Loft conversions in london are big, beautiful spaces that add functionality and value to a home without having to use any precious garden space. The space that is created can be the traditional upside down V shape, which is a converted loft with roof lights. It can also be a huge open plan space with an L shaped loft conversion or Mansard conversion, sometimes outdoor space, and floor to ceiling windows – the structural design possibilities are extensive.
When homeowners think about a loft conversion space, they often think that the space is, or should be, just the one spacious room that takes up the entire square footage. Interestingly, this leaves the opportunity for multi-room loft conversions ignored, when in fact they can be a fantastic idea. Multi-room loft conversions provide a huge range of benefits that you’re probably unaware of and could be missing out on.
If you are thinking of having your loft conversion updated, or you’re in the process of planning a new loft conversion, it is a great idea to explore Loft Conversion Options, like a multi-room design because of the following benefits:
Table of Contents
A Self Contained Unit
A self contained loft conversion may contain a kitchen area, an ensuite, multiple bedrooms, a living area – it all depends on the design. The addition of ensuites and other amenities, though, does mean the loft is more self-contained than it would be without, which is really useful. It means guests don’t have to share your facilities. It means your conversion is more appealing if you plan to have a lodger, long-term rental tenant or short term rental tenants.
Luxury In Your Loft
Multiple room lofts are more luxurious than single room lofts because they create the opportunity for opulence and indulgent additions. Think stunning roll-top baths and planty bathrooms with massive skylights, walk-in wardrobes, wet rooms, outdoor balconies – all the supreme high-life you could enjoy in your home’s highest floor.
More Guests
Multi-rooms in the loft means more guests can stay. One room with a bed is great for one guest, or a couple, but if you have multiple rooms it means you can have even more guests come and stay in your home. It’s perfect if you are the kind of family who has multiple family members from other areas come and stay at your home regularly. It also means they will be more comfortable because they will have their own bathroom and facilities without having to infringe on your space.
More Room For Different Uses
One extra room in a loft conversion can be used for so many different uses. Some people like to use it as an art studio, the third of people in the UK working from home might use it as a home office, some families may utilise it as an extra living room space, or study room – the possibilities are endless. The great news is that with a multi-room conversion you don’t just have to choose one use, you can choose multiple uses. Essentially, you get more juice for the squeeze, further underlining and adding to the core reasons for investing in such an extensive home improvement.
Convenience
Having a kitchenette, walk-in wardrobe, wet room or ensuite in a loft conversion makes the space much more convenient when you spend a lot of time up there. Whether your teen uses it as their living space, you work up there most of the day, or you use the loft as a creative space, having multiple amenities and areas means you have so much more convenience. You don’t have to go downstairs to use the toilet or get yourself a hot drink, you have everything you need right there, which is really useful, especially if you live in a home with more than two storeys already and the lowest level amenities are multiple flights of stairs away.
Increased Acoustics Control
When you have a loft professionally installed soundproofing is added as standard, as part of the insulating process. It is something that has to be added as part of building regulations so that sound from the loft is not impactful on the rooms below. However, the sound inside the loft is still affected by the shape of the room, and the more open any room is, the more echoey it can be. Multiple rooms in a loft means more control over the acoustics of each space. A cosier feel, with better sound and overall control that’s a little more appealing to some people than just one big open space.
Everybody Can Enjoy The New Space
A one use room can be enjoyed by multiple people at the same time if it is a living area or movie room (or something similar). However, if the loft conversion is only a home office or bedroom, it becomes only a space that can be enjoyed by one person, or as a single use area. When you have a multi-room loft conversion everybody can get the most out of it. You can have an office space, whilst your partner has a creative space in another area, for example. A multi-use loft conversion simply means there is more room for the whole family to get what they want out of this new and exciting new part of the house.
