If you have read any of my previous blogs- you know that I am particularly adamant about lighting' all types. But the one place I hold in deep regard is outdoor landscape lighting for the home. Not only does this pay special attention to your plants, sidewalks, trees, and driveway- but it enhances the value of your home. It also addresses security issues, as well as safety. The design looks particularly lovely in the Spring- but can be a stunner after an evening snowfall- turning the lawn into a winter wonderland.
For homeowners who have made a sizable investment in landscaping, it makes sense to think about adding another 10% to 15% to the bill for professional outdoor lighting. After all, buyers aren't always looking at houses on a Saturday afternoon.
At the low end, installing a front or back porch light cost about $300 including materials and labor. Professionally installed landscape lighting averages $2,000 to $4,500. and well worth the investment.
So many special features of your outdoor home can be highlighted:
OUTDOOR PATIOS
LOVELY GRAND TREES
SHRUBBERY AND FLOWER GARDENS
OUTDOOR FIREPITS
TRELLISES
STONE WALLS
SLATE WALKWAYS
DECKS
POOL LIGHTING
The list is endless and only limited to your imagination. Since you only have one chance to make a First Impression- do it dramatically with lighting!
Need any ideas before listing your home? I would be happy to help. Call me,
