Elevated home upgrade ideas for luxury living

Last updated on November 3rd, 2024

Brits spend a lot of time in their homes, so it makes sense to ensure it is the perfect environment for you. Making upgrades within your home has a lot of benefits. Not only will you feel the benefits in your personal life, but if you ever do want to sell then you will have added value.

Here are some ideas to help you elevate your home for luxurious living.

Smart home integration for seamless living

Smart home systems are growing increasingly popular. The software included allows you to remotely control different features such as lighting, heating and security. Long gone are the days when you need to pop back home to make sure you switched the bathroom light off!

These systems seamlessly integrate themselves within your home, meaning there are no large, clunky fittings and control panels. Most can be controlled by an app on your phone.

Opulent interior enhancements

There are smaller changes you can implement to make your home feel more luxurious. In the bathroom, for example, change your existing fixtures and fittings for black matte ones. Waterfall showerheads are a great purchase too, helping to wash away the stresses of the day.

Kitchens can have the same treatment. Simply repainting the existing cabinet doors can change the whole scheme of the space. Alternatively, you can get vinyl stickers which are designed to adhere to wooden doors for a more unique feel.

Exquisite exterior upgrades

The outside of your home should be a welcoming sight after a long day, so make sure you consider how the exterior looks.

If you have some green space, make sure it is kept tidy and looked after. Back gardens can be upgraded with outdoor lighting, intentional seating areas and water features to create a zen space.

For homeowners who want to go all out, why not invest in a hot tub? These are great for relaxing in the evenings and stargazing.

Technological and sustainable innovations

When you think about your home, your thoughts may turn to living there in the future. If you have the funds consider investing in renewable energy features such as solar panels. Although this is a large payout, you can sell unused electricity back to the National Grid.

Sustainable upgrades don’t need to be as large as solar panels. Installing a top-of-the-range, high-efficiency combi boiler can reduce any wasted energy and save you money in the long run.

Unique spaces 

Some houses have rooms that are unused or only used for storage and that is a waste. If you have the space, why not repurpose it?

You could spend time designing the ultimate games room for the whole family. This could include a pool table, games consoles and even a projector for movie nights. Not only will this enhance family life, but it will be a huge draw for prospective buyers.
