6 Tips on Choosing the Right Floor Plan for You

So you’re your thinking about buying a new home.  Although exterior look and style is important when buying a home, choosing the right floor plan is even more important because, if the home doesn’t offer the right amount of square footage and finished living areas, you may live there always feeling like something is “missing.”

Here are 6 tips on choosing the right floor plan when buying a home.

Tip #1 – Think About Your Family and Lifestyle

Before choosing a floor plan for your new home it’s important for you to sit down with all of the individuals who will be living there and discuss each persons needs and wants and what lifestyle you plan to enjoy while living there. For example: If your children are still young enough that they will be living with you for the next 10 to 15 years, you will want plenty of space including bigger bedrooms for your children to grow into as they grow older.

Let’s say that you and your spouse, or significant other, are older, and your children already grown, in this case you may want to choose a floor plan which has average size bedrooms, or an additional master suite for one set of parents to live with you as they grow older.

When choosing a floor plan you should also think about the impact that it will have on your body right now, and as you grow older. For example, two story floor plans, or floor plans with steps, can have a big impact on individuals who have issues with joint pain, or knee pain where a one story plan or a plan with a main floor master bedroom could be a better option.

Tip #2 – Think About Privacy

When choosing a home, it’s important to think about the issue of your privacy needs and to focus on exactly where you’re going to want that privacy.

Privacy is especially important when it comes to bathroom areas. For example in the master suite, some people don’t like to have a door between the master suite and the master bathroom, while some do.
