The kitchen has long been called the heart of the home, but in many properties, these rooms can feel cramped, dark, and disconnected from the rest of the house. If you find yourself constantly bumping into family members while cooking or wishing you had a space for entertaining, a kitchen extension might be the most rewarding renovation you ever undertake.
More Than Just Extra Square Footage At DM Property Services, we’ve seen first-hand how a well-executed kitchen extension transforms daily life. It’s not just about adding a few metres of floor space; it’s about changing how you use your home. By opting for a rear or side-return extension, you can create a contemporary “living-kitchen”—a bright, open-plan area that combines cooking, dining, and relaxing.
Adding Real Value From a financial perspective, a kitchen extension is one of the “safest” investments you can make. In the UK property market, a modern, spacious kitchen-diner can add anywhere from 10% to 15% to your home’s valuation. For potential buyers, the kitchen is often the “deciding room.”
Bringing the Outside In Popular trends right now include the installation of bi-fold doors and roof lanterns. These features flood the space with natural light and create a seamless transition to your garden. Whether you’re dreaming of a sleek, minimalist handleless kitchen or a traditional Shaker style with a bespoke kitchen island, the extension provides the “blank canvas” you need to realise that vision.
