Did you know the average length of homeownership is 8 years, and slowly increasing? In fact, the average person will own at least 3 houses in their lifetime. The consequences of the booming housing market we had the past few years have brought rising home prices, high mortgage rates and inventory shortages. As a result, buying and selling began to slow, increasing the average length of homeownership. Real estate experts recommend living in a house for at least 5-7 years because a home will typically appreciate enough after 5 years to recoup financially, and you can avoid capital gains tax on some of the profit if you reside in the home long enough.

An open-concept with high ceilings adds grandeur and luxurious patina to a home, but it can also make it feel, but they can also make it feel cold and even too stately. To strike the perfect balance, here are 3 ways to help bring your ceilings to new heights while still maintaining a warm and cozy home.

1) Consider a design twist - To break up a large wall, combine various types of artistic & decorative elements. Try combining straight lines & organic shapes.

2) Provide more structure - When done correctly, exposed trusses add architectural significance to your existing structure. Choose beams or arches to complement the existing structure of your home.

3) Go dark - Ceilings that are darkly painted or made of a dark-colored material reduce the perceived distance to the floor, making a room feel less oppressive.

High ceilings are an appealing feature that can even increase the value of your home. Let me know your thoughts in the comments!
