How to build a side-return extension

Turn wasted outdoor space into a flexible living area with a side-return extension

How do I use the space?

Don't need a bigger kitchen? Why not consider these other options?

Flexible living room
Keeping the new space flexible means it will appeal to a wider cross section of buyers when it's time to sell, so add a sofa and create a haven for chilling out.

Children's playroom
Free your main living space of the kids' toys and gear by making the extension a place for the children to play, watch TV and do their homework.

Laundry room
With a side extension usually next to the kitchen, a laundry room is a great option as it means you can move the appliances out of the kitchen - creating more space in there.
