Our team are contacted by dozens of homeowners and investors in Liverpool and Merseyside every month, looking to refurbish their properties. Whether the property is terraced, detached, a maisonette or an apartment, the majority of our clients are interested in updating the internal and external features to reflect changes in lifestyle, technology, and design preferences. For homeowners in Liverpool looking to refresh their living spaces, staying updated with the latest trends can help ensure that their investments are both stylish and functional. Here are some of the top trends for Liverpool Property Refurbishment that we’re seeing so far in 2024:
Open Plan Living Spaces
Open-plan designs continue to dominate, creating spacious, multifunctional areas that blend the kitchen, dining, and living rooms. Removing non-load-bearing walls can dramatically transform the look and feel of a home, creating light and bright open space that’s perfect for modern family living and eating. Creating spaces for friends and family to come together, inside and out, is still hugely popular.
Outdoor Living Spaces
Continuing on the theme of open plan living, we see lots of homeowners wanting to install bi-folding doors from their open plan living spaces, to create a seamless flow from indoors to outdoors so enhancing outdoor areas to create additional living space is a trend that continues to grow. Decks, patios, and gardens are being designed for year-round use (despite the Liverpool weather!), featuring outdoor pagoda’s, fire pits, and comfortable seating areas. These spaces are perfect for entertaining or simply relaxing.
Smart Home Integrations
We’re seeing more and more Liverpool based clients wanting to ensure their newly refurbished properties are “Smart”. From voice-controlled lighting and thermostats to advanced security systems, integrating smart technology into home renovations can significantly enhance convenience and energy efficiency. Popular choices include smart doorbells, automated lighting systems, and smart kitchen appliances. We’re even installing temperature controlled “wine-rooms” in some of our clients property’s.
Bold Kitchen Designs
A few years ago, we installed countless white and cream high-gloss kitchens, but we’re seeing more and more bold colour and material choices in 2024, certainly in the private homeowner market. Landlords and investors still keep kitchens and bathrooms simple but homeowners are taking more risks! Vibrant and bold colour choices, unique backsplashes, and statement islands. Dark cabinetry, mixed metal finishes, and open shelving are all very popular, allowing homeowners to express their personal style while maintaining functionality.
Luxurious Bathrooms
In the past, refurb budgets in bathrooms have been modest, with the majority of the spend being used for downstairs living areas but we have noticed over the last 6 to 12 months that customers are “splashing” the cash in bathrooms and en-suites. Free standing baths, smart showers, ambient lighting and TV’s are now more and more commonplace in the Liverpool refurbishment projects we carry out, particularly for homeowners.
Final thoughts
We work with customers with a range of different refurbishment objectives and budgets, so whether you’re planning a complete property refurbishment or just a few clever updates, incorporating some of these 2024 Liverpool property refurb trends can ensure your home remains current and desirable.
