What Is a Home Addition?

A home addition is the construction of new living space that extends your home's footprint or adds a second story, increasing your total square footage. Home additions can include new bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas, in-law suites, or sunrooms — all seamlessly integrated with your existing home's architecture, systems, and design.
