New build property: how to personalize it

immobilier neuf luxembourg

Moving into a brand new apartment does not necessarily mean bare walls and purely functional style, on the contrary. From the moment you reserve a property, several features can be personalized so that your home reflects your own and unique style. Here are some recommendations to feel at home from the moment you move in.

Make customization works before moving in

From the moment you reserve your property, you can start thinking on how you will customize its different spaces. This is not always an easy task if you have but plans and 3D images, but your interlocutors (agents, developers) will help you for this purpose.

Practically, you have the possibility, as early as possible, to share your wish to relocate partition walls. For instance, you can always choose to open the kitchen on the living room or to split an office into two rooms in order to convert one in a spare bedroom in the future.

The kitchen is one of the house spaces that families love most to customize: everyone has its own needs and habits and the developers’ standard solutions do not always meet them. That is why, when you buy a new build property, you must also take the necessary time to anticipate the whole organisation of the kitchen, from the location of the appliances to the needed cupboards, not forgetting your preferred solutions in terms of drawers, doors or other types of storage.

Think about your need for electrical and other connections

As the apartment you are buying will be “built for you”, take the time to identify all the water intakes, inlets and outlets on the plan. Once more, do not hesitate to request some changes if you do not like the initial design.

Theoretically, there is nothing to prevent moving the washing machine from the kitchen to the bathroom or even to partition a room to create a laundry. Within the limits of the available space, you should formulate all your proposals and ask all the questions: during the works to come you will be steered and explained what is possible, and when it is necessary to trade-off.

Eventually, carefully locate each electric socket. This may look like a detail at this point, but once in the house you will be very happy to have made smart and thoughtful choices.

Choose your design, colours and organisation

Besides major changes, which sometimes require additional works and the intervention of skilled workers, your decision to buy a new apartment will open a wide range of possibilities in terms of design and customisation.

Heated towel racks and wall-hung WC in the bathroom, walk-in shower or bathtub, wood in the common spaces, wall colours, etc. You usually have a lot of possibilities to design your dream apartment… Do not miss this opportunity!
