With SPACE’s next In Room Auctions taking place on the 1st of September, it is expected many will be looking for a fresh interior suitable for a spring selling season!

If you’re a seller, a buyer or home lover consider giving your house the summer glow it deserves with these low cost alternatives:

Paint

Painting is the easiest, cheapest and quickest way to give your home a clean and inviting look. As the summer sun continues to heat up dirty walls which would generally go unnoticed become eyesore finger paintings in any modern day home.  While many opt for dark, bold colours for easy maintenance it can tend to limit your market potential… Best to go with light fresh colours.

Fabrics

Instead consider stunning bold fabrics which can be made into cushions, throws, divider screens and wall hangings to give life to a dull colour scheme.

Lighting

Subtle and indirect lighting can create a whole new atmosphere to an interior scheme and it doesn’t just have to be for evenings. An interesting lamp can also double as a feature as well as lighting.

Furniture

If you aren’t inclined to move your artwork, look at how you can reposition your room layout.

At the end of the day the bathroom and kitchen, need the most careful planning. If the major appliances and structure is in good condition maybe all the area needs is a basic ‘freshen up’, such as re-tiling and new taps and accessories.
