The Benefits of Installing a Kitchen Extension

Integrated Designs • Sep 20, 2019
Kitchen extensions are a popular home improvement, offering extra space for small kitchens or creating a more inclusive home with an open plan kitchen diner. As one of the most used rooms in any property, kitchens are a place for cooking, hosting and socialising, but if you don’t have enough space to do this comfortably, it can seem like more of a task than it should be.

If you’re thinking of investing in a kitchen extension, read on to learn about the top benefits.

More space
The biggest benefit of a kitchen extension is the space you'll gain in your home. Why not use your new space for an added kitchen island, extra storage or breakfast bar? Or, a popular choice is to convert the kitchen into a more open-plan space, either utilising the area as a multi-functional kitchen and dining room or as a kitchen and relaxation space complete with sofas. Think about how your family will benefit the most and customise your extension accordingly.  

Modern
Light, airy and well-designed, a kitchen extension can instantly give your kitchen a modern feel. More space means more room for those kitchen features you’ve always dreamt of. Whether you simply want to install some new appliances, or you want to open up the room and at the same time let in more natural light, extensions have endless possibilities. What’s better than inviting your guests into a modern space, impressing them and hosting the perfect evening?

Adds value
Homes that have modern and practical features such as extensions may be more sought after when put on the market. So, whether you’re planning to sell up soon, or would like reassurance for the future, an extension could be a good investment with a profitable return. However, while an extension could help you increase your selling price, it could in fact be the very thing you need to stop you from moving house. Compared to the cost of moving, an extension could be a more affordable option, and if you love everything else about your home, renovating your kitchen could be the last step in making your property perfect.
