How to Add Luxury to Your Home

Most people want to live in a home that is stylish and hip, but what if you could live in a home that is luxurious too? Not to be confused with owning a mansion, having a posh home is more attainable than most people think and simply involves installing the right features to enhance the architecture of the home, as well as making it convenient for you and your family. So, with that in mind, here are five key ways to add a luxurious theme to your home.

Luxury Home

Stone Flooring

One of the best things that you can add to your home to add a touch of luxury is to have stone flooring fitted. There are a range of different stone flooring options to choose from. 

If you have the budget, then, of course, you can choose marble, but be aware that this comes with a lot of maintenance requirements to keep it looking its best. More commonly used types of stone flooring include granite, slate, Quorn, and even quartzite, so head to mystonefloor.com for advice on the right one for your home and your budget.

Fireplace

If you were to ask a hundred people what they would expect to see in a luxury living room, you would be surprised at how many would say a fireplace. Even if it’s an electric option, a fireplace can provide a real luxury theme to any room. So, if you have the planning permission to do so and your home passes all the safety checks, you can have a fireplace installed. Based on the height of the chimney, as well as the safety on the upper floor of your house, why not have a fireplace installed in the bedroom as well?

Smart Homes

Smart homes are the posh homes of the future, with more people opting to integrate their home devices and automation into one system, which offers convenience as well as luxury. Aim to install smart thermostats, automated lighting, motorized windows, as well as a centralized home control system that can be operated from your smartphone. This will look stylish and, if you’re looking to sell your home, will certainly add a few zeros to its selling price!

Bathroom Spa

Why not aim to create a spa-like retreat in your bathroom? This can allow you to add a real touch of luxury when you need it the most. Many people opt to install a luxurious bath in their home spas, which have a freestanding soaking area or a whirlpool feature. Why not add a rainfall shower head as well as a heated towel rack? You’ll need to ensure that all the stone surfaces are high quality, that your towels are soft and fluffy and that you have some scented candles.

Look To The Garden

It’s safe to say that when it comes to adding a touch of luxury to your home, this doesn’t just apply to the interior. Many people who want to add value to their property as well as create a relaxing space for themselves and their families will look to the outside area. This can include having a patio fitted, as well as having water features, hammocks, seating areas, and lots of flowers to make your garden a cut above all others and create a sense of luxury and calm. Just make sure it’s all kept in check and that it doesn’t become overgrown with weeds!
