Cool Things to Include in a New Home Build

When you choose to build a house, chances are that, you’ll live in it for a lengthy period. Therefore, it is wise to make the house as comfortable as possible. The following are some features you need to consider to achieve this.

Dual Kitchen Workspaces

In case many people will be gathering in your house, consider building dual workspaces in the kitchen, complete with sinks and garbage cans. This will keep people away from your space while you’re working. 

Independently Controlled Outdoor outlets

To make celebrations like Christmas get to another level, build your home with outdoor receptacles beneath the eaves and other locations within your house. This avoids tangled and messy extension cords. It makes wiring easy such that you can switch lights on and off as you like especially when connected to a smart home automation system.

On-demand Water Heater

This ensures that the shower will never run cold again. An on-demand water heater helps to save space and energy as you only heat water when you need it. During those evenings when you come home tired, you can take long, luxurious showers without running out of hot water.

A Bathing Station for the Dog

Most pet owners are passionate about their pets and when building a new home, consider including some extras for the dog. A good suggestion is putting the dog’s bath in the garage. This makes it easy for the Fido to take that needed bath after a hike.

Custom Shelving

There is no better time to get that custom shelving you always needed, than when constructing your new house. This can serve as a focal point for a room, such as bookshelves arranged around an archway. It can also be a multimedia unit in the living room which can have a lot of utility.

Heated Floors

These have had increased popularity lately and features warming coils that run under the floorboards. They are controlled with a switch and add to the luxury of the house. They become more functional especially in winter or in cooler climates where the need for warmth is paramount.

Building a new home means including all the necessary features. But if you want to get extra comfort, then the above features will serve you right.
