In a buyer's market doing everything you possibly can to give your house the edge over the competition could mean the difference between selling or not.
Sarah Quilliam, head of product design for Hillarys suggests using roller blinds to help give your home that all important kerb appeal.
"Windows are often the first thing you notice when you look at a house and if the window dressings are untidy and haphazard it can give a messy first impression," says Sarah. "Roller blinds, all positioned at the same level, will give a clean and uniform look to the outside of your home.
"They're also a quick, easy and relatively inexpensive way to update the interior too. You can add a splash of colour to a neutral scheme or keep the look chic and understated with shades of cream, beige or white.
