With the kids off to college, now is the perfect time to revamp your home and create a space that reflects your lifestyle and interests. Whether you’re in a one-level kitchen or a townhouse, consider updating areas like the kitchen or bathrooms to suit your needs. While your children may come to visit, this is your chance to focus on making your home more comfortable and personal. Design your new space to support productivity, relaxation, creativity, or health – enhancing your daily happiness and fulfillment.
Guest Room
Turn your spare bedroom into a modern, functional guest space with a Murphy bed, built-in storage, and a versatile nightstand. Prioritize a quality bed with luxurious bedding, a place to hang clothes, and a nightstand with a reading lamp and charging station. Finish with a comfortable chair or bench for added comfort.
Home Office
Empty nesters can create a modern, stylish home office with light, bright walls, luxurious rugs, and sleek, built-in storage. Ensure the space accommodates a desk, storage, and an armchair or two for comfort. Replace the bedroom door with glass French doors to visually open up the room, and convert the closet into functional shelving for added organization.
Luxury Walk-In Closet
Turn your newfound space into a luxurious walk-in closet and dressing room. Add an island or a plush ottoman in the center if the room allows, creating both functionality and style. This transforms four empty walls into a personalized, organized retreat where you can store, display, and enjoy your wardrobe in comfort.
Room Expansion
If your empty room is adjacent to a kitchen or bathroom, consider expanding and remodeling to enhance both style and functionality. This extra space can be used to create a more spacious layout or add valuable features like extra cabinetry or counter space. Depending on the room’s location, the renovation can range from a simple update to a more extensive project that fully maximizes the added space.
Home Gym or Yoga Studio
Transform your spare bedroom into a sleek home gym or peaceful yoga studio. Install a mirrored wall and wood or luxury vinyl plank flooring for a polished, functional look, leaving plenty of space for stretching and movement. Equip the room with workout gear, or, if yoga and meditation are your focus, all you need is a mat, cushions, and perhaps incense or sound bowls for a calming atmosphere. Add a cozy area to relax, read, or sip a beverage between sessions.
