Creating Spaces Buyers Will Love

Today’s home buyers have high expectations and plenty of choices. How do you differentiate the homes you build? A functional floor plan design can help seal the deal. Room for technology, casual living areas and flexible spaces are some thoughtful floor plan additions that focus on how a family lives.

With technology integrated into our lives, a common area for electronic gadgets and a computer is crucial. Creating a dedicated space in a central area for paying bills, surfing the internet or charging cell phones, MP3 players or PDA’s, adds convenience and function to any floor plan.

Another growing design trend is the return of casual living space adjacent or open to the kitchen. Known as hearth, keeping, family or morning rooms, this casual space serves the family’s everyday needs, and offers a place for families to relax. As the popularity of the formal living room declines, demand for casual living space is widespread.

No matter the size of the home, a flexible space for household tasks is a thoughtful addition for any buyer. The laundry room has evolved into a multi-functional space providing a place to perform these tasks with ease. The family’s “dirty work” can be contained in this expanded area, with many larger utility spaces functioning as laundry, mudroom, hobby space and storage. With more cabinets, counter space and accessibility, the utility room becomes functional for everything from flower arranging to pet care.

Functional and thoughtful floor plan features add both value and convenience, ensuring that the homes you build will stand out in a competitive market. Practical features such as technology space, casual living areas and flexible spaces show potential buyers that you have their comfort and ease of living in mind!
