D E S I G N + B U I L D The everlasting appeal of solid hardwood floors BrandPointContent.com edited by YourVilla Sta Today’s homeowners are more invested than ever in keeping their homes updated by elevating their style and taking on projects ranging from bringing in fresh new paint colors to serious bathroom or kitchen renovations. Alongside these home updates is the trend of rethinking flooring and returning to the foundational roots of hardwood. Where classic style meets value With hundreds of years of history to its name, the natural beauty of hardwood never goes out of style. As the floor covering of choice for countless generations around the globe, hardwood became a popular and reliable choice for flooring in the U.S. during the late 1800s, according to Wood Floor Business Magazine. Investing in a hardwood floor also adds value to your home. According to Realtor.com, installing hardwood floors can boost the value of your home by as much as 2.5%, and you can possibly see a 70-80% return on investment. Lifelong beauty Beyond their natural beauty and organic design, hardwood floors are strong, versatile and easy to clean. With proper care, hardwood floors can last a lifetime. Hardwood also enhances the aesthetic appeal of your home and is likely one of the first things someone will notice when they step inside. Not only does it make your home feel effortlessly elegant and welcoming, but it also adds natural warmth to any space. Another advantage is the wide variety of hardwood floors, so you can pick the color and design that best suits your current style or set the tone for any interior decorating renovations. 20 | YourVilla Magazine  4 4 4 4 4 4 4       € ‚ ƒ „ … †
