The 3Roots masterplan, where Lennar is now selling new homes from three collections, recently announced a partnership with the local and award-winning Fit Athletic Club, which will curate classes at the future Fitness and Recreation Center, which is slated to open in Fall 2022. The partnership provides even more opportunities for homeowners to easily enjoy a healthy and fitness-driven lifestyle.

“We are so excited to be able to offer this exclusive amenity to our homeowners here at 3Roots,” said Cindy Baker, Director of Marketing for Lennar San Diego. “The entire idea of this community is built around healthy living, so the new partnership with Fit is a great addition to the top-notch amenities homeowners will benefit from.”

3Roots is a highly-anticipated masterplan set in Sorrento Mesa of San Diego County, which is bringing approximately 1,800 new homes, parks, local retail and recreational amenities for homeowners to enjoy. Designed as a “welltopia” of healthy living and sustainability, the new partnership with Fit Athletic will launch with the opening of the Fit & Rec Center, which is anticipated to open in Fall 2022.

The future recreation center will include a range of amenities, such as a pool and spa, clubhouse, state-of-the-art exercise equipment, aerobic rooms, parks, playgrounds, trails, a dog park and more. Homeowners will have the opportunity to work one-on-one with Fit Athletic Club heath consultants to develop personalized exercise and nutrition programs tailored to meet their own health goals.

It’s time to devour that last piece of candy corn, clear the sad, droopy pumpkins from the stoop and replace all the scary with something a bit more cheerful. The holidays are officially here!

While most of the 2020 holiday season was spent at home with close family and friends trying to think of something creative to fill the festive void, this year we’re inching our way closer to normalcy. For many, that means hosting dinner parties and gift swaps. Here are our tips for preparing your home for the holidays:

Decorations:

The holidays are a time of joy, merriment, giving, and love. However, there’s always that one controversial topic we can’t avoid: colorful lights or white lights. Whichever camp you’re in, we say, “go for it!” Embrace your style and max it out.

Foodie Prep:

If you love to host and have the kind of home where friends and neighbors are constantly coming and going, you’ll always want to be ready to entertain. For this reason, we recommend preparing a few holiday food staples sure to please your guests.

Vibe Creation:

The holiday vibe doesn’t just magically arrive along with the season – it’s created. It’s in the twinkling lights, the cheery melodies, the comforting scents, and the warmth of a fire. Here are a few ways to create the holiday vibe in your home this season

Many of today’s homebuyers now want their grandparents and parents to live closer to home—in fact, under the same roof.

This year marks the 10th anniversary since Lennar introduced the Next Gen®-The Home Within a Home®, and 2021 is the design’s bestselling year so far, according to a November report in “Yahoo! Finance.” The growth is propulsive. Purchases of multigenerational homes reached an all-time high of 15%, compared with 11% of all home sales in 2015-2016, the National Association of Realtors reported last February.

Such big shifts in homebuyers’ desires require big innovations to accommodate them. That’s where Lennar comes in. Lennar’s premium Next Gen designs boast private suites, conveniently situated on the first floor, and some even have their own separate entrances. Each private suite offers a complete kitchenette, living room, bedroom, and bath.

Here’s a sampling of Lennar’s multigenerational new homes for sale in highly sought-after locations across DFW in communities that also offer family-friendly amenities.

Lennar’s Caraway community, with new homes for sale in Haslet, TX, showcases the Next Gen Genesis. The Heritage in the Bradford Park community is another Next Gen model among new homes for sale in Flower Mound, TX. Both offer four bedrooms and three baths.

Overland Grove, the Lennar community with new homes for sale in Forney, TX, includes the Liberty II, with four bedrooms and 3.5 baths. Yet another Next Gen design with four bedrooms and three baths, the Reliance, welcomes multiple generations to Arcadia Farms-Classics, the Lennar community with new homes for sale in Princeton, TX.

Each home, of course, boasts more than a private suite. Indeed, Everything’s Included®— another Lennar innovation. All homes include upgrades that are standard. These “features” are considered add-ons by other home builders, passing costs on to you—and to other generations.

To name just a few upgrades, these Next Gen homes feature quartz or granite countertops and GE® stainless steel appliances in the kitchen; generous owners suites with sumptuous baths; and to add even more modernity to the modern multigenerational model, robust smart-home technology with The Connected Home by Lennar™.

Ten years ago, Lennar Phoenix debuted their revolutionary design: Next Gen® – The Home Within A Home®. At the time, the U.S. Census Bureau reported that nearly a third of Americans were “doubling up,” with two or more adult generations living together and under the same roof. As one of the nation’s leading homebuilders, Lennar sought to address this growing trend and created a floorplan for how people choose to live. Next Gen is a design that incorporates two homes under one roof – a main home with an attached private suite with its own separate entrance, living area with kitchenette, bedroom, bathroom, laundry and often a garage attached to the main home.

Starting with one Next Gen design, over 15,000 Next Gen homes have been sold nationwide and plenty in the bustling greater Austin area. Now with multiple Next Gen designs available, Lennar’s game changing plan can accommodate a variety of needs that go beyond multigenerational living. This completely flexible unit is ideal for aging parents, as well as boomerang kids, home schooling, a home office and other distinctive needs. The possibilities for how you can utilize the suite are truly endless and help make homeowner’s lives better.

