Whether sea view, river view, 5 rooms, a flat or a villa,
luxury properties fill anyone's eyes. However, it is necessary to identify the main characteristics and what to take into account in a luxury property. For this,
Engel & Völkers sent a statement to
SUPERCASA Notícias with five aspects to keep in mind if you are considering the purchase of a luxury property:
1. The quality of the property
One of the main differentiating characteristics of luxury real estate is the materials used in the house covering and decoration. In luxury homes, quality materials and good, elegant finishes predominate. It is usual to use materials such as solid wood, real and natural stones of high quality. These types of materials help the property preserve its good condition for longer.
2. The location
The location is one of the most important aspects of a luxury property and should be chosen according to the needs of those who will use and enjoy the property. Normally luxury properties are concentrated in the best areas of the city, with good access, in quiet areas, where the quality of life is higher and surrounded by all kinds of services (supermarkets, transport, schools, hospitals, shopping centres, marinas, etc.).
3. The type of house
A luxury house must have good internal and external areas. It should have individual spaces (bedrooms or suites, wardrobes, etc.) for each member of the family, and common areas such as a large balcony, spacious kitchen, leisure and dining rooms, gym, swimming pool, garden, Jacuzzi, among others.
4. The architecture and finishings
The architecture of a luxury house is completely different from the simpler properties. As a rule, this type of property has the signature of a renowned architect or agency, with contemporary elements and the use of quality and premium materials, such as glass, marble, natural stone, etc.
Finishes are probably the criterion that most differentiates a luxury home from an "ordinary" home, in luxury properties, the materials used are of superior quality, such as fine woods, large-format china and other items that help differentiate the space and justify its market value. The choice of materials that have durability and resistance is the key piece of this type of development.
5. Exclusivity
The more sophisticated and better equipped the property, the higher its value. If you look for a luxury house you will find some amenities that you will not find in a so-called "ordinary" house, such as unique architectural features, spacious environments, sauna, wine cellar, among others. The more differentiating factors it has from "ordinary" houses, the more exclusive it will be, and the higher its price will be.
