5 Ways to Update Your Natick Home for the Year

Updating your home this year is an excellent way to increase its value before you list it on the Natick real estate market. Even small improvements make a big difference and attract more buyers and more offers.

Install New Flooring

The floors are sometimes neglected when it comes to styling a room. But, installing a new floor in your kitchen, living room or bathroom can make a big difference. Go for new carpet, hardwood or tile and give a room a much-needed update that impresses buyers.

Redo Your Kitchen Cabinets and Counters

The kitchen is one of the major rooms in any home, whether you consider yourself a chef or not. Make this space the ideal gathering place to meet with family and friends and enjoy a good meal. Updated kitchens are also highly sought after by house hunters, so this update can help generate more interest in your home.

You can go all out and install new cabinets and counters or you can just update the ones you have with new paint or stain. Don’t forget to add new cupboard knobs and drawer pulls for the perfect finishing touch.

Repaint with Style

The paint colors you use make a big difference in how your home feels. Warm colors make a space feel cozy while cool colors can make it feel bigger and more cheery. But, you don’t have to stick with a traditional paint job. Get creative and use paint to add interest and character to your home.

Consider painting crown molding a contrasting color, painting just one wall in a room or painting the space below a chair rail a different color than the rest of the wall.

Transform a Room into Something New 

You can easily change the entire function and purpose of a room just by changing the décor and furniture. This strategy can help you add an extra bedroom, home office, hobby room, entertainment room, or any other space that will make your home stand out and attract buyers.

Start by deciding what you want to use the room for and then update things like paint, flooring and light fixtures. Then, arrange the necessary furniture and, voila! You have an entirely new room.

Upgrade Your Landscaping

Update the outside of your home and increase its curb appeal by making some changes to your landscaping. You can redo a flowerbed and plant some new trees or you can take on bigger projects like installing new fences, water features and pathways.

The landscaping of your home can make it stand out in your neighborhood, feel welcoming and attract buyers as they come to tour your house. Make the most of this first impression by using your landscaping to its fullest potential.
