Let’s face it—buying a home is a massive investment. As a homeowner, it’s important that the money you put into your house will add both enjoyment and value in the long term. Whether you just moved into your dream home that needs a few updates or you are looking to sell in the next few years, remodeling with your ROI in mind is key. But which projects are right for you and your family? Here’s a list of some of our favorite home improvement projects and additions that will take your home to the next level and recoup your investment when it’s time to move on.
Do you dream of having your morning coffee with unobstructed views of your backyard every day of the year? From a four-season room to a screen porch, sunrooms offer a fun way to blend indoor and outdoor living. Sunrooms can offer relief from pesky bugs in the hot summer months and allow you to soak up much-needed vitamin D during long, cold winters. Considering how your family will get the most out of the space can help determine the type of sunroom that is right for you. Although a sunroom may seem like a blast from the past, at Premier Construction, we specialize in stick-framed, four-season rooms. We prioritize comfort and luxury by making sure the sunroom seamlessly flows into the design of your home.
Long gone are the days where a garage is simply a place to store your junk. Utilizing your garage as a space for an in-home gym, a studio for hobbies or projects, or added living space can increase the value of your home with a few minor improvements. Adding a garage to your existing home can be less expensive than a fully detached garage. By using the structures already in place like the electricity and plumbing, you’ll cut down on costs. If you have the space, adding a fully-furnished detached garage or shed will add tons of square footage to your property. Consider investing in more liveable space in your garage, like an attic with trusses. Use it for your growing family or consider renting it for an even higher ROI.
Like adding living space to your garage, finishing your basement is an easy way to use what you already have. An unfinished basement is wasted potential and wasted space. In the United States, on average, finishing a basement will give you a return of 70 to 75% of your investment. Finishing your basement adds comfort to your home and can save you money in the long-run if it’s properly insulated. An upgraded basement is an entertainer’s dream—imagine a full bar to host all your friends or a home theater to watch the big game or latest movie. Consider adding a spare bedroom and ensuite for guests or a fully outfitted gym. The possibilities are endless!
From baking cookies to helping your kids finish their homework while making dinner—kitchens are a natural gathering space for your family. Even a minor upgrade to your kitchen can help recoup the cost and add value to your home. Adding new cabinets, updating your old countertops to granite or stone, or installing higher end light features and appliances can significantly upgrade your space. Opting for energy-efficient appliances or adding smart technology are also ways to attract potential buyers. Full kitchen remodels can be more expensive, but can have a huge payout. Reconfiguring the layout for functionality or creating an open concept space can change the entire feel of your home.
It’s easy to outgrow a space, especially if it was your starter home. New kids or more time stuck inside may have made you realize it’s time to add some square footage. Instead of going through the process of finding a whole new home, why not add on to your existing space? Custom home additions are a great way to incorporate a combination of the projects mentioned above. Add a two-story addition with a four-season room below and an additional bedroom above. Don’t have space for a finished basement? Add an entertainment room onto your house. It can be hard to make an addition feel like it wasn’t hobbled together. Working with an experienced contractor is key to ensuring your new addition fits seamlessly into your existing home.
