Solar-Powered Pathway Lights- $100

Something that is often overlooked when considering sprucing up your home amenities, is outdoor lighting. Especially during these winter months, creating a well-lit path to the front door not only ensures a safer space for you and your guests to walk but also adds to your home’s curb appeal. Luckily, outdoor solar-powered lights come in many different styles to match any aesthetic you may have.

Kitchen Cabinet Lighting- $300

Installing lighting underneath your kitchen cabinets can be an inexpensive way to add a luxury touch to your home. These lights can come with motion sensors, dimmable lights, remotes, and even plugs to recharge for a battery-free experience.

Surround Sound System- $1,000

If you’re a game day lover or a movie fanatic without the need for a home theater, a surround sound system may be for you. At an average of $1,000 per room, installing quality speakers can make the world of a difference when it comes to your sound experience.

Central Vacuum System- $2,000

Not all central vacuum systems are clunky and out of style. These days there are sleek designs that add vacuum vents to your baseboards for easy cleaning. Just get your broom out and sweep any dust and crumbs into the vent for the quickest vacuuming you’ve ever done!

Heated Flooring- $4,000

Becoming a must-have for many, heated flooring can be the make or break for your morning routine. Choose your rooms carefully, as $4,000 is the average rate for 1-2 rooms depending on the square footage.

Smart Home - $15,000

Many homes already feature gadgets like a front door camera and smart devices. Why stop there? Fully connect your home with smart amenities such as automatic lights, doors, security systems, and air conditioning, just to name a few. According to homeadvisor.com, “To fully automate an average four-bedroom, threebathroom home, you might spend up to $15,000, while luxury, fully connected homes run around $10,000 to $150,000”.

Home Theater- $17,500

Every kid dreams of having their very own in-home movie theater. But let’s be honest, we adults dream of it too. Costs can vary depending on fixtures and low-end vs. high-end parts, like a theater screen, projector, seating, and electrical work. Altogether, a home theater requires a lot of costly items but can give a lifetime of memories.

Saltwater Pool - $36,000

Sure, your neighborhood might already be full of chlorine pools. Who doesn’t like a dip in the pool during the summer? Go the extra mile and get a saltwater pool! While they may be the most expensive item on our list, saltwater pools require less chlorine, and most importantly, they provide health benefits too.
