Gold Coast homeowners are choosing to stay in their houses for longer and invest in home improvement and renovations to suit their lifestyle changes over time.
Resent research indicated that 32% of homeowners intend to live on their property for more than 20 years while a further 20% expect to stay between 10 and 20 years.
Spring has truly sprung – daylight savings has kicked in, the AFL Grand Final has been and gone, and the countdown to a long, hot summer is well and truly on.
It's important that you feel more comfortable in your own home than anywhere else — because it's yours. It should feel like you, and to feel like you, often it needs to look like you. Renovating is about more than just adding a room here or changing a colour there. It's about making your home the place where you feel most comfortable. The question is what actually adds to your life as well as your home?
Ceiling Insulation
This isn't the kind of renovation project you can see when it's finished, but you can feel it. In fact, one of the most key elements to home comfort is temperature control. Good insulation is a relatively small fix with a big improvement during Queensland’s hot summers.
Kitchen Renovation
Create your dream kitchen. The colours you want, the layout, the integration — the more you love your kitchen, the more time you'll spend in it. You'll start to cook more original dinners for your family and look forward to eating in rather than going out. If you can't afford to renovate the whole space, a kitchen backsplash new tapware and new cabinet doors and drawerfronts can make a big difference. Make your kitchen as comfortable as possible, because it’s where families tend to spend a fair amount of time.
Bathroom Renovation
Likewise, try to add as much luxury to your bathroom as you can. Your bathroom should be the place where you can relax and wash off the stress from the day. Besides your bedroom, your bathroom should possibly be the place in the home where you feel most comfortable. Invest in a luxury bathtub that encourages you to soak for a bit. Modern bathrooms are so much more than just a practical necessity.
