With all the bizarre weather we can sometimes experience, the problem of dirt and slush being tracked all over your nice, clean house is a major problem. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we suggest that a mudroom could solve this problem, and many others, too. Before you assume that this does not apply to you, consider what a mudroom is and how some version of it may be helpful to you. Originally, a mudroom was a room or area near the most commonly used entrance It was served as a place to remove snow-covered, wet or muddy clothing and footwear. In a broader sense, it could be any well-designed utility space near the entrance of a home and that is used to organize frequently used gear. For a family, this might be umbrellas, boots, gloves and other wet or muddy clothing. It could also be sports equipment, backpacks, mail, keys or anything family members need to deposit on the way into the house or grab on the way out of the house. It’s important to have a comfortable and convenient bench to sit on while removing or putting on footwear. The bench can fit with the decor of a formal entryway or informal back door. A seat with a hinged top and storage inside can also help reduce clutter. Check out below to see what is currently listed for sale in Autumn Park in February 2016:
