In today’s tough property market, it’s essential to make your house as appealing and satisfying to potential buyers as possible. A sought after house is a valuable house. So how do you make your home as good as it can be and maximize its value? Here’s a home improvement guide from Somerset windows and doors experts Notaro Windows.
Conversion Projects
Utilise all the space you have available to you! Loft & basement conversions are a solid investment, providing your prospective buyers a new room with a whole new dynamic. With some of the smallest new homes in Europe, sellers in the UK must make every inch of space count. If you’re not keen on the costs of conversions, just ensure your attic or basement is fully insulated!
Planning Permission
Gaining consent for improvements such as an extension or a stand-alone building will inevitably add an incentive to buyers – even if the work isn’t carried out. Not only have you saved them the hassle of obtaining permission, but you’ve also guaranteed the chance to expand, assuming permission is granted of course.
Interior
To make the inside of your house as appealing as possible, maximize it for three key aspects; space, light and quality. De-clutter your home and rethink furniture layout to ensure you’re making the most of the space you have. Mirrors are an effective little trick to give the perception of more space whilst also spreading light around your rooms. In terms of quality, brush up on some home maintenance tips and ensure you fix all superficial defects like cracks, marked walls, peeling paint and tap drips.
Exterior
As important as the interior, exterior is the first point of contact for your prospective buyers. The exterior casts the first judgment for your buyer. Neat & tidy gardens, painted walls and an aesthetically pleasing front door will set the tone for the rest of your home. This first reaction to your home is what’s known as ‘kerb appeal’ because it’s immediately formed once they pull up!
Conservatory & Orangeries
Conservatories and orangeries in Somerset are a great way to boost both home appeal, light and space. With a comprehensive range of styles available, integrating a new structure into your home is essential and easy. Whether you use the new conservatory as an open kitchen, office space or a dining room, your house’s value will rise. Modern, high quality conservatories and orangeries are heat retaining & energy efficient too.
Parking Spaces
In cities and towns, off-street parking spaces are dime a dozen. In many cases, replacing a front lawn for car parking is a worthwhile move that can add significant value to your house. Just make sure that land is yours! Why not take a look at our driveways in Somerset for some inspiration?
Windows & Doors
The reasons for new windows & doors adding value to your home are plentiful. From ensuring the security of your home to cutting down the energy bill and retaining heat, replacement windows are essential if your home’s current windows are falling behind. New windows can also add a significant boost to your homes character. Georgian, aluminium, casement or sliding sash windows all add a different dynamic to your home’s appearance – the question is, which one will you chose? Take a look at our energy efficient windows in Somerset today!
