Updating Your Home with a Thoughtfully Designed Addition

There’s a certain charm that comes with living in Park City, surrounded by majestic mountains, fresh air, and a community that values both outdoor adventures and refined living. As families grow and lifestyles shift, many homeowners find themselves craving more space without wanting to leave the neighborhood they love. That’s where a custom home addition can make all the difference. At McKenna Builds, we specialize in designing and constructing additions that seamlessly blend into your existing property—enhancing both style and functionality.


Why Choose a Home Addition?

  1. Preserve Your Location: If you adore your current home’s surroundings, an addition allows you to stay put while still gaining valuable square footage. You can avoid the stress of moving or finding a new property by simply expanding the space you already cherish.

  2. Increase Property Value: A well-planned, high-quality addition can significantly boost your home’s market value. Buyers often look for flexible, comfortable layouts; adding rooms or expanding common areas can make your property more appealing should you ever decide to sell.

  3. Customization and Comfort: One of the greatest advantages of a home addition is the ability to tailor each new room to your specific needs. Whether it’s a family room that doubles as a sunlit retreat or a guest suite for hosting visitors, your addition can reflect your personal taste and lifestyle.


Types of Home Additions to Consider


1. Expansive Family Room: For those who love to entertain or just need extra space for day-to-day living, adding a larger family room can provide a warm, open gathering place. Large windows with mountain views, cozy fireplace features, and integrated seating areas can all be part of a thoughtful design that fits beautifully into your Park City home.

2. Luxurious Primary Suite: A new primary suite can offer the privacy and comfort you’ve always envisioned—think spa-inspired bathroom fixtures, ample closet space, and direct access to outdoor living areas. By planning a suite that’s set apart from the main hustle and bustle, you’ll create a personal retreat reminiscent of a mountain getaway.

3. Guest or In-Law Suite: Hosting loved ones is a big part of life in Park City. A guest suite or in-law addition can provide family members and visitors with their own sanctuary, complete with a private bathroom and a comfortable sitting area. This not only offers convenience but also adds to the overall value and versatility of your home.

4. Home Office or Studio: Remote work and creative pursuits are increasingly common today. Incorporating a dedicated office or studio can add immense functionality to your property, especially if it’s designed with productivity and inspiration in mind—think spacious built-ins, natural lighting, and quick access to the rest of the home’s amenities.

Key Considerations for a Successful Home Addition

  1. Architectural Harmony: A seamless blend between the new addition and the original structure is essential. We focus on matching or complementing existing architectural details, rooflines, and exterior materials to ensure your home looks cohesive from every angle.

  2. Local Expertise and Regulations: Building in Park City comes with unique zoning requirements, HOA guidelines, and environmental considerations. Our team at McKenna Builds is well-versed in local regulations, ensuring a smooth process from permits to inspections.

  3. Timely Project Management: Renovations can be disruptive, but a clear timeline and open communication help minimize stress. We provide regular updates and coordinate tasks efficiently, so you know exactly where your project stands.

  4. Quality Materials and Craftsmanship: From insulated windows that capture breathtaking views to top-notch finishes that withstand everyday wear and tear, we recommend materials known for their beauty and durability—ensuring your addition remains a long-term investment you can enjoy for years to come.
