It’s important to note that the impact of color varies depending on the room. While blue bathrooms contribute to increased prices, blue living rooms appear to have the opposite effect. However, with the exception of the living room, blue emerges as an appealing color throughout the house. Blue kitchens and bathrooms not only enhance appeal but also lead to higher sales prices. This positive effect extends to bedrooms and dining rooms as well. It’s worth mentioning that specific shades matter, such as light cerulean, slate blue, cadet blue, and periwinkle in the bathroom. Not just any blue will do.

While every color choice is ultimately a personal one, and the study shouldn’t dictate your remodel color schemes, it underscores the importance of considering resale value in your planning. Kitchen and bathroom remodels can be substantial investments, even with cost-saving measures such as choosing semi-custom cabinets. Ensuring a return on this investment requires making wise color and cabinet choices from the outset.
