Or if you have a young family and lot of pets, your life may be most improved by having a more practical style of flooring. One that it is easy to clean and polish, such as bamboo. Then you won't have to spend your time maintaining it, for it to look good.

Another popular change that you can complete in your property is to add an additional room. This a great way of improving living standards, as you can use them room for many different purposes.
For example, if could be used as another bedroom, so everyone in the family has their own room. Or it could be used a place in which to relax, which is often the reason that folks buy a conservatory or a have an extension built on the back of their house.
More light
Something else that can seriously upgrade the standard of living in your home is making a change that allows more natural light in.
