When staging your home, don't forget the man cave.

While an often-overlooked part of home staging, adding a ’men’s only' room to a house can help it to appeal to your buyers.

Adding in a man cave doesn’t have to be expensive. With a few simple tricks, you can easily transform your space into a getaway that your prospective buyers can envision themselves in. Here are some tips to help you create a space in your house that’s sure to impress.

Décor

Décor for the man cave should be fun, functional, and to-the-point. This isn’t the place for elaborate details or soft floral prints! Opt for sports themed art, or garage style details. Leave a few board games, like a high-quality backgammon or chess set sitting around. A neon sign on the wall can help to complete the look. Or opt for a neatly stacked pile of classic books –depending on the style of the room you go with. As when staging any room in the house, less is often more. A few carefully chosen pieces should be more than adequate.
