Home & Garden Trends to Maximize Your Home’s Value

FEATURE

BY CARLA HUCKABEE

THE REAL ESTATE WEEKLY WWW.C-VILLE.COM

N

o homeowner wants to be the last to build a farm-style house or remodel to an all-white kitchen. Unless, of course, they love the style and don’t care about maximizing the return on their investment.

Fortunately, home trends are often slow to change. Here we are two years out, and many of the features popularized by the pandemic show genuine staying power.

Even as students return to in-person school and workers head back to the office, homeowners and buyers are sticking with their new vision of what a home can be, with a couple of twists.

It all started with new and varied demands on existing space. Then it made sense to expand day-to-day living to the outdoors. Interior color and ease of use muscled their way into the formula along with reduced environmental impact. These are some of the trends still defining 2022.

Open Design Plus Reports of the death of the great room and open design living concepts are pre-

mature. Open living is still in demand if there are alternative spaces for privacy. It’s no longer ideal to have only a great room, a few bedrooms, and maybe an office.

Anyone who lives with a loud phone talker or a pacer or who doesn’t want to be photo-bombed on Zoom knows the importance of at least one, maybe even two separate private rooms to conduct business and conversations.

Anna Hunter, Design Manager for Southern Development Homes, says, “We continue to see home spaces expanding for a variety of uses, not just for working environments these days. But also for gyms, kids’ entertainment rooms, and media rooms.”

Bringing functions home to avoid crowds may be here to stay, but not without a cost. Those extra workspaces, gyms, and entertainment rooms increase the home’s footprint and its price tag.

What is playing out in the semi-custom home market with Southern Development Homes is also true for custom builders like Charlottesville Area Builders. President Mike Sadler, says “The three biggest trends we see are larger homes to accommodate more flexible space, a home gym, and an in-law suite.”

A Place for Grandma?

An extra living suite, attached or detached from the main house, is streaking hot enough that it’s a demerit if the property lacks this option. Sadler calls this the number one trend he is seeing in his custom builds. “This is huge. Whether the suite is used for the in-laws, as a semiseparate living space for a teen, or for a short-term rental à la Airbnb, this trend is only getting bigger.”

Accelerated by Covid and supported by zoning codes attempting to expand affordable housing, the number of accessory dwelling units and other configurations on traditionally single-family lots is set to explode.

At Southern Development Homes, Hunter designs for this multi-generational living possibility every day. “I’m seeing clients deciding to host mom or dad back into their home as caregivers.”

That’s exactly the scenario that played out in Charlottesville this winter. Two parents, still mostly working from home, struggled with childcare for their two preschool-age sons. They had recently built a backyard accessory dwelling unit as a short-term rental. At the parents’ invitation, the boys’ grandmother sold her home in a hot sellers’ market and

moved into the backyard dwelling to care for the boys.

Once the household’s needs move beyond childcare, the couple’s backyard unit can revert to a rental or see its next iteration as something different.

Hunter encourages clients to imagine all sorts of scenarios for these extended living units. That may include the need for extra income as a rental, extra teen space, a work-from-home suite, or helping with parents. “Design for it all. We design in-law suites with various ADA modifications for their needs.” With forethought, most of these can be subtle and flexible built-ins as part of a universal design approach.

By anticipating the various life stages of the family, a well-designed extended living suite becomes some of the most valuable square footage of the home.

Cool Colors, Clean Lines Once you move beyond the footprint and flexibility of the layout and add in extended living space, other hot trends emerge related to materials, colors, and lines.

White on white or gray on white may have run its course. A couple of years of mostly at-home living has homeown-

REALTOR® Joey Conover is Co-owner of Latitude 38, a sustainable building company in Charlottesville. Focused on urban infill properties and home renovations, Latitude 38 caters to the crowd that didn’t flee to the countryside during Covid. This group welcomes higher density, less on-site parking, and landscaping that minimizes mowing.

Latitude 38’s modern homes are healthy, durable, low maintenance, and in high demand. And they’re usually in walkable neighborhoods tucked in on narrow lots and positioned to preserve existing trees.

Merging Indoors and Out Another hot trend (ignited by spending time at home during the pandemic) is to bring the outdoors in and the indoors out. Oversized windows, outdoor living rooms, and courtyards are must-haves in 2022 and beyond.

Large and abundant windows to fill rooms with natural light and offer views beyond the home’s four walls are high on

Nix the Lawn With the picturesque UVA Lawn held up as the ideal, replacing lawns with something more productive and ecologically sound is particularly challenging in Central Virginia.

The Washington Post described the 40 million acres of lawn in the U.S. as a “soul-crushing time suck.” And homeowners are beginning to catch on. Even here.

Foot by foot, trendsetting homeowners are converting grass wasteland into a landscape that gives back more than it takes.

“We are finally evolving out of our cattle pastures,” says Mike McConkey, Owner of Edible Landscaping in Afton.

