With an increasing number of people working from home, many house hunters appreciate the availability of a garden office.
On average, a garden office that is fully equipped with electric and water supply as well as heating can add up to 10 per cent to the value of your property, as it will effectively increase your home's overall floor space.
In addition to using it as an office, the new building could also be utilised as an extension to the home, a breakout room for children (or adults) or for guests to stay overnight - though it cannot be used as a permanent dwelling.
With regard to the value, a home office can certainly improve the saleability of the house. However, it depends on the specification as basic ones are really not much more than a large garden shed.
