Basement Conversions Harrogate

Can’t afford to move?  Problems with planning permission for an extension? Why not convert an existing basement, or even build a new one? Increase the value of your existing property and make the best use of the space you already have for you and your family.

Why Create A Basement Under An Existing Dwelling?

To gain extra living space
:
If you need to expand there are only three places to go – You can move up, out, or down!
Planning issues:
Building costs and physical/geographical restrictions can make moving outwards and upwards quite a problem, if not impossible.

Of course you may choose to move house altogether:
Moving house will always incur huge financial expenditure – just look at the ‘extras’ for example when purchasing a £350,000 property.
Stamp duty  10,500
Estate Agents Fees  6,200
Conveyance  1,750
Removal costs  2,000
Total 20,450

Coupled to this comes the grief and hassle of locating a suitable home.   These start with finding a buyer – Dealing with estate agents, Solicitors, and Financial advisors not to mention the upset leaving of a happy home.

A home that has all the amenities you require, in a good location, with schools and work that your family are more than content with.

Everything, in fact except extra space.  Loft conversions and extensions are becoming more difficult and costly due to the ever increasing and more stringent building regulations.
