Outdoor space is always going to be a good selling feature, but only if it is attractive and there's not too much of it ! In these busy times, purchasers still want outdoor space, but they don't have the time or inclination to put any work into it, so - get the grass cut, power wash the steps, garden furniture, patio and any mono-bloc, weed, re-paint the fences and plant up the borders and hanging baskets, have the barbeque sparkling and inviting and make it look as easy to maintain as possible. You're selling a lifestyle as well as selling your property.
