Garden rooms can add significant value to your property. Not only will they increase the square footage to your home in a cost-effective way, they also provide the separation that homeowners now desire in a home office. They have become incredibly popular, particularly as more people now work from home. This need for an additional room has trickled through to the property market, where homebuyers are keen to have dedicated office space in addition to the required number of bedrooms.

How much value does a garden room add?
Garden rooms are usually notably cheaper than traditional extensions in terms of construction cost. Research from leading property experts estimate that garden offices add 1.5 times the construction cost or a 5-15% increase on the total value, making it a worthwhile investment in your home.
Constructing a good quality, well designed extension will add also add to value and saleability when it comes to selling your home.
Do Garden rooms require planning permission?
Garden rooms or buildings do not require planning permission, if they fall within permitted development guidelines. To classify as an ‘outbuilding’ under permitted development rules, it must not contain sleeping accommodation and must be single storey with a maximum eaves height of 2.5m.
