New Homes with Mother In-Law Suites
NC custom home builders add private quarters for extended stays
Homes with inlaw suites are more popular than ever, as the economy shifts to a more condensed lifestyle. According to a Coldwell Banker survey, financial reasons came up as the top answer homebuyers gave for wanting their new home to have a mother-in-law suite.
Another big segment of homebuyers said that they wanted a home with an inlaw suite so that they would be able to take care of a family member in frail health.
NC custom home builders are seeing additional reasons for mother in law suite floor plans, such as needing a private area for an adult child who has moved back home, or a friend who needs a place to stay for a while.
New homes with mother-in-law suites also offer flexibility for overnight guests, when that space is not otherwise occupied.
Choosing a Mother-in-law Suite Floor Plan
Mother-in-law suite floor plans can be as versatile as your needs.
The most common homes with inlaw suites that NC custom home builders are seeing is a first floor bedroom with attached bath and sitting room, or an even more economical first floor bedroom with attached bath.
Things to think about when building new homes with mother-in-law suites include:
- Should it include a sitting room?
- Is a kitchenette worth the extra expense?
- Is a private entrance to the mother-in-law suite necessary?
- Will you need a larger garage?
- What amenities will lead to greater resale value?
