Make the most of limited space D

ownsizing with regard to living space is a trend that has long been associated with empty nesters and senior citizens. As children move out and start families of their own, many homeowners decide to downsize to less expensive, more manageable properties.

But downsizing is not just for seniors anymore. According to a 2017 sur vey from the popular real estate website Trulia, among homeowners currently living in homes larger than 2,000 square feet, more would choose a smaller home than a larger one if they decided to move this year (60.6 percent to 39.4 percent).

Homeowners who decided to downsize or those who purchased a small proper ty to begin with may need a few pointers to make the most of their limited space.

• Reconsider your furniture. Furniture can make rooms feel cozy, cramped or spacious. For homeown-

smaller common areas more welcoming and less cluttered.

• Put paint to work. Paint is another way to make the most of a limited space. Painting certain pieces of furniture the same color as the wall can make the furniture blend in and feel less imposing. The result is a room that feels calm and open, even if there is less space to move around than homeowners might have grown accustomed to in their larger homes.

• Keep sur faces free of clutter.

Surfaces such as dining tables, coffee tables and kitchen counters tend to accumulate clutter. While such clutter might not feel overwhelming in a large home, in small spaces crowded surfaces can make it feel as though the walls are closing in. Make an ef for t to keep sur faces free of clutter, resolving to discard or put items away each night before going to bed.

ers with limited space in their homes, fur niture that also can be used as storage can save space without sacrificing comfor t. For the bedroom, choose a storage bed if the quarters are cramped and it’s difficult to find space for two dressers. Such beds also can be used to store bed linens if closet space is limited. Purchase storage ottomans and/or end tables with storage beneath to make living areas feel less cramped.

• Discard some items. Homeowners who are downsizing from large homes may need to par t with some of their furniture to make their transition to smaller homes go more smoothly. For example, homeowners may need to get by with just one bedroom nightstand and may even need to replace their existing nightstands with something more compact. Discarding living room end tables and downsizing to a smaller coffee table also can help homeowners make

C

it provides more spray power while containing splash, which means faster cleanup for tough-to-rinse foods.

3. Install a Kitchen Backsplash Cost: $125 - $250 (varies based on materials and if paying a pro) Benefits: Creates a focal point, protects walls from cooking splatter, prevents water damage.

If your new kitchen has the blahs, a fresh backsplash may be the solution. In addition to protective and easy-toclean qualities, a backsplash provides many customization possibilities, from material and color, to cost. Options could be glass mosaics, salvaged brick, or even peel-andstick tile for easy installation (hello afternoon project)!

4. Replace Your Showerhead Cost: $75 - $150 Benefits: Offers personalization, adds style, enhances daily routine.

New to DIY? Replacing a showerhead is an easy way to get your feet wet -- pun intended! Whether trying to save water with a low-flow fixture or updating something out of style, swapping showerheads can be done in minutes.

For ultimate customization, try a multi-function showerhead like Moen’s Attract combination handshower and rainshower with Magnetix, which provides three showering options for your perfectly personalized shower every time. Plus, the magnetic dock on the handshower makes re-docking a snap.

5. Add a Coat of Paint

ongratulations, you’ve purchased a home! Now what? You’ve saved a million ideas on Pinterest and you’re ready to start making improvements. But how do you prioritize to make the most of your money?

Consider these simple upgrades to transform your new house into your dream home.

1. Update Lighting Cost: $10 (box of light bulbs) - $300 (new fixture) Benefits: Brightens the room, enhances ambience, increases energy efficiency.

Let there be light! There are several ways to make a room feel brighter. Start with something quick, like swapping out bulbs to brighter or more efficient choices. For a mid-level task and a dose of style, add new lampshades.

Or go big by replacing outdated fixtures with on-trend options.

2. Find a Better Faucet Cost: $150 - $500 Benefits: Boosts home appeal, improves kitchen functionality.

One in five millennials say they want to update their kitchen, according to Moen research, and a simple faucet upgrade can be impactful. Replacing a basic kitchen faucet with a one-handle pulldown, like Moen’s Sleek faucet, creates a clean, modern look while adding functionality that makes cleanup a breeze, thanks to the easy-to-maneuver spray wand. Equipped with Power Clean technology,

Cost: $25 - $60 Benefits: Provides an instant makeover.

Whether your space is screaming for a makeover (mustard walls, anyone?), or you’re itching to try new trends, a coat of paint makes a big impact. Try creating an accent wall with a pop of color or fun pattern -- it’s a smaller project that’s easy for first-time DIYers.

6. Maximize Space with Shelves Cost: $10 - $45 Benefits: Maximizes space, revamps walls.

One in three millennials lacks the confidence to hang a shelf, according to Moen research, but they shouldn’t!

