In the ever-changing realm of interior design, renovation and décor styles are in a state of constant evolution. Trends are influenced by technological advancements and cultural shifts, along with individual preferences that may be passed from one generation to the next.
From maximalist abundance to minimalist bliss, homeowners want to personalise their spaces by embracing meaningful aesthetics. In this article, we’ll delve into four current renovation trends and inspiration for your next project.
4 renovation projects to increase the value of your home
- Garden upgrades
There are so many ways to enhance your garden and build on the value it already gives your property. With changes like landscaping, decking or outdoor seating areas, you can = enhance the aesthetic value of your home and increase its chances of selling sooner.
In a recent survey by fitted furniture experts Hammonds, gardens were found to be the most important feature for current house hunters. Respondents said they’d offer an additional £5,044 on average for a home with more outdoor space.
It’s not just big gardens that offer an incentive for buyers. Even with a small area, you can create an incredible space for entertaining and enjoying long summer evening with friends.
- Built-in storage
Incorporate built-in storage solutions like shelving units, bespoke cabinets, and walk-in wardrobes to enhance functionality within your home. With an optimised use of space, you can ensure that you only have well-organised storage areas that don’t distract from your interior.
This not only creates a sense of order and cleanliness in your home but make your home more efficient too. When prospective buyers look around your home, they will look for ways to make their living space more enjoyable too. Hammonds’ survey found that Brits would offer around £3,408 for built-in storage.
- Kitchen islands
Kitchen islands make a popular interior feature in British homes
If you’re seriously considering fitting an island, it’s important to do your research and spend time choosing the right worktop material. Do you need your island to be a practical space for chopping ingredients and preparing meals, or would you prefer something smooth and stylish for entertaining guests? Think about practicality, aesthetics and durability.
From glossy tiles to rustic tabletops, there are so many ways to design an island that’s truly unique. According to Hammonds’ survey, prospective buyers would pay an additional £3,386 for a kitchen island.
- Cosy areas
Lastly, we always recommend building cosy areas where the whole family can relax and unwind. For those lazy Sunday mornings and cosy autumnal evenings, it’s so important to create separate zones from the heart of the household. You may try including an insect mesh to keep unwanted bugs out while enjoying the outdoors.
Whether it’s a reading area or a cinema room, you choose what to make of your cosy area. With some creativity and the right materials, you can turn the quiet space into anything you wish. Plenty of storage space is sought after by most prospective buyers – along with the ability to keep work and play separate.
Conclusion
Before you start your interior design project, remember that there are some features that might not fetch you a profit when you come to sell your home. These include bi-fold doors and smart home features, which Hammonds estimate to only fetch just over £2,600 extra. Keep your focus on storage space and stylish zones in your home, ready to entertain and impress.