“It’s been a decade since we debuted our Next Gen home and this design is still as important as ever. In today’s environment, with even more homeowners working from home, the Next Gen suite has been key to providing additional flexible workspace,” said Charlie Coleman, Division President for Lennar.

Every Next Gen home also showcases Lennar’s signature Everything’s Included® program that makes the homebuying process much simpler by incorporating the new home features and upgrades todays buyers want in their dream home as standard. Enjoy stainless steel appliances, kitchen countertops, designer-selected cabinetry, energy-efficient technology, home automation and much more at no extra cost.

If you are wanting to adopt the up-and-coming maximalist trend for your home, dress up your walls with printed wallpaper to add some excitement to any setting. Maximalism focuses on the bold- from colors and prints, to textures and materials. Wallpaper has recently been reborn and offers a trendy way to incorporate any color to your space. The combination of both maximalism and wallpaper gives us the birth of this bold interior design trend for 2021 and beyond.

Back to Nature

Current wallpaper favorites include florals and natural scenes. Natural elements and materials are also showcased in recent trends, adding a sense of sustainability to any setting. This includes wicker and straw woven papers. Consider using a fun floral wallpaper to create a statement wall or build a unique color palette in any room.

Texture

Texture is another element of wallpaper that allows you to creatively develop your space, but in a more understated way. Textured wallpaper can be subtle and add interest to plain rooms, while simultaneously working cohesively with existing furniture or color schemes.

Wallpaper is trendy because the possibilities are endless. With such a plethora of print options and uses in any room, wallpaper creates a stylish refresh for your home.

The best part is that you can make this trend a DIY project with these helpful tips:

Prep your walls

It is very important to prep your walls. Make sure to strip the old wallpaper, take out any nails, and sand. This ensures that the wallpaper will go on flat and stick seamlessly to the surface. Use a sharp edge to cut the paper straight and then roll the wallpaper paste onto the back of the paper. For the best results, use a high-quality paint roller to apply the paste.

Apply wallpaper

Once on the wall, use a smoother to run over the paper. As you hang, wipe the paper to clean the paste residue. Both of these steps help create a professional-looking project at a fraction of the cost. Roll the wallpaper seams using a roller. This will prevent the edges from curling and give the wallpaper a seamless appearance.

Even better, consider some of the newer self-adhesive wallpapers for a quick application.  These peel and stick wallpapers are perfect for a room you want to dress up quickly or change frequently.

Our communities provide a variety of floorplans and optional additions, as well as custom color packages for exteriors, and finishes inside of your home.

As the weather continues to cool down and dying leaves make themselves at home in piles on front lawns, we’re reminded of the approaching holiday season, typically beginning with Thanksgiving. This year, Thanksgiving falls on Thursday, November 25. 

If you’re planning on hosting, you may be starting to think of how you want to decorate your home for guests. But hosting and decorating can be a lot of work – between meal planning, coordinating out-of-towners sleeping arrangements, getting all the Thanksgiving décor from the basement, and reminding group chats for the hundredth time when dinner is going to be served, it can cause a lot of stress.

Your table setting should not have to be another thing that stresses you out. We’ve put together a list of six simple ways you can decorate your Thanksgiving table that will feel effortless but look intentional.

Warm-toned tablecloths

It seems so simple, but a warm orange, maroon or brown tablecloth will set the stage for Thanksgiving dinner and help provide a solid foundation for a themed table without having to put in much effort at all. 

Name plates

Name plates offer a thoughtful addition to your table setting – even if your guests are going to move them around to make themselves comfortable.

Cloth napkins and napkin rings

Cloth napkins in seasonal colors look great this time of year, but if you want to go for something that you can re-use outside of the holiday season, white always looks good.

A themed or simple napkin ring will tie the look together in a way that guests will really notice. If you don’t have napkin rings – or you simply don’t have enough for the number of guests joining you for dinner – a gold, orange or mustard yellow ribbon is a stylish and inexpensive alternative. Opt for velvet ribbon if you want to add a luxurious touch. 

Candlesticks

Long white candlesticks add warmth to a table setting with ease. With all the delicious smells radiating off your guests’ plates, unscented candles are the way to go.

If you can’t bear to part with the pumpkin-scented candles that you already bought, try lighting them when guests are arriving or during cocktail hour, and blow them out about an hour before dinner is served.

Natural elements

Mini pumpkins, warm florals and leaves are effortless additions and look great at a holiday table. If you’ve got a long table, a faux eucalyptus runner adds a warm touch of green, while cranberry vines add a pop of seasonal color.

Homemade crafts

Homemade touches (such as the eucalyptus runner) require a bit of work, but that doesn’t mean that you have to be the one putting it together. These are great opportunities for getting the kids involved, and typically, around this time of year, guests are more than happy to help the host in any way possible.

This is also a great task for the family members who aren’t very skilled in the kitchen but still want to contribute. Ask if anyone would want to add a homemade craft for the table and put some artistic skills to good use!

Holidays are stressful – but simple and thoughtful touches go a long way without taking time away from your busy hosting schedule. These are just some of the ways you can make your Thanksgiving table stand out this holiday season in your new Lennar home.
