Outdoor SunSpaces News

When you think of extending your living space, your first instinct might be to look inward—knocking down walls or building an extra room inside your house. But what if the best extension is actually just a few steps outside your door? A SunSpace glass veranda or garden room could be exactly what you're looking for.

SunSpaces are modern garden rooms or verandas that let you enjoy your garden in any season, offering a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. With their elegant design and adaptable features, SunSpaces offer an alternative to traditional home extensions that often require heavy insulation, structural changes, and ongoing maintenance. Let's explore why a SunSpace could be the best decision for expanding your outdoor living space without the hassle of a typical extension.

What Are SunSpaces?

Our stylish and contemporary verandas and  glass sunrooms provide an alternative to the traditional conservatory. Extend your garden and enjoy more time outdoors, no matter the weather. SunSpaces’ glass sunrooms are constructed using superior materials (primarily high-strength aluminium) and retain their stylish appearance for years after installation. 

Whether you're looking for a relaxing sunroom, veranda, or even an additional outdoor area, a SunSpace can enhance your garden’s functionality while adding a stylish touch to your property.

Why Choose a SunSpace Over a Traditional Home Extension?

  1. Versatile Use All Year Round: SunSpaces can be used in a variety of ways throughout the year. In summer, you can bask in the sun while staying cool under the shaded roof. In colder months, you can use the space as a cozy retreat to enjoy the view of your garden without braving the elements. With the ability to close off the space with sliding doors or retractable glass walls, you have total control over the temperature and airflow. We also offer outdoor heater units, making it a truly year-round space.
  2. Maximise Natural Light: One of the standout features of a SunSpace is its ability to flood the room with natural light, thanks to the large glass panels and transparent roofs. Traditional home extensions may not offer the same level of natural light, especially if they involve building over windows or altering the flow of sunlight in your existing rooms.
  3. Seamless Connection to Your Garden: A SunSpace allows for a unique connection between your home and your garden. Unlike a traditional extension, which may feel like a separate room, a SunSpace opens up directly into your garden, offering panoramic views and easy access to the outdoors. You can transform your garden into an extended living space, where you can entertain guests, enjoy family meals, or simply relax surrounded by greenery—without the barrier of a wall or door.
  4. No Planning Permission in Most Cases: Depending on your location and the size of your SunSpace, you may not need planning permission to install it, as it often qualifies as a "permitted development" under UK law. This makes it a much quicker and easier process compared to a traditional home extension.
  5. A Sustainable Option: In today’s eco-conscious world, sustainability is a key factor in any home improvement decision. SunSpaces’ use of natural light means you may save on electricity costs. Our verandas and garden rooms also offer materials that are environmentally friendly and built to last, ensuring that your garden extension is not only beautiful but also sustainable.

 

Benefits of a SunSpace for Your Lifestyle

  • Extra Living Space: Whether you're using it as an extra living room, office, or playroom for children, a SunSpace gives you flexible living options without the disruption of a full home extension.
  • Perfect for Entertaining: Imagine hosting a summer BBQ with friends, or an intimate dinner party surrounded by your garden’s beauty. The open and airy feel of a SunSpace offers the ideal setting for entertaining.
  • Connection with Nature: If you love being outdoors, a SunSpace is the perfect way to enjoy the sights, sounds, and smells of nature without having to brave the elements.
  • Increased Property Value: A well-designed SunSpace can enhance the overall value of your property. It not only adds extra square footage but also increases the aesthetic appeal and functionality of your home.

Conclusion

If you're looking for an easy and stylish way to expand your outdoor space and enjoy your garden year-round, a SunSpace veranda or sunroom is an excellent choice. It provides a versatile, cost-effective, and sustainable alternative to traditional home extensions, offering benefits like natural light, a seamless connection to your garden, and year-round comfort.

Whether you’re seeking extra living space, a new dining area, or simply a quiet retreat to unwind, a SunSpace can give you the flexibility to make the most of your property—without the stress and expense of a traditional home extension.
