Luxury Backsplashes for Adding Curb Appeal and Home Value
Are you looking to update your kitchen this spring? Appliances, color schemes, and fixtures should be neutral if you are considering curb appeal, but the backsplash can really make a statement in a good way. Hi, I’m Kimmy Rolph and I specialize in luxury home selling and buying on The Main Line and redecorating and refreshing every spring is one of my favorite things to do, besides spring home selling, of course. A backsplash adds texture and a pop of color if you need it and can make such a difference in an otherwise boring kitchen,
Here are some of the latest trends in backsplashes, along with a few of my tips if you plan on staying in your home over five years.
First is shiplap. This is a tileless option that is very Nantucket and pairs well with wood countertops. Second, is painted tiles. Whenever I travel and we visit someplace where they have painted tiles, this is a great place to get inspiration, even if you don’t want to travel back with them. Painted tiles in a uniform pattern add a pop of color and contrast to your cabinetry. Third, I know we have all heard of subway tile, no news there, but one application sends the subway tiles up a double height ceiling and that really adds volume to the space. Fourth are marine and jewel tones, think deep emerald and blues. These are great colors if you plan on living someplace long term, but are not all buyers taste. Fifth, tiny triangles. I love this look for framing a breakfast nook, it doesn’t distract but adds some fun contrast and blends beautifully with wood. Last, is a vertical wood grain. This look is absolutely stunning with lighter colored cabinetry. Be careful that the pairings are not too dark.
If you are looking to sell your home and would like to talk about what it is worth on this market or ways to prepare your home for sale in the next six months, I have some of the most comprehensive marketing to reach buyers on The Main Line and you are just a phone call away from knowing your home value.
