While conservatories are often a big factor in choosing a new home, with 72% of people in a UK study reporting that the extra space swayed their decision, so many of us don’t put ours to good use. The majority of people use their conservatory as a sort of miscellaneous room for all sorts of activities - it often doesn’t have its own specific purpose, so the space that was once attractive ends up being wasted.
Just in case you have no idea where to begin, the TopTower team have come up with some ingenious ways to maximise this space by transforming your conservatory into a room with purpose. Keep reading to be inspired!
Office
It seems like remote working is here to stay so, instead of just putting up with whatever surface is free at the time, why not invest in a more permanent solution and convert your conservatory into an office?
With some good insulation, adjustable blinds and a strong internet connection, your conservatory could be a bright, calming space in which to be your most productive self. It could even double up as a homework/study space in the evenings, if you have children.
We recommend getting your hands on a heating source ahead of the winter months though, as the temperature can drop considerably (unless you’ve taken steps to prevent this).
Home gym
Many of us adapted to working out at home during the coronavirus pandemic, aided by the increased availability of online resources - research has shown that most people actually prefer working out in the comfort of their own home. So, if you like keeping fit and healthy, converting your conservatory into a home gym tailored to your needs would certainly be a worthwhile investment.
It’s the perfect way to feel like you’re exercising outdoors, but with the added bonus of not falling victim to the famously unpredictable British weather.
Playroom or games room
If you have kids, what better way to use your conservatory space than turning it into a playroom! Alternatively, if your kids are a little older, or you enjoy a game or two yourself, a fully decked-out games room would be perfect. It could even boast a combination of toys, board games and the most popular video games, catering to the whole family in one easy move.
A conservatory games room creates an entirely separate space for silly, youthful fun and games, meaning your main living room can be used for blissful, uninterrupted relaxation while the children are playing down the hall. This option would also offer additional storage space for toys and games, ensuring your home stays tidy and free of mess (although perhaps not for very long).
With conservatories leading out into the garden, it could be particularly handy to have the conservatory as a playroom in the summer months, as it means your child can play both indoors and outdoors quite easily.
