Adding value to a Kensington home

If you own a house in Kensington and Chelsea, there are five routes. Each one adds value. They are a loft conversion, a kitchen extension and a new build basement. The others are remodelling for extra space, and updating the materials and finishes. A design and build company such as NU Projects can run any of them. It does so under one contract.

1. A loft conversion turns unused roof space into a usable room. That could be a bedroom, a home office or a study. It is one of the cheaper routes. It uses space the house already has.
2. A kitchen extension is another popular option for homeowners looking to add value. This involves extending the size of your existing kitchen. It creates more space and improves its functionality. This can be a great way to add value to your home. A well-designed and well-equipped kitchen is a key selling point for many buyers.
3. A new build basement is another option for homeowners looking to add value. This involves constructing a new basement under the footprint of your home. It can be used for various purposes. These include a home cinema, a gym, or additional living space. This can be a costly option. It can also add significant value to your home.
4. Remodelling to create extra space is another option for homeowners looking to add value. This involves making changes to the layout of your home. One example is converting a garage into a living space. Another is adding an extension for additional usable space. This can be a cost-effective way to add value to your home. It uses existing space rather than requiring new construction.
5. Updating with high-end design materials and fabrics is another option. It suits homeowners looking to add value. This involves making improvements to the appearance and functionality of your home. Examples are replacing outdated fixtures and fittings, repainting, or installing new flooring. This can be a relatively inexpensive way to add value to your home. It can significantly improve its appearance and appeal to potential buyers.

A design and build firm such as NU Projects carries the planning. It also carries the cost plan and the build. All of it sits under one contract. That covers the planning applications, the building control route and the party wall procedure. On a Kensington and Chelsea property, these are rarely straightforward.
