How We Bring Your Home Addition to Life
Every home addition begins with a conversation. We take the time to explore your goals, discuss timelines, and consider how the project may impact your day-to-day living. From material recommendations to design possibilities, our team offers thoughtful guidance at every step. Let’s explore your vision together, and we’ll develop a detailed plan that brings it to life – clearly, confidently, and with care. Explore the range of thoughtful additions we can design for you.
Sunroom Additions
A sunroom addition offers a bright, inviting space to relax, unwind, or entertain – bringing the beauty of the outdoors into the comfort of your home. Thoughtfully designed to complement your existing layout, a sunroom creates a seamless connection between inside and out, offering year-round enjoyment without the need to worry about the weather.
Garage Additions
A well-designed garage offers more than parking – it provides flexible space for vehicles, hobbies, storage, and the tools that support your lifestyle. Whether attached or freestanding, a garage can be thoughtfully integrated to enhance both function and flow. If your current garage no longer meets your needs, expanding or adding a new one can provide the extra space you’ve been looking for, all while blending seamlessly with your home and elevating its curb appeal.
Second-Story Additions
A second-story addition is a refined way to expand your living space without enlarging your home’s footprint. Whether building above a single-story home or extending over an existing addition, this versatile option creates room for a growing family, a serene guest suite, a private office, or a space devoted to your hobbies. With care and precision, we ensure your second-story addition enhances both the beauty and harmony of your home.
Mobility and Accessibility Additions
Create a home that supports comfort, safety, and accessibility for everyone. Whether it’s adding a main-floor bedroom or bathroom, adapting key living spaces, or designing with future aging-in-place in mind, we help you enhance both the beauty and functionality of your home. Thoughtful, well-planned additions ensure your space remains welcoming and practical for every stage of life.
Bump-Out Additions
By extending the footprint just a few feet, a bump-out provides valuable extra space – perfect for expanding your kitchen, enlarging a bathroom, adding a mudroom, or enhancing the flow of an entryway. It’s a subtle change that can bring a meaningful difference to your everyday life.
Multiple Room Additions
When your home needs more than just a little extra space, multiple-room additions offer an efficient and cohesive solution. Our Amsted Design-Build team will work closely with you to develop a plan that brings together several projects – whether it’s combining a sunroom and kitchen expansion, adding rooms along one side of the house, or creating a second-story addition. Tackling these upgrades together not only streamlines the process but can often maximize your investment.
In your consultation meeting, our design team will guide you through the process, taking the time to understand your priorities, lifestyle, and budget – so you can make confident decisions and get the most from your home.
Decorative Details That Elevate Your Space
One of the most exciting parts of a home addition is making it your own, choosing the design details that add personality, style, and that unmistakable “wow” factor each time you walk through the door.
From distinctive flooring choices like wood planks, stone tiles, or radiant heated floors (a popular favorite in bathroom renovations) to French doors that open up a sunroom or kitchen, every element is an opportunity to elevate your space. Strong storm doors can enhance a garage or finished basement, while a custom-designed front or foyer door creates a stunning first impression.
Custom cabinetry and millwork bring both function and beauty, giving you storage tailored to your needs and aesthetics that reflect your unique style. And don’t forget the often-overlooked fifth wall, your ceiling. Whether through coffered designs, drop ceilings, or decorative tiles, ceilings can transform a room and add a layer of craftsmanship that ties everything together.
