Luxury Features in Today’s Ultimate Southlake Estate Home – Part 2
Below are the final five sought-after amenities and features for Southlake and Colleyville Luxury Home Buyers
- Your Personal Spa Retreat and Gym – No longer just a remote room filled with a treadmill, bright lights and mirrors on one wall, today’s well-appointed luxury home gyms and spas are far more sophisticated. No doubt these spa-like amenities have undergone an extreme makeover. The luxury homeowner now demands their home epitomize a complete health and wellness center. Resort-style amenities include steam and message rooms along with rooms dedicated for a Yoga and/or Pilates studio. Gone are outdated hot tubs for static relaxation. Active luxury homeowners demand indoor lap pools and half court basketball gyms to remain physically fit.
- Concierge services – No longer restricted to condo-hotels and condominium owners, concierge services are a reality for today’s luxury homeowner. Builders and developers are aligning their resources to incorporate the growing demand for onsite concierge services. From providing in-home chefs to booking dinner reservations, concierge services offer the luxury homeowner time saving services like picking up your dry cleaning or purchasing opera tickets.
- Home Theaters – A home theater or media room remains a fixture for must-have luxury home amenities. However, today’s home
theater far surpasses those of the most sophisticated local public theater. Equipped with theater-size screens, these light-controlled venues typically offer 6.1 digital surround sound, Crestron A/V Controls along with the latest high-tech gadgets to entertain. Stocked with plush reclining seats and easy to access fully-stocked refreshment centers, today’s media room can easily accommodate larger groups of family and friends.
- Home elevators – Accessibility to all areas of your luxury is a must. Particularly if the residents are more mature. Plus – as lot sizes in our area diminish, the need for vertical construction will be a priority. Luxury homes equipped with elevators are becoming a matter of convenience as well as necessity for the typical Southlake or Colleyville luxury home buyer.
- Outdoor Living Spaces – Another must have feature for luxury homes is outdoor living spaces decked with all manner of amenities. Offering luxury buyers comfortable amenities like a fireplace, ceiling fans, wired surround sound, flat panel TV and built in appliances such as gas grill and refrigerator are the norm in our area.
