A backyard court is a great way to encourage family recreation and fitness. But, does it add property value to the home?
Many say yes. For buyers with children, it can be very attractive, especially if the yard's landscaping is designed appropriately to enhance it.
For those with expansive backyards, a Sport Court offers another benefit--less grass. Reduce water usage and lawn maintenance by replacing some of that grass with a court surface. It is eco-friendly and fun friendly.
Having a backyard court for basketball, tennis or multi-sport purposes can make your home THE gathering place for your children and their friends. For many parents, this is a benefit that is invaluable. Knowing that kids are safe and engaged in healthy activities offers a peace of mind that is priceless.
But it isn't just families that appreciate the value of a backyard court. There are many adult sports and fitness enthusiasts who consider a private backyard court a real bonus. You may know someone would prefer to live with a ball in their hands at all times. For those people, a home with a private court is worth a premium price.
Of course, not everyone wants a backyard court. Not everyone wants a swimming pool, a man cave, or even lots of bathrooms. A backyard Sport Court can make a property stand out, though. And, experts say that a well-maintained Sport Court in a well-groomed backyard can increase a home's property value from $10,000 - $20,000.
