In addition to décor many of these properties are secondary or vacation homes where the residents are looking to be well entertained for the time, they are staying. Also, some of these man cave spaces are so advanced they make your grandpa’s garage look like a prehistoric den!

Speaking of garages, there’s plenty of room in a 3-car garage to store more than your golf clubs and fishing tackle. Many of these man caves have been designed with a full bar, old neon lights, pool tables and 4K Flat Screen television making this the ultimate hang out for your leisurely time. Often these spaces are used for entertaining guests and signing business deals. Whatever the case may be, you can rest assure many hours are spent enjoying whatever the home owner’s favorite past time entails.

Rather than storing the family’s fleet of cars and motorcycles, the inventory might be displayed to look like the vehicles are in a showroom. If collecting antique or exotic cars is your thing, why not find ways to make them be the highlight of your room and used as an art piece rather than hidden behind a door. We’ve seen a variety of means to feature prized possessions including glass flooring where people wandering in the home could look down to see the owners, Maserati. Part of the fun having these types of recreational rooms is thinking unconventionally. Stretching one’s imagination and creating a space where you can dawdle admiring your personal investments.

The décor might consist of movie posters or sports jerseys and other collectibles; it’s truly a personalized space meant to inspire.

While some rooms are used to encourage, others may be utilized as the ultimate game room equipped with pinball machines, ping-pong tables and maybe some billiards. These make excellent camps for the men and boys to coerce with one another for weekend parties and a whole slew of other events. Not only are these rec rooms a ton of fun, but they're also excellent places for the kids to hang out with friends where you’ll always know where they are. In fact, these are the exact types of places they want to be because of the activity. If you aren’t designing for yourself, then do it for the children.

If you’ve decided on a private den for adults only, then why not display your gun collections and wild game? These are specialty dens, that can be equipped with wine cellars and cigar humidors keeping the atmosphere at the highest caliber. Just imagine your guests with their jaws dropping while you share your story of the latest hunt. Keep them engaged with a snifter of some of the finest brandy, and you could be sharing stories for days. The point is, this is a space that is exclusive to the rest of the house keeping the value of your home in good standing. Who wouldn’t love to show this spot that has been individually thought out with your unique style?

On the opposite side of the more primitive décor, there’s plenty of excellent material with a more contemporary flavor. It’s a matter of broad preference, whatever the case may be.
