Luxury Lake Home

We’re deep in the heart of winter, and while the Lake area may not experience many feet of snow in the winter, we do still have a lovely winter season. Just enough winter to enjoy it, with some nice sunny days thrown in the mix! All the same, it’s still winter. Sometimes the days are cloudy, the weather is cold, and you just need a touch of cozy luxury to make the season feel warm and welcoming. Luxury homes at the Lake of the Ozarks are prime examples of beauty and sophistication, so we wanted to take a few moments to examine what makes them so exquisite during the cold winter months.


Let There Be Light & Space Winter is darker than most months, due to the time change, and this can affect the mood in many ways. If you want to really make your luxury home feel cozy and inviting, you start with the lighting. Light and space can make any room feel open, warm, and inviting.

A new year is already here, and with that comes new trends and styles hitting the luxury homes. If you’re ready to makeover your luxury lake home with exotic materials and styles – here are a few things you can keep in mind! 

Curvy Designs  In 2019, it’s time to embrace the curvy design and aesthetic. This brings us back to the highlights of the 1970s with rounded furniture taking over the market. Round sofas and a chic way to bring the curvy trend into your home. If you really want to take it to the next level, look for curvy furniture in a velvet texture! This material is going to be the highlight of luxury homes in 2019. 
Blush Tones  The new neutral is blush. It pairs wonderfully with grays and naturals for a sophisticated and calming palette. You can also combine it with bold colors such as navy, forest green, or even citrine. The bold color can be the hero and the blush tones will be the perfect pair. 
Embrace the Antiques  Bringing antiques into your space is a beautiful nod t…
