I told my custom builder to skip the fancy mudroom storage and put that $4,000 into better windows instead
Met with three builders near Denver last month who all pushed the same high-end locker benches and cubbies. But my old house taught me natural light matters way more than organizing space nobody actually uses.

Yeah, the "nobody actually uses" part hit home. I put my money into better windows in my last house and it made the whole place feel bigger every single day.

The "felt bigger every single day" line is exactly right. People forget that windows aren't just about looking outside, they change how a room feels. Better windows let in more light and make the space feel open instead of cramped. It's one of those things you notice every time you walk into the room. Most people focus on fancy countertops or new floors when windows give you way more bang for your buck. You made the smart call.
