Tips For Enhancing Your Bathroom To Attract Future Buyers

2/22/2022

The bathroom is an important room that should fulfill your needs when buying a new home. How many bathrooms there are, their space, and their condition will dictate whether or not the house is right for you.

Hence, here are some top tips to upgrade your bathroom so that future buyers will be satisfied with what your bathroom(s) have to offer.

The toilet system
The toilet system in your home is one of the most important plumbing features. Without the right system, your toilet could cause maintenance issues such as leaking and pipe damage. To prevent this, it will help to purchase a modern and easy-to-maintain toilet.

2-piece toilets will add more convenience to your bathroom and ensure that you can maintain its health and condition. An internal system can be a lot more difficult to fix, should something go wrong with it. Therefore, upgrading your toilet to a 2-piece system will ensure to make your bathroom longer-lasting, easier to clean, repair, and maintain.

More mirrors
More mirrors are a great way to enhance your bathroom as they will add the illusion of more space.

Mirrors reflect light and therefore, will enhance the amount of light that bounces around your bathroom.

You could add more mirrors, larger mirrors, or mirrored decorative objects. All of which, will help to enhance the airiness and light in your bathroom.

A towel rack
There is nothing more convenient than a towel rack in your bathroom. It makes towels easy to grab and helps to keep the floor and sides clear.

To add even more luxury to your bathroom, it can help to add a heated towel rack. These will keep your towels warm on colder days.

A large bath and/or shower
A spacious cleaning area will make the bathroom feel and look a lot more luxurious. Hence, always ensure to not overcrowd your bathroom with too much, which could hinder the space for your bath and/or shower.

If having both features means that both are small, then it could help to stick with one. Having one much larger feature will maximize the convenience and luxury feel of the bathroom.

Modern touches
Simple modern touches can transform the bathroom and make it a lot more appealing. These could include an electric shower, heated toilet seats, or automatic lights. These features can enhance the convenience of your bathroom, which will make it look and feel more expensive.

Modern touches do not always have to be expensive to look and feel expensive. You could simply add LED automatic lights, which are affordable yet help you obtain that convenience of lights switching on when you enter the bathroom.

Neutral tones
Making your bathroom as appealing to as many future buyers as possible will help to keep it neutral. The more minimal and neutral your space is, the easier future buyers can vision their own belongings and interior touches there.

Keep things white, grey, or beige, to ensure that the light still bounces around. It will help the bathroom feel clean, spacious, and modern.

A unique feature
A unique feature is a great way to make a bathroom attractive and fulfilling. A unique feature should add convenience to the bathroom so that it doesn’t use up unnecessary space.

Some ideas include:

  • A jacuzzi bath. This will give the bathroom a hotel feel and not take up extra space. Instead, the future buyer can enjoy a luxury jacuzzi bath whenever they want to.
  • Floating shelves. Not all bathrooms have enough space for floating shelves. But, if yours does then add them to increase storage space.
  • Automatic taps. Automatic taps are often something you see in hotel rooms or luxury bathrooms. Adding these to your own bathroom will make it feel a lot more expensive.
  • Rainfall shower. Again, another common feature in luxury hotel bathrooms is a rainfall shower. This will enhance the look of your bathroom and make it a lot more appealing.

Plenty of light
Enhancing the light in your bathroom will guarantee to make it more luxurious. This is possible by adding more mirrors or windows. Or, enlarging those that already exist.

Plenty of light in a bathroom will make it airier, which will make it feel clean and be the ideal space to get ready in.

Good air circulation
The better the air circulation is in your bathroom, the cleaner it will feel and the better it will smell. Damp bathrooms can smell strange and also be vulnerable to mold, which will deter the interest of future buyers.

Hence, ensure that your bathroom has good air circulation. This can be achieved by:

  • Adding plants. Some indoor plants will regulate air circulation and soak up excess moisture.
  • Humidifiers. Humidifiers are key for bathrooms that experience excess dampness and steam after hot baths and showers.
  • Air vents. Air vents will ensure that excess moisture in the air can escape the room.

Privacy
The more private the bathroom(s) in your home feels, the more appealing it will be. Nobody wants to feel that their privacy can be easily invaded in the comfort of their own home.

Therefore, ensure it is well-insulated, sound-proofed, and safe to lock.

Flooring and tiles
The flooring and tiles in your bathroom will say a lot about its maintenance and care.

Firstly, you should opt for neutral and light colors for your flooring and tiles. It will open up the space, allow light to bounce around, and make it look and feel a lot more spacious. Even if the bathroom is small, a lighter tile or flooring choice will make it appear bigger than it is.

Then, you should ensure to keep an eye on the grouting and condition of your flooring and tiles. Excess dirt and grime can build up and seeing as the floor/walls are the main features of your bathroom, it can hinder its entire look. Hence, your bathroom can look much more appealing if you keep the floor/tiles light, clean, and free from grime.
