It’s almost that time of year again. That’s right. It’s game time! It may look a little different sans fans in the stadium or with limited capacity but enjoying football from the comfort of your home still scores big. Check out these six ideal house features for watching football from home.
#1 Love your Open Floor Plan!
This is ideal for entertaining. The open concept that connects the living room and kitchen is perfect for socializing and ensuring the cook doesn’t miss a thing. Plus, it eliminates the excuses when it comes time to refill the chip bowl or grab a cold snack because you’re right there—and you won’t miss any of the action!
#2 A Plush Outside Patio
When it’s time to yell, cheer, whoop, and holler, you definitely want to utilize a good back porch. Obviously, comfortable outdoor seating and a clearly-visible, large TV are a must! Added bonus on the back porch would be outdoor fans while it’s still warm and a firepit for when it cools off. Not to mention either nice sliding glass doors or French doors for easy access from the house.
#3 Theater Room or Large Living Room
Either one of these features gives you one desirable thing—space! A theater room or a large living room allow for plenty of cushy seating from comfy sectionals to recliners as well as plenty of tables (think coffee tables, end tables and even TV trays). The main requirements here are no interference when it comes to the view of the TV and easy access for drinks and snacks.
#4 Surround Sound
Whether it’s coming through a high-tech sound bar or a full home audio system that allows you to play the game in every room and on that great outdoor patio, a superb sound system is a must-have. The sounds of plays, tackles, whistles, and the band will make you feel like you are there.
#5 The Bonus Room/Game Room/Playroom
This may, in fact, by the most important room for some football fans. This is the space to send the kids to play hard while you watch the game uninterrupted! The kids will also love the designated space that gives them the freedom to be as loud as they want.
#6 The Half Bath
This needs no further explanation but is the best when it comes to convenience for guests! Just make sure it’s spic-n-span and stocked with plenty of hand soap, disposable hand towels, and a nice scented candle.
