Popular Home Customizations
Are you building a new house? Whether it’s the first home of your own, the next step for an expanding family or a space to start your next chapter as empty-nesters, there’s nothing like creating a custom home to suit your unique needs, style and space preferences. However, designing your own house can also be a big undertaking, and you might not know where to start.
Whether you’re looking for a unique way to add interesting features to your new home, hoping to incorporate aspects that will increase its value or seeking custom feature inspiration to personalize your pre-priced design plan, here are some popular home customizations to consider.
Built-In Shelves
Storage space is an important aspect of any home. When you rent or buy an already-built home, you have limited storage options — but when you’re designing your own, you can incorporate the storage space you desire in the way that works for you. Built-in storage shelves and cabinets offer an optimal way to maximize your space and make use of your customized design. Built-in shelves can also be useful for aesthetic appeal and add character to your home. Display your books, awards and home decor items in style on your unique shelf wall.
Enhanced Kitchen Features
A fully equipped kitchen is a key aspect of making your new house a home — and that means choosing your kitchen features and amenities based on your needs and style. For a modern, luxurious kitchen, you might decide to incorporate a brick oven and bar area. For a homey, cozy kitchen space, you might opt for a kitchen island and a breakfast nook. Installing the appliances you’ve always dreamed of completes your kitchen vision.
Outdoor Living Areas
Adding a built-in outdoor living space is a unique way to make your new home your own. Whether you want a covered porch area you can use as an additional living room or an outdoor kitchen space you can take advantage of for entertaining, a fully equipped outdoor room offers a modern, unique experience to make your home special.
Ensuite Bathrooms
When you want your home to offer a luxurious, personalized feel, think about adding a master bathroom space. Connected to the master bedroom for convenience and privacy, an ensuite bathroom can be anything you imagine — a cozy, private space, a spacious, comfortable area to get ready or a luxurious spa room equipped with enhanced bath and shower features. Don’t forget to choose the finish materials, flooring and features to match your style and make you feel relaxed and confident in your bathroom space.
Home Offices
Whether you work from home full-time or need a private space to retreat to for some extra work outside the office, planning to build a home office into your new residence is a smart idea in the modern world. As a space you can retreat to when you need to focus, this room can be more than an office for your career — it can also be a quiet space to pay the bills, keep important records, organize books or designate as a computer usage and printing station for the whole family.
Additional Rooms
When you want your new house to feel especially like home, remember that building in a special additional room like a game room, movie room, playroom or wine room is a wonderful way to add a personalized touch. As part of your own design, your customized room will be a special place to relax, entertain or spend some quality time with your family.
