A new luxury apartment is an attractive piece of real estate, no matter your background or where you are in life. It is a significant step from everyday apartments and condominiums, which are typically built to resemble the same unit.
Luxury condos and apartments differ. They often incorporate unique features and design choices. If you are buying or renting, here are some things to have in a new luxury apartment.
Top-Quality Appliances
New luxury apartments have premium intelligent appliances, such as stoves and ovens, refrigerators, coffee machines, dishwashers, and more.
In-Unit Laundry
An in-unit washer and dryer are must-haves in any apartment, and in a luxury apartment, it's no different. Avoid the laundromat or coin-operated laundry machines.
Accent Lighting
As you will discover, many luxury apartments have more task and accent lighting, such as under-cabinet lighting. Lighting a room, entryway, or hallway can dramatically change the atmosphere to a warm, welcoming feel.
Bidet Attachment
A bidet attachment is easy to purchase for a toilet. There is no reason not to have one in a luxury apartment, as you will use less toilet paper and feel immensely cleaner after a trip.
Monstera Plant
A Monstera plant is a go-to for many apartments. However, luxury apartments are known for large Monsteras, sometimes five, six, or seven feet high. If you're not into a Monstera, try to find another plant style that would suit you.
Home Office
Many of us work remotely and require a comfortable area. A private office, even in the corner of a room or a sectioned-off area of an open layout, is worth having in an apartment.
Area Rug
If you have one vintage piece in your luxury apartment, make it an area rug to cover your cold floor. Your toes will thank you come winter.
Wood Features
Pristine millwork made of mahogany, bird's-eye maple, cherry, or wood can add homey detail and character to a luxury apartment.
Floor-to-ceiling Windows
Something as simple as big, large windows in every room adds tremendous charm. Sunlight is a commodity.
Smart Home Features
A luxury apartment should have the latest smart home tech, including smart locks, thermostats, access control systems, blinds and curtains, intelligent lights, and more.
Smart Trash Can
A smart trash can is different from what you expect. Motion-activated with voice recognition features, it adds functionality to your kitchen and keeps those pesky smells locked down.
Robot Vacuum Cleaner
A Roomba or similar robot vacuum cleaner will do all the hard work for you on hard floors with no carpet. No sweeping or mopping is needed.
Parking
A parking space is a big plus, as you want to settle in a new luxury apartment with a place to park your car.
Premium Countertops
High-quality marble, quartz, or granite is in high demand in luxury homes and apartments. They instantly add charm to your kitchen.
Library Shelf
A small library of books is a great conversation starter. Even if you're not a big reader, this is a way to add personality in an aesthetically acceptable way. This is without conflicting with your existing home décor style.
Cooling Mattress
A cooling mattress with lovely foam cushions your body and draws away heat, keeping you snuggled and comfortable all night.
Lots Of Square Footage
Nothing beats square footage in a living space—the more, the merrier. Square footage defines your apartment space's potential, especially in an open layout.
High Ceilings
You can't expect a high ceiling inside luxury apartments. When you see one, it's a striking feature.
Herb Garden
A small herb garden is inexpensive, easy to grow, and provides fresh herbs for the kitchen whenever you want.
Walk-In Closets
A walk-in closet for your best formal wear, shirts, fashion accessories, shoes, and more is an unbeatable in-unit amenity. An attached walk-in closet will argue if your main bedroom isn't beautiful.
Private Balcony
A private terrace or balcony that overlooks the city in front of you is a charming feature of any apartment, even if it's only a few stories above ground level.
Security
A luxury apartment offers 24/7 security. This adds a lot of peace of mind in knowing that your unit is not only under lock and key but monitored by video and security personnel.
