Are you searching for a small home improvement that’ll transform your home without needing a full renovation? Adding bay windows should be on your radar. Unlike ordinary windows, bay windows jut outward to dramatic effect. They don’t just enhance your home’s aesthetic appeal; they can also add value to it.
Let’s have a look at the many ways they achieve this.
- Better Natural Lighting. Bay windows allow more natural light into a room, making interior spaces feel brighter and more open. The side panes also provide views from different directions, bringing in light from various angles. As a result, you won’t need artificial lighting during the day.
- More Living Room. The extended space of a bay window provides usable interior floor area, effectively expanding a room. With the additional space, you can also add seating, shelves, or plants. In small spaces, this can be a godsend.
- Enhanced Ventilation. In most cases, the side panes of bay windows are operable, allowing you to open and close them. This allows for fresh airflow and can reduce humidity and stagnant air in your home. Proper ventilation creates a healthier indoor environment.
- Higher Property Value. By improving aesthetics, lighting, and space, bay windows are an attractive feature to home buyers (if you decide to sell your home). The added living area and appeal make homes with bay windows more valuable on the real estate market.
