Home Extension Loans

You can use a home extension loan for projects of all sizes, from outbuildings and loft conversions to single-storey lean-tos. With Novuna Personal Finance, you can borrow £1,000 up to £35,000 so the possibilities are endless when it comes to your extension plans. Here are a few types of house extensions you could fund with a home improvement loan from us...

• Conservatory and orangery loans
  Installing a conservatory or an orangery can add extra space and more natural light to your property. With the current interior design trend of bringing the outside in, these external glass structures are an increasingly popular extension option.
  
  
• Loft conversion loans
  If you want more space without having to move to a new house, a loft extension is the perfect solution. There are several different types of loft conversions but typically, the attic space is converted into an additional bedroom or bathroom.
  
  
• Single-storey extension loans
  A single-storey extension expands the ground floor, typically to create more space for a new kitchen, living room or utility room. With more and more of us working remotely, this type of extension can also be used for a dedicated home office.
  
  
• Multi-storey extension loans
  If you want to add space upstairs and downstairs, a multi-storey extension can be applied to any side of the property. Detached and semi-detached houses with external spaces like gardens or driveways are ideally suited to projects like this.
  
  
• Wrap around home extension loans
  If you have space enough to the side and the rear of your property, a wrap around home extension could be the best option for you. This type of remodelling creates an additional L-shaped space, which can be open plan or a new separate room.
  
  
• Cellar or basement conversion loans
  A cellar conversion is the ideal way to add extra space without effecting the external appearance of your property. Whereas loft conversions are typically used for bedrooms and bathrooms, basement conversions are more flexible in their use.
  
  
• Garage extension loans
  Whether you’re in need of some extra space for a new vehicle or considering converting your garage into a multipurpose room, you can also use an unsecured home extension loan for garage conversion and extension projects too.

If you have a growing family, are working from home more often, or things are starting to feel a little cramped, a home extension is a great way to add more space. However, depending on the type of extension you have in mind, the cost of contractor fees, planning permissions, interior design and more can soon add up. If paying for everything all at once isn’t possible right now, a home extension loan could be the answer to your problem.

Not only will a home extension create more living space in the short term, but when it comes to selling your home, extensions are shown to increase property values by up to 30%. That’s why it’s important to consider the potential return on investment against your home extension loan cost.
