5 Fun Custom Home Ideas

September 10, 2024

A new house can be just a new house; built by award-winning builders like Ameri-Star Homes, your home could be as solid as they get, and that is great! However, if you are looking to maximize the fun and quirky in your home design, you will be happy to know that it is possible. Are you looking for a few fun custom home ideas? These five should help get you started.

Secret Doors and Passages

There is no custom home idea more classic than a secret door or secret passageway. All customized homes in books would have them, as did mansions centuries ago. Some secret doors merely blended in with the paneled walls to streamline the interior design, but others were primarily for security and stealth. Yours could be for either of those reasons or just for fun.

Secret Lookouts

Some mansion owners had secret lookouts in their homes, and you can find people today online who still make secret windows in their homes for entertainment. While you might not care to have a hidden window inside your refrigerator, a secret lookout could add sunlight and ventilation to a cozy nook.

Custom Lofts

Living spaces tend to be the living room, the family room, and potentially the kitchen and rec room. However, you can add even more living areas through the creation of nooks and lofts, whether it is a mezzanine, a large stair landing, or a finished attic.

Old and New Tech

Technology comes and goes, but who says you have to stick with one or the other? If there are inventions that you think would make your home life much more functional and fun, then by all means, there is a way to implement them. Who says you can’t have a house with a dumb waiter and built-in USB outlets?

Custom Rec Rooms

What is more fun in home design than an entertainment room? Whether you are a gamer, a pool player, a board game enthusiast, or an avid reader, you can make space for your favorite pastime by customizing your home to meet that need.
