HOMES with this KITCHEN COUNTERTOP material sell the fastest and it isn’t marble… CAN YOU GUESS what it is?!
According to the numbers, the most attractive kitchen feature is BUTCHER BLOCK!! In fact, homes with those kind of countertops sell in 49 days on average, the fastest of any other design detail! WOW!! What a fantastic way to ELEVATE YOUR KITCHEN, especially if you’re thinking about selling in the next few years🙌🏻
Next in line comes homes with recessed lighting (52 days), a farmhouse sink (53 days), marble countertops (54 days), and granite countertops (55 days).
(Yes, the recessed lighting surprises me too!)
But, it’s not totally shocking that butcher block would top the list😍
It’s a durable surface that doesn’t require a ton of maintenance (though you should condition it regularly, as the wood can dry over time), and it’s much less expensive than stone, especially marble.
Plus, if you follow Jessica Maré of Renovate108’s, she says to avoid chopping on it directly (she reserves a few cutting boards for that), it will stay in tip-top shape even longer✨
The butcher block wood adds warmth to almost any space, no matter your style, so don’t worry if you don’t have the farmhouse vibe in your home!
Thank you for this fantastic article @dominomag and thank you to my fabulous friends for letting me feature their home renovation and beautiful kitchen in progress! They’re way ahead of the BUTCHER BLOCK trend!
