Maximize Your Home’s Value With These 5 Garden Upgrades

Are you considering selling your home during the summer? Curb appeal can make a massive difference. Investing in good landscaping and garden design enhances the curb appeal of your home, increasing its value and serving as a long-term investment.

 

1. Professional Landscaping

To enhance your property, hire a landscape architect whose work you admire, interview multiple architects, consider maintenance requirements, and hire them in winter for a spring-ready design.

A landscape architect can recommend contractors for large projects and supervise plantings, ensuring correct installation while selecting a cohesive design that enhances your home's style with a mix of trees, native plants, and flowers.

2. Trees

Well-placed trees provide multiple benefits, such as cooling the house, reducing energy bills, preventing storm-water runoff, and enhancing curb appeal.

3. Flowers

Colourful annuals and perennials in flowerbeds accentuate homes, boost spirits, and provide a positive impression to homeowners and potential buyers, while potted flowering plants add brightness to entranceways and offer portability for those moving.

4. Native Plants

Selecting native plants for your garden creates an aesthetically pleasing and low-maintenance design while benefiting local wildlife and the environment.

Investing in a reputable nursery for trees and shrubbery guarantees longevity compared to local garden centers.

5. Maximize Aesthetic Value

A well-designed garden and landscaping can minimize home flaws, provide privacy with attractive hedges, and reduce noise levels if located on a busy road, with guidance from a landscape designer.
