When building a new home, you have three choices. You can go with a pre-designed floor plan, choose a builder who specializes in custom homes, or do something in between, which is sometimes referred to as semi-custom. One thing you’ll notice when you look into these options is that custom homes have become quite popular with families that want their home to meet all their needs.
Custom homes are also popular because they address your personal lifestyle. For example, if you love to spend every moment planning and creating lavish meals for your family, you may want a kitchen that is far larger than those in most pre-designed floor plans. You might also want a large pantry. If you have frequent guests or older children, you might want all the bedrooms to have a private bathroom instead of just the master bedroom having this luxury. If your family is active in sports, you might want a large entry area off the garage for storing sporting equipment. The list goes on and on when it comes to layouts and features that your family would find perfect, but typical floorplans do not address.
Custom homes also address the passion for uniqueness. Just knowing that no other home is identical to yours can be a rewarding feeling. It can also boost the value of your home because when you decide to sell down the road, your unique home will stand out from the others on the market.
