Six must-haves for the modern man cave
Personal space is a requisite in today’s modern life, but the “man cave” is something more than just a room above the garage to get away from it all. It’s a place to celebrate life’s accomplishments, show off hobbies and collectibles, and serves as a retreat for relaxation, entertainment, and enjoying the finer things in life – either alone or with friends.
At Luxury Home Solutions, we know specialty rooms. We’ll work with you to create the man cave of your dreams, with sophisticated personal touches and unique showpieces that celebrate your whims and passions.
Below are just a few must-haves for the modern man cave:
A leather recliner tops the list, because let’s face it: When it’s time to kick back, there’s nothing more comfortable than a top-grain chair you can fall asleep in. They’re elegant and durable, and today’s top models have power reclining systems, cup holders, and dual USB ports and charging stations to power your mobile devices. When it comes time to purchase one, skip the online deals and head to a furniture showroom.
You’ll probably need extra seating, so it makes sense to invest in a matching sofa or a few well-designed bar stools.
A man cave isn’t complete without a big-screen television for game days or movie nights – or better yet, a home theater system with wall-to-wall sound. Today’s 4K Ultra High Definition OLED televisions offer exquisite color accuracy, wide viewing angles, and a host of built-in features. With technology changing so fast, it makes sense to invest in something that will last for years to come.
Dartboards, poker tables, or pool tables all provide opportunities for socializing, and you’ll want more than a few entertainment options for when it comes time to host friends and family.
You’ve spent good money collecting bottles of vintage wine for the right occasion. But are you storing them correctly? Wine refrigerators will keep your reds cool (between 60° and 65° F) and your whites cold (between 50° and 60° F). You’ll want to select a model with the right capacity, temperature zones, and design style to fit your space. Wine Enthusiast can help narrow the search.
You’ll also want a wet bar with running water and a sink to serve and rinse drinks. It’s an ideal space to store beer and wine glasses, bottle openers, decanters, and coffee makers. Check out Pinterest for tasteful ways to incorporate a bar area into your retreat space.
For fine tobacco enthusiasts, a desktop or cabinet humidor is the best way to keep your cigars fresh and flavorful.