With practice and the right tools, installing shelving is an inexpensive project to help better utilize space Creative ways to add storage include installing floating shelves for books or adding floor-to-ceiling shelving in a closet.

7. Coordinate Accessories Cost: $20 - $40 Benefits: Creates a consistent look, easy to install.

Create a cohesive look throughout your home with coordinating accessories. Choose hardware matching in color and style with the existing fixtures, sink and flooring to achieve a sophisticated feel from top to bottom., Easy-to-install accessories, like towel bars and rings with Moen’s innovative Press & Mark technology, ensure fast and accurate installation. Accessories with the technology have a washable ink stamp to show exactly where to drill (perfect for novice DIYers).

Personal Space

Classic Charm

T

BY LIBBY JOHNSON

he best way to describe the home of Scott and Cheri Searcy, at 426 W. 7th St., is “the best of both worlds.” Built in 1895, the house has tons of charm and classic details, but the Searcys’ have poured heart and soul into the modernizing every space.

The result is a spacious home in a prime midtown location, that is ready for its next hundred or so years.

From the street, the home’s classic facade of traditional white clapboard (upgraded to modern and weather-proof siding) and large windows welcomes visitors up the brick steps to the front porch, which is the perfect place for morning coffee or an afternoon iced tea.

Step inside the front door, and find yourself in a large foyer, which was most likely a formal parlor in the home’s early years. Original hardwood floors, tall ceilings, extra wide

baseboards, and a stunning L-shaped staircase with hand-carved newel posts, all impress without creating a museum-like environment.

Off the foyer, is a large, light filled family room that flows seamlessly into the generous sized dining room, which boasts a brick fireplace and hearth. The dining room feeds into the kitchen, a thoroughly modern space, which the Searcys’ reconfigured and totally modernized- through a charming tall doorway complete with a working glass transom at the top.

Built to maximize airflow in the days before air conditioning, transoms are currently on trend and being used in new construction for their architectural charm. In fact, the flow of this entire home is open and mimics the floorplans of classically inspired new construction, in which spaces are not separate and isolated.

The new and fully modern kitchen

blends seamlessly with the rest of the home, while still managing to provide every comfort today’s homeowners desire. Clean, simple cabinets close with the touch of hand and have plenty of smart storage space. Stainless appliances -including double ovenslook and function beautifully, Striking black subway tile creates a dramatic and functional background that ties it all together...and there’s even a pot filler over the range.

“The kitchen and porches have been our favorite parts, and where the family gathers,” Scott Searcy said.

Rounding out the first floor of the home are a sun porch, which could serve perfectly as be a playroom or exercise room, and a bonus space. In the bonus space, the Searcys’ installed a mid 20th century sink that was in the home when they purchased it. Tucked in the corner of the room, it has tons of Pinterest potential as a wet bar.

Upstairs, high ceilings and overall spaciousness result in a floor plan that rivals any new construction, with the added details of fireplaces and transoms over doors. The master bedroom has a walk-in closet that is really more of a dressing room, than closet. Here, the Searcys’ installed a stained glass window they uncovered during the remodel.

Scott Searcy said they also uncovered a hidden staircase, and that though he and his wife love the home and the area, “We are in the empty nest years and the house is too large for us.”

426 W. 7th St., is a perfect blend of modern and classic and old and new.

It’s the type of home buyers are racing to buy in revamped areas of bigger cities, and it’s ready for it’s next generation in the heart of Owensboro.

How families can prepare for downsizing

D

uring the housing market crash of the first decade of the 21st centur y, many families learned to get by with less. For some of those families, less lavish living fit like a glove, prompting them to change their lifestyles for the long haul.

Downsizing to smaller homes was a move made by many families over the last several years. Some did so out of economic need, while others preferred the simpler lifestyle that often comes with living in a smaller home. Families about to downsize to smaller homes may find the task ahead of them daunting, but there are some ways to make the transition to less spacious residences go more smoothly.

• Discuss downsizing with kids.

In many ways, youngsters adapt to change better than adults. But it’s still a good idea for parents to explain downsizing to their children before they begin to prepare for their transitions to smaller living spaces. Kids who understand the reasons behind downsizing are more likely to embrace the move, while those who have not been involved in the process may find it more difficult to adjust. When the time comes to begin choosing items to discard, allow children to choose which of their items they will not be keeping.

Respect their decisions, exercising patience if kids are initially reluctant or don’t seem to understand downsizing.

• Design a downsizing system.

It is not uncommon for families to be lukewarm when the initial process of downsizing begins, as people are understandably hesitant to discard items they worked hard to accumulate or cherish for various reasons. A downsizing system can make that initial period less uncomfor table, especially if family members are together on the first day of downsizing. Let each family member take a turn choosing an item to sell, donate or discard, and continue so family members know ever yone is in it together. Once kids have seen that ever yone is making sacrifices, they

are more likely to embrace downsizing.

