5 Tips to Maximize the Space in Your Point Breeze Homes for

Sale

No matter what size of home you have - from a one-bedroom house to a five-bedroom luxury home - having enough space is always a challenge. Everyone can benefit from maximizing all possible spaces in their Point Breeze homes for sale in Pittsburgh. Even if you’re not selling your home now, think of the process as an investment, a way to up the value of your home without burning a hole in your pocket.

To help, here are 5 really

simple tips you can try:

1. Use floor-to-ceiling shelves.The visual appeal of large bookcases filled with different colored books is simply an added benefit to having floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. Using these helps you to maximize the underutilized vertical space. Simply stacking boxes upon boxes of your stuff makes the home look cramped and messy. Using tall shelves, on the other hand, gives you added storage space which is easier to organize and decorate, as well.

2. Make every piece of furniture count.If you have a small space in your newly acquired house for rent in Point Breeze Pittsburgh, it’s important to make sure that every item inside your home has a specific purpose and not merely added decoration. For example, instead of a full sofa set, why not invest on a quality couch and pair it with storage benches or foot stools with hollow spaces inside for storage? Always remember that when it comes to decorating a small space, having furniture that offer dual purposes will help you to make the space look even bigger and more organized.

3. Organize your kitchen.The heart of every home, your kitchen, can easily get messy due to the fact that it’s one of the busiest rooms in the whole house. Apart from a room where you can store, prep, and cook food, the kitchen is also a space to entertain guests. As such, it must be both functional and welcoming.

To maximize the space, think vertically and edit the items in your pantry and countertop. Free up spaces by removing expired goods, giving away unnecessary kitchen supplies, and organizing your food storage containers. One good rule of thumb is if you haven’t used the kitchen item in a year, it’s best to throw it out.

4. Trick the eyes.Both design experts and luxury REALTORS® in Point Breeze Pittsburgh PA agree that a cost-efficient way to open up a small space is by creating an illusion of added space. To do this, you can strategically place mirrors on the walls of the small spaces in your home. You can also repaint a room in a lighter color and using horizontal lines with your curtains and wallpaper.

5. DE-CLUTTER.Sometimes, homes really do have a lot of space but homeowners tend to have a lot of mess so the place becomes too cluttered and bit by bit, not enough space is left for any of the more important things in your home. Remember, you don’t have to put every knick knack you’ve picked up from your few trips abroad on display. Don’t fill every inch of space in your home with items that are simply there for display. Plan your overall look for a room, decide on whether a piece of furniture or artwork is important in the space, and edit accordingly.
