GenSmart Suite®: flexibility for your family's changing needs
The demand for multigenerational living, where everyone from newborns to aging parents live together under one roof, has been growing for several years. In fact, approximately 1 in 5 Americans enjoy the benefits of multigenerational housing, according to the Pew Research. In response to this trend, Tri Pointe Homes® offers floorplans with flex design ® that help take everyone’s needs into consideration. Our GenSmart® Suites allow you to design your home for today while also providing the ability to adapt your space to whatever path your life takes.
Family time for all generations
"Each Tri Pointe Homes floorplan is designed with a deep understanding of how our customers want to live in their home," says Tri Pointe Homes VP of Architecture and Design, Jeff Lake. For instance, oversized great rooms, entertainment kitchens, and outdoor living areas provide spots where everyone can congregate together. With floorplans designed to include flex space options, our homeowners are able to personalize their new homes to suit their individual needs and lifestyle.
Privacy in a GenSmart Suite®
Whether it’s aging parents moving in with their adult children, young adults returning home, or out-of-town guests, the GenSmart Suite® allows multiple people to live comfortably together. The suite combines the features of a well-designed dedicated living space with the benefits of a multigenerational home, all under one roof. The space can include a bedroom, bath, and closet and may also have the flexibility for an optional lounge area, kitchenette, and washer and dryer. Some are even designed to provide a separate entrance. The GenSmart Suite® is designed to offer plenty of privacy, flexibility and independence.
Flexibility at its best
During the design and selection process, a Tri Pointe Homes team member will be able to help you personalize the suite to meet your specific needs. While you should ensure it fits your current lifestyle, consider options that may be useful a few years down the line. This flexible suite can serve as a home office, gym, guest room, or private living space for relatives without the need for remodeling.
Benefits of multigenerational living
As more homeowners are discovering, multigenerational homes offer multiple benefits for everyone in the family. Young children have the ability to develop closer relationships with their grandparents, adult children can enjoy more time with their aging parents, and grandparents can even experience less loneliness when everyone shares the same home. Multigenerational homes can also be more cost-effective than maintaining separate households. When adult children are able to care for their parents in the home, it may reduce the need for expensive long-term care. GenSmart® Suites may also provide additional income or give young adult children a place to return if the need arises.
If you are looking for a home that provides the comfort and flexibility of a multigenerational home, Tri Pointe Homes offers floorplans with the GenSmart Suite® to help you strike the ideal balance between togetherness and privacy. Jeff Lake says, "Being committed to leading-edge design and personalization for our homebuyers means we are thoughtful about creating flexible spaces, such as our GenSmart Suite® to accommodate multigenerational living."
