Here Are Six Living Room Features That Will Make Your Polk County Home More Inviting:
Adding a fireplace to your living room will not only provide your home with warmth, but it will also provide your family with endless activities such as making S'Mores, roasting hotdogs, cuddling next to the fireplace, a place to take family pictures, and more.
Custom built-ins can take any space and make it more useful. For example, add some custom built-in bookshelves, create a hidden reading nook, make a room out of the space under your stairs, add a wet or dry bar to your living room, turn part of your living room into a designated game room, or anything else you desire.
Why not install a media center in your Des Moines living room to accommodate all your TVs, game consoles, and other electronics? A media center is something the entire family will enjoy. You could also build a media center that could showcase a theater size screen for watching all your favorite movies.
Custom woodwork could include anything such as crown molding, high-end baseboards, wainscotting, chair rails, trimmed out bookshelf nooks, picture-frame paneling, floating shelves, sliding barn doors, a custom fireplace mantel, plant shelves, hidden storage for your hobby supplies, or anything else that would enhance your space.
Don't forget the ceilings when you are remodeling your Iowa living room. Why not add some custom ceiling beams, circular molding rounds, wood trim, a hand-painted mural, plaster ceiling designs, ceiling inlays accented with high gloss paint, ceiling tiles, grasscloth ceilings, coffered ceiling tiles, or any number of other ideas that would make your living room fit your taste and decor.
Adding lighting that is not only attractive but functional is key to finishing out your new inviting living room look. Not to mention, the right lighting is perfect for setting the mood for those romantic moments or whenever you just want to relax and unwind. There are plenty of living room lighting options from which you can choose.
You could consider illuminated ceiling squares, recessed lighting, track lighting, ambient or task-specific lighting, spotlights, mini- or multi-tiered pendant lighting, a custom or decorative chandelier, sculptural sconces that not only light up the room but could also serve as decorative art pieces as well. You could even add some skylights to add more natural light to the room if you want.
With living room lighting, the sky is the limit in most cases so have some fun and enjoy!
Remodeling your living room to include any of the above features will add to your home's value. Therefore, doing so will not only give you endless enjoyment for years to come, but it could also bring you a higher return on your investment as well.
