While a new coat of paint is guaranteed to spruce up your home, sometimes it’s just not enough to turn that old ranch or Cape into something you’d see on HGTV. You need bigger and splashier upgrades, dream-house touches that will forever transform your home. Here are four ways to make your home more luxurious.

Add a Touch of Tile

A little tile goes a long way. Whether it’s a subway tile backsplash in the kitchen or colorful, Southwest-influenced mosaic work in the bathroom, tile can make any room feel luxurious, transforming a plain space into a signature location. While tile patterns like chevron and herringbone are timeless, there are styles for every taste. More importantly, adding a touch of tile can be a DIY weekend project.

Add Resort-like Amenities

While covered tennis courts or a home movie theater might not be in the budget, amenities like a wine room or swimming pool are more practical. Pool construction will make your home feel like a swanky, five star resort. Add a red felt pool table and game room and, well, now you have an all-inclusive resort.

Let There Be Light

Adding or upgrading lamps and light fixtures is an easy way to make your home more luxurious. If sustainable renovations are your thing, consider incorporating LEDs; these types of lights work best with track and recessed lighting. Another sustainable option is a sun tunnel. Similar to a skylight, sun tunnels are the newest trend in natural lighting. In addition, consider installing dimmers. Dimmers will enable you to control the ambiance of your home. And don’t shy away from a big, beautify light fixture. A chandelier has serious wow factor.

Furniture and Décor

From sleek and modern to distressed and rustic, there are all types of ways to dress up your home so that it looks luxurious. Make sure that the furniture and décor match. In other words, don’t pair Mid-Century furniture with those 1970s beaded lamps that you can’t seem to part with. Moreover, you don’t need to spend a fortune on furniture and décor to make your home look luxurious. If you’re fond of the vintage look, consider reclaimed furniture. Upcycling is one of the hottest trends in home décor.

Diversity is the first step towards luxury. Whether big or small, renovations and upgrades can turn your home into a dream home.
