'Glow Up’ Your Garden to Boost Its Appeal

A good-looking garden can be a magnet that draws potential buyers to your home. The good news is you don’t need to be Monty Don or Gertrude Jekyll (Google her) to give your garden a ‘glow up’. The six simple steps below mean you can take buyers happily up the garden path in the nicest possible way and come out smelling of roses.
1) Keep Your Lawn Neat and Tidy
A well-kept lawn is the first thing buyers notice. Regularly mowing your lawn makes the property appear well-maintained and inviting.

2) Glow Up Garden Furniture
If your garden furniture has seen better days, replacing it or covering it up is a good idea. Unappealing or broken furniture can give buyers the wrong idea about the overall condition of your home.

3) Refresh Your Fences
A fresh coat of paint on your fences can transform them from dull boundaries to eye-catching features. Choose a colour that complements your home and garden design to enhance the look and feel.

4) Declutter Your Garden
Just as decluttering inside your home is crucial to attracting buyers, the same goes for your garden. Remove unused items, tidy up garden tools, and keep the space open. This allows buyers to imagine their own additions to the garden.

5) Clean the Patio
Give your patio a thorough clean, ideally with a jet washer. This simple step can make a huge difference in presenting your garden as a space for relaxing and entertaining. It’s a cost-effective way to spruce up your outdoor area.

6) Garden Grand Designs?
If you have the budget, consider a more extensive garden redesign. According to garden designer Jo Thompson, a well-designed garden can add 5-10% to a property’s value. A complete garden makeover is a significant investment but can yield high returns when selling.
