If you have reached the pinnacle in your career and are confident enough to spend for the finer things in life, then a luxury home with all the trappings of grandeur is what you deserve.
No two luxury homes are the same, however. The difference lies in the type of features one will see here. So, here are some of the features unique to the most upscale modern luxury homes that you will encounter:
Indoor pool
Swimming pools are quite common in many upscale homes and serve not only as a breather from the day’s heat but also as a cool venue for outdoor parties. Indoor pools, however, are less common but make a strong statement on a luxury homeowner’s capacity for living large. They’re usually the centerpieces in home spas or are stand-alone features near or in common areas of the house.
Home gym
Home gyms were already popular among the upscale folk way before the pandemic struck. More so now with this health threat still looming above everyone’s heads. Why go to the gym when the gym has come to you, right? It makes a lot of sense to keep things within one’s periphery, especially when it comes to health and fitness. You can pump iron or maximize your endurance within the confines of your own luxury home.
Wine cellar
Oenophiles are bound to keep themselves and fellow wine connoisseurs happy when they have a dedicated storage place within their home (usually their basement) for their preferred spirits. A wine cellar not only keeps wine in perfect condition, given the regulated climate conditions here but also serves as a showcase of rare and finely aged wines that the homeowner may have accumulated over the years.
Huge common rooms
One distinguishing factor of a luxury home is the presence of massive common rooms where the family can converge, bond, or engage in recreational activities. Given the expansive space, family members have enough elbow room to move around or even engage in physical play here.
- The living room is a common area that allows not just interaction with family members but also with guests. Most luxury homes apply an open floor plan that basically opens up the kitchen and creates a seamless flow from it to the living room. With this liberating concept, guests are free to move around and mingle with family members from the living room up to the kitchen.
- An entertainment center would usually consist of a home theater system complete with speakers and reclining chairs that define comfort. The family can watch high-definition movies with surround sound or simply binge on their favorite Netflix series from here. And what good is a movie without the complementing popcorn and soda that can be well within reach at an in-house refreshments counter?
- The game room allows you to get competitive at the same level as a sports bar or an arcade as this area comes complete with gaming consoles, large TVs, tables and chairs for the standard board games, and even a billiard table with the works. Rest assured, adrenaline levels will be set on high in this room of thrills. An extreme addition would be a bowling alley to resume bowling nights with friends and family.
