With homes ranging from compact 1-beds to spacious 4-bedroom properties, prioritise window treatments early - the French doors and large windows will benefit from quality blinds or curtains for privacy and energy efficiency. For smaller properties, choose light colours and clever storage solutions to maximise space. Larger family homes can accommodate statement flooring like engineered wood throughout ground floors. Consider professional decorating for feature walls, especially in open-plan living areas. Garden landscaping varies significantly depending on plot size - smaller gardens suit low-maintenance designs while larger plots offer scope for family-friendly features.
