We’ve all seen them: beautiful homes with custom finishes, built-ins, gorgeous chef’s kitchens – they’re the ultimate dream for any homeowner. While a custom-built home might be outside your budget, this is where builder-grade, or cookie-cutter houses, come in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Over the years, cookie-cutter houses have gained a reputation for being boring or lacking originality. But that\u2019s far from the truth. By thinking of a cookie-cutter home as a blank canvas, the design possibilities are endless. We’ll go over what cookie-cutter houses are as well as simple budget-friendly projects you can do to personalize them. Let’s get started.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"identical<\/h2>\n

What are cookie-cutter houses?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Have you driven around a neighborhood and felt like you’ve passed by the same row of houses twice? You’re not experiencing a sense of deja vu. If you live in the United States or Canada, chances are you’re familiar with the image of a suburban neighborhood with identical houses spaced evenly apart with manicured lawns and white picket fences.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These housing developments are known as tract housing or cookie-cutter houses. Homes are built on a tract (area) of land, subdivided into individual lots. While there might be slight variations in the floor plan, materials, or features to accommodate varying budgets, the homes look nearly identical from the outside. Hence the name cookie-cutter houses.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because of their affordability, you can find cookie-cutter houses pretty much everywhere on the\u00a0<\/span>housing market<\/span><\/a>. <\/span>However, just because you bought a cookie-cutter home doesn’t mean you can’t personalize it. <\/span>We reached out to experts from <\/span>Las Vegas, NV<\/span><\/a>, to\u00a0<\/span>Buffalo, NY<\/span><\/a>, for their ideas to make your home stand out and create a one-of-a-kind space. Here\u2019s what they had to say.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to make a cookie-cutter house look unique\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"upgrade<\/h3>\n

Update a cookie-cutter home with a fresh coat of paint<\/span><\/h3>\n

1. Take color inspiration from nature<\/b>
\nWhen choosing a paint color for your home, take inspiration from the natural features in your geographical region. Homes in desert areas look stunning in shades of brown, such as terra cotta or beige, while homes with an ocean view tend to shine in dramatic blues or greens. Also, consider the color palette in the landscaping immediately around your home to help create the perfect contrasting color combinations for trim and other details. –<\/span>ACP Painting, LLC<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

2. Keep it simple<\/b>
\nSkip the frames and paint directly on your walls with simple designs, patterns, and colors. It’s an easy way to make a cookie-cutter house uniquely yours, and you can always paint over it when you’re ready for a change. –<\/span>Anne Harris Studio<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

3. Personalize the front door<\/b>
\nMy most dramatic change when customizing a cookie-cutter home is updating the front door’s paint color. With some creativity and some color testing, you can find that one bold color that says “hey, look at me, I’m different.” –<\/span>Basurto Painting<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h3>\n

Declutter visible surfaces<\/span><\/h3>\n

4. Edit what you have<\/b>
\nMy number one tip for customizing cookie-cutter houses is to declutter and create “hidden” storage by using baskets to store small items. Keep the space organized, and your room will instantly have an elevated look. Then treat your walls and windows, add moulding, create an accent wall, and add beautiful curtains to add interest to the space. Use wooden elements, plants, and layers with textile to make it warm and cozy. –<\/span>Petite Avenue Interiors<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h3>\n

Elevate moulding and millwork<\/span><\/h3>\n

5. Upgrade trimwork with a bold paint color<\/b>
\nPaint is the easiest (and most impactful) way to elevate your space. It can highlight architectural detail or even create the illusion of an architectural aesthetic. Create intentional contrasts by painting trim, staircases, ceilings, etc. Playing with color in this way can dramatically change the depth and light of a room.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Try painting the bottom half of your wall \u2014 this has all the benefits of bold color without overwhelming your space. A two-toned wall gives you the freedom to contrast something playful, like Gin Blossoms, with something classic, like Supermoon. Alternatively, paint an accent wall to create a focal point in the space with a neutral classic such as Mojave Gathering. – Natalie Ebel, co-founder of <\/span>Backdrop<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

6. Create a custom look with crown moulding\u00a0<\/b>
\nOne way to give a bland, cookie-cutter home a more custom look is by adding crown moulding and\/or swapping out your baseboards, casings, and trim. It’s a detail that most don’t think about but significantly impacts the room’s appearance. Whether it’s adding crown moulding, changing the style of the existing trim, or painting it another color, it’s sure to add some punch and create a more polished look. –<\/span>MAKS Design Studio<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

