Top 10 Things Every Woman Needs at Home

1. Fresh Foliage

The benefits of contact with the natural world are well-documented, including aiding concentration and reducing stress. Green plants clean the air and boost oxygen indoors, as well as giving your luxury home a fresh and vibrant feel. It’s even been theorized that having plants in your bedroom can help you sleep better at night.Some good plants to think about and can keep up with any lifestyle are the Montsera and the Snake plant. The Monstera is easy to care for and its natural design is perfect for any place in the home. A snake plant not only looks wonderful but also takes in carbon monoxide and transforms it into oxygen even during the night. Making sure every woman can have a good night’s rest.

2. Inspiring Artworks

Whether you go hunting at antique auctions, modern galleries, or even open-air markets, art is an investment you’ll never regret. The first piece of art was purchasing your home, along with the investment of having the best real estate agent to guide you and meet your expectations. Now if you’re buying something specifically for your home, think about the dimensions of your space and choose something that will draw the eye without overpowering the room. 

3. Bathroom Spa

Upgrade your daily ablutions by transforming your bathroom into your very own home spa. What says a million-dollar home more than a bathroom spa? Invest in massaging showers with head-to-toe water jets, a deep-soak bath, underfloor heating, towel warmers, and of course, a fluffy white dressing gown, and you’ll never want to leave. 

4. Dressing Table

Whether your dressing table stores antique bottles of perfume, a MacBook Air, or both, it’s important to have a space that’s all yours where you can prepare for the day. Period dressing tables have definitely become a collector’s item. This classic piece is something that needs to be treasured with enough space in your home, a detail you should not miss telling your real estate agent to search for before you say yes to a house. Remember, you can’t go wrong with a timeless mahogany table and triple mirrors that allow you to check every hair is in place before taking on the day ahead.

5. Bookshelves

An ideal way to show off your personality and interests, you can choose from classic wooden bookcases and quirky modern asymmetric shelves to make your library a design statement and storage space all in one. The smallest of details make the biggest impact.

6. Comfortable Pillows and Throws

Make your sofa a welcoming place for all your friends and family with luxurious plush cushions and pillows. Pick out colorful cashmere throws to keep you warm on chilly winter evenings.

7. A Practical Kitchen

Throw out gadgets you’ve never unpacked, and invest in high-quality pots, pans, and crockery to make dining a delight from start to finish. Make sure the only gadgets on display are ones you use on a regular basis, like smoothie-makers or steamers. 

8. Family Antiques

If you inherit a historic grandfather clock, set of china, or crystal decanters, ensure they’re prominently displayed and you’ll have an immediate talking point with which to engage your guests. 

9. Home Exercise Equipment

Staying fit and healthy should be as simple as possible. Having exercise equipment and a studio space at home allows you to plan your workouts around a busy lifestyle. Finishing a workout is challenging as it is, and finding a home that meets your space standards can be more of a journey. Good thing local real estate agents can take that off your shoulders. So just position your treadmill or exercise bike in front of the television, and you’ll have no excuse for missing a session. 

10. Dressing Room

A well-organized and spacious walk-in wardrobe doesn’t just provide storage for your clothes; it’s an area dedicated to celebrating fashion and putting together ensembles that make you feel fabulous. Full-length double mirrors let you check that your outfits look as good from the back as they do from the front, and can make your room appear larger. The dressing room for every woman is a dream and it’s important to search for residential properties that already have what you are looking for.
