Adding a new bedroom

Whenever you want to get additional value from your home, creating a new bedroom can be taken into account. It is because the presence of an extra bedroom can boost home value up to 15 percent. There is an area in your house that is often left less effective. It is none other than a loft. Most people only use it to shove all unused things. However, you can add value to this area by transforming it into a bedroom.

The majority of lofts can be transformed into more useful space but discussing with an architect to do any checking before starting the process can be really helpful. Both cost-saving and expensive transformation can be done in the loft. If you want to take the cheapest one, you may try to change the roof light. As for the expensive option, you add a new structure on the slope to support a more spacious bedroom area.

Installing a new flooring

Another part of the house that can add its value is the floor. If you want to make a change in your house, you may consider installing new flooring. Among numerous floorings available in the market, solid wood flooring provides high quality that your home deserves to get. Although it cost a bit pricey at the beginning, this flooring can last for decades. It stands high traffics of feet so it is perfect to be installed in any rooms, particularly a kitchen.

Not only match with various interior designs, this flooring also can be a great complement for any property and furniture in your house. The versatility owned by this flooring even makes your furniture look more appealing. Another good quality that you can obtain is that it requires easy maintenance. Sweeping and mopping to remove any spills is enough for daily maintenance.  Even solid wood flooring provides a longer clean look compared with its counterparts.

Giving a garden makeover

Redesigning a garden to be more interesting and tidy is also effective to increase home value. There are various ideas that you can try to make your garden look more appealing. For instance, if you have a wide garden, you can consider adding a deck for a seating area. Another idea is adding structure in the garden by arranging plants and flowers based on their height or colors. This will give a well-designed feeling to anyone who sees it.

To wrap up, there are many ideas to give your house transformation to boost its value. Change other rooms into bedrooms, use solid wood flooring, and redesign the garden are just three examples of change that can be conducted for that purpose, especially if you plan to sell your house in a little while.
