The quirky features in your home that will attract the perfect buyer: Cinema

Our homes are our castles, and we tailor them to our precise and personal needs. Of course, every property has bathrooms, bedrooms and kitchens, but as everyone is different, so are our homes. Interests, hobbies and quirky features make a property unique, and this is what can make a property interesting.

Perhaps one of the most popular extra features is a cinema room. TV and film are a part of daily life, whether you like watching the newest blockbuster movies on the big screen or your children want to watch YouTube videos.

And as we predominantly stream movies now, there is no clunky DVD and no long wait for the film to become available. In fact, many fabulous new movies are straight to TV/stream now rather than the traditional release route through the cinemas.

A cinema room can add lots of value to a home. Imagine spending a weekend evening as a family, gathered together to watch the newest released movie, complete with popcorn and treats. But, the best part is, the seats can be as comfortable as you like, and you can bring blankets and cushions and even wear your PJs. You can control the temperature, so it's not too hot or cold. 

Our hobbies, pastimes and interests can shape how we style and design our homes. Perhaps you love woodwork and have a joinery workshop fully equipped with everything you could ever need in your carpentry endeavours. Maybe you are a budding Masterchef, and your kitchen could rival Michelin-star restaurants. Perhaps a property has a swimming pool, sauna or gym so that you can recreate a spa day in the comfort of your home.

It is these differences that make a home stand out from the crowd. A house with a gym will appeal hugely to a fitness fanatic who would love nothing more than to pump iron in their own private space rather than an overcrowded commercial gym. A house with a hobby room will appeal greatly to a potential buyer that spends their spare time on crafty pursuits.

And if a home has that special something that is right up a buyer's street, they will pay a higher price for the property. They will see greater value in that special something that your home can offer, over and above other properties on the market at the time, and be willing to pay for it. 

As the saying goes, the 'riches are in the niches' - by niching down the potential audience for the sale of your home, you will appeal to that specific person. The alternative is that you try to market the property to appeal to everyone. Sadly the outcome of this strategy is that you don't end up with a perfect buyer but several average buyers. 

Living in a home with a cinema room may be perfect for you and your family, but it will also appeal to a great many potential buyers when the time comes that you might want to sell your home. And the marketing materials that will be prepared for your property when you decide to sell will be able to highlight this feature and showcase the lifestyle available to a buyer if they purchase your home. 

Of course, the point here is to find a buyer, and you may think that any buyer will do just fine if they buy the property. But, at By Design, we are not just looking for any old sale; we aim to find the buyer that will pay the highest price for a property, and that buyer will need to fall head over heels in love with a home so much so that they'll pay, almost, whatever is asked.

The features that make a unique home help shape the lifestyle of the occupants of that property. This lifestyle is what must be highlighted to appeal to the ideal buyer. This will set your home apart from the masses and help a buyer decide to buy your home over another one on the market. 

By Design agents use artificial intelligence and innovative technology to pinpoint the ideal buyer for every property. These unique features can help appeal to these perfect buyers and get your home sold.