Known widely for its extensive highquality plant selection, the company enjoyed its best year in 2021. This year will follow suit if the persimmon, pawpaw, and other plant deliveries keep up with skyrocketing demand.

One of McConkey’s long-time customers had to move from her home where she had converted most of the lawn to edible and regenerative plantings. “It turned out to be a big selling point. The buyers were thrilled to have that work already done for them.

“For anyone stuck with an expanse of grass and just catching up, go slow and plant a couple of things the first year while you’re figuring it out. For inspiration, tour our orchard on All About Fruit Day, June 4.”

MARKETING SERVICES Beth Wood beth@c-ville.com • 434.996.4019

Edible Landscaping joins many other experts in Central Virginia. Scottsville Supply Company caters to the backyard beekeeper. Charlottesville Area Tree Stewards seek to expand the dwindling tree canopy through education and plant sales. The Natural Garden is Shenandoah Valley’s source for living landscapes. The Nature Foundation at Wintergreen fosters an understanding and appreciation of our Blue Ridge landscape through conservation and education.

Hummingbird Hill Native Plant Nursery, in Free Union, helps homeowners transition to native landscapes. Coowner Brigitte McCauley says, “There’s nothing like watching a spot of lifeless lawn become a habitat filled with native plants.” Homeowners jumping on board with this trend are critical in the effort to counteract habitat loss and support declining pollinators.

McCauley suggests homeowners first look at all sections of their property.

“Identify the native plants already there.

Then work to protect and help them spread by removing non-native plant competition. Most places, even small city lots, have some natives (like Common Blue Violets) already present in the lawn.”

Native plants are becoming star performers in small and large lots, new construction, or existing homes. Ben Davis, VP of Sales for Craig Builders, says many customers are rethinking large expanses of lawn. “What I have been seeing on larger parcels is the installation of meadows. The team at J.W. Townsend has been at the forefront of this trend.

Some communities are doing this for their common areas as well. It provides a colorful and low maintenance alternative to areas that were traditionally grass and had to be mowed weekly.”

Eliminating the chemicals and watering and the constant drone of mowers and blowers takes time but it’s a movement that has legs.

Altogether, these trends deliver the flexibility to meet a household’s needs for many years, reduce environmental impact, and create attractive and calming living spaces, indoors and out. The increased resale value years later is dwarfed by the return on investment that comes from enjoying life at home. Every single day.

the list of essentials. Whether the views are of the Blue Ridge or a neighborhood, creative landscaping can create an oasis right outside the window.

But looking doesn’t compare to being outside. Homeowners want their yards to be an extension of their living space.

They are investing in hardscapes to create a relaxing oasis furnished with durable outdoor sofas, tables, rugs, chairs, and décor.

Outdoor living is just as crucial and in demand on smaller homesites as those with ample acreage, perhaps even more so. The Avondale Breezeway is one of Craig Builders’ newest designs. It and the Currituck Breezeway model offer private courtyards for owners to soak up the sun, relax in the shade and spend more of their lives outside. Both models work well on smaller parcels.

New home buyers expect a high-performing home. HERS, Pearl Certification, Viridiant and other certification entities assure a homeowner that some level of reduced environmental impact was achieved. Even owners of decadesold homes are choosing to upgrade their space and have those improvements certified through Pearl or another entity.

Moving way beyond LED lights and Energy-Star appliances, sophisticated buyers are demanding Net Zero homes and paying attention to the upfront carbon emissions of the materials used. As global conversations shift and building science delivers more data on lifecycle emissions of building products, the market is also shifting.

FSC(Forest Stewardship Council) certified woods, sustainably grown bamboo, natural grasses, vegan leather, and other ethically sourced and responsibly made products for the home are what buyers want.

ers yearning for something a bit more interesting.

“More varied colors aside from the classic whites and greys are showing up on painted cabinets,” says Hunter. “Owners are leaning more toward navy, robin’s egg blue, or hunter green cabinet colors.

“We’re also seeing a shift back toward nature’s beauty, with some customers venturing more toward natural maple or cherry cabinets. Pairing these with high contrasting blacks, whites, or greys offsets the bold variation seen in the natural wood grain of these cabinets.”

Easy to clean is also a hot trend.

Quartz is becoming the preferred countertop because it can take on many looks and it is easy to clean and maintain. Updating the traditional subway tile backsplash with an elongated four-inch by 12-inch ceramic tile gives it a fresh look.

Floors and shower tiles are getting larger still. All of these reduce exposed grout, making cleaning a breeze.

“Low maintenance products are a priority,” says Hunter. “Homeowners want durability and ease of mind first and foremost. This is an easy way to reduce stress; by choosing easier-maintained, simplified products. I’m seeing fewer customers choose real wood flooring.

Instead, the majority of people are selecting laminate or luxury vinyl flooring due to its incredible durability and wildly realistic looks.”
