IT'S THE COZIEST TIME OF THE YEAR

The official start to the winter season is just a few short weeks away, and while the Lake area may not experience the amounts of snowfall as some other areas, we do still have a lovely winter that provides breathtaking views and the chill in the air that comes with the season - just enough winter to enjoy, with some crisp, 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 that certain 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 discover what makes them so exquisite during the cold winter months.


Let There Be Light, Space, and Warmth

Winter has a tendency to be dark and dreary, due to the time change and weather than comes with it. These things can affect your mood in many different ways. If you want to make your luxury home feel cozy and inviting, start with the lighting. Light and bright can make any room feel open, and having a fireplace, whether it is wood burning, gas, or electric, will make your space feel warm, and inviting. Take advantage of your living environment by letting in lots of light by showcasing your windows that frame the amazing beauty of the lake and its surrounding landscape.

Add A Natural Touch

Taking your decorating to the next level in the winter can be just what you need. Investing in those genuine, high-quality pieces made from natural materials can work wonders for space. Solid wood, natural stone, rustic accents, and warm wool can be the perfect way to cozy up your luxury home.


Add Some Bling!

Every luxury home needs a little bling and sparkle! Gold, silver, and bronze all add a little extra punch to your decor. Shiny textures can also make the space feel larger, and the way the light bounces and glows off of them can really add to the ambiance. Two or three thoughtful pieces are generally all that is needed for that touch of luxury.


Comfortable Furnishings

Luxury is all about comfort. It’s about finding that piece that makes you want to relax, enjoy, and escape from outside distractions. You can create that extra-special coziness in your home with the furnishings you choose. High-quality, classic pieces can really fill that need for warm and welcoming spaces. From large oversized chairs to warm, comfortable couches - your furnishings are where you’ll find the cozy comfort you’re looking for this winter. 

Luxury Textiles

Rich, luxurious fabrics and soft and fluffy materials provide the best in warmth and coziness when you add throws and pillows to your comfortable furnishings. Create a reading nook that overlooks the lake, and you'll have the perfect escape during these cold winter months.

Create a Getaway

The feeling you get when you first walk into a luxury resort suite can be created in your own luxury lake home. The bedding looks and feels so cozy that you never want to get out, the lamps are all turned on to create the perfect ambiance, and there are beautiful window treatments framing the incredible views of the area. The spa-like bathrooms are large and spacious, with all of the luxurious amenities you could imagine. An inviting soaker tub completes the atmosphere, and the warm towels all rolled up and displayed make for the perfect feel. This is something you can recreate in your own luxury lake home during the winter months, to be enjoyed all year long!


Year-Round Luxury Living

While many people think that the million-dollar homes at the Lake of the Ozarks are only for a summer destination, they can also be appreciated and enjoyed all year long. The serene sounds of the lake in the winter months are calm and soothing and are the perfect backdrop for your cozy luxury home.  If you don't currently own a luxury home at the Lake of the Ozarks, we would love the opportunity to find the property perfect for you and your family.
