When you live in one London’s more desirable properties, it can be a difficult decision to move on because you are looking for something a little bit more modern that suits your modern family life a little better. You may be reluctant to sacrifice the location of your property and you may be reluctant to move away from the building itself if it is architecturally impressive.

Of course, there is an alternative to making a move of this kind. You could choose to stay in the same property, but to invest a bit of money on a renovation project to bring the house up to date. For house renovation, London is actually ahead of the game – largely because of the proliferation of older properties in the capital.

Modern design and build companies are capable of introducing all sorts of contemporary techniques to make your home more energy-efficient and more modern in terms of design and architecture on the inside. These are just the sort of methods you require for you to hold onto your home and make sure it meets all of your practical and aesthetic expectations for years to come.

Living in West London is fantastic but your money does not go as far as it would in other parts of the country. This is particularly the case in the property market. West London property costs more than property around the rest of the country because there is such demand to be in this amazing, trendy area.

If you have invested in a house in West London you will probably already be aware that you could enjoy more space elsewhere. However, no-one can argue with your choice of location. Furthermore, you are able to embrace fantastic new design changes, brought forward by residential architects which will give you more space than you ever thought possible in your existing West London property.

Successful renovations are being conducted all the time by professional residential architects in West London. They have the project managing skills to bring all parts of a renovation together, which will result in your property seemingly expanding on the inside creating more space, with no hassle. Residential architects create more space by opening up the interiors of properties without extending it, meaning the current size or restrictions on your property do not play a role. Opening rooms out and admitting more natural light helps to create genuine space at the same time as creating the illusion of more space, which is just as effective in terms of comfort at home.

Revamp your house so that you can work from home

Working from home is a fabulous option if the nature of your work allows for it. Not everyone is afforded the luxury of working from home, but there are some real advantages to this way of doing things. For a start, you can organise each working day around your lifestyle and around the particular needs of your family and household at large.

Working from home also gives you the opportunity to save time and money by avoiding the daily commute. There are plenty of other reasons why working from home is such a good idea. The only issue is whether your home in London is capable of accommodating your working space as well as your living space.

A good way of making sure that this is the case is if you actually address the matter practically. If you decide you want to work from home then you could back up the decision by renovating your home accordingly. Extending will give you extra space, but you could also revamp your interiors to allow you a bit of space that you can dedicate to your work rather than your day to day life.
