Housing properties are something which involves colossal investments. Bigger the investment consideration, the more intense is the planning. We all have an idea of the ideal home that we plan to settle down with. But what one lacks is a clear vision. 

Having clarity and detailed knowledge about the technicalities helps us meet our expectations sooner, resulting in greater satisfaction. These expectations may vary from person to person, depending on their lifestyle, fluctuating home prices and other factors that might affect a buyer’s choice.

Here are some popular features most of the buyers look for while searching for a new house:-

Installing a Modular Kitchen -

With passing time, one thing that has evolved majorly is the choice of kitchen utility and area. From making fire for food to inductions for easy cooking, there has been a major shift in choices of preparing food. In the modern era, people are looking for a modern kitchen or Modular kitchen as they are popularly called. 

It has an edge over traditional kitchens. It increases space management, usability, storage, efficiency and also aesthetics. Modular kitchens have easy installation. They can be remodelled and maintained easily. The best thing about these kitchens is, it is designed out of one's own personal needs and requirements, which increases its functionality and is much more convenient over conventional kitchens.

Spacious Bathroom -

While spacious bathrooms can completely be a personal choice, it is seen that a wide range of people opts for a decent space for their bathrooms. In fact a luxurious and spacious master bathroom is one of the most preferred elements for any home. After all, this special place provides a refuge from the busy day and allows occupants to relax and pamper themselves. It is one of the most private and intimate settings of a house.

Extended Balcony -

The balcony connects the home dweller with the outside world. Balconies are an integral part of every flat set up. It offers a secret escape from the stress of the modern lifestyle. It’s a place where one can sit, talk and relax for hours.  An extended balcony is always preferred by almost everyone. 

A balcony immediately expands the living space by turning the outdoor areas into a place where one can spend leisure time. The balcony gives an extra room to host in-house parties or any other gatherings. For many, the view from the balcony plays a major role in the selection of the house. Also having an extended balcony can enable house owners to do workout and yoga in the expanse of nature.

Utility Area -

A utility area refers to an area where all the extra household work is done. It plays a major role in the homemaker’s everyday life. The extra household work involves dishwashing, laundry and ironing of clothes. The area must have enough space to store a washing machine, a dishwasher as well as ironing stand. 

In India, women do not prefer to leave the household chores for the following day. These activities are an integral part of their daily lifestyle. Therefore, before finalizing any property the spouse will definitely make sure that there is enough area on the premises which can accommodate their desired appliances.

Extra Bedrooms -

Apart from a master bedroom, a kid’s room or any other room for the family members, a home should consist of an extra bedroom. This extra bedroom can be turned into a study or a guest room as and when needed. One can compromise with the dimensions of the extra room but not with its existence. 

This extra space is very essential to accommodate guests and ensure their comfort is looked after during their stay. It can also be turned into a lounge or an entertainment space depending upon the preference of the owners. 

Enlarge Living Area -

A living room is a place where people spend most of their time at home, so a living room of one’s choice is very important and significant. While some prefer a modern living room, some prefer a traditional one, either way, no one prefers a small one.

A living room should have enough space for all that the house owner needs to relax in it. Spacious area to set up the entertainment system, room for housing crockery and sofa are some elements that home owners prefer to have in the living areas. Using bold paint in a living room should be avoided as it can optically reduce the impression of prevalent space.

Parking Space -

A personal vehicle is something that almost every citizen owns in today’s time. It might be a two-wheeler or four-wheeler depending on the choice and lifestyle of a person. But the availability of a safe parking space is mandatory. So every flat should have sufficient parking space on its premises so that at least one vehicle can be accommodated. 

While buying a house is exciting, the whole process is equally stressful and scary, keeping in mind the paperwork, approvals and other legal formalities. Proper attention should be given before finalizing any house. Having clarity in what one is looking for can simplify the job.
