Starter Home Upgrades & Tips to Consider

A “starter home” is what many people refer to as their first property and which they have plans of moving on from in a few years. However, for some, their dream home isn’t a bigger place, not to mention that moving itself presents more than a handful of challenges. This makes working with a home renovation expert to upgrade that starter home to meet a growing family’s needs and preferences a very attractive option.

Design Your Kitchen & Bathroom Carefully

If you’re planning a major revamp of your home interior, we suggest taking more time in designing your new bathroom and kitchen remodel. These areas are the busiest places in your home. To add more convenience and comfort to enhance your home living experience, consider how you use your kitchen and bathroom and how you can improve on them. It also helps to work with an experienced contractor who listens and understands what you need and want for your remodel!

Consider More Efficient Lighting

If you haven’t changed your starter home’s current lighting, take this as an opportunity to upgrade to better and more efficient fixtures. When choosing your new lighting, go for a style that follows the design language of your interior remodel to enhance its visual appeal. You can also consider installing low-voltage lighting along the walkways, driveway and patio. This creates a nice ambiance during the evenings and helps set the tone when you’re hosting family parties or other gatherings.

Add a Deck to Increase Living Space

A newly installed deck provides a great place to relax with your family or entertain when you have guests. Decks are typically made of wood of many different species, so you won’t have a hard time finding the right wood that compliments your home’s architecture.
