Some people need the setting change, many others do not. I am far less distracted by home stuff than all the office distractions like other people yapping about sports and other things I don't care about. It is about staying on task, which is also necessary in a work environment.
Having a good work space helps. I already have a gaming setup and I just added a docking station for my work laptop and switch the monitors over for it to become a work space.
Some people I work with go into the office every day because they need that separation, especially if they don't have dedicated space for working or live with people who don't leave them alone. I do hybrid so split between the two and I find it to be the most effective since there are some in person discussions that make things go smoother and then on the days at home I can do the solo work in a more comfortable setting with fewer distractions. Sometimes I have to close the door to keep family out, but in the office I don't even have a door...
