Key Ways To Update Your Home In 2021

in Real Estate

Updating your home can significantly enhance its value, improve its look, and make it safer and more secure. Investing in home improvement projects are great investments to make as long as you focus on key features that’ll benefit you for years to come. Doing so can be really helpful for you, especially if you’re looking to sell your house in the future. Potential homebuyers will surely appreciate the updates and improvements you’ve made to your house.

Here are key home improvement projects that you should consider if you want to update your home this year.

  • Update Your Kitchen

They say the kitchen is the most important part of any home, so let 2021 be the year when you’ll fall in love with it! The easiest and simplest way to remodel your kitchen and give it a fresh look in 2021 is to update the countertops, add new lighting fixtures, and change the appliance handles. The smaller your countertops will be, the more cost-efficient this home improvement project will be. Updating your countertops can also add value to your home and will serve your family during a fast house sale.

Another way of updating your countertop is to repaint it with a solid paint color then add some marble spray paint, and top it with a glaze coat. While you’re at it, you can also use the same base paint for your appliance handles and light fixtures in the entire kitchen together. Once done, you’ll surely marvel at your DIY home improvement project as it makes your kitchen look and feel more luxurious!

  • Remodel Your Basement

A solid and updated basement makes for a wonderful addition to any type of home. It can even increase the value of your home. During severe weather conditions such as strong wind storms and tornadoes, your basement can provide the best protection for your family. Aside from that, basements can also be very useful as storage for just about anything. You can store food supplies like canned goods in your basement in case of store shortages during a pandemic.

You might think that decorating your basement is unnecessary, but a dry, nicely decorated basement can serve as a home office or a kid’s play area. There are even homeowners who use their remodeled basement as a recreation room for parties, occasions, and celebrations.

To remodel your basement, consider adding newly painted floors, changing its flooring, or adding some new furniture. If you want to make your basement look more wonderful, comfortable, and livable, consider what other features you can add to it just like you do with the other parts of your house.

  • Update Your Bathrooms

Updating our bathrooms will not just make them look beautiful, but also safe to use, especially for seniors. This is really helpful for our older family members who may require extra support when going to the bathroom without falling or slipping.

Adding handrails in the shower or in the bathtub can be really helpful, especially if your bathrooms have a higher toilet base. Also, if there’s someone in your household who is in a wheelchair, it’s best to lower the sinks and counter areas so that they won’t have a hard time using your bathroom.

You might also want to redecorate your bathroom by updating its flooring and window treatments. You can also install new tiles, change the bathroom doors, or hang a new shower curtain.

Any of these additions and updates can have a great impact on the safety and appearance of your bathroom. So, you better take a close look at your bathrooms and see how you can update them.

  • Don’t Forget Your Exterior Or Outdoor Space

If you haven’t done some work on your exterior or outdoor space before, this year might be the best time to do it.

Make the most of your empty lawn by building a deck, porch, or patio. While you’re at it, be sure to cover your lawn with a roof extension which will provide shade in the summer and shelter when it’s raining outside.

Your outdoor space can be a good place for leisure and relaxation if you’ve done some work on it. It can also be used for entertainment like lawn games for the family when the weather is nice. It’s best to work on your outdoor space in early or late spring so that it’ll be ready by summer.

Conclusion

You don’t really have to update your entire home just to make it more comfortable, livable, and beautiful. Focusing on some key areas of your home and updating them can make for major home improvement projects that you’ll surely appreciate for a long time. Just like any home improvement projects, be sure to create a plan first and check the cost and time required for the updates you want to make to your home this year.
