House Value Increases due to
Domestic Turntable Installation
Case Study No. 7
Hilltop detached property overlooking 3 bays and the sea, Jersey
The Problem:
A charming detached home with open views over the sea and 3 sandy bays was extremely motor vehicle unfriendly. Access is down a steep slope, turning 90 degrees in to a small courtyard in front of the double garage. In fact, in the wet, it was simply not possible to get a car out of the garage and reverse up and around the steep gradient. Both cars were therefore reluctantly parked overnight on the driveway of a very understanding neighbour. The solution was spotted in the Daily Star, and the rest is history.
The Solution:
The 3.5M (11’6”) diameter CPS Car Turntable with hydraulic motor drive and in-car control, sited in front of the garage door and a slight widening of the access into the courtyard, proved to be the complete answer. The delighted owners were pleasantly surprised when a local estate agent advised them that the turntable added four times the installation cost to the value of their home. A sound investment, when the initial brief was to enhance the amenities they enjoyed from their home, to use the garage and to allow cars to easily drive forwards in and out of their property.
