A garden office adds £20,000 to the average property's value


More confirmation that a garden office or studio (or indeed other shedlike build) makes your property more valuable comes from property specialists Regency Living.

Its latest report indicates that adding a new physical structure in the form of a garden room or office means you should be looking at an average added value of around 7.5% which, based on the current UK average house price of £268,548 is equivalent to £20,141. 

Similar, though lower, additions also suggest benefits including a conservatory (£18,798) and prefab summer house (£13,427). Even a simple shed or storage space with a concrete floor will boost your property value by 2.5% (£6,714).

Sales & Marketing Director at Regency Living, Tim Simmons said: “Maximising garden space is always a good way to add value to the home. When it comes to property value, a home is worth exactly what someone is willing to pay for it, so if you’re creating something unusual and a step above the competition, even in modest ways, you’re going to capture buyer attention and inevitably increase the price they’re willing to pay.”
