Home Additions That Add Value


Looking to increase the value of your Pittsburgh home? One of the best ways for homeowners to increase their home’s value while earning a strong return on their investment is through a home addition. Home additions, such as kitchens or master bath suites, can greatly raise the resale value of your home.

Increased Value with a Kitchen Addition

According to John Kmiecik, regional vice president for the National Association of REALTORS®, one of the smartest places for homeowners to invest their money is in their kitchen. When prospective homeowners are looking at a house, most of their time is spent standing in the kitchen or sitting at the table, Kmiecik explains.

Kitchens are the heart of the home, and Pittsburgh homeowners who choose to improve their culinary spaces can expect a 78.5% return on their investment according to Remodeling Magazine’s 2019 Cost vs. Value Report. Whether you think you may sell your home or you plan to enjoy your kitchen for years to come, a kitchen addition will provide increased value to your home and a strong return on your initial investment.

Installing custom cabinetry, countertops, energy-efficient appliances, and more during the kitchen addition process also offer a quality end result that you can enjoy for years to come—and it will also increase home value.

Master Bath Additions for Added Home Value

Another smart investment for homeowners to consider is a master bath suite addition. Increasing square footage will automatically increase the home’s value, and bathroom additions earn Pittsburgh homeowners up to 64.5% back from their investment.

In particular, adding a master bath suite is a great option for those looking to increase value before bringing their home to market, especially if master suites are common in the area.

Not only does adding square footage and improving your master suite increase a home’s value, incorporating premium materials, tiles, textures, and lighting adds visual appeal that will last.
