Off-Street Parking: A Ballad in Three Parts

Posted on: 12/07/2016

Most people own a car these days, but most properties haven’t quite caught up with that. Off-street parking is one of the most desirable things any home can have, and adding a driveway is one of the single most important things you can do to add value to your home. If you’re still on the fence about giving your driveway some TLC, see if this changes your mind. Does this story sound familiar?


How It Used to Be


It was a real pain, wasn’t it? Getting home late to find all the parking spots on the street outside your house were taken. Same on the opposite side too. You wound up parking two streets away and then had to manoeuvre the shopping, a screaming toddler and your laptop from the car to the house without leaving any of them anywhere vulnerable. When it was time to move house, you remembered that day (and others like it) off-street parking was high on your list of priorities.  


What You Got Used To


The car is parked by the house now. You’ve got your guaranteed parking spot. The car sits in the two muddy divots that have been gradually getting deeper in the years since you moved in. The weeds are back as well. You must remember to buy some weed killer next time you are in the garden centre. Mind you, that young sycamore is looking like it might need something stronger than weed killer.
