Wallpaper Wonders: Enhancing Investment Properties with the Perfect Patterns

Updated: Oct 9, 2023

Including a few of our favourite designs right now...


Let's talk about the magical power of wallpaper. Seriously, this stuff has the ability to transform a room and set the mood like nothing else!


Imagine a room that feels a bit too big and empty. Well, guess what? You can instantly make it feel warm and cozy by hanging some dark, luxurious wallpaper, or add to a contemporary scheme with a burst of pattern and texture. It's like waving a design wand and making your space more interesting in an instant.



If you're dipping the first toe into wallpaper, a natural pattern or texture is a great go-to that fits with lots of schemes...



A great cost-effective addition to any Japandi/Scandi scheme, with just the right amount of pattern

Another great option as a subtle pattern to add interest without overpowering



If you're not feeling brave enough to dive headfirst into walls of bold wallpaper, why not try framing sections with panelling, using it in just in an alcove, or as a backdrop to shelving as a more subtle touch?


We love this bold feature print to instantly add character to a space


Alcove applications work especially well with wood slat effect paper — and will save you £££ on the real thing!




Now, let's talk about the many advantages of using wallpaper in your property investment. First and foremost, durability is the name of the game. Quality wallpaper can last over 15 years, making it a super cost-effective choice in the long run. In fact, it can even outlast paint by three times! Talk about a wise investment. And here's the best part, most wallpapers are wipe-clean or washable, so you can easily deal with any marks or smudges that may appear during tenancies.


But wait, there's more — variety! While paint offers a wide range of colours, wallpaper takes it to a whole new level. Not only do you get to choose from a stunning array of designs, but you also have a world of textures and effects at your fingertips. Beads, flock, metallic finishes, embossing, you name it! It's like creating a work of art on your walls, meaning less staging later!






This would look great as a feature wall, or go bold on the ceiling like this example!



So, my fellow property investors, let your imagination run wild with wallpaper! It's the ultimate tool for instant style and mood transformation. Say goodbye to dull walls and hello to a world of colours, textures, and design possibilities. Embrace the durability, the variety, and the easy application that wallpaper brings to your property investment. Trust us, it's a game-changer!
