With 2-4 bedroom homes, focus on creating cohesive flooring throughout ground floor living areas - luxury vinyl or engineered wood works brilliantly. In larger 4-bedroom properties, consider different carpet styles for bedrooms versus hard flooring downstairs. Made-to-measure blinds are essential for the larger windows typical in new builds. For 3-4 bed homes, invest in fitted wardrobes for the master bedroom to maximise storage. Neutral paint colours work best initially - you can always add personality with accessories. Garden landscaping is key given the development's suburban setting - consider low-maintenance options like artificial grass or decking areas.
