Don't assume that all extensions are huge, costly affairs, as that could mean you never consider looking into them. Ask any builder or architect and they'll tell you there are countless ways to add valuable extra space to your home without needing to rob a bank.

In case you aren't ready to believe us, we found some terrific pictures of modest, simple and reasonably-priced home improvement projects that will inspire you to start dreaming up one of your own.

Now's the time to start thinking about that new kitchen or extended living room you've always wanted!

1. Simple glass box design

It won't have taken much too time to design nor build, thus making it far cheaper than some extensions.

2. Simple and without fancy finishes

All this glazing will have reduced the material costs no end.

3. A simple step-down design

This flat roof extension has added valuable extra living space!

4. Small can be mighty handy

As this little and lovely extension shows! The wood cladding overshadows a simple design.

Though wide, this extension is so basic in its design and construction that it will have been surprisingly reasonable, cost-wise.

These basic builds are often cheaper than you expect them to be.

10. No parking required

When a connected garage is not needed, they can be quickly and easily converted into extra rooms or extensions of existing living spaces.

To keep costs really low, you can choose a simple flat roof extension design before finishing the exterior at a later date with a render or cladding of your choice.

12. Unexpected delight

This extension is very handsome and, thanks to the timber structure, must have been surprisingly cheap to build too!

13. A boxy add-on to the rear of a house

This type of extension is extremely popular and reasonable due to so many ready-to-use templates being available.

14. Basically beautiful

Barely more than a conservatory with some solid stone wall detailing, this extension must have gone up in a matter of days and we don't think it will have hurt the pocket too much.

15. Simple, small and built from timber

This dining room extension is the perfect home enlarger for people on a tight budget.

16. A jutting square extension with a flat roof

Won't need a lot of expensive design work to be completed before it can be built, thereby making this style one of the most purse-friendly.
