5 Must-Haves for a Luxury Walk-in Closet

Closets can often be an overlooked room in your home. However, your closet can have so much more potential than just four walls with hanging racks and built-in storage shelves.

When homeowners are looking for their forever home, they may compromise closet space for a larger kitchen, a more oversized bathroom, or the ideal location. They may think they can live with the smaller closet because everything else about the home is perfect! As long as there's enough room to hang their clothes and has extra shelving for storage, the closet is deemed sufficient.

Then come a few years later, the one thing they compromised on is now giving them the most problems. Depending on how much hanging and shelving space you may have, clothes can become crowded, and shoes can be left in an unorganized mess on the floor. Not to mention other accessories like scarves, belts, and handbags that can also add to the disorganized clutter in your closet.

To try and combat this issue, homeowners may decide to add more custom shelving or start going through their closets and getting rid of items they no longer use. While this can help with the issue of having a small closet, there is another option. You can add a closet room addition! Building a room addition or converting a small bedroom into a walk-in closet is an investment that will go a long way! Most homeowners wouldn't think of their closet as being a quiet space where they can escape to enjoy a quiet moment, but luxury walk-in closets have the potential to become your favorite spot to relax in your home.

Here are our top 5 luxury must-have features for the closet of your dreams.

Custom Coffe Bar: Every morning routine starts with a good cup of coffee. However, instead of having to walk all the way to the kitchen for your morning brew, you can add a coffee bar to your closest design! With a coffee bar in your closet, you can enjoy your favorite morning brew from the peace and quiet of your room. You can also wake up feeling more relaxed as the aroma of your brewing coffee fills the room.

Custom Drawers and Shelving: You can kiss uncluttered messes goodbye with new shelving and drawers in your closet addition. By building a closet room addition, you allow yourself to add shelves and drawers that go all the way up to the ceiling. You can add the perfect amount of rack space to organize all your shoes, clothes, and accessories!

Seating Area: A small bench or chair is the perfect accessory to your dream walk-in closet! It provides a comfortable place where you can slip your shoes on and off or sit and relax in a quiet place after a long day. If you add a tv to your closet, your seating area can be the perfect spot to sit and watch your favorite shows before getting ready for the day.

An Island: In a luxury closet, everything has a place, including all of your accessories. An island provides your luxury closet with the right amount of storage space to store jewelry, sunglasses, scarves, and other small accessories. Your island will allow you to keep your closet organized for a clean and clutter-free design. An island is also the perfect spot to lay out your outfit for the next day.
