Why Walk in Closets Are One of the Most Desirable Features of the Modern Home

May 23, 2015 By Webmaster

If you ask any realtor that works in the Markham and Scarborough areas about the features that home buyers look for the most when viewing properties that are for sale, we guarantee that walk in closets would be right up there. But why are they such an in-demand feature? What value do they add? We’re going to find out the answers to these questions in this post.

What are the Main Benefits Offered By Walk In Closets

Before investing in one of these, it’s important to look at all of the facts and work out whether the value walk in closets can bring is going to be worth the investment required under your circumstances. To help you decide, here are a few of the main benefits that they offer:

  • More Space – This may be stating the obvious, but as it’s one of the biggest benefits that walk in closets offer, we simply have to put it down. While you might currently have to cram all of your clothes into a freestanding closet, crumpling and creasing them in the process, walk in closets have bags of space and everything can be stored neatly without causing any unnecessary damage.
  • Greater Organization – You’re in a rush, you need to get to work but you can’t find your work shirt amongst all of the clutter in your freestanding wardrobe. Does this scenario sound familiar? In a walk in closet, because there’s so much extra space, each type of clothing item can be allocated its own specific spot, which makes it extremely easy to track down any item stored inside it. They are worth the investment for this alone as the more efficient organization can save you a considerable amount of stress.
  • Extra Privacy – Walk in closets often double up as changing rooms, which is especially handy if the main part of your bedroom offers little privacy. By adding the right lighting, some seating and some carefully placed mirrors, not only can you store your clothes inside your new closet, you can get yourself ready inside it too!

Walk in closets have been one of the most frequently requested projects at Bertone Woodworking over the last few years and if you would like to utilize the expertise of our team, we would be glad to meet with you to discuss your requirements. We also design and install custom kitchen cabinets and bathroom cabinets.

Innovative Design Ideas When Planning Walk In Closets in Markham, Pickering & Scarborough

October 18, 2014 By Webmaster

If your home is large enough to accommodate a walk in closet then it is something that can certainly provide many benefits. Closets are perfect for storing all of your clothes and shoes without taking up space in your other rooms. There is also a certain luxury attached to homes that benefit from walk in closets. Essentially, the room provides you with a substantial dressing or changing room. Closets don’t have to be used as a simple storage area though. There are many contemporary and innovative designs that include fold away ironing boards, floor to ceiling mirrors, seating and even televisions and music systems. Many people will not have vast amounts of experience in relation to this type of room but that is not a problem. There are a number of companies in the Markham and Scarborough area, including our own, that specialize in walk in closets. Why not contact us and discuss your requirements further?

 

Walk In Closets: Interesting Design Options

 

Of course, your closet needs to be organised and practical so this must be your first consideration. However, there are a whole host of features and designs that you can include to make your closet really stand out. Below are a few ideas to consider during the planning stage.

 

  • How Many Items Do You Need to Store? – This will have a huge impact on the style and design of the closet. In particular, you should consider what type of items you have the most of. If clothes make up the majority of your wardrobe then at least two walls should be dedicated to hanging space with perhaps the smaller third wall used to store your shoe collection. If shoes are your main passion then a stunning double wall showcase for your collection may be the answer.
  • Thinking Outside of the Box: Contemporary Designs – A walk in closet should undoubtedly have a personal touch and reflect your own personality. Contemporary designs featuring a slanted roof, spotlights, floor to ceiling mirrors and modern custom cabinets can make the closet particularly eye-catching.
  • Consider Your Lighting Options – By incorporating modern lighting into your closet design you are ensuring an elegant, luxurious look. Lighting options include lighted hanging rods which illuminate your clothes when it is dark or perhaps a set of attractive rotating spotlights to add a touch of glamour.
  • Added Luxury? – Why not consider a boutique-style closet? This sumptuous type of design can incorporate tables and chairs, large mirrors on walls and on the ceiling, chandeliers, televisions and even music systems. The overall look is comparable to that of a boutique or fashion shop.
  • An Elegant Focal Point – If your closet is large enough to include something in the centre of the room then choose an elegant stand-alone piece. This will act as a great focal point. Options include dressers, storage islands and even large, luxurious custom cabinets.

 

Indulge your creative side. Walk in closets are very personal rooms and you should feel comfortable in them at all times. Call Bertone Woodworking on 416-876-5144 for specialist advice and guidance, plus many great design ideas.
