The zoning laws, any permits, any planning, and more - we can take care of all of it. As we’ve been doing this for many years, we know what goes into a great 2nd story. Now, we can put all of that experience to work for your home.
A Team That’s Ready to Help
A 2nd story addition may be exactly what you need to get more out of your home, both today as well as tomorrow. We’ll be happy to sit down with you, talk about your goals, and lay out how we can make them happen. That said, perhaps you’d be more satisfied with an ADU, with another kind of addition, and so forth. We can help with that, too. To talk to our experts and start the process, you can message us through our site or call.