• Begin in the attic, basement and garage. Downsizing to a smaller home often means less storage space, and attics, basements and garages tend to ser ve as in-house storage units where seldom-used items accumulate over time. When

tr ying to choose which items won’t be coming along to their smaller homes, families can star t in their cur rent homes’ attics, basements and garages, looking for items that take up too much space or those that will ser ve no practical purpose at their new homes. For example, that snow blower in the garage may be

a godsend when the time comes to clear your expansive current driveway of another stor m’s wor th of snow, but it might not be worth the space it takes up if your next home has a short driveway or just on-street parking. Once rooms used primarily for storage have been cleaned out, you can then move on to other rooms in the house to find items that won’t be going with you. Look to sell, donate or discard items that will not ser ve much purpose at your next home.

• Don’t just discard, donate or sell. One of the hidden benefits of downsizing to a smaller home is the chance to make some money by selling those items you won’t be needing after you move into your new digs. Schedule a yard sale and give ample notice to neighbors or fellow community members so you can get as much as possible for the items you no longer need. If money is no object, donating your unwanted items to a local goodwill store or another charity is a great way to ensure your possessions find their way into the homes of people who tr uly need them. When getting rid of personal items, only discard those items that are no longer functional. If they can still ser ve a purpose, then someone can benefit from using them.

• Promise to revisit the decision down the road after moving. Families who are downsizing for a lifestyle change as opposed to out of economic need can promise to revisit the decision together in the future.

Families may be quick to adjust and be grateful for the change, while others might realize their decision did not produce the desired results.

Promising to revisit the decision once the dust has settled can give ever yone some peace of mind and make the transition that much easier.

Families downsize to smaller homes for a number of reasons, and there are many ways to make that transition go more smoothly regardless of the reasons behind the move.

Buying in a competitive market

BY BPT

A

s the weather gets warmer and school comes to a close, the real estate market also heats up. If you’r e planning on buying a home, you’ll likely find mor e pr oper ties on the market during the summer months.

However, increased competition could present challenges on the path to landing the home of your dreams.

To get an edge against other bidders and find a house that you’ll love for many years to come, Sharon Steele, an award winning sales professional affiliated with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, lends her expertise for home buying in a hot market.

Get pre-approved financing

In a competitive real estate market, pr epar e yourself with pr eapproved financing. Not only will your mor tgage br oker tell you what you can afford, if you are preapproved, you will have better negotiating power when purchasing a property.

Fur ther more, when you know exactly what you can afford, you are more apt to stick within your budget and not be carried away during bidding wars. Remember, it’s important to understand the total monthly costs of home ownership. Beyond the mor tgage premiums, factor in utilities, taxes, insurance and maintenance costs. Being “house poor” is never a good idea.

Consider long-term needs

Are you planning to grow your family in the near future? Then you may want to shop for a larger house in need of some work rather than that completely updated twobed bungalow; it may not meet your needs in the next five years.

Are you looking to downsize?

It might make sense to consider a ranch home before your knees star t to hur t and you dread climbing stairs. Purchasing a home will be one of your largest investments; make sure your decision matches your future lifestyle expectations

rather than just the needs of the present moment.

Look for potential

If you’re looking at purchasing a home that needs a little elbow grease, make sure you invest in a design that is going to withstand the test of time and be appealing for years to come. This rings true most of all when choosing the right appliances; stainless steel has been highly desirable for decades and continues to be a mainstay in a timeless kitchen design. For a modern twist on stainless, LG’s Black Stainless Steel Series, which features a warm and sophisticated finish found in new refrigerators, ranges, dishwashers and microwaves, is sure to look just as stunning many years from now as it does today. The new fin-

ish seamlessly complements a range of infinite design styles and colors, elevating the look of any kitchen.

As long as the house has a good structure, the space you need, and meets your immediate must haves, you can add special elements over time to make it your dream home.

When you do have the time and budget for a full remodel, you can envision how LG’s black stainless steel appliances may look in various kitchen styles with the Vir tual Kitchen Design Tool, helping you visualize your dream kitchen for a strategic remodel with more than 1 million possible layouts.

Do research in advance

Do you need easy access to the commuter rail and bus lines? Where will your children attend school?

Is the area safe? Use websites like Realtor.com and ColdwellBankerHomes.com to hone in on neighborhoods that best suit you and your family.

These websites have area maps and direct links to information about school systems, crime rates, area amenities, and lists of local restaurants and shopping areas. View sideby-side community comparisons for easy evaluation. Put in your search parameters and sign-up to receive proper ty aler ts on new homes that enter the market or when prices change in your desired neighborhood.

A competitive market can make the home buying pr ocess mor e stressful, but these exper t tips will keep you focused as you prepare to move into your new home.
