There’s a house in the Cayman Islands that has been on sale for the longest time ever. Each time I need some inspiration to start working on the tasks I have mapped out in front of me I just Google it by name, but I won’t mention the name in case you might want to beat me to it and buy it up before I can make nearly enough money to afford it.
Anyway, you just know there’s something special about a home that has been reduced to around US$20 million from more than double that asking price, and it even has a name too. It’s not the quirkiest house in the world by any means, but whenever a house has a name then you know it probably features some of the most unique design features around, sure to blow your mind. It has a mahogany woven roof throughout the house, so you can just imagine how uniquely classy it looks.
Normally, when people think of building their ideal home, they rely on floor plans that are carefully thought out and created by reputable home builders such as those at lambiehomes.com or similar websites. The idea behind it is that such professionals know how to create optimum value for the money that you’re going to be spending on a home, giving you a sense of satisfaction and comfort in living. However, not all people are normal, and some spend outlandish amounts of money on home designs to incorporate strange elements such as the ones mentioned above.
Integration of these features may require a reputed home remodeling company that can propose those designs as well as seamlessly execute them. Right now, buying that house may not be possible for me but I tend to look for unique designs on different websites across the internet. If interested, one can visit webpages (like https://waredesignbuild.com/home-remodeling/), or similar sites that could help in getting some of the astonishing home interior ideas.
There’s no doubt that custom-built homes that stand out from the crowd in their uniqueness are often constructed by reputable builders and designers (such as this melbourne townhouse builder) who have years of experience and expertise. However, in some cases, homeowners also make their own home designs after getting inspiration from other home designs they see on the internet.
For example, I didn’t quite know that a part of me likes seeing sharks floating around in a shark tank that is mounted all around the kitchen until I came across a kitchen design featuring this madness! I don’t think I’d ever go as far as having something like that in my own home, but I could probably work that into one of my property fixer-upper projects for flipping. I’m pretty sure I can find a shark enthusiast who will fall in love with it, but that just highlights so many different quirks that can truly make a home feel like HOME!
As touched on, while it would mostly be expected perhaps of the celebrities with all the money in the world to quirk their homes right up, more and more regular folk like myself and my neighbours are getting in on the action. These regular folk like you and I look to the simple things to add to our homes and make them as weird and wonderful as we’d like to make them. And the home insurance industry is getting in on it too.
You can get cover for those weird and wonderful artefacts, ornaments, unique designs, etc, too as part of your insurance, but naturally it would just be a matter of having to customise things just a little more.
No matter – individualism is becoming more and more prevalent and it’s kind of the old way of thinking, having what looks like just another house in a townhouse complex!
Oftentimes even if the initial home design and decor project of the quirky persuasion was a multi-million dollar one commissioned by a celebrity or other rich and famous figure, it usually ends up on the market, up for grabs for someone who shares a similar passion.
