Achieve New Year’s Resolutions with Help from Your Home

The start of a new year is the perfect time to work toward positive changes in your life through New Year’s resolutions—and features included in your Weston Dean Custom Homes can help you achieve quite a few long-term goals. Whether you choose one of our floor plans to customize or design a floor plan from scratch, our team makes it easy to include features that can have a positive impact on your lifestyle. 

Find a new hobby, or spend more time on existing ones 

If you’re looking for new ways to unwind or take your mind off the stressors in your life, a hobby is the ideal way to do it. Read more books, take up knitting, practice an instrument, focus on fitness—whatever you decide to pursue, there’s plenty of ways to make space for your new or existing hobby in your new custom home. Libraries, studies, lofts, sitting areas, recreation rooms, home gyms and sunrooms offer the perfect place for you and your family to find new ways to spend your free time in 2022. 

Cook at home  

Whether you’ve been an at-home cook for years or one of your resolutions is to kick your takeout habit, cooking at home is much more enjoyable when you have a beautiful and functional kitchen. Weston Dean Custom Homes knows that kitchens are one of the most important rooms in the house for many people, which is why we include the features and finishes homeowners are looking for when creating each unique, stunning kitchen. 

Beautiful kitchen cabinets provide ample storage space, so you can keep the counters clear for maximum prep space. Walk-in pantries are a sought-after luxury that offers even more storage and organization options. Large center islands provide additional counter space, as well as a place for family and friends to keep your company while you cook. Double ovens, pot fillers, commercial grade refrigerators—no matter what you’re looking for to make your kitchen perfect, we can find the right way to incorporate it. 

Do good for the planet  

If one of your goals is to reduce your carbon footprint, or perhaps just put in some extra effort to better the environment around you, your home can aid in accomplishing that.

Smart home thermostats give homeowners control over energy usage, with the option to adjust, automate, schedule and monitor the temperature of your home from anywhere. Smart thermostats have been proven to help homeowners lower their energy expenses—reducing bills by up to 23 percent each year—and lower their carbon footprint. 

Incorporate more eco-friendly building materials and features into the construction of your home. The team of experts at Weston Dean can guide you through this process and find the best products and finishes that can bring your dream home to life. 

Additionally, regional plants, trees and bushes can be incorporated into your landscaping. By sticking with what’s native to the area, you can add a much-needed boost to the surrounding ecosystem while celebrating everything that Texas Hill Country has to offer. 

Own a home you’ll thrive in 

Ideally, your home should be a place you love spending time in—and when you have big ambitions for the new year, the right home can help you achieve set goals and improve your overall life. When you’re ready to get started on the process, contact our team online or give us a call at (210) 408-9107.
