Give us more reason to go home! (Please)

I know that not everyone is into the housing thing, to be honest I just got into it myself. But for all my pvp and pve peeps it would be nice if they had more of a reason to visit homes or invest in their own.
And yes, I know we have guild houses and all that, but i feel like if we had boons that we can only get in our homes that boosted various things. I'm not asking for anything game breaking but like have a boon that increases your drop rate in a trial for 1hr. Or one that increases your chance to find a recipe or furnishing plan from opening desk and wardrobes etc. You could also make it so you can only have one boon active per home so you actually have to move around a bit.
You could even pull one from skyrim's book and allow us to sleep in our homes again and receive a new version of "well rested", so when you log off you can come back back and have your toon have some small experience buff.
Little things like that would encourage people to visit and see more homes. ZOS you guys have created a great way for players to Express themselves! I just want to see it expanded a tad bit more.
I know I'm rambling but I just want our houses to be a little more interactive not just for us, but for our friends too.
(Ps: I think the guild house should be it's own seperate entity accessed from the guild tab and not force guildmasters to keep it as their primary.)

LadySilvie✭✭Been a long time since I played Skyrim but from what I recall, houses felt like they were more of an achievement there because you could sleep and even have a family there. I felt so bad for the street orphans I was motivated to get a house for them and make their life happier haha.
I can sit down in my ESO house..... and that's it. No laying down. No interacting with food or mirrors or anything like that. No saying hi or petting my mounts or pets. No riding mounts around even in the massive homes. No interacting with much of anything other than lights and other toggleable things (apart from the truly useful crafting stations and chests).
I feel like the NPCs coming are a step in the right direction, especially the talkative ones, but yeah -- a sleep mechanic would be awesome to give me a reason to go to the awesome houses I own even if my guild's hall has all the crafting stations and target dummies.
I'd also love to be able to set ownership of each residence per character. Maybe leave a primary overall residence option so it doesn't mess with guilds and whatnot if they won't allow distinct guild halls, but allow me to have that fantasy of my Argonian home belonging to my argonian character, so I don't have to scroll through houses alphabetically to look for hers if I want to port to it.
Right now my houses are 90% just free teleports that look pretty haha. Some extra utility would be very welcome.3
