New Rules
The new rules will allow land that has been designated for the use of new homes, schools, shops and commercial buildings and offices will receive an automatic go-ahead, and let firms start building.

A loft conversion is an excellent way of adding some space and value to your property cost-effectively. If you have got an attic that’s still not being used for anything other than storing unwanted goods that you will never use, then you’re in luck and you could claim this unused space and turn it into a real usable, functional and liveable area, depending on your needs and taste. Sometimes it's more cost effective to stay in your existing house and complete a loft conversion or add an extension to gain that extra space instead of moving to reach the same goal. 

Just a few ideas what you could use the new space for

• New Office Area and work from home in comfort
• Extra bedroom as your family increases in size
• Bedroom with an ensuite bathroom if you have the room for this
• A gym or fitness area, save a fortune on gym fees and travelling time
• What about a man cave or Woman cave, possibilities here are endless
• You could just go for a basic conversion if you just want a clean storage area
• Extra lounge for the children or yourselves to relax and unwind
• You could use as a granny flat for an elderly family member 
• A large family bathroom or master bedroom
• A tranquil place to concentrate more on your hobbies 
• If your passion is music you could turn into a music room or even a recording studio
• If you run a business from home and need storage, this could work well for that extra space
• Need a private study? A Loft conversion could be your perfect choice
• ​Home cinema 
  

The possibilities are endless, let your imagination run wild, don't move improve!
