Garden Furniture Designs ‘A Great investment’

April 28, 2009 - PRLog -- With the property market struggling amidst the black cloud that is the credit crunch, it seems that by renovating your garden and investing in garden furniture, you can help to sway that ‘on the fence’ investor, as Penny Wright from Riverside Garden Centre outlines, now is the time to take your sales patter outside.

Long have property experts hailed the aesthetic appearance of a property as the reason for making a sale, but in recent times it seems that renovating your garden space with artistic yet welcoming planting and highlighting a patios potential with stylish garden furniture really is the way to sell that property in 2009.

Penny Wright, Manager of Riverside, who offer everything from barbeques to garden supplies, said, “Home owners often forget that the garden is part of the house and leave it to go into disrepair.  So much attention is paid to impress buyers when they visit a property, which can include adding hanging baskets to the front of the property or painting the outside, but investing in garden furniture is just as important.”

After weeding, mowing the lawn, adding complementary planting and removing clutter from the garden areas, special attention should be paid to any patio spaces, to highlight their potential and to enable the buyer to visualize themselves there over the summer months, entertaining guests or having a barbeque. The easiest way to achieve this is by adding garden furniture, outdoor lighting or even garden lamps, to create the perfect ambiance.

Mrs. Wright, from the firm who specialize in barbecue equipment and garden tools, added, “Despite the current economic woes, the trend for high quality garden furniture remains stable and at Riverside Garden Centre, we are embarking upon the launch of our unique designs direct from renowned designers such as, Harbo, Alexander Rose, Nova and Westminster, to reflect demand.”

Representing the perfect marriage of luxury and functionality at an affordable price, Harbo offers both outdoor sofas and armchairs, ideal for city living or adding comfort to a pristine garden space this summer.  For those seeking to re create a country cottage garden this summer, the Alexander Rose collection is undoubtedly the ideal companion.  Combining traditional design with ethical material sourcing and FSC certified wood, the Alexander Rose collection boasts some of the most luxurious designs currently available on the market.

The Westminster range, on the other hand represents elegance and style, marrying both sophisticated craftsmanship with the highest-grade materials.  These ranges are both ideal for creating that ‘wow’ factor and selling that home that previously lacked a beautiful garden space- after all once it has been sold you can always take it with you and enjoy in your next home!
