If you’re thinking of selling your home this year, or even if you’re just thinking of giving it a bit of a makeover, there are a few major (and minor) upgrades that will really make a difference.
Everyone can do a bit of painting, repair a fence, and change out the sofa, but investing a decent pot of money into your home can really pay dividends in the end.Multi-Use Space
If you’re like the thousands of Americans now working from home and educating your kids from home, you’ll probably be looking for a way to make the most out of your space.
Having multi-use spaces is a great way to maximize what you’ve got and make sure that everyone is catered for.
It’s not just multi-use spaces either; having somewhere to escape to is just as important, especially if you’ve spent the last few months stuck inside with your whole family!
Here are five upgrades that you can do to your home to maximize its potential for either new owners or your family moving forward.
A Great Heating and Cooling System
Nothing beats a lovely warm home to come home to in the winter or a cool home to retreat to in the middle of summer, which is why you need a decent cooling and heating system in your home.
This isn’t a small change, though, so be sure to hire a professional plumbing service like Red Oak Plumbing who are experts at installing heating and cooling systems in residential properties.
A New Kitchen
Your kitchen may be “just fine” the way it is, but kitchen gadgetry has come on a lot in the last few years, and it’s time you invested!
From wi-fi coffee machines to pop-up plug sockets, there are penny of ways you can upgrade your kitchen without fitting a new kitchen, but if you really want to maximize the benefits, get in an expert kitchen designer and treat yourself to an overhaul of the most used room in the house.
New Environmentally Friendly Windows and Doors
Double glazing is old news; today’s widows and doors have special filters and coatings to maximize the glass’s insulation and heat-reflective properties.
This is a great way to get your home looking good and being more environmentally conscious too.
A Garden Room
A versatile multi-use garden room is a great addition to any home, especially if it’s fully contained with its own heating and lighting.
If you could add plumbing in there, too, you could effectively create your own little annex for guests or for the teenagers to get them out of your hair.
A Corner Bath
There’s nothing like relaxing in the tub after a long and hard day, and there’s nothing quite like a decent corner bath with all of the jets to really make you feel like you’re taking a spa day!
Maximize your bathroom with a roomy corner bath, a decent power shower, and maybe even a warming towel rail to make every bathroom feel like spa time!
