Beautiful front elevation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"Front](\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Desirable-House-Features-E-06-04-1024x640.jpg\")
A stunning front elevation can lure an investor<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Most homeowners take extra care when designing the front elevation of the house. Front elevation basically means the front view of the house. Focus on how your house displays itself from afar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Having an impressive driveway, front garden, unique name plate, big glass windows, a slanting slope \u2013 all of these add up to a stunning front elevation \u2013 which then make it a desirable home feature that you want to make more money from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Property with a garden<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Does your house boast a green space? If yes, then you must highlight it when showing your house to a homebuyer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The benefits of having your own garden can\u2019t be stressed enough. People who love nature can\u2019t imagine staying in a house with no access to greenery. Even if you don\u2019t have enough space for an elaborate garden, as a homeowner, you can always consider setting up your front or backyard as green spaces. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This gives a pleasant look and feel to the house, while enhancing your property\u2019s value. Don\u2019t have a backyard or front yard? Utilise the balcony or terrace in your house by keeping some seasonal flower pots in them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stunning views from the master bedroom<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Homebuyers would pay a fortune on a house with stunning views. Who wouldn\u2019t want to buy a house that overlooks the colossal sea in front? Or a house whose master bedroom has a full front view of the garden in front. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A drawing room with a floor to ceiling glass door, where you can enjoy the natural views of the garden while seated on the sofa set is sure to win the hearts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Terrace<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
For people who choose to buy a house instead of an apartment<\/a>, have many reasons. First and foremost: They can have a garden, terrace and a driveway of their own. A house with a terrace instantly upgrades its value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Make sure this desirable home feature is also safe and has a high boundary wall so that families with kids can also consider buying the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Servant quarter<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
People prefer paying extra money for a house that has an independent servant quarter. Those who like to provide accommodation to their domestic servants would particularly be interested in a house that offers such a facility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They wouldn\u2019t mind paying more money for a well-designed house with a servant quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Imported bathroom and kitchen fittings<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"Imported](\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Desirable-House-Features-A-06-04-1024x640.jpg\")
Modern bathroom with imported fittings<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n One of the most desirable home features that buyers are interested in are kitchen accessories and bathroom fittings. The plumbing system, types of faucets, shower head, commode, presence of a bathtub and an elaborate vanity set \u2013 all play a key role in determining the value of the property<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Imported sanitary fittings are of superior quality and require less maintenance. Therefore, homebuyers particularly check for the bathroom fittings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Flooring of the house<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Before putting your house up for sale, ask yourself these questions: is the flooring easy to maintain? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Check out the pros and cons of different flooring options<\/a> and choose the one that fits both your budget and add up to the house\u2019s resale value. Homebuyers pay extra money if there is wooden, laminate or vinyl flooring because of their many plus points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The quality of tiles in the bathroom and kitchen also play a pivotal role in making up the buyer\u2019s mind. Small tiled kitchen with bad finishing touches gives a less appealing look to the house. A lot relies on the finishing of the house. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Movable kitchen drawers having in-built sections for spoons, pots and pans enhances the overall value of the house. People find it convenient to use kitchens which have greater value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Furnished house<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Identify the needs and requirements of potential buyers and design your house accordingly to get maximum profits from your property. Those who would like to buy a full furnished house would want all kitchen appliances, lighting fixtures, chandeliers, furniture in place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They wouldn\u2019t mind if the price of the property is a bit on the higher side. For them, the fact that the house is furnished and they don\u2019t have to go through the hassle of making the house fit according to their needs is a greater convenience for which they are willing to pay more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enhanced safety system<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"Safety](\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Desirable-House-Features-B-06-04-1024x640.jpg\")
People want to invest in a house with enhanced safety features and systems<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Another major contributing factor that helps decide a house\u2019s value is the quality of doors, windows and the safety aspect of the house. If there are safety grills installed and the house has a smart security system, its value would increase. People want to feel safe at home. They would like to invest in a house that offers a safe environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Location<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"location](\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Desirable-House-Features-D-06-04-1024x640.jpg\")
The location of the house can determine its value<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n There is no denying the fact that the location of the house<\/a> is of paramount importance when striking the deal. Even if your house is small but is in a prime locality, the property price would still be higher than a bigger house on an average location. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Location matters the most. The proximity to entertainment venues, schools, family parks, supermarkets, hospitals and grocery shops help determine the buying value of a house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Heating and air conditioning systems<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Having electric heaters placed in every bathroom would surely increase the property\u2019s price. An air conditioner in master bedrooms, especially in cities where summers become unbearable can surely increase the value of the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kitchen island<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"kitchen](\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.zameen.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Desirable-House-Features-C-06-04-1024x640.jpg\")
A house with a modern open kitchen is a top choice for homebuyers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n A stuffy kitchen decreases the house\u2019s appeal. A kitchen built along contemporary lines boosts the value of the house. An open kitchen with large windows from where you can enjoy a view of the garden while washing dishes can attract an investor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Make sure to take a good look at the kitchen cabinets, drawers and their hardware before putting your house for sale. You wouldn\u2019t want to go for a lesser price for your house just because your kitchen fittings are outdated or you didn\u2019t change the handles of the drawers in time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
