Kitchen

Trends

Check out what's new in kitchen design. New doors don't have to be expensive. Simply changing handles is a cheap way to give kitchen units a lift. Choose handles that are similar in size and shape to your existing ones to save you having to fill and sand holes. Fix any broken tiles.

No pets

Remove all evidence of pets. Put bowls, beds and toys out of sight. Never have pets in the kitchen when showing your home.

Off the menu

Kitchens should smell fresh and clean. Even with extractor fans, kitchens can harbour odours.
Eat out or keep your cooking bland if you have viewings planned. Baking bread and brewing coffee does not enhance the saleability of your property, but it does create a very homely atmosphere.

Wash day

Do not run appliances in the kitchen during a viewing of your property. You want to create an impression of calm and style, not humdrum housework.

Clean lines

Is your kitchen really clean? Run your fingers over the surfaces to feel for stickiness or grease. Units should be spotless, inside and out. Keep surfaces as clear as possible. Put anything away that you do not use daily. It will be easier to keep clean this way too.

Casual dining

If your kitchen is large enough to accommodate a table and seating, make sure there's one there, even if you also have a separate dining room. An extra eating area in the kitchen suggests value for money.
