Mid Level – front room as well as kitchen
Lower Level – office; 3/4 bath; as well as family room with fireplace.
We not long ago had a brand new roof tiles as well as siding put upon as well as devise upon landscaping a front for “curb-appeal” in a spring. In a meanwhile, you were anticipating to get a little ideas upon how to debonair up a residence DIY style.
Initial thoughts are:
1) Replacing vinyl flooring in all bathrooms with ceramic tile.
2) Refinishing kitchen cabinetry (their all wood)
3) Putting in laminate timber flooring in kitchen.
4) Replacing appliances (they’re all substantially 10 years old) if there’s income left.
Any recommendation or alternative suggestions.

Don’t worry about resale value. Fix it up to enjoy. Unless you’re planning on moving shortly. Then you may want to just paint and clean everything to make it presentable. And of course price it accordingly. Spending thousands of dollars may or may not increase value depending on the market conditions, etc.

Update your lighting. Add crown or new baseboard moldings. If you have outdated paneling or brick, spruce it up by painting it a neutral color to blend in with your decor. Remove wallpaper and paint out in a neutral color if you are looking to sell.
