There are many things that help to make a house a home, including the memories we make as we entertain ourselves each day. Perhaps the best part about home entertainment is that no two houses feature the exact same options for passing the time. This season, we’re exploring just a handful of the greatest home theaters, game rooms, and other unique options that are bringing homeowners comfort and enjoyment! We are pleased to present this curated selection of luxury entertainment from Howard Hanna’s Homes of Distinction program.
18 Wedgewood Lane, Fox Chapel, PA 15215
Situated on a serene 2.1-acre property, this five-bedroom modern ranch offers a delightful setup for movie lovers and gamers alike. The main level itself features a lovely kitchen, a luxurious master suite, and a detailed studio space that’s perfect as a crafting room or home office. The lower level, however, is where the fun takes place! A fully appointed wet bar, a wine cellar, a game room, and a home theater ensure that no one in this household will struggle with boredom. While an outdoor multi-sport court is also available for use, you may find yourself struggling to drag yourself away from the surround speakers and high-speed fiber optics of the ready-to-use indoor entertainment space!

Welcome to Laurel Bluff, a beautifully renovated, contemporary home set amid two private acres of natural landscaping. Multi-level vaulted ceilings and tall windows that overlook stunning water and nature views flood the interior with natural light. Once you’ve taken in the views, you’ll surely want to retire to the lower level of the home, which functions as an office, a library, and a multimedia room with a bar and a wood-burning stove. Here, the luxury “entertainment” space embraces the slower side of life. You could settle into a comfortable chair and enjoy your favorite book or movie, head out to the expansive private pier, or relax by the in-ground pool with hot tub.

2625 Sandfiddler RD, Virginia Beach, VA 23456
This spectacular, semi-oceanfront, 8-bedroom home offers year-round enjoyment and ensures that you won’t have to choose between top-of-the-line entertainment and the beach-house life you’ve always dreamed of, with unobstructed ocean views and the soothing sounds of never-ending waves. Of course, a rainy day can quickly turn a beach oasis into a gray and dreary sight. On those days, you’ll easily be able to entertain yourself at home, perhaps watching a movie in the indoor theater or playing a game of pool. Either way, you’ll enjoy yourself until those ocean views are ready for you once more. It’s truly the best of both worlds.
