Summerlin showcases variety of home designs

The master-planned community of Summerlin is teeming with options for those who prefer first-floor master bedrooms and suites. While most are located within single-story floor plans, several two-story floor plans also offer first-floor master bedrooms, bringing the total number of options in Summerlin to more than 100 — located throughout 25 neighborhoods within nine of the community’s actively selling villages.

According to Danielle Bisterfeldt, vice president of marketing of Summerlin, that means there are homes with first-floor master bedrooms and suites in nearly every corner of the community.

“Many of today’s homebuyers prefer first-floor master bedrooms and suites for obvious reasons. They make great guest rooms; they offer easy access; they can be easily converted into office space or other uses; and they are ideal for buyers seeking their forever homes with the anticipation they will age in place and remain in the comfort of their homes as long as possible. A second-floor bedroom accessed by stairs simply doesn’t work for the longer-term view of many homebuyers who prefer single-story living, especially when it comes to their bedroom.”

First-floor bedrooms also offer the opportunity to enjoy indoor-outdoor living via sliders and connecting courtyards. They offer greater privacy in multistory homes, creating distance between parents and older children, or giving aging grandparents or extended family a place of their own — a growing trend as multigenerational living is on the upswing.

According to Bisterfeldt, homes with first-floor master bedrooms and suites typically sell faster and command higher sales prices given all their advantages.
