7 Smart Features to Include in Your New Build

Designing your custom home is the perfect opportunity to integrate modern features that improve comfort, functionality, and long-term value. Here are seven of our favorite smart additions:

1. Smart Home Technology

From thermostats and lighting to security and audio — home automation makes your space more convenient and energy-efficient. We help you plan wiring and integration from the start.

2. Energy-Efficient Windows

High-performance windows not only reduce your energy bills but also regulate temperature and reduce outside noise. This is a must for New England winters.

3. Built-In Mudroom Storage

Especially useful in Massachusetts, a mudroom with benches, cubbies, and coat hooks keeps the rest of your home clean and organized.

4. EV Charging Station

Electric vehicles are the future. Including a charging outlet in your garage is a small investment now that adds value later.

5. Walk-In Pantry

Pantries have become more than just storage — they’re extensions of the kitchen. We design functional pantries that include outlets, shelving, and even coffee stations.

6. Heated Bathroom Floors

This simple luxury turns cold mornings into spa-like experiences. Radiant heat is energy-efficient and adds real comfort.

7. Flexible Room Design

Home offices, guest suites, playrooms — needs change over time. We help you design versatile spaces that can adapt with your family or lifestyle.