7. Install wood trims to interior windows<\/b>
\nOne way to make your cookie-cutter house stand out from the rest without breaking the bank is by adding wood trims around all your interior windows to give it a special touch. Paint all the wood accents with a satin sheen with your favorite color, or stain the wood for protection. –<\/span>1st Painting Contractors<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

8. Add interest by painting cabinets, trims, and doors<\/b>
\nConsider painting wood accents in your home, such as cabinets, trim, and doors. These details can be highlighted using different paint colors or finishes and give your cookie-cutter home a unique look. –<\/span>Andy’s Painting, Inc.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

9. Create a showstopping foyer by updating the stairs<\/b>
\nBuilders will often install basic wooden railings and banisters on the staircases of new homes. We like to customize these components with different color combinations, glossy black railings, and newel posts with white balusters. There’s an infinite amount of color combinations with this process to give any foyer an eye-popping accent, and it’s a popular upgrade right now. –<\/span>All Touch Power Wash & Paint<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"upgrade<\/h3>\n

Glam up the living room<\/span><\/h3>\n

10. Create a custom look by swapping out builder-grade finishes<\/strong>
\nMy main focus when upgrading cookie-cutter houses is the living room. It\u2019s surprising how transforming the ceiling, wall, and floor can change the overall ambiance. Changing a ceiling from a POP design to an ultra-glossy reflective finish, a darker wall color to a lighter tone, and banal flooring to wooden flooring can be the trick to personalize a cookie-cutter house. –<\/span>Interiors By Mccoy<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h3>\n

Upgrade hardware and finishes<\/span><\/h3>\n

11. Update existing doorknobs and cabinet hardware<\/strong>
\nOne of my favorite budget-friendly ways to personalize cookie-cutter houses is to upgrade doorknobs and cabinet hardware. It makes such a difference in your space, and it’s easy to do on your own without needing the services of a professional. –<\/span>Interiors by Ahuva<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

12. Think outside the box when revamping a cookie-cutter house<\/b>
\nAdd some personal hardware to take away the builder’s special and make each set of cabinets or doors your own. And don’t forget that paint is the cheapest way to make the biggest impact. You can paint anything – walls, baseboards, trim, and cabinets, in the kitchen, bathroom, just about anywhere. –<\/span>City & Shiplap<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h3>\n

Add dimension to a cookie-cutter house with lighting<\/span><\/h3>\n

13. Give your home a new look with great lighting\u00a0<\/strong>
\nMy number one tip for updating a cookie-cutter house would be the lighting. Lighting can take a space from mediocre to stunning. –<\/span>Hearth To Home Interior Styling<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

14. Focus on sourcing stylish lighting<\/strong>
\nThere are so many beautiful and unique lighting fixtures on the market right now. It’s an easy and quick way to make an impact on your home while also adding your style to it. You can take it one step further and paint or wallpaper the ceiling to make your new statement fixture pop! –<\/span>Lily June Home<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

Add finishing touches with decor<\/span><\/h3>\n

15. Upgrade your textiles and add plenty of texture<\/b>
\nDesigning a dream space in your cookie-cutter home is about incorporating things that make you feel relaxed. The space should be a reflection of your favorite things. The trick adds texture with materials and fabrics to avoid making your interior feel cold or bland. For example, using textured wallcoverings can add warmth to your room and enrich the space. Pick one to three materials to use consistently throughout your home. Remember, stay true to your taste, because nothing you like will ever go out of fashion. –<\/span>Interiors By Lena<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

16. Embrace wallpaper accent walls<\/b>
\nAccent walls are a great way to add color and interest to a space to set your home apart. If you’re feeling nervous, try grasscloth in a neutral color for a refined pop of texture. –<\/span>Rock My Space<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

17. Don\u2019t forget the little details to pull everything together<\/b>
\nMy number one tip is to focus on upgrading your wall treatments, overhead lighting, and cabinet pulls. Add some dimension to your space with panel moulding, wainscoting, or bold wallpaper, then swap out your overhead lighting for a modern globe chandelier, and complete the look by elevating your cabinet pulls with some matte black pulls. These minor upgrades will instantly add an effortless modern touch to your space. –<\/span>Interiors By Beck<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
