It’s important when building a custom home to take into account not only what you want and need, but also how much it could be worth in the future. Even if you have no immediate plans to sell, building with the goal of increasing resale values is a wise investment. Consider these key features in the construction of your custom home to increase its resale price:
Key Features For Your Custom Home
1. Kitchens that are well-designed
It’s crucial that the kitchen be well-designed, as it is one of the most used rooms in any home. The details that are most important to each person will differ, but in general, trends such as good lighting, enough storage, a functional flow, the right flooring, and other features never go out of style. A kitchen with these features will increase the value of your home.
2. Beautiful, comfortable, and functional bathrooms
Bathrooms can make a huge difference to your home’s experience and future value. Beautiful, functional, and comfortable bathrooms will achieve these goals.
Some bathroom trends are not suitable for your home. However, you can create a functional and spacious bathroom by choosing the right layout, the flooring, the features, and the upgrade of fixtures.
3. Closets with Plenty of Storage Space
It is crucial to find the perfect balance between livable and storage space. When it comes to designing a custom home, closets are not the first thing that springs to mind. Ample storage space, and closets that are large enough to hold all your belongings can help maximize your home’s value and its use. The ability to customize a walk-in wardrobe is one of its many benefits.
Closets are no exception for your new home construction. The right furniture will upgrade any space or room. Furniture and storage configurations of all kinds can give you the flexibility and organization you need. Walk-in closets are often designed with built-in dressers, which can be tailored to your needs and blended seamlessly into the room.
A good quality dresser is a small but useful investment that will help you maximize your home’s resale price. It’s important when choosing a dresser to take into consideration the materials and quality of workmanship, especially if you have built-in features that are meant to last.
4. Home Office or Flex Space
Many homeowners are finding that having a dedicated workspace is important, especially as remote working and home-based business become more common. Home offices have their pros and cons, but for those who are looking for a dedicated, quiet room to work, the pros outweigh any cons.
It is important to design a space for a home office that can be used as a functional and quiet workspace when building a custom home in Myrtle Beach. It is a good investment to invest in a built-in desk that can be tailored to your needs and maximizes the space available in your home office.
You can design a flex or bonus room to accommodate your needs if you don’t want to dedicate a room to your home office. In a bonus or flex room, you can include a desk or table to suit your needs. It won’t interfere with the use of the room for other purposes.
5. Relaxing Outdoor Living Spaces
Other features that should be considered in the construction of custom homes are relaxing outdoor living areas. There are many ways to transform your backyard into the outdoor space you want and need. Some tips to create amazing outdoor living spaces include determining the purpose of the space, and what you plan to do with it.
With so many choices, you should consider what you want from the space in the long run. Some people will find outdoor kitchens appealing, while others may not. This is also true for large structures like swimming pools. You can use this information to decide whether you want a patio or deck for your home or both.
6. Smart Home Technology: Useful for Your Home
Smart home technology is becoming more popular as technology and the Internet of Things continue to grow. Smart home devices can make life easier, add value to your house, and add convenience. Smart home technology can include the following:
- Smart Lighting
- Smart Entertainment (Wireless Tech, Charging Stations, etc.)
- Smart Thermostats and Air Purifiers
- Smart Home Appliances (Refrigerators, Dishwashers, etc.)
- Advanced Home Security (Smart Doorlocks, Video Doorbells and Advanced Sensors)
7. Energy-Efficient Features
Consider features that can improve your home’s energy efficiency when building a custom home. When you partner with a reputable, experienced builder to design and construct your home, it will help cover the basics, such as proper insulation, high-quality materials, etc. A custom home builder can provide you with this benefit.
You can also work with them to decide on other energy-efficient features, such as a smart thermostat, upgraded lighting, or window upgrades. You can use these tips to build an energy-efficient home for you.
8. Decorative Details
The decorative details are another feature to consider when building a custom home. They can enhance the design of your home and increase its resale price. It can range from choosing the right furniture to adding wrought iron or interesting trim. The right coffee table can make all the difference in the decor of the living room.
It is wise to invest in a good quality coffee table as it will serve as the centerpiece of your living room, and it will enhance the look and feel. However, it must be the right size and style for the area. The size and style of the coffee table should match the space. A table too small may look odd, while a table too large will overwhelm the room.
The style of the table should also complement the decor of the space. A minimalist home may benefit from a modern glass table, while a farmhouse-style house may prefer a rustic wood table. This applies to both movable furnishings that might not remain with the home once it is sold, and permanent features and elements.
9. Landscaping is Important
It is important to have curb appeal when you are selling your home. It can also affect how you feel while living in the home. A well-landscaped yard can make a big difference. You’ll still need to work with your custom home builder on the landscaping of your new home, even though you will be building it from scratch.
You should consider your landscaping even if there are no large features to be built during construction. One of the most common landscaping mistakes is not planning or thinking about it. Consider trees, plants, types and colors of grass, pathways, outdoor lighting, structures, etc. It may be important to consider the placement of your custom home based on what you like and your lot.
