Tips for Maximizing Usable Floor Space in Your Residential Stouffville Real Estate Investment

With dwindling land space, houses seem to be getting smaller every day. Though most developers are now opting for storied homes, the floor space is still barely enough to fit everything families require and remain with enough free space. You might not be in a position to buy or rent the largest home in the Stouffville real estate market. Even so, here are some ways through which you can maximize the usable floor space of every room.

 

Use vertical floating storage

 

Most people will fill a huge chunk of their floor space with storage furniture like cupboards, and chests. This leaves you with a room that looks cramped. Invest in floating vertical storage. There are now shelves, wardrobes and cabinets that can be bolted onto your walls rather than placed on your floors. These leave you with a lot of free floor space without affecting your available storage space.

 

Scale your furniture according to a room’s size

 

Most people investing in Stouffville real estate complain about the sizes of the rooms. Scale your furniture according to the size of a room to avoid having one piece that overwhelms the room’s design and takes up all the floor space. For instance, if your living room is not so big, opt for an L-shaped seat rather than detached seats.

 

Ditch the bathtub

 

Though luxurious, a bathtub takes up valuable floor space. Ditch this for a standing shower separated from the rest of your bathroom with glass doors. The shower increases your available floor space, and the glass door creates an illusion of endless space.

 

The Stouffville real estate market does not show any signs of increasing floor spaces. Thankfully, with the approaches above, you can make do with even the smallest space. As such, though essential, do not dismiss a good house only because of its seemingly limited floor space.
