A luxury home reflects one’s preference for the best things in life – and only you can define what those creature comforts are.
But if you want to know what the majority of luxury homebuyers are looking for in a high-end home, here are six features that top their list:
- Technology
“Okay Google, set the alarm for 6:00 a.m.” “Alexa, guard the house.” These virtual assistants have become standard in most homes. It’s no different when it comes to luxury homes. In a survey conducted by our team of Coldwell Banker Luxury Property Specialists, 81% of homebuyers say that they want home automation. Also popular among homebuyers are smart TVs, kitchen appliances, and security systems.
- Flexible spaces and home offices
With work-from-home arrangements now accepted by many companies, homeowners have realized the value of a multipurpose and multifunctional home. A home office can be soundproofed to keep ambient noises at bay during Zoom meetings or a more formal Skype call with a client. Homeschooled children need to have playrooms rearranged to make learning conducive. And with the family spending more time together for stretches at a time, privacy has become even more important. Aside from bedrooms, a home with areas for individual members to retreat to is a luxury that’s fast becoming a need.
- Open floor plan
Gone are the days when houses had rigid and formal layouts. Open plan layouts are now the norm, even among luxury homeowners who can use it to capture the panoramic beauty of their homes. A split-level home design for example, breaks down barriers with full-length window walls and oversized sliding glass doors for the ultimate in indoor-outdoor living.
- A kitchen or two
The kitchen is always the heart of any home, so why not double the happiness it brings? In addition to an indoor gourmet kitchen with the top-of-the-line appliances, install another kitchen in your backyard patio. Great for family cookouts and casual get-togethers with friends, an outdoor kitchen makes for easy and convenient entertaining.
- Home gyms
Luxury homeowners value their privacy and like to sweat in style. Thus, home gyms are a desirable feature for luxury homebuyers. Personal fitness trainers can be tapped to select the kind of professional-grade equipment that will help homeowners achieve their fitness goals.
