The most important productivity tool at home: a closed door. Make it clear to your family/flatmates that when you're working, you're working, and that non-urgent interruptions are not appreciated. Otherwise your productivity will go down the crapper.
Also, treat work-time as you would if you were at work. I.e., don't do household chores during work hours.

I made a list of things that help me concentrate that I can pull out when I'm having trouble concentrating. For example certain types of music help me immerse; having a clean (uncluttered) desk helps me. Before lunch is better than after lunch, etc. Remember your home office is not your office, and you will have to be disciplined to stay productive in the long term.
