Even if you love your home, there is usually something you would like to add to it that will make you love it even more. Perhaps you have a growing family and an additional bedroom or larger living space would be nice. Maybe you have a dog or two and would like a big yard for them to run around. What would you add to your home to make it even better? According to a recent study done by realtor.com, here’s what homeowners want most in 2020.
More Space
As we stated at the beginning of this blog, more space is a common wish list item. Your house may have been the perfect size when you moved in, but families tend to grow. Maybe you have a baby on the way, or you just got a new puppy. With each new member of your home, your space can feel like it’s starting to shrink. That is why more space is one of the most sought-after wish list items for homeowners in 2020.
Additional Bathroom
Once again, our space can get quite crowded when our families grow. It can be difficult when everyone in your household needs to get ready for work or school and you all have to share bathrooms. An additional bathroom can save a little stress when it’s time to get ready for the day.
Updated Kitchen
A lot of quality time spent together as a family happens in the kitchen. We cook dinner with our spouses or kids there. We bake cookies and other treats there too. So, whether you have old, out of date or broken appliances, it’s natural to want to do a little upgrade.
Natural Lighting
It’s crazy how something as simple as natural lighting can change the whole look and feel of a home. Not only does it brighten up your home, natural lighting can also brighten your mood! Along with the added visual appeal and health benefits, natural light can greatly reduce your electric bill.
Home Gym
Health and fitness are two of the most important aspects of peoples’ lives. Working out not only improves your mood and productivity, but it will also help you live a longer, healthier life! Now imagine being able to get your workouts in at home. It will be hard to come up with an excuse to skip a workout when your gym is under your own roof!
Larger Yard/Patio
Who doesn’t enjoy fresh air? Having a larger yard and patio will make it hard to not want to be outside to enjoy the sunshine. From backyard cookouts to playing family games, having that additional yard space has many benefits!
