Flooring: Keep It Warm Attic floors are often made of unfinished wood, which might not be the most comfortable option. Consider adding carpeting or area rugs to warm up the space and make it more inviting. If you prefer the look of wood, consider installing hardwood or laminate flooring with area rugs for added comfort. Lighting: Brighten It Up Attics can be dark, especially if they don’t have windows. Adding skylights is a great way to bring in natural light and make the space feel brighter and more open. If skylights aren’t an option, ensure there’s plenty of artificial lighting. Recessed lighting, wall sconces, or even string lights can add a warm and cozy atmosphere to the attic. Staging Tips for Bedrooms and Attics Here are a few staging tips to help you make the most of your bedroom and attic spaces: • Declutter: Remove any personal items, excess furniture, or anything that doesn’t belong. The goal is to create a space where buyers can imagine themselves living. • Neutralize: Stick to neutral colours and decor to appeal to the widest range of buyers. • Focus on Comfort: Make sure the bedroom feels cosy and inviting. Soft linens, fluffy pillows, and a warm throw can go a long way in creating a welcoming atmosphere. • Showcase Potential: If you’re selling an attic space, stage it in a way that highlights its potential. Whether it’s set up as a guest room, office, or playroom, make sure buyers can see how they might use the space. • Lighting: Ensure that both the bedroom and attic are well-lit. Natural light is best, but make sure there’s plenty of artificial lighting to keep the space bright and inviting. 53
