Conservatories have long been a popular investment for homeowners all over the UK – and for good reason; Conservatories offer a range of serious benefits that make them one of the best investments you can make. In this article we’ll talk about some of the major benefits you can get from investing in a Conservatory.
Improves the Appearance of your Home
Conservatories can do a huge amount to improve the look of your home. There’s a huge range of different designs and options on the market, and many businesses and installers can custom make designs to suit your needs. You’ll not only be able to find a design which suits your home but enhances its appearance significantly.
Access to Natural Light and a Natural View
One thing a Conservatory provides plenty of is natural light. Natural light is invaluable for mental and physical health; countless studies have shown the benefits of natural light to our everyday lives including health, productivity, and general happiness. It’s far better than artificial light. With a Conservatory, you can create a space in your home where you’re provided with a wealth of natural light that you can access without issue all throughout the day.
Not only will you have access to natural light, but a Conservatory can be connected to your garden or built to provide a natural view. This too has been shown to have very positive effects on mental health. Regardless of whether you’re using your Conservatory as a sun lounge or if you’re using it as a dinning or play area, the view offered will be a great addition.
Easy to add Additional Space
Conservatories are widely recognised as one of the easiest ways to add a massive amount of space to your home. Many extensions require planning permission, which can often be a demanding and annoying experience. Conservatories on the other hand often don’t require this extensive paperwork. In cases where they do, Conservatories are often easy to push through as they don’t require the same kind of demanding work as other kinds of home extensions.
Conservatories can also provide additional practical space. Conservatories can be used to expand kitchens or add to dining areas. This is often one of the easiest ways to add to the size of your home and these spaces. It can also be used of course to create entirely new rooms.
Connects your Home to your Garden
A Conservatory is one of the best ways to bring your home closer to your garden. Not only will you get a better view of your garden, but it can offer you easy access to your garden. Many people theme their new Conservatories with plants, flowers and often use it to perfectly bridge their home with their garden and nature in general.
With Double or Triple Glazing, can be used All Year Round
One of the biggest benefits of modern Conservatories is that they can be used all year round. Older conservatories which mounted single pane glass windows often became cold during the winter (since single pane glass is a notoriously poor insulator). This often meant that while there was additional space, its use could end up being restricted based on the weather which proved frustrating.
But with modern conservatories, there’s options for both Double and Triple Glazing which are superb insulators. With their spaced glass and argon gas, double or triple glazing will ensure your Conservatory is kept warm all year round and is kept at a comfortable temperature. You’ll be able to relax in it during the winter as well as during the summer and spring. You get a functioning room all year round.
Double or Triple Glazing being able to slow the loss of heat also means another important bonus, improved energy efficiency. You won’t need to spend increased bills on heating your new Conservatory, nor will you face the additional loss of heat due to the greater number of windows on your property.
A Huge Boost to Property Value
Conservatories are widely viewed as one of the best home improvements on the market for adding additional property value to a home. It’s been estimated that a Conservatory can add between 5 and 12% value to a property (often depending on their location). Conservatories are often appealing to buyers for many of the reasons we’ve already discussed as why they’re appealing in general; they offer an additional space without the same kind of intrusive work as other extensions, they provide light, a connection to the garden. They also add hugely to the appearance of the property. If you’re interested in selling your home in the future, a Conservatory is one of the best ways to prepare it
