House Builders and Building Services in Retford | How to Make a New Build Feel Like Home

As we already discussed, one of the main advantages of having our house builders design and construct a new build specifically for you is the blank canvas upon which you get to leave your mark. But how can you make the space feel like home sooner rather than later? How long do you want to spend living in a property that has bare walls and no personality?

Our team at JMH Build Ltd has come up with a few quick and easy tips that will have your new home feeling like you’ve always been there in no time. We are also highly regarded throughout Retford and the surrounding areas for our house extensions, garage conversions, rubber roofs and extensive building services.

Art and Decoration

Invest in large canvases that make bold statements and position them where they can be seen as soon as you enter a room. Add photo frames throughout the property so you can see friends and family from multiple angles.

Bathroom Bliss

It’s important to make this room more appealing by adding warmth to the coldness of the stark fixtures and fittings. Patterned tiles with complementary furnishings and towels will help make you feel more relaxed in your new Retford home.

Colour Focus

New builds are usually completed using neutral shades unless you’ve agreed on painting and decorating services with your builder. Try to avoid keeping the bare shades and instead bring colour into every room to create a warmer atmosphere.

Furnishings

Go to town here! Purchase good quality curtains that will last and fit them in the living room and bedrooms. These are the areas of the property in which you’ll want to feel most at home. Accentuate with matching cushions and throws.

Light Fittings

Floor and table lamps add a more cosy feel to every room so consider purchasing a range of these and avoid using overhead fittings where possible. For kitchens and bathrooms, use task lighting for convenience.

Storage

Don’t forget to include as much storage facilities as you can at the design and planning stage. Our house builders at JMH Build can suggest a range of creative solutions that will provide you with all the comfort your new home needs.
