Everyone has a dream home in mind – a fantastical ideal that they hope to, one day, turn into a reality. And every one of these homes is different, because everyone has different tastes, wants and needs. Not everyone would want a three-story library, or a garage big enough for fifteen cars, but there are some things that most people would agree should be part of a luxury home.
Luxury Swimming Pool
Who doesn’t want a swimming pool? Either in a pool house or outdoors – depending on where you choose to live. A good sized pool, complete with jacuzzi, would be ideal for relaxing, exercising and enjoying a gorgeous view. Building a pool does mean hiding the needed water pumps and filters – but a luxury home would have that sorted with a discreet maintenance hut or tucked behind carefully placed foliage.
View
Overlooking the city, a forest, a lake or the sea – a great view can make a place look even more beautiful than it already is. Being able to wake up in the morning and look across an amazing vista that fills you with wonder and inspiration every day.
Cinema Room
Everyone loves a good movie night, and how better a way to spend it than in a purpose-built cinema in your room. With no popcorn-crumbs and sticky floors, no lumpy, too-small chairs and no overpriced snacks, your evening will be so much nicer than going out to the actual cinema.
Games Room
Video games, pool, drinking games – whatever your preference is, having a games room can be so much fun to have. It can be for personal use or the focus room for house parties. Fill it with retro games, all the best console games, or a mix of the two.
Sauna
A sauna is the height of luxury – it’s a fantastic way to sweat out the stresses, the aches and pains of everyday life. A well-built sauna can be enriched with essential oils to make the experience even more relaxing.
Gym
Why go to a gym and sweat in front of complete strangers, touching where other, sweating hands have been, when you can have a high-tech, pristine gym in your home? Set up exactly how you want it, with the equipment you want in there. If you want to do pole fitness, it’s covered, if you want a dance studio – sorted.

Study
This can easily be replaced with the three-story library we mentioned earlier, or even in addition to if you wanted. But a place where you can get away to work or study, or even just leisurely scroll through Facebook for hours.
