Layered lighting improves home value by adding depth and flexibility to room lighting, enhancing ambiance and function. Using a combination of overhead lights, task lamps, and accent lighting in warm 2700K to 3000K bulbs on dimmers creates welcoming spaces that buyers favor. This lighting approach reduces harsh shadows and highlights architectural features or decor. Swapping a few bulbs and adding dimmers is a low-cost upgrade that transforms the feel of a room, immediately increasing perceived quality and desirability, which translates to higher offers and faster sales.
