4 Best Ways to Improve the Entryway of Your San Rafael Luxury Home

 

An entryway is often overlooked but this space gives the first impression of your house to your guests or potential buyers. The entryway signals the beginning to any interior and the way you design it can spell the difference between a striking foyer or a dull porch. Read on to find out how you can make your luxury home for sale in San Rafael more appealing by enhancing your entryway.

 

Here are four sure ways to beautify the entryway of your San Rafael luxury homes.

 

  1. Put a mirror on the wall

Mirrors can make small areas look larger. They also reflect light from the outside making the house appear brighter. Aside from defining space, it also makes sense to hang a mirror because it lets you take one last look at yourself on your way out the door.

 

  1. Create landing spots

Most people have a tendency to unload their stuff as soon as they walk in the door. You might want to keep all your loose belongings such as mail and keys in a tray or box on top of a console table. You might also want to designate a specific place for items such as hats, shoes and bags.

 

  1. Don’t forget the doormat

Placing a doormat outside will prevent all the dirt from entering your high end home for sale in San Rafael. It is a smart way of cutting down on cleaning time. You should look to use ultra-absorbent mats made from recycled polyester and durable rubber to create an eco-friendly indoor or outdoor mat that will protect your entryway.

 

The quality of the doormat found on the entryway of your San Rafael luxury homes makes a lot of difference.

 

  1. Add Color

Paint your walls with a rich color such as teal or deep rust. You should also consider painting the ceiling. But make sure the color works with the color scheme of your whole house. If your ceiling is under eight feet tall, paint it a shade or two lighter than the walls. Paint it a shade or two darker if it’s over eight feet. If you opt to have neutral walls, add life by complementing it with a vibrant rug or artwork.

 

It does not take much to convert an entryway from a boring space into an attractive and inviting zone. Set the mood of your San Rafael luxury home for sale and welcome guests with a warm and stylish entryway. Get started today with the given tips.
