Btw, yes in a Thailand house.

I think an entry statement is important.

Maybe start with location and describe all the details of house.

For gods sake don't include any photos. Let the prospective buyer guess as to what you're selling

Don't include any history of the house. let the buyer beware.

Tell the guard at the edge of your district to direct people to your house.

Tell people if they dont' want to pay the full price you want that you'll just keep it on the market for another 3 years.

That'll guarantee a good deal for both parties.

^^ He's building ... not selling

High ceilings, quality materials: granite, marble, hard woods etc, good finish and attention to detail.

If case you are sincere, i'd suggest you take a look at some real estate sites to get a marginally decent idea as to what you might want to tell people about your luxury place for sale.

www.tulia dot com

That's just a tiny start for some decent information.

You could also look at www.remax.com

If these don't help you please post with your further questions.

Good luck.

As David mentioned, house is being built and not for sale.

David is also right I think, having a nice entrance. Let's face it, a bedroom is just a bedroom, perhaps the bathroom and living areas are the target for something special.

I suppose I'm thinking if anyone did anything special in these parts of the house to create some kind of luxury look?

Some members here have built some awesome properties that I've seen, some of the interior fitouts must be to a high standard also I would have a guess at.

Go for high ceilings. Fit wainscoting panels. Install a fake fireplace with chimney breast. Avoid external sliding doors, opt for wooden swing doors. Decorate with (darkish) pastel colours. Furnish lavishly. Live the life of Reilly.

The plan is to build it in stages and a bit smaller smile.png, and of course the internal finishings will be different.

I want to go for the overall look, but i personally prefer a selection of lighter colors.

The central hall with 7.20 meter high ceilings, we intend to use this area for meetings and parties.

I especially like the staircase and the bathroom with a him and her side. At the end of the bathroom is a double shower.

Sure. So what I have hoped and what it will be is 2 different things. Front of the house is the lounge 12x8m. 5bedrm, etc etc.

Whatever you decide don't forget to make it liveable and cleanable smile.png

I see far too many 'designer' interiors which look great, until you add humans, grand children, possibly pets, at which point it all goes horribly wrong sad.png

We went for a certain wow (ish) factor outside, inside is simply furnished and easy for Wifey to keep in order.

Crossy, as long as wifey can keep it in order :D

Good point!

Stunning Morakot, a tad too fussy for me but looks fantastic.

-bathroom fixtures 24k gold = a must,

-direct access from home to the airconditioned stable of your race horses,

-library with a collection of handwritten or first print books/scripts, all books minimum 4 centuries old,

-open air Thai kitchen with half a dozen charcoal burners,

-airconditioned garage for your classic cars with attached 2-bedroom flat for your mechanic,

-inside and outside fluted Doric columns with Corynthian capitals and free style bases (Naam™).

to be continued... smile.png

I'm glad Naam has appeared.

His home is fantastic, and he has pets! (1 or 2 dogs Naam?)

Invest in a professional interior designer. Choose one whose portfolio includes the type of design you are looking for.Someone willing to incorporate your ideas into the design. Consider the costs, the interior designer won't.

OK ... do you want the house to have a luxury look from a Western or Thai perspective.

Same but definitely different ... biggrin.png ... seriously!
