5 Reasons to Have a Veranda in My Garden

5 Reasons to Have a Veranda in My Garden

1. Verandas Offer More Living Space

A carport or veranda is the perfect solution for adding more living space to your home. You are able to use your veranda as an outdoor living room to host garden parties and barbeques.

2. Extra Storage Space

Veranda’s help protect items stored such as barbeques and garden furniture from harsh weather and direct sunlight. This means you don’t have to keep carrying heavy furniture in and out of storage lockups.

3. Increase Sale Appeal

When surveyed last year, more space was the third highest demand for home buyers, with 27% stating it was a priority. According to those surveyed, home buyers were willing to pay more than £10,000 for homes with extra living space.

Therefore, those looking to sell might want to look for ways to cost effectively add on living space and those currently not looking for a new home, might still be interested in more space. A veranda would be perfect for this as it adds a lot of appeal to those that like to host outdoor gatherings.

4. Enjoying the Outdoors:
   A perfectly designed and installed veranda, offers you an enhanced outdoor living area that can be used all year round without worrying about a downpour or getting too hot in the sun.

Due to the openness of the design you can also enjoy the sights and sounds of your garden without the detachment that can be felt in a more enclosed structure. Sitting under this sheltered area, enjoying the lovely breeze, makes you feel close to nature and rejuvenates your senses.

5. Hobbies

You can use a veranda to sow seeds and bring on plants as you will be sheltered from the elements such as the rain whilst potting your plants.

You can also enjoy hobbies under your veranda without worrying about the rain stopping your such as painting, woodwork, needlework, playing musical instruments and more.
