5 Must-Haves for Your Custom Luxury Home

May 13, 2023Prestige

Picture this: you arrive home and are greeted by gentle jazz and a cozy ambiance. You head to your wine fridge for a crisp Sauvignon Blanc to enjoy in your spacious soaking tub. It’s a Friday night, and while you’re ready to enjoy the weekend, you don’t feel much like going out.

So, after your bath, you decide to enjoy a movie night while lying back in your leather recliner in your own home theatre. Does this sound like a dream? Well, with the features of a luxury home, this can be your everyday reality.

Continue reading to learn some of the essentials of custom luxury homes.

1. Custom Kitchens to Meet Your Needs

Your kitchen is the heart of your home, so it should blend seamlessly into your life. A custom kitchen accomplishes this by building in spaces that meet your unique needs. For example, if you’re a coffee aficionado, you can design a cafe nook where you enjoy your morning espresso in tranquility.

And if you host a lot or your home features an open layout, you should consider adding a butler’s pantry. These act as a sort of working kitchen; hiding dirty dishes, cooking messes, and wine fridges, while your main kitchen is where the entertainment happens.

2. A Relaxing Spa Style Bathroom

You shouldn’t have to visit a luxury resort to feel the bliss of a spa-like atmosphere. Instead, bring the spa home by designing a custom bathroom, mining your favorite destinations for ideas to incorporate into your own.

Some features might include:

Towel Warmers
Free-standing soaking tub
Waterfall showers
Radiant floor heating
Saunas

Once your wish list is created, hand it off to your luxury home builder and allow them to design you the bathroom of your dreams.

3. Home Theater for At-Home Movie Nights

Once thought of as only appearing in the homes of celebrities or film magnates, it’s now reported that about 80% of custom build clients are now requesting this feature. Some realtors say that these additions can also add value to your home. However, your home theatre must be more than a den with a large-screen tv.

Instead, include these luxury features for a home theater that wows:

High-definition projector and screen
Comfortable, reclinable seating
Ambient Lighting
A stellar sound system

And remember to ensure all seats have a great view of the screen.

4. Bespoke Entryway Built-Ins

Custom luxury homes should have a feature that correlates with every need, and your entryway is no different. Not only is this space the first that greets your guests when they arrive, but it can also make or break your families’ entries and departures. Built-ins answer this need by providing a streamlined place to store odds and ends behind beautiful bespoke cabinetry.

5. Smart Home Technological Upgrades

Smart home upgrades allow you to be the maestro of the orchestra that is your home. These features might include:

Advanced lighting
Remote security controls
Remote climate control
Automated blinds and curtains
Scheduled appliances

Include the upgrades that would make a positive impact on your day-to-day living.
