1. Arizona Home Kitchen Additions And Remodeling
The kitchen is widely regarded as the center of any home, and this is a fact. It’s where delectable holiday meals are prepared, but it’s also where memories are created, especially when friends and family are there.
Many Arizona homeowners think about adding a kitchen primarily to increase the space’s usability or energy efficiency.
It’s also among the better upgrades that can deliver a strong return on investment. However, you should take your time designing any kitchen additions or remodeling tasks. In addition to making sure everything runs smoothly, you should ensure that the remodeling blends in with the rest of your home’s design elements.
Consider the following ideas:
Check that your kitchen additions will fit: When designing an extension, a large kitchen may appear to be just what you are looking for. Is this, however, the best option?
Not at all. Many design professionals strongly advise comparing the overall dimensions of the kitchen to the size of other important rooms in the home.
Always include energy-efficient appliances: What are some of the first things you check if you recently bought a home? The majority of home buyers will inspect the kitchen, and specifically the condition of the major appliances.
The refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, and stove should all be high-end, energy-efficient purchases if you plan to spend money on kitchen remodeling. This will benefit you when you decide to put your house up for sale, in addition to saving you money while you still live in it.
2. Arizona Home Bathroom Addition
For several reasons, bathroom extensions are quite popular, and they are usually a wise investment. In Arizona, older homes frequently feature a small number of bathrooms.
A third bathroom or turning a half bath into a full bathroom can dramatically raise the value of a home with fewer than two and a half bathrooms.
There are numerous creative ways to make room for a new bathroom.
Think of closets: A bathroom extension does not have to be a full bath. In truth, all you need is roughly 19 square feet for a half bath and 35 square feet for a full bath (if you want to include a bathtub). A closet will suffice as a functional half bath.
Laundry Room: You might be able to switch to a setup with space-saving stackable washer and dryer machines based on the size of your laundry room. The room can then be used again to add a partial bathroom.
Under Staircase: If you live in a two-story home and don’t use the space under your stairs, this can be a fantastic choice for adding a half bath because a sink and toilet can usually fit in this space.
A Quick Tip: Before you begin, make sure to double-check that you’ll have enough headroom.
3. Arizona Home Room Additions
The best home improvements you can make are room extensions, which are quite inexpensive. The more rooms a home has, whether it be for a bedroom, den, or leisure area, the more valuable it is. The key is to strategically plan the room expansion to close a hole in your house.
The following is some useful advice:
The value of versatility: A designated room, such as an entertainment area, may not necessarily be well received by prospective purchasers. Think about including a flexible room so the buyer can arrange it in whatever way they like or need.
Don’t forget about Internet connections: Although Wi-Fi technology has advanced significantly in recent years, nothing beats an exclusive Ethernet cable port for reliability. Consider including one in every room addition.
4. Arizona Home Energy-Efficient Windows
This is sometimes ignored when it comes to home renovation tasks, but when you are living in the Valley of the Sun, having windows that stop the heat from coming in and retain the cold air inside is a major benefit.
Installing energy-efficient windows might also help you save money on your taxes. Arizona provides incentives, such as a 10% tax credit for green energy if it is Energy Star® accredited.
5. Arizona Home Add A Second Story To Your Home
The addition of livable space is, as previously noted, one of the finest ways to raise the resale value of your property. A second-story addition by a qualified builder is a far more dramatic improvement than adding a bathroom or extra rooms to the main floor.
In addition to providing the homeowner with extra usable living space as well as useful square footage, a second story also offers the property a new exterior appearance.
Phoenix’s top home improvement professionals will collaborate with you to create the second-story addition to make sure it complements the design features of your current property and conforms with HOA rules.
6. A Casita or Guest House For Guests Or Elderly Parents
A very common technique to increase your home’s equity quickly is to add a casita or guest house.
You can have the freedom to give guests a nice living area with lots of privacy when you make a deliberate choice to have a contractor create and construct a guest home.
A casita can be made to match your main house or tailored to stand alone, giving it a distinctive appearance and feel.
Working with a skilled general contractor in Arizona is essential to the success of any home addition project.
7. A Pool And An Outdoor Kitchen/Entertainment Area
The seventh and last item on our list of ways to increase the value of your house is more about enhancing “your life” while residing in any Arizona home during the summertime.
This upgrade is less about increasing the monetary value of your property and more about your lifestyle and sense of harmony in your life.
You have the freedom to cool yourself whenever you want by having a skilled builder install that specially-built swimming pool.
Additionally, adding outdoor patio furniture, a kitchen, a gathering room, a fire pit, and water features to your outdoor living space gives you more space to relax and spend time with those you love.
