Finding a home that truly works for larger families can feel impossible. How do you balance privacy with togetherness? Flexibility with comfort? It can be hard to find a space that meets everyone’s needs. A multi-gen suite can end your search with a well-crafted, spacious solution! At Tesoro Viejo, our builders perfected the art of multi-generational living. They’ve designed these homes with families like yours in mind. Below, we’ll reveal how these multi-gen suites can make all the difference in your family’s day-to-day life.
What Is a Multi-Gen Suite?
A multi-gen suite is a separate living space within a home designed to give families the perfect balance of togetherness and independence. This feature is in high demand as more families embrace multi-generational living. In fact, according to the Pew Research Center, over 59 million Americans now live in multi-generational homes.
Think of it as a home within a home — complete with its own bedroom, bathroom, and sometimes even a kitchenette. It’s ideal for grandparents, adult children, or extended family members to have their own space while still staying close.
Advantages of a Multi-Gen Suite in New Homes
Renovating an older home to fit multiple generations might seem like a good idea… Until you’re living in a construction zone and facing higher costs than expected. A multi-gen suite meets your family’s needs right from move-in day!
Buying a new home with a multi-gen suite already included is a more practical, stress-free solution. Plus, newer homes come with energy-efficient systems that reduce utility bills and last longer.
Lifestyle Benefits of Multi-Generational Living
Living in a multi-generational home offers more than just extra space. It can transform your family’s day-to-day life in meaningful ways.
Sharing financial responsibilities is a huge advantage, from splitting mortgage payments to reducing utility costs.
Plus, with built-in childcare and elderly care, families can help each other out. Further data from Pew Research shows that one-third of U.S. adults in multi-generational homes say caregiving is a primary reason, with 25% caring for adults and 12% for kids.
Living together makes everything a little easier — whether it’s the emotional support, financial relief, or just knowing everyone is safe and cared for.
