Embracing Multi-Generational Living: Latitude Homes' Granny Flat Solutions
In today's evolving housing landscape, multi-generational living is becoming increasingly popular. Latitude Homes understands this trend and offers versatile home designs that cater to families looking to accommodate multiple generations under one roof. Let's explore how our thoughtfully crafted homes can provide the perfect solution for your extended family.
The Rise of Multi-Generational Living (aka Granny Flat) options.
Multi-generational households are on the rise, offering numerous benefits such as:
- Economic stability through shared expenses
- Built-in childcare support
- Stronger family bonds
- Emotional support across generations
- Shared responsibilities
- Comfortable aging for older family members
Latitude Homes recognises these advantages and has developed home designs that seamlessly integrate the needs of different generations.
Innovative Home Designs for Every Generation
Spacious Open-Plan Living Areas
Our homes feature expansive open-plan living areas that serve as the heart of the home. These spaces are perfect for family gatherings, allowing all generations to come together while providing ample room for individual activities.
Private Retreats for Each Generation
While togetherness is important, we understand the need for privacy. Our designs incorporate separate living areas and bedrooms, ensuring each family member has their own space to unwind.
Accessible Design Features
We prioritise accessibility in our multi-generational homes, incorporating features such as:
- Wide doorways and hallways
- Step-free entrances
- Ground-floor master suites
- Grab bars in bathrooms
These elements ensure comfort and safety for older family members, allowing them to age in place gracefully.
The Second Dwelling | Granny Flat Solution
For families seeking an additional layer of independence, our granny flat options provide the perfect solution. These self-contained living spaces offer:
- A separate entrance for privacy
- A compact yet functional kitchen
- A comfortable bedroom and living area
- An accessible bathroom
Granny flats aren't just for grannies anymore. They have a wide range of uses; home office, studio, sleep out, teenager’s bedroom, hobby space, guest room, private rental accommodation, temporary accommodation during renovations or a space for a live-in babysitter or pet-sitter.
At Latitude Homes, we have many small footprint house plans, these range from 60m2 with the option for 2 and 3 bedrooms. Our modern granny flats are not that different from traditional homes. Apart from the size, granny flats have essentially the same structure and components of a regular home. For example, our granny flats have a full-size kitchen, a living space and full sized bedrooms. At Latitude Homes, we can custom build granny flats or second dwellings on your property, to suit your needs and your section.
Granny Flat options:
70sqm Motu 3 bedroom, spacious design. This well designed layout fits all this in to only 70m2!
The Wairoa 60sqm 2 bedroom is a small house plan but perfectly formed.
Hector, a 60sqm functional design. We love how this design has everything for the ‘no fuss’ home owner.
Environmental and Financial Benefits
Multi-generational living not only brings families closer together but also offers environmental and financial advantages:
- Reduced overall environmental footprint
- Lower energy consumption
- Shared living expenses
- Potential for shared childcare costs
By choosing a Latitude Homes multi-generational design, you're investing in a sustainable and economically savvy living solution.
