Double-Storey Extensions – Maximise Space, Add Value
If you have the space, a double-storey extension is one of the most effective ways to significantly increase your living area and add long-term value to your home.
​
Typically built to the rear or side, double-storey extensions can also wrap around your property, opening up exciting new layout possibilities and transforming the way you use your home.
​
At Edge Construction, we’re here to guide you through the entire journey. Led by experienced builder Ben Woozley, our team is committed to delivering thoughtful, high-quality extensions that enhance your home and your lifestyle.

Double-Storey Extension Ideas
A double-storey extension can completely transform the look and feel of your home, offering a balanced increase in space across both floors. It’s a smart way to expand your living area without creating a mismatch between upstairs and downstairs.
​
On the ground floor, opening up internal walls can create generous open-plan spaces. These can still be zoned with furniture, lighting or colour, giving you flexibility while maintaining flow. It’s important to make sure your new space enhances your existing layout, not detracts from it, by avoiding dark or cramped corners.
​
Upstairs, careful planning is key. Think about how you’ll access the new rooms and minimise disruption to your current layout. Most people opt to add a new bedroom, but it’s the extra touches, like a private ensuite, walk-in wardrobe or clever built-in storage, that really enhance the space and add long-term value.
