5 Ways to Make a Small Bathroom Look Bigger When You’re Selling Your Home

5 Ways to Make a Small Bathroom Look Bigger When You're Selling Your Home

If you’re selling your home in Boca Raton, your real estate agent will do a walk-through with you to let you know what you may need to improve to make the property more attractive to prospective buyers. If your home is sporting a small bathroom, your agent may suggest that you take a few steps to make it appear bigger and roomier. This guide explains exactly what you can do to make a small bathroom appear larger (and even be more functional) when your home is for sale.

5 Ways to Make a Small Bathroom Look Bigger When You’re Selling Your Home

Check out these five tips to make your small bathroom appear larger and more attractive to buyers:

  1. Repaint in a light, bright color
  2. Invest in a bigger mirror
  3. Choose art carefully
  4. Keep the countertops clear
  5. Add built-in storage, such as a shower niche or pull-outs in cabinets

Here’s a closer look at each.

Tip #1 for Making Your Small Bathroom Look Bigger: Repaint in a Light, Bright Color

When you’re selling your home in Boca Raton, repainting your bathroom in a light, bright color can make a huge difference in the way prospective buyers feel about your space. Light colors have a way of making spaces feel larger, and buyers like to get a cheerful feeling in any room; that means choosing the right colors can give buyers a great first impression. Talk to your real estate agent about what colors are popular right now (and what buyers are really looking for in your neighborhood). She’ll be able to let you in on the latest trends to help you sell your home.

Tip #2 for Making Your Small Bathroom Look Bigger: Invest in a Bigger Mirror

If your small bathroom has a tiny mirror, consider replacing it with a larger one. A bigger mirror will reflect more light, making the space feel brighter and larger. To make your bathroom appear even larger – and a touch classier – consider adding backlighting to the mirror. If that’s not feasible, you may be able to add LED lights or invest in a new light fixture that brightens the room even more.

Tip #3 for Making Your Small Bathroom Look Bigger: Choose Art Carefully

You may love that big, bold painting of a beach scene that you bought on vacation, but when you’re selling your home in Boca Raton, it’s important to choose art carefully. In general, smaller pieces are better because they don’t overwhelm the space. Stick with one or two pieces of art that complement the colors in the room, and make sure they’re hung at eye-level so the space feels open.

Tip #4 for Making Your Small Bathroom Look Bigger: Keep the Countertops Clear

When prospective buyers see a bathroom countertop that’s cluttered with toiletries, it can make the space feel small and cramped. One of the best things you can do to make a small bathroom appear larger is to keep the countertops clear. Put away any lotions, soaps, and shampoos; remove your toothbrush holder and any other toiletries that are on the counters. Tuck all these items away, particularly when prospective buyers come to tour your home, so that they don’t interrupt clean lines of sight. Keeping anything but a soap pump on your counter is a mistake when you’re trying to sell a home with a small bathroom.

Tip #5 for Making Your Small Bathroom Look Bigger: Add Built-In Storage

One way to make a small bathroom appear bigger and more functional is to add built-in storage. If you have the space, consider adding a shower niche or pull-outs in cabinets. These features can help keep the room organized and tidy, which is important to buyers. If you don’t have the space (or the budget) for built-ins, consider adding a small storage cabinet or an over-the-toilet shelf unit. These pieces can help keep your bathroom organized and make it appear larger at the same time.
