Forget what you know about bachelor pads. While some may envision bare-bones places where single men hole up when they're not out and about, these spaces have become far more refined and stylized without losing their comfort.

Bean bags have been replaced with cushy leather statement chairs and those liquor collections are no longer relegated to an obscure cabinet but rather a swanky bar cart. The best part is, even if you appreciate the familiar appeal the stereotypical bachelor pad has, you can still get a homey vibe and a space that's styled to the nines.

Whether it's a cozy place to return to, a spot where you hang with friends, a way to impress a new love interest, or a mixture of all three, you'll find an inspiring mix of suggestions below.
