Supplemental Storage Provides Cost-Effective Option

Having a home with walk-in closets and plenty of storage space is ideal, but not every home offers this. If you find a house that’s perfect for you otherwise, in terms of location, price and layout, you don’t have to pass on it due to a lack of storage space. You can always create more.
Here are a few ideas for supplemental storage units that can give you the extra space you need:
  • Give your kitchen more storage room and style by placing a freestanding cabinet in it, such as a vintage armorer. Use it as a china cabinet to hold your best dinnerware set, along with other elegant items or family heirlooms.
  • Create more storage space along a low wall in a bedroom by adding built-in shelves. Go with open shelving to display books and other items, and have a few drawers added to hold smaller items. You can also place things on top of these low shelves.
  • Place a bench in your entryway to give you somewhere to take off your shoes and store them neatly.Hang hooks above the bench to hold coats, hats and purses. For even more storage space, buy a bench that has a drawer below the seating space.
You can add supplemental storage units to almost every area of a home, so keep that in mind when searching for your next house.
