New build homes appeal to potential buyers for multiple reasons. They often don’t need the same upkeep as old homes, can be tailored to personal taste and have modern aesthetics.

Installing bifold doors is a great addition to any property. However, they work particularly well in new builds as they add to and reflect the contemporary design. This alone can appeal to a potential buyer, but the benefits don’t stop there.

Bring in natural light

Having lots of natural light in a home is a desirable aspect for many buyers. As well as providing many health advantages such as improving sleep, vision and mood. It can also completely change the look and feel of a space. Whether it’s making a small room appear larger, adding some brightness to dark interiors or simply creating a clean, fresh feeling – the benefits are endless.

There are many features that can maximise the natural light, such as hanging up mirrors, painting walls a light colour and fitting large glass doors.

A recent survey conducted by Vufold revealed that over 30% of the UK public considered the biggest benefit of bifold doors to be the natural light they let in.

Illusion of space

Undoubtedly, an important feature for the majority of homebuyers is having enough space for their family and lifestyle. It isn’t always possible to create a large floor plan when designing a new build – especially if it is in a built-up area. However, bifold doors are a great way to make rooms appear bigger. They can open up two rooms to form one large area and as they fold away to one side, rather than swing open, they take up minimal space.

Outdoor space and views

Gardens are a major selling point, especially in a busy city or town. If you’re new build is lucky enough to be surrounded by brilliant views, it’s important to showcase them.

Installing bifold doors create a smooth transition between indoors and outdoors and wall-to-wall glass doors highlight surrounding scenery. Their sleek appearance ensures that there will be no clunky door frames getting in the way, even when they’re closed.

Rick Collins, director of bi-fold door manufacturers Vufold, said: “Even when glass doors are shut, the owners and guests can still appreciate the garden views from inside the property if it’s too cold to sit outside.”

Added value

Resale value is incredibly important. A new build property will instantly add to the resale value due to it being an up-to-date property. But if a home isn’t suited to people’s needs, it could take a long time to sell and cost more money in the long run. The many advantages of bifold doors, which provide a touch of luxury to a home, can add value to a property

And so much more

Bifold doors have the potential to enhance a new build property’s design due to the premium and trendy aesthetics. As well as the physical appeal, the practical benefits of bringing in floods of natural light and creating the illusion of space will certainly attract potential buyers.
