Since you would be changing the roof line, you would probably have to shift the centerline of the peak on the roof. This would require the entire truss system to be replaced. The idea of adding a couple of feet sounds simple until you figure all the work that has to be done to make everything look right and be functional.

I agree with another poster. You would probably be better off putchasing a new home with more square feet to meet your requirements.
