Topics: Additions | January 25, 2024

One of the most unique home additions Moss Building and Design offers is the “pop top” addition. This is a fun, albeit complicated, addition that takes a lot of designing and planning, but the result is a fully functional additional story on your house. If you are interested in expanding the square footage of your house, sometimes building up instead of out is the only option. At Moss, we specialize in the pop top addition.

Additional Living Space 

Just like the large skyscrapers in any major city, building up instead of out is necessary because real estate is limited. While some homeowners may enjoy acres of property, many homeowners (especially those in Northern Virginia) need to build up if they want to add additional living space. This is where a pop top is the perfect addition. Pop tops are an additional story built on top of the existing structure. 

Pop top additions are a great way to add extra living space to your current home, especially additional bedrooms and bathrooms. The addition could be as simple as adding one additional room, or and entire story with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms can be added. Pop top additions can add thousands of square feet onto your existing property, providing the homeowner with plenty of additional living space.

Added Home Value 

While pop top additions do have an upfront cost, some of that cost can be mitigated through added home value. A huge component of home value is bedroom and bathroom size and number, and a pop top addition that adds bedrooms and bathrooms will usually increase your home value substantially. With our expert designers, architects, and contractors, Moss can design and build a pop top addition that seamlessly fits with your existing structure!

Expand the House You Love 

A lot of homeowners are in the constant struggle of feeling their living area needs upgraded while also not wanting to move. This is why an addition or remodel, especially a pop top addition, can solve that problem. By getting a pop top addition, homeowners can get that feel of moving into a brand-new house while also still having the emotional and sentimental attachment to the house they have grown to love.
