Access Points

I recently purchased a 

NETGEAR Nighthawk R7350 AC2400 Router: 

I am trying to find out which access points would work best with this router for my home.

How big is your home? 

What are the interior walls made of? 

How many access points do you plan on adding? 

If you were planning on adding access points, why not start with a mesh system so its all one? 

then you can add satellites as needed and have seamless roaming.

it is a little over 5000 square feet.  We have a main floor which is where the router is now.  An upstairs and those see to be getting coverage from the router ok and a basement that is actually getting pretty good coverage except one room in it.  I was thinking about adding an access point upstair and basement for better coverage.

Not a bad choice. Any chance you can return the new router and switch to a mesh system? 

That's the route I'd go for that much area and for seamless roaming.
