Does an ensuite add value to your home?
The Benefits of adding en suites to your home
As an interior designer with experience designing properties for busy families, I understand the importance of having enough time in the bathroom and hot water. Adding en suites can be daunting, but when done correctly, it can pay off in the long run.
According to Resi.com, adding a bathroom can increase your home's value by 4-5%. Calculations reveal that an ensuite can add a net gain of anywhere between £10,000 to £15,000, even after accounting for renovation costs. For family-oriented properties, a 4 double bedroom house with 3 en suites and a bathroom is ideal. However a luxury and at a cost, make sure you get your estate agent out first to see how value can be added. It's important to be cautious as the cost can range from £7,000 to £15,000 when factoring in the bathroom suite, lighting, etc and hiring electricians, joiners, and plumbers. Make sure you are doing it for the right reasons, either practicality or profit.
If your neighbors don't have luxurious bathrooms, then your home could fetch a premium. A well-maintained property with immaculate en suites and bathrooms will sell better than one without them.
Cost: The cost of installing a new bathroom can vary, but it may set you back around £7,000.
Value Added: If done correctly, adding an en suite can increase your home's value by 2-3%.
