Spring is traditionally seen as the time to sell your home, with lots of properties being spruced up and put on the market just as the days start to get a little longer. If you’re thinking of selling up this spring, then you’ll no doubt be getting ready to set the scene in your home and make it as appealing to potential buyers as possible. Chingford homeowners, did you know that a loft conversion can help?
Extra Space in Your House
Creating extra space within your home will always help with a Chingford house sale. When it comes to house buying, bigger will always be better. By giving your buyers an extra bedroom, or a home office in the loft, you’ll be offering more than similar houses in the area, which will instantly make your property more attractive.
Future Proof With a Loft Conversion
Many buyers are looking for their ‘forever home’, or at the very least to future proof their living arrangements for the foreseeable future. If you have a family home and have added a loft conversion, you’ll be able to demonstrate to growing families that they have plenty of space to grow upwards into the loft. If you can show that your property is somewhere that a family can live in for years to come, you’ll attract those people looking for a more permanent move.
And don’t just think about space when future proofing your home for sale; additional selling points of a loft conversion can also include added insulation or solar panels on the roof to help with energy costs.
Aesthetically Pleasing Loft Conversions
Of course, if you are thinking about selling your home, you’ll no doubt be knee deep in giving the walls a lick of paint and deep cleaning the carpet. Having a newly converted loft will instantly give your property a modern extension to your home, which will appeal to those buyers that like everything to be shiny and new.
Remember to include lots of glass and windows, especially as the spring sunshine (fingers crossed!) will help to flood your loft with natural light, which is always a selling point. Similarly, make sure your plans for your loft conversion include lots of storage so you can store clutter out of view, and demonstrate to potential buyers that they won’t miss the storage aspect of not having a traditional loft.
If your loft conversion has been in situ for a while, then remember to give it a good spring clean ready for viewings! Think about including vases of spring blooms in several rooms in the house, including the loft conversion, and you may also want to refresh the likes of soft furnishings with some soft, spring-like colours, just to add some vibrancy and interest into an established space.
And remember, if you are looking to sell your home this spring, loft conversions for Chingford houses have proven to add property value! Get in touch with Bespoke Lofts today to see how we could help you to sell your property this spring with a loft conversion.
