Bedroom Additions

Expanding your home with a new bedroom goes beyond increasing square footage. It adds space, style, and value. Picture a luxurious primary suite with a spa-like ensuite and spacious walk-in closet, or a cozy guest room perfect for hosting family and friends.

When it comes to the location of your new bedroom addition, the possibilities are endless and include the attic, basement, or an existing extension. Design considerations range from ample storage space and furniture to noise levels, views, and natural light.

You can also incorporate energy-efficient features like insulated windows, LED lighting, and solar-powered skylights to reduce your environmental impact and save on utility bills.

Second-Story Additions

Need more room to grow? Expanding upward is a terrific way to maximize living space without altering your Elmhurst home’s footprint.

LivCo designs and constructs second-story additions that transform your home, whether adding a spacious family room, home office, or workout room. Building a primary suite on the second floor provides a quiet and private retreat from the hustle and bustle of the main living area.

Whatever addition you choose, it’s sure to enhance your home’s functionality and increase its value. Key considerations when adding upward include ensuring structural integrity and seamless integration with your home’s existing architecture.

Mudroom Additions

The Chicago area is no stranger to all types of inclement weather. A mudroom addition protects your home’s floors from rain, snow, and slush, something that’s especially appealing to families with children and pets.

Incorporating features like cubbies and shelving for coats, shoes, and boots and durable flooring keep mud and dirt contained in a controllable area.

With the proper design elements, a mudroom can be an indispensable addition to any home. LivCo can help you design a mudroom that works best for your family.

For instance, a “drop zone” provides a place to keep keys and mail handy. USB and electrical outlets make charging devices and small household appliances like hand vacs easy and convenient. You can even add an attached laundry room or custom storage for seasonal clothing, linens, and more.
