Luxurious Rooms You Can Add to Your Custom Home Design
Across the United States, the average size of a single-family home is just over 2,200 square feet. Most homes we build are larger than 7,000 square feet. So, what exactly are you supposed to do with the extra space? More and larger bedrooms, extra bathrooms and powder rooms throughout the home, and spacious, open living rooms are certainly one way to enjoy the extra square footage of a luxury home. However, adding different types of luxurious rooms is a great way to customize your home and make it uniquely your own.
Here at Conrado Home Builders, we have decades of experience helping our clients build the most beautiful, elegant, extraordinary, and lavish custom homes in Silicon Valley and on the San Francisco Peninsula. Financial titans, Silicon Valley leaders, and professionals from all walks of life choose Conrado for our reputation of superior customer service, unparalleled quality, and transparent operation. Below, we offer a few ideas for different luxurious rooms that you can add into your custom home.
A Wine Cellar
Creating a cozy home for your precious vintages is one of the biggest luxury additions to any house. A carefully designed wine cellar offers a unique opportunity to safely store your favorite wines. A quality wine cellar will ensure proper temperatures while also keeping humidity consistent to protect the quality of the wine. Other technical considerations for a wine cellar include avoiding direct light, the proper angle to store wines at, and even limiting vibrations.
Besides these technical aspects, a personal wine cellar space can also be turned into an exceptional gathering area. A built-in bar, extra storage, and some customized seating will allow you to host guests in a truly special and unique part of youre home.
Here at Conrado Home Builders, our Founder and Executive Chairman, Paul Conrado, is an accomplished winemaker with thirty years of experience making wine. Conrado Cellars began back in 1993 when a client requested Paul plant a vineyard alongside their Conrado Home. Since then, winemaking has been a passion of Paul’s. He has planted dozens of vineyards on residential properties throughout the Silicon Valley foothills, and won hundreds of medals . Many of those homes also include a personal wine cellar included in the home to ensure the best quality wine storage.
A Media or Theater Room
For people who love going to the movies, building a private home theater will allow you to enjoy the “cinema experience” without ever leaving your home. A special room designed as a mini movie theater will allow you to incorporate stellar surround sound, customized theater seating options, 4K ultra HD visuals, and even the perfect, customized lighting schemes. When you hire Conrado Home Builders, we can also help you determine the most appropriate room shape and layout to give your theater room a personalized touch. We can even help you create a built-in snack bar to host a gathering of friends when showing off your personal home movie theater.
A Home Bar
Enjoying a night out at the bar with some friends is a great way to relax, unwind, and enjoy company. Unfortunately, many bar atmospheres come with uncomfortable seating, horrible music, and noise levels that make it hard to sustain a conversation. What if you could build your own bar at home where you get to determine all of these variables? Building a bar in your home will allow you to decide the type of chairs and bar stools, the best drinks and cocktails to be served, the music playlist, and the décor on the walls. Building a home bar also gives you a perfect excuse to experiment with new cocktail recipes.
Conrado Home Builders can help you design and build a home bar that will be a perfect place to entertain guests. From sourcing the best quality hardwood for bar rails and bar tops to incorporating a customized lighting and sound system for your bar, we can ensure that your home bar is exactly what you have always imagined.
A Yoga, Exercise, or Meditation Studio
Building a yoga, exercise, or meditation studio is a great way to reduce stress levels and find peace and tranquility after a hectic day for people looking to bring a bit of mindfulness to their everyday lives. Your luxury home most likely will have beautiful views of the landscape surrounding your home, and here at Conrado Home Builders, we can help you find the best place to enjoy the best natural lighting and beautiful views for your yoga, exercise, or meditation sessions.
A quality yoga, exercise, or meditation studio should also incorporate discreet storage for your towels, yoga mats, and other important equipment. We can also help you incorporate mood lighting, the best interior plants to help ensure optimum air quality, expertly placed wall mirrors, and more.
A Sauna or Steam Room
Many of our suggestions for the best luxury rooms to be added to a custom home seem to be oriented towards finding ways to relax and unwind, and for good reason. A luxury home needs to be a place where you feel comforted, pampered, completely relaxed, and stress-free. A sauna or steam room, often as an addition to the master bathroom, offers the ultimate experience in relaxation and wellness. A home sauna or steam room can not only help you with those sore muscles and other aches and pains but can also help rid the body of toxins and relieve accumulated stress. Of course, a home sauna or steam room will allow you to enjoy all of these benefits in complete privacy.
Conrado Home Builders can help you design and build the best sauna or steam room for your home. Whether you want a separate sauna room, a steam room connected to the master bathroom, or even a unique outdoor sauna that gives you a “close-to-nature” experience, we can help you bring this desire to life.
The Importance of Finding a Custom Home Builder you can Trust
Of course, what makes a custom home unique, is the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to design a personalized floor plan that incorporates space and area for your interests, hobbies, and preferences. Some people may salivate at the idea of having a personal theater to take your home entertainment to a new level. Others, however, may prefer a full outdoor kitchen and connected living area that make it easy to spend time outside throughout the seasons.
The ideas for luxurious rooms outlined above are meant to help you begin to imagine the different types of spaces that you can incorporate into your future luxury home. Finding the right builder to help bring these ideas to life is an essential part of the process.
Here at Conrado Home Builders, we take seriously our commitment to listening to our client’s ideas for the different types of luxury rooms they would like to add throughout the home. Before we ever lay the first brick or show up with a construction team, we take the pre-construction planning phase seriously. Our job is to work with our clients to create a thorough plan that ensures that every whim, caprice, and fancy of the client is taken into consideration for the final floor plan. Our meticulous pre-construction phase also allows us to take the time to share with our clients the newest developments, products, techniques, and technologies that are available for the unique and luxurious rooms that they would love to incorporate into the final floor plan.
Lastly, the pre-construction relationship that we build with our clients is also fundamental for the building of trust, transparency, and an overall smooth building process. Throughout this phase, we will meet as a team to share our ideas, brainstorm potential ideas for luxurious rooms, and anticipate difficulties before they appear in order to ensure the final floor plan is exactly what you imagined. After months of careful preparation, dialogue, and planning, by the time we actually get to building your home, we’ve essentially already built it in our heads.
