Master bedrooms with the 'royal' treatment

You may not think you need to have a master bedroom fit for royalty, but perhaps you do. 
You may feel undeserving of such perceived opulence, but you’re not.
When you’re a buyer, make a “master bedroom fit for royalty” a priority.
It’s a good idea for buyers to think about what’s impressive for them, but also what’s important for the next buyer. That usually figures to be somewhere down the road, of course, but whether the road is a short one or a long one, it always ends.
And if you have a queen-sized bed now, you might want to prepare for the day when it turns into a king-sized bed…to accommodate kids or pets who might want to climb aboard. 
Royal kids and royal pets, of course.
What makes a master bedroom fit for royalty?
Four things.
One is space. Making sure the bedroom is large enough for all of your existing bedroom furniture and, as mentioned, your projected bedroom furniture. You should be able to walk around the bed with at least a little room to spare.
Two is the ensuite…the private bathroom. The best master bedrooms all have an ensuite, and it helps if there’s a double sink — to minimize sink debates and maximize property value.
Three is natural light. Most masters are going to feature adequate windows to let the sun shine in, a combination that makes a room feel bigger than it is.
Four is storage. Not close-the-door, hide-the-boxes storage, but enough room to house clothes that don’t fit in a dresser or armoire.
It’s important not to adopt a “we can make it work” attitude, because the next owner may not be prepared to do that.
So with the master bedroom, think royally…and royalty.
