loft conversion
Attic becomes room
A loft conversion is the transformation of an attic or unused upper space into livable rooms—typically bedrooms, offices, or bathrooms.
The term is more common in British English, where loft means attic.
A loft conversion adds living space without expanding the building's footprint: The loft conversion gave us a fourth bedroom.
