Will shutters increase my property value?

Whether you are looking to sell your property, or to simply increase its value, there is absolutely no doubt that an investment in luxurious shutters is worth every penny.

Windows dressed with expertly fitted shutters, will greatly improve the appearance of your home, both inside and out, creating serious kerb appeal. Increasing the desirability of a property’s exterior, and making it uniquely stand out from the crowd will give it the wow factor, which is definitely what you want when it comes to attracting prospective buyers.

Any estate agent will use window shutters as a selling point when assessing the value of a property. Windows dressed in elegant and robust, made to measure shutters are particularly appealing. As window shutters are a property fixture, there is no need for buyers to worry about window dressing solutions. New owners can immediately reap the benefits that come with built in window coverings which include elegance and style, light control, privacy, security, and insulation.

It is important to bear in mind that buyers are savvy and hawk-eyed, they will immediately notice if window shutters have been cheaply installed. When installing shutters, make sure that they are professionally fitted with high quality materials which will look good and last for a very long time. There are beautiful ranges of high-quality shutters to choose from like Java, Samoa, Fiji, Cuba, Bermuda, and Antigua. Whatever shutter range you decide on, choosing a neutral colour or natural finish will ensure that the window dressing remains timeless, which can further aid the sale of a property.

Installing shutters is a smart and valuable investment which will instantly update your property and future proof it for sale further down the line.
