"Aesthetics" is the study of beauty; "aesthetic value" is the value of something because it is beautiful. Think cars. A car has value because it gets you from A to B, because it's good on gas, because there is lots of room in the back. But if you value your car because it looks good, that's aesthetic value. A building may serve its function and look like a dump, but some buildings are not only functional but beautiful as well, and are valued for it. You can say the same about practically anything in the world, so you should have no trouble finding examples.
