Building a conservatory could be a fantastic way to add value to your property,extend your living space and increase the amount of enjoyment you get out of staying at home.
And you don't have to break the bank to get one either as the cost of conservatories has come down considerably in recent years.
These days many people need extra space for their family but because of the current economic climate cannot always afford to be able to buy a bigger home,so a conservatory is an ideal way for getting enjoyable extra space.
Ryan Notz,chief executive officer of mybuilder.com,noted:"A conservatory works best as an extension to an existing living space-perhaps turning a dining room into a family room.
"Access and flow are really important.You don't want to have to walk through a galley kitchen to get to the conservatory."
He added:"One of the nicest things a conservatory can do to your home is add light.If there is a broad opening to a conservatory,the natural light can really brighten up your home and warm up the space in the winter."
Mr Notz also said that if you need to sell your home for whatever reason,future buyers will recognise the extra qualities a conservatory adds and pay"proportionally more".
Certainly,building a conservatory is not a decision to be taken lightly,but if you do take the plunge you can really kit your new living space out with a few stylish add-ons.
These include LED outdoor lights and lamp posts.You could even plant a small flowerbed around the base of the conservatory and make it look beautiful using low voltage garden lights.
