Estimated Read Time: ~2 minutes
Are yall thinking about expanding your home in 2025? You're not alone. More homeowners than ever are choosing to build additions rather than move — whether it's to accommodate a growing family, add a home office, or create the perfect guest suite. At Bri the Builder LLC, we’ve seen a big shift in the types of additions clients are requesting this year. Adding addition is a perfect way to make the house that’s in the perfect location work for you.
Here are the most popular home addition trends in 2025 — and how they might fit your lifestyle.
Multi-Generational Living Spaces (In-Law Suites)
With rising housing costs and a greater focus on family care, in-law suites are one of the fastest-growing home addition requests. These spaces often include a private bedroom, bathroom, sitting area, and sometimes even a kitchenette with a separate entrance.
Why homeowners love it:
Keeps aging parents close by
Offers privacy for adult children
Can increase resale value or even be used as a rental suite (where permitted)
Can be converted to home business use
Home Offices & Flexible Workspaces
Remote and hybrid work are here to stay. Many homeowners are ditching makeshift setups and opting for professionally built offices or flex rooms that double as guest rooms, hobby spaces, or study nooks.
Design features in demand:
Built-in shelving
Sound insulation
Large windows for natural light
Direct access to the outdoors or garden
Sunrooms & All-Season Rooms
These bright, airy additions provide a connection to the outdoors with the comfort of being inside — perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or using as a plant-filled reading nook.
2025 trend:
Many homeowners are opting for four-season sunrooms with HVAC, insulation, and large glass doors to maximize year-round use.
