Once the summer hits, it’s time to pack up your bags and head to your home away from home. Your summer house is your luxurious escape for the season, where you can leave the hustle and bustle of city-living behind you.
If you want to make your summer home even better than it already is, you should think about adding these incredible upgrades.
One of the best parts of your summer home is the amazing view outdoors. Well, installing a sunroom will help you enjoy that view without having to step outside. You don’t have to worry about bugs disturbing your peace. You don’t have to worry about chilly weather or rough winds. You’ll be completely comfortable in the sunroom.
Sunrooms make perfect spots for reading nooks, living rooms and dining rooms. Just imagine eating your breakfast at the dining room table while the sun starts to rise or sipping on a cocktail under the full view of the stars.
Another upgrade that you can add to your summer house is a sauna. You’ll want to use it after going for a swim, taking a hike or doing your regular workout. It’ll help your muscles relax, so you don’t feel sore the next day. After ten minutes, you’ll feel completely refreshed.
Figure out what type of sauna you like best. Do you like the traditional Finnish sauna? The steam sauna? The modern infrared sauna trend? You’ll want to incorporate your favourite style into your summer house.
Sometimes you’ll use your summer house as a private escape, and sometimes you’ll use it as a gathering spot for a big reunion. You’ll invite your family and friends over to join you for a long weekend to soak up the sunshine on the patio, take refreshing dips in the water or take the boat out.
You’ll want to set up an impressive dining room that can host a whole party inside. This is why one of your upgrades should be a sleek, convertible dining room table. A Transformer Table is perfect for this — it has panels that can expand its size to comfortably fit twelve guests. When guests aren’t over, you can shrink it down to a simple six-seater or four-seater dining set.
The table is 100% hardwood. Choose the finish that best suits your style: American Mahogany, Canadian Dark Oak, Siberian Birch or Australian Acacia.
Why have a simple BBQ on your patio when you can have a whole kitchen?
Outfit your back patio with all of your outdoor cooking needs. Get a gas-fired grill for summer barbeques. Get a kitchen island with built-in fridges so you can serve refreshing drinks on hot afternoons. Or be like Friends star Courteney Cox, who has a wood-fired pizza oven in her backyard, so you can make authentic pizzas in minutes.
You don’t want to have any old bonfire behind your summer house. It’s not a campground!
Get a firepit like the one supermodel Kendall Jenner has in her LA mansion. You and your guests can sit around the firepit and talk for hours without having to run indoors to get a sweater.
With these upgrades, your summer house will be so luxurious that you won’t want to leave it.
