Master Bedroom addition

Master bedrooms are making a comeback. Once overlooked, remodeling the master bedroom has become a very popular project. Lifestyle experts suggest that this trend is driven by the fact that many people are looking to create some level of comfort and relaxation in their homes as the world is increasingly stressful. With that in mind, here are the 2019 Master Bedroom Addition design trends you’ll want to know about:

1) Spacious & Single Purpose

Master bedroom additions tend to be larger than the average new master bedroom, which is a little more than 300 square feet. This space is devoted to a single purpose: for the couple to have a peaceful place to rest and relax. Banish the work you brought home from the office and your treadmill to some other location in your home! Closets and storage spaces can be both easy to access and unobtrusive to contribute to the clean, open feel of the master bedroom suite.

2) A Wonderful View

Have your master bedroom suite designed to take advantage of the view. Large, strategically placed windows provide for plenty of natural light. Capture the magic feel of a vacation getaway by sleeping in a space designed to delight you. Your choice of building contractor matters here – choose a local contractor who’s experienced and creative for best results.

3) Smart Storage

In lots of families, the master bedroom turns into the place where everything that doesn’t have a place to live winds up. You shouldn’t have to sleep in your storage space! The best master bedroom addition trend we’ve seen incorporates smart storage options into the design. This storage takes a variety of forms, including closets, cabinetry, and custom-built solutions to maximize usable space.

If you’re planning to have a master bedroom addition built in 2019, the time to start researching design ideas is now. Thinking through what you’d like your new bedroom to look like and how you’d like it set up makes communicating your wishes to your building contractor much easier.

We are living in turbulent times. Many people in Western MA are experiencing high levels of stress. Having a beautiful, calming place to relax at the end of the day is a good way to alleviate some of the feelings of anxiety and overwhelm. Romantic relationships flourish faster when couples have a place to enjoy each other’s company without chaos and distraction.

So, how’s your bedroom looking? When you bought your home, the master bedroom may have not been your top priority. Having a convenient commute, being in a good school district, having enough space for the kids and the pets – all of these concerns tend to be more important. But now that you’ve settled in, it may be clear that the master bedroom you have isn’t the master bedroom you want.

The top complaints we hear about master bedrooms is that they’re too small, serve double-duty as a storage area for the family, and are noisy and uncomfortable. Another concern is when the master bedroom is located upstairs and the people who need to access it have difficulty climbing stairs.

One way to address this is by having a master bedroom addition built. Current trends in master bedroom design center around the need for a calm, peaceful retreat within the home. Typically, master bedroom additions are larger than the existing master bedroom; suites average between 400-500 square feet. Closet space is a top priority in many master bedroom additions; many couples choose to have two closets, which may include built in storage features. An en suite bathroom is also a popular option.

What’s not making it into new master bedroom additions? Increasingly, electronics. While watching TV in bed has been a cultural phenomenon for many years, more and more people want their master bedroom to be a place where they can truly unplug.
