Having worked from home for close to 6 years now I would add:
 - get an exercise regime. Seriously. The c25K program is great for
those would like to become runners.
 - regularly go to the office, without fail. Once a month at least.
 - in that office get everybody around the whiteboard.
 - determine chains of responsibility - is it an 'ask permission' or
'ask forgiveness' environment
 - never settle emotive disagreements over text, Skype or email. Face
to face first, phone call second
 - ALWAYS remember to turn off your camera when Skyping in your
pyjamas, particularly if you don't wear them. Yep, enough said.
 - be prepared for the blues and have a strategy to challenge them
 - isolation breeds paranoia and cliques will form around those you can see

Working from home is the best thing, until it isn't, and then it is
the worst thing. As ever, avoiding the pitfalls is much better than
curing them. It can be the most amazing and productive experience, but
it does require discipline :-).
