A luxury home can mean a lot of different things. There is not a particular size or dollar value that must be met to be considered a luxury home. Instead, luxury is determined by the custom features, quality finishes and quality of the build of the home! When planning a custom luxury home, here are some of the most common considerations.
Custom Kitchens
The kitchen is the heart of every home. It is where family and friends gather, meals are prepared, homework is completed and so much more. In a luxury home, this space is designed to work seamlessly with the lifestyle of the person or family who will live in the home. High end appliances, perfectly planned out storage, wine storage, barista stations, open flow for entertaining and stunning, high quality cabinetry are all important parts of planning your dream kitchen!
Eye-catching Features
Stunning features designed for maximum visual impact are another common feature in luxury homes. Grand entrance staircases, indoor water features, custom fireplace features, and large windows with stunning views are just a few examples.
Spa Style Bathrooms for Everyone!
In luxury homes, bathrooms are not only large and luxurious, but they are also plentiful! Including a bathroom for each bedroom along with a spare bathroom and powder room for guests are a common choice when designing a luxury home. This allows each person in the home to have their own private space to relax and unwind at the end of the day, including guests!
Unique Lifestyle Additions
What do you love? What would you like to be able to do from home? Add that to your list! Car enthusiasts may want to have a two level garage with a second level that lifts out of the basement. Movie buffs may want a complete home theater. Bowling lanes, home gyms, custom craft rooms, wine and brewing rooms, your imagination is really the only limit to the list of unique spaces you can add to your luxury home to make it truly perfect for you!
Well-Planned Lighting & Automation
In this electronic era, you’d be hard-pressed to find a new luxury home build that didn’t incorporate advanced lighting and home automation integrated right into the build. This can include anything from security, window coverings or temperature control to automated cleaning features and much more!
