A custom built home solves the unique challenges of multi-generational living situations.
- There are more and more living arrangements where aging parents move in with their adult children.
Young adults are frequently coming back to live with mom and dad or taking much longer to move out. Multi-generational households have unique requirements. Custom builders tailor plans to specific lifestyles. Recent studies have shown that approximately 39% of adults between the ages of eighteen and thirty-four have moved in with their parents. Another report stated that an increasing number of households are made up of at least three generations. For today’s demands, custom homes offer the possibility of mother-in-law suites or even a second, smaller, on-site home. Apartment-style spaces include independent kitchenette, full bathroom, living areas, laundry and even home gyms and private patios or balconies. There are numerous reasons to opt for a luxury, multi-generational custom built home. Flexible layouts can be reconfigured as needed to meet evolving requirements. Bedrooms can transition into a home office or study. Designated living spaces for various family members can be designed to promote a sense of community while ensuring privacy. Everyone has their own separate space. There is also the opportunity to share amenities such as home theaters, fitness centers, gourmet kitchen, storage, outdoor living areas, swimming pools and more. A custom home provides for a supportive family unit without sacrifice or compromise. In many cases, the multi-generational living arrangement provides invaluable benefits. Grandparents are available to handle childcare while eliminating strenuous household maintenance tasks. Younger adults are free of financing drain while pursuing higher education or career advancement.
