Bees have a honey of a reason for building hives. Lennar builds similar sweet spots for homebuyers who want multiple generations living in two homes under one roof. Lennar’s Next Gen® – The Home Within A Home® does just that in new homes for sale in Dallas, TX.

Nationally noted architect Lisa Cini calls such an innovate floorplan a “hive,” according to a Fast Company article, which also featured Lennar. The first in the nation to build these family-centered plans, Lennar offers them in nearly two dozen Metroplex communities.

Today, homebuyers are buzzing about Lennar’s multigenerational homes for sale in Fort Worth, TX, and in Dallas. Each floorplan features a private suite with its own kitchenette, full bath and living area—separate spaces ideal for senior parents and grown children.

“A fully functional home within a home,” as David Grove, Division President of Lennar Homes in DFW described the Next Gen® design to Dallas’ NBC affiliate 5 last February.

More and more, as Grove pointed out to Channel 5, homebuyers are “thoughtfully and intentionally” purchasing a new home to accommodate second or even third generation.

For 60 years, Lennar has been ahead of every curve. Today, American families are returning to the nostalgic lifestyle of the 1950s, when more than a fifth of the U.S. population lived under one roof with grandparents or grandchildren. By 1980, that number fell to 12 percent, but now the popularity’s returning to 20 percent, according to HavenLife.

In Dallas-Fort Worth, Lennar showcases these practical new homes in such communities as Arcadia Farms’ Brookstones collection and in Hills of Crown Ridge, to name just two.

Among the new homes for sale in Princeton, TX, Arcadia Farms’ Liberty design also includes an optional game room or media room for all family members to enjoy. These homes, ideally situated in an amenities-rich community, are priced from the $350,000s.

In Hills of Crown Ridge, new homes for sale in Frisco, TX, also feature Lennar’s The Home with a Home®, with generous square footages up to 3,861 and prices from the $380,000s.

In addition, these homes feature Lennar’s groundbreaking Everything’s Included approach to homebuilding, yet another reason these designs and their lasting value make such sense.

“Multigenerational living arrangements might improve financial resources, buffer stress, reduce loneliness, enhance intellectual sharing and generate structural social capital, thereby elevating the level of one’s health,” according to a study last year.
