Your waterfront home can truly be a sanctuary! Here are a few ways you can make it so.
Home is a place where you belong. It is your haunting grounds, your dwelling place. It should be where you most feel yourself. If you are thinking or in the process of building a waterfront home, it should certainly be a place where you can rest. Make your waterfront home a sanctuary with these key pieces of advice.
Keep Your Home Clean
Keep your home clean. It is one of the simplest ways to make a place feel welcoming. A dirty home will make you physically sick and doesn’t help your mental well-being either. Set up a cleaning routine if you don’t have one already, or at the very least do it when you see it’s necessary. Agree on who does what kinds of cleaning so there is no frustration or overloading on one person.
Keep It Clutter-Free
Clutter is inevitable in any home to some extent, but the more clutter a home has, the more distracting it gets. It can make one feel disorganized in their thoughts and ill at ease. Keep everything organized, get rid of excess, and keep storage areas organized as well. Even knowing that the bathroom vanity’s supplies are in order can make you feel better.
Face the View
What’s the best way to make a waterfront home a sanctuary? Take in as much of the beautiful waterfront view as possible. There is something soothing about viewing water. While your furniture arrangements should be functional for your home, they should also take as much advantage of the water view as possible.
Use Your Favorite Colors
As for the views of the home interior, they should be doused in your favorite colors. To keep them calm, you can use neutral colors, light and soft colors, or dark and moody colors. If bright and bold colors make you happiest, by all means, go for them!
Incorporate All the Senses
Nothing creates a sanctuary like a beautiful, clean space filled with your favorite smells and sounds. Scented candles and your favorite music are just two things you can add to your custom waterfront home that will enhance your experience all the more.
