Add Value to Your Des Moines Home With These Spaces

COVID-19 has many of us stuck in our homes. With kids bouncing off the walls, pets begging for attention, and your employer waiting for your attendance in a Zoom meeting, it's very likely that your home seems more claustrophobic than it ever did in the past. You need a space to call your own!

These five rooms will not only add value to your property, but also create the dedicated spaces that you and your family members need. These spaces can be created by redesigning an existing room or finishing your basement or attic. Work with our team to decide which is best for you!

Home Office

It's hard to work from home when you're doing it in the dining room, isn't it? Create a home office lit by natural light from a sizable window, paint the walls in a calming neutral color, and install built-in shelves for files and office materials.

Install a variety of lighting including recessed lighting and overhead lighting, so you'll always have sufficient illumination to get your work done. Feeling especially ambitious? Work with our team to install a beautiful built-in desk and shelving.

Got kids at home? Consider soundproofing your new office for ultimate serenity and productivity at home.

Playroom

Are the kids driving you nuts? Create a play room where they can let off steam, play together and leave you to get your work done elsewhere in the house. Work with our experienced team to add a mural on the walls or install built-in storage and shelves for toys. Decorate in bright, cheerful colors to make your home's playroom the perfect space for a few rambunctious kids.

Family Room

Want a space where you can send the kids but don't want it to be room exclusively for children? A family room is the solution! Ask our dedicated team to help you design a room that is large enough to hold you whole family as they engage in different activities, from playing games to watching television.

Guest Room

A guest room is a great multi-purpose space that you can use for meditation, working on hobbies and taking naps. When guests come to visit, your guest room provides a private place where they can sleep comfortably. Qualities of a pleasant guest room:

• Natural light. Install a large window to keep your space light and bright throughout the day.
• Neutral colors. Paint the walls in calming, neutral colors like soft gray or a light sandy brown.
• Warm floors. Install new carpeting to keep the floors warm and soft for guests.

Home Gym

Do you miss your time at the gym? Is health and wellness especially important to you? Work with our team to create the ultimate home gym. Soft flooring prevents accidents and proper ventilation keeps the air comfortable in this kind of space. Well-insulated walls can help with temperature control while also providing some soundproofing, so you can listen to music while you work out.

Make a list of the pieces of equipment you hope to keep in your home gym. Share this list with our team who will need to know how much space to create.
