With all the emphasis we place on having our "own
space," there's still something to be said for the benefits
of togetherness, especially when it comes to choosing a multi-family
home design.
Multi-family homes have become one
of the fastest, growing segments in new residential construction
over the last decade. Duplex / twin, triplex
and four-plex / quads units are springing up in record numbers
across the country. There are several reasons behind this surge.
With the amount of land available
for new construction shrinking, lot prices are continually rising.
Eliminating one or more
side yards is a great way to reduce overall costs. Plexing
units also
reduces
the number of exterior walls (with accompanying siding and
window costs). Sharing expensive foundation walls provides
additional cost savings. Less yard and fewer exterior walls also
mean
less
maintenance,
something particularly appealing with today 's hectic lifestyles.
Multi-family homes provide income
options for homeowners who use part of the unit as rental property.
They can also
offer an attractive
solution for families who need to care for older parents.
Like our single-family homes, these designs feature attractive
elevations,
today's most popular amenities,
open floor plans, thought-thru traffic patterns and an
abundance of light.
We offer a variety of duplex / twin, triplex,
and 'quad' home plans in our multi-family collection. Each of our
Multi-family house design plans including those featured here can
be customized to your specific needs. Our Plan
Alterations department can alter any of these plans to make
it the perfect home for you.
