The red room was a train room for a previous owner who was a hobbyist – the floors were painted concrete (and the window trims to match). This room sat in that awkward space between utility and not quite living space between the flooring and odd laundry placement. It was worth installing carpet, and moving the washer/dryer to a different wall. It was absolutely worth painting but we didn’t bother to update any of the ceiling light fixtures. These few changes had a giant ROI because buyers and the appraiser now considered it additional living space on the home vs odd ugly storage.
