Amenities In Luxury Homes

Posted on: 18 June 2020

Many people desire to enjoy more luxurious accommodations than their current living spaces provide. Although some high-end items can be added to a current space, certain amenities are only available by making structural changes to a dwelling or purchasing a more luxurious property. 

Here are a few amenities that are typically found in luxury homes. 

Automation

Many homebuyers who purchase luxury homes expect extensive automation throughout the property. They often know that many rudimentary tasks around the home, such as changing the atmospheric temperature, locking and unlocking doors, turning lights on and off, and disabling or enabling the alarm system, can be controlled remotely from a smartphone. The property owner can even access the home's automated system from miles away while vacationing or traveling for business. 

The contractor often installs the necessary automation devices during the construction of the home. After purchasing the property, there is little for a buyer to do other than connecting their control device wirelessly to the system. 

Well-Equipped Kitchen

Many nice houses include double ovens and kitchen islands. However, luxurious homes often go several steps further, offering warming drawers, walk-in pantries, and appliances that are restaurant-quality. There may even be specialized refrigeration units that are specifically for cooling wine bottles. Additionally, high-end finishes and elegant countertop materials are expected. 

Some luxury properties even include a second kitchen, either indoors or outside on a patio. Outdoor kitchens may include an area for food preparation, a refrigerator, a gas grill, and comfortable seating for guests. 

Private Pool

Elaborate pools with luxurious features, such as waterfalls, specialized lighting, caves, and fire displays, are often available in high-end properties. These areas become a central feature for outdoor relaxation and entertainment. Thus, the pools are often surrounded by luxurious seating areas and immaculate, inviting landscaping. They also tend to be hidden from the prying eyes of neighbors and other possible onlookers by strategically placed trees, walls, and other privacy features.

In some homes, the pools are housed indoors for complete privacy and may be near a sauna and inground hot tub.

Sports-Related Features

Luxurious homes are also known to accommodate the sporting interests of their owners by including tennis courts, indoor basketball courts, and putting greens. A homeowner can enjoy entertaining activities without leaving the comfort of their home. They can also share their activities with select friends and acquaintances in a private setting.
