Outdoor projects can help boost a home\u2019s value by up to 10 percent, according to a new realtor.com\u00ae report. Outdoor showers, barbecue stations, entertainment pools, and fire-pits are the top projects that realtor.com\u00ae researchers found with the biggest potential increases to a home\u2019s price.<\/p>\n

For its research, realtor.com\u00ae analyzed listings at its site for summer-related outdoor features in single-family homes listed for $150,000 or more.<\/p>\n

An outdoor shower offers the biggest return on investment, according to realtor.com\u00ae\u2019s research. Researchers found that homes with outside bathing areas had a 97 percent price-per-square-foot premium. They speculate that such a feature may be appealing since it\u2019s usually found in homes that are near a beach or an expensive property with other luxury amenities.<\/p>\n

Researchers also found that homes with barbecue stations are 26 percent more expensive than those without. In Utah, homes with barbecue stations tend to be listed for 58 percent more per square foot than other homes in the state.<\/p>\n

Also, entertainment pools\u2014with enough space around them for others to lounge\u2014could give a home a 26 percent increase in its value. In New York state, homes with such entertainment pools were 224 percent pricier per square foot than those without.<\/p>\n

Fire-pits and backyard fireplaces are also proving to be a hot way for homeowners to boost their home prices. Homes with fire-pits or backyard fireplaces had a 25 percent premium, according to researchers.<\/p>\n

\u201cOutdoor features can give a home a special quality in the market,\u201d says Javier Vivas, realtor.com\u00ae\u2019s director of economic research. \u201cAnd anytime you have a unique feature, it can bolster the prospective value of a home.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
