There are many ways to utilise the new space in your attic, which we highlight below. Remember, our team has vast experience in home renovations and improvements and can help you with layout tips and suggestions.
It’s vital to use all the space to its full potential, including the awkward angles, nooks, and crannies. Our building company suggests built-in wardrobes, bedroom furniture, and bookshelves for Wakefield and Huddersfield properties. Custom-made desks, wall-hung sinks and toilets, and bespoke storage solutions should also be included in the overall design for the best effect.
Similar to basement conversions, natural light is not an automatic benefit. So, we suggest rooflights or Velux windows in basic and hip-to-gable loft conversions. Dormer conversions and mansard conversions will have vertical windows installed, but that’s not to say you can’t add additional windows. The more natural light you can have flooding into your new space, the better. You can also oft for a simple rooflight conversion.
An alternative solution is the addition of a Juliet balcony, which will allow for floor-to-ceiling illumination. However, it’s important to know the rules pertaining to these installations. Juliet balconies can be installed under Permitted Development regulations, but if they have a floor, no matter how small, then planning permission will be required.
For property owners in Wakefield, Huddersfield, or the surrounding areas who have external views worth highlighting, a loft conversion with larger Velux windows or a Juliet balcony is worth considering. Imagine sitting back in a beautifully decorated living space and enjoying a bird's-eye view of your external space, whether urban or agricultural. It may sound idyllic, but it’s also achievable, thanks to the loft conversions designed and constructed by our experienced building company.
