FourPlans: Double-Duty Dens

Telecommuting today, impromptu guests tomorrow. These offices can handle it all.

2 MIN READ

If your buyers don’t need full-on in-law suite but would still like some flexibility, consider a home with a den that can do it all. With adjacent or private full bathrooms, these rooms can accommodate last-minute visitors while functioning as spacious home offices or homeschooling spaces most of the time.

Plenty of Room for Working or Guests

This brand-new design features on-trend farmhouse styling and a versatile 3,205-square-foot layout that gives a busy family plenty of growing room. Lockers and a walk-in pantry greet everyone as they come in from the garage, making it easy to stash groceries, backpacks, and coats. The large den features a walk-in closet and close proximity to a full bathroom. See more images, information, and the floor plans.

Simple, Open Ranch

With its modern open layout, this classic ranch style will stand out from homes on the resale market. A den near the front has easy access to the hall bath, so it can act as a fourth bedroom in a pinch. The kitchen features an island and flows into the nearby dining room and living room. In the master suite, a big shower feels contemporary. See more images, information, and the floor plans.

Versatile Garage with Studio

For building on an existing property as a guest house, this garage with a studio adds tons of utility. The living space features a spacious, multipurpose area that can serve as a guest house, home office, art studio, band practice space…the possibilities go on and on. The full bathroom includes a large shower. See more images, information, and the floor plans.

Set-Apart Suite

Located at the front of the home, the office/bedroom 4 enjoys an ensuite bathroom and a bit of distance from the other secondary bedrooms, making it more private for guests or an elderly live-in relative. Behind the garage, a large and relaxing outdoor dining area can become a peaceful oasis. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
