Like many inner city suburbs, spacious homes are not always readily available in Broadmeadow. To maximise space in your property, declutter your home before you place it on the market. Place excess and bulky furniture into storage and replace them with more streamlined pieces, to create the illusion of space. Rearrange furniture placement to improve flow through your home, freeing up space and creating opportunities for potential purchasers.
Create an inviting entrance to your home by making a splash with colour, cultivating a welcoming garden and adding character to your front entrance. Bring your property to life with leafy plants, vibrant colours and scented flowers. Create a lush vertical garden on your verandah or balcony. Make the most of your courtyard by adding feature pots with mature plants for visual interest. Entice potential buyers in by creating a welcoming entry.
