Real Estate Features

Before, everybody wanted bath tubs in every bathroom, but now things are changing and now homebuyers are wanting something else. Check out these new features that homebuyers are looking for when they are looking for a house to buy. Heated Bathroom Floors Anybody who has stepped on cold bathroom floors first thing in the morning can appreciate this feature. And now, you can have this without having to embed water filled tubes in concrete. You can now buy simple mesh-and-wire mats that install fast and easy under ceramic tiles that cost less than $10 a square foot and come with a variety of thermostats. Butcher Block Countertops Wood is the original solid surface, and used as an island or as a bar it holds a nostalgic feel for older people and a fresh natural look for younger customers. Traditionally, it comes in maple, but it is also available in cherry and birch. An 8 foot long top measuring 1.5 inches thick and 25 inched wide can be had for as low as $190.


Open Concept Homes People are going loco over spacious flowing floor plans and high ceilings that older houses don't have. Insulation Insulation is not the sexiest thing that you can put in a house, but it will be when it’s scorching hot outside or freezing cold in the winter. You would be thankful that you did when these times hit. Folding Patio Doors When these doors fold, they look like any other door, but they fold up like an accordion to provide access to outside. The full wall installations are expensive, but cost can be reduced with a two panel system.

Glass tiles Glass certainly is beautiful but it can also be price. If it is used sparingly as a kitchen or bath backsplash, it reflects light, shimmers with color, and is virtually maintenance free. If you look carefully, you can buy it for as little as $7 per square foot. Dual Flush toilet Although a toilet is probably not the most sophisticated part of your house, that doesn’t mean it can’t be improved upon for some pleasant times. A dual flush toilet costs about $100 more than a standard toilet, but it can save a family of four up to 6,000 gallons of water each year. This alone should be reason enough to buy one. If you’re looking for a nice home for sale that has plenty of nice features for you to drool over, then be sure to contact The Matheson Team today! You’ll be glad you did.
