Flexible Home Design For Better Living

The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the tremendous importance of flexible home designs. Even though, how people work, play and live were all changing before COVID-19. The pandemic only served to accelerate the process. California home builders are certainly aware of these changes and are responding to what people need from their homes. They are getting more creative to embrace the new reality of how a home serves its owners and are designing for not just function, but comfort and some fun.

Embracing Life Stages

Life is unpredictable, therefore, what you may need in a home today, may not be what you need tomorrow. Flexible home design opens up options for homeowners to have designated space for the future. For example, you may not be ready for kids now. But a flexible home design means that you’ll be able to easily adjust if the stork were to arrive. On the other hand, if you think at some point your aging parents might need extra assistance and need to move in with you, it is very beneficial to already have a private space ready for them. Multi-generational friendly homes typically have everything older adults need on a single floor.

Transforming Spaces

A key part of flexible home design is that homeowners can adapt and use space as they see fit. A prime example of enhanced usage options comes in the form of transforming a bedroom into a home office, classroom, or other space. Bonus rooms and lofts can perform a range of functions, such as serving as a media room, home gym, craft space, or study area and have become very popular among homeowners.

Laying the Foundation

One major concern of flexible home design is the plumbing and wiring. It is one thing to add walls, but quite another task to add wiring and plumbing. So, buying a new home has a significant advantage in this area. California homebuilders can provide homeowners with the options to customize multi-purpose rooms so they are maximized for the intended use. There is no doubt that this approach is far superior to ripping out walls, especially once you are already living in the home.

For example, when you opt to buy a new home in the foothills at Revere, you can choose from a variety of options to meet your preferences, even down to each individual room. This way you will be able to settle in and start enjoying your new home immediately.

The bottom line is that there is no replacing flexible home design. Savvy California homebuilders are looking to “future proof” your life and how you may want to live now and in the future. Blue Mountain Communities understands the importance of having a flexible home design, which is why every square foot of our new homes are designed with you in mind.
