Default bathroom renovations and house value

Our bathroom is really rubbish and we're just about to spend a stupid
amount of money on doing it up; around £10,000. Any ideas on how much
this would actually add in value to a house?


10K?? You're kidding! Are we talking gold-plated taps a la Sadaam
Hussein, or Dolphin?

It's impossible to give you an answer without knowing more info about
your home/location etc - is it a 25K terrace in S****horpe or a 5m
mansion in Surrey? The answers might be a bit different in those scenarios.

On average, yes a good bathroom adds value, but I really can't see you
recouping that expenditure on an average house.
