The Rise of Multigenerational Living
Luxury buyers are increasingly seeking homes designed to accommodate multigenerational living and evolving family needs. Forty-five percent of Luxury Property Specialists surveyed noted that flexible layouts were a top design feature among their clients.
With attributes such as first-floor in-law suites, lofts or alcoves, open floor plans and extended family spaces, these designs allow for seamless life transitions such as raising children, caring for elderly parents and creating functional work-from-home spaces. Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) – while not always attached to the main residence – are also increasingly sought-after among buyers who want the flexibility to host guests while maintaining privacy. This versatility ensures that luxury homes remain not only beautiful, but also sanctuaries that have emotional resonance, authentic spirit and serve as a practical investment over the long term.
