Adding a conservatory to your home is a transformative decision that offers numerous benefits, enhancing your living space and lifestyle. At Glevum, we specialise in crafting bespoke conservatories tailored to meet homeowners’ unique needs and preferences in Gloucestershire, the surrounding counties, and South Wales. With nearly one in five homes having a conservatory, conservatories are very popular. This blog explores the multifaceted advantages of installing a conservatory and how it can enrich your home environment.
Expanding Your Living Space
A conservatory provides additional room for various functions, from a sunlit lounge area to a vibrant playroom or a serene home office. This extension increases your property’s square footage and offers a versatile space adaptable to your evolving needs. Whether your family is growing or you require a dedicated area for hobbies, a conservatory provides the flexibility to accommodate these changes.
Seamless Connection Between Home and Garden
Integrating a conservatory creates a harmonious link between your indoor living space and the outdoors. With expansive glazing, you can enjoy panoramic views of your garden throughout the year, fostering a closer connection with nature. This design enhances the aesthetic appeal of your home and allows you to appreciate your outdoor surroundings regardless of the season. As noted by experts, aligning the garden with the house and using consistent materials can create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Year-Round Usability
Modern conservatories are designed for comfort in all seasons. Features such as solid roofs, high-performance glazing, and integrated heating and cooling systems ensure a pleasant environment regardless of external weather conditions. Additionally, installing blinds or shades can help control sunlight and temperature, enhancing the room’s usability throughout the year.
Boosting Vitamin D
The health benefits of a conservatory are substantial, as natural light can enhance mood and productivity. Additionally, typical glass panels in conservatories allow 74% of UV radiation through, contributing to vitamin D levels.
Adding value to your home
When it comes to the time for you to move on from your home or downsize later in life, research from Nationwide Building Society shows that adding a conservatory to your home can add between 5% and 15% to its value. It will also make your home stand out when compared with comparable homes that don’t have a conservatory.
Reflecting Personal Style
A conservatory offers an opportunity to express your personal taste and complement your home’s architecture. With various styles, materials, and finishes, you can design a space that aligns with your aesthetic preferences and enhances your property’s character. The customisation options are extensive, whether you favour a classic Victorian design or a sleek, modern structure.
Alternative Solutions: hup! Extensions
For homeowners seeking an alternative to traditional conservatories, Glevum offers the innovative hup! extension system. This modern solution provides rapid installation, exceptional energy efficiency, and design flexibility, allowing you to create a space that meets your requirements. The hup! system can seamlessly transform an existing conservatory into a contemporary extension, enhancing functionality and aesthetic appeal.
