From elderly parents and commuting college students to frequent guests, Lennar’s The Home Within a Home® provide space for everyone in your household, built with a “home within a home.” The Home Within a Home is essentially two homes in one, as they include an attached suite with a private entrance in addition to the main home.
The separate suite has its own bedroom, living area and kitchenette, along with a variety of other features that give residents a feeling of independence while being only steps away from the rest of the household. In addition to providing space for guests or other family members, the suite is versatile and can be a home office, a gym, or a studio, or can provide a place for hobbies.
Here are just a few of the benefits of living in The Home Within a Home:
There is a wide variety of uses for The Home Within a Home suite
There are many factors that can make living in The Home Within a Home home the perfect situation for your family. Whether your elderly parents are reaching a less independent time in their lives or your older child is ready for a private space, The Home Within a Home provide flexibility to accommodate life’s changes.
In addition to providing more living space, The Home Within a Home suite can serve as a private area to manage an in-home business or do various hobbies and activities. As just a few examples, The Home Within a Home homeowners can use the suite’s spacious living room as an office, a tranquil in-home yoga studio, a man (or woman) cave, or a high-tech media/game room.
A separate suite provides privacy and independence
The Home Within a Home suite has its own private entrance along with a complete separate living space. Larger floorplans also come with an eat-in café, a separate one-car garage and a separate laundry space equipped with a washer and dryer. There is also an interior door that connects The Home Within a Home suite to the main house for indoor access.
These features mean your elderly parents or young adult child can maintain their independence and have a space to call their own. For other uses, such as an office or art studio, the suite provides a private space to meet with clients or a quiet retreat to focus on an important project.
Sharing the cost of utilities and the mortgage can be simpler and cheaper
When everyone lives under one roof, there’s no need to pay two mortgages, two sets of utilities payments or the rent for a separate apartment or senior living facility. Living in The Home Within a Home home feels like having two separate homes, but mortgages, electric bills and other home costs are all in one. Using the suite as an office or studio can also help your budget by eliminating the need to rent a separate space for those purposes.
With Lennar’s The Home Within a Home living, no family has to sacrifice its comfort to enjoy living under one roof. These homes provide opportunities for families to be together from one generation to the next, while still providing the convenience of private space and independence that can be perfect for a family’s ever-changing living needs.
The Home Within a Home homes are available in two of Lennar’s Tampa Bay communities, Hawks Point in Ruskin and Stillwater at South Fork in Riverview. Floorplans include the 3,588-square-foot Liberation floorplan and the 1,956-square-foot Freedom floorplan.
