15 Install recessed lighting.
Want to make every room in your home look brighter, more beautiful, and more expensive? The answer is simple: recessed lighting.
“Depending on the electrician, and the complexity of the wiring, a single recessed light can cost between $150 to $250, installed. If money is tight, I would recommend focusing on entertaining and living spaces first, before bedrooms. Living rooms should have 4 recessed lights, hallways and kitchens should have a few too,” suggests Brian Dougherty, Managing Partner at Robert Paul Properties, in Boston. He also recommends adding dimmer switches for a customizable effect.
