One of the biggest selling points in a property is the kitchen. An old, outdated kitchen can be an eyesore and completely turn buyers away from a home. On the flip side, a modern, updated kitchen can bring in buyers that never would have even looked twice at the home before. If you plan on selling your house, here are a few updates that can help take your kitchen from old to bold.
1. Dark cabinetry - If your cabinets blend in with your walls or backsplash, you may need an update. Dark wood, stained, or even black cabinets are sleek, modern, and super simple to create. If you have natural wood cabinets, you could stain them dark or give them a fresh coat of paint. Dark cabinets feel so luxurious, and updating them is the most effective way to modernize your kitchen.
2. Metal cabinet/drawer pulls - The right hardware can make all the difference in your kitchen, and can completely transform the look and feel of any room. Just like the way ornate, scrolled hardware gives a vintage or antique look, sleek, angular hardware gives off a modern vibe. The easiest and most cost-effective way to get the modern vibe is by changing your cabinet/drawer pulls. Think long, thin, and angular to get the best effect.
3. Seating - The great thing about dining furniture is that pieces can be mixed and matched. If you have an antique dining room or breakfast table, a grouping of modern chairs placed around it can give off a cool, eclectic vibe. Look for angular chairs made out of unlikely materials, or even chairs with no straight lines, like the chairs below.
4. Accessories - Think modern, yet minimalist. Notice the black vases in the picture below - they are all the same size, same height, and in a contrasting color. When choosing accessories, think minimalist yet bold. One great option is to incorporate fresh fruit into your decor, using a modern bowl made out of unusual materials.
