Today's homeowners need spaces that can function as offices, schoolrooms, and so much more. These floor plans from Donald A. Gardner Architects are ready to meet the challenge, with layouts that feature multipurpose rooms and smart configurations.
For families with live-in extended relatives (like an in-law), the extra privacy of a second master suite really comes in handy. This simple design places both suites on the main floor, where they're easy to access, and a third bedroom upstairs. Also convenient: the drop zone with storage on the way in from the garage. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
Families will appreciate the variety of bedrooms in this 2,466-square-foot plan, with a master suite on each floor and two secondary bedrooms. Also, the charming study/flex area makes a great little office or homework space, with a nice view outside. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
This 1,720-square-foot design builds in flexibility with a smart detail: one of the bedrooms includes two entrances, one from the foyer (as you would expect from a study) and the other to the hallway, just steps from a full bathroom for the convenience of family members or guests. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
This plan does a nice job of integrating outdoor living into the layout without requiring a big lot. Both the kitchen and the master suite open out to the back porch, while the study/bedroom in front enjoys a view of the front porch. Check out the ultra-spacious bonus room upstairs.
