Given that they’re well-suited to a wide range of people, needs and lifestyles, it’s no surprise that single-story homes only continue to grow in popularity.

After battling back the misconception that they’re only for an older crowd, single-story homes are increasingly popping up in new communities as an ideal choice for couples

and families at any stage of life looking to experience the best of low-maintenance, open-concept living.

Whether you’re a family with young children or a more mature couple in search of somewhere to settle down, one of the greatest advantages to single-story living is the ease and accessibility that comes with having all rooms on a single floor.

Open-concept floor plans means that parents can monitor young children from almost anywhere in the house without them playing out of sight on an upper floor.

And while single-story homes may not be only for mature or elderly couples, that doesn’t mean that they aren’t well-suited to older homeowners.

Less storys = less to clean, and that’s some math we can all get behind. One of the biggest benefits of living in a single-story home is that they are generally easier to maintain — both inside and outside of the home.

Single-story homes tend to require larger lots to accommodate their wider floor plans, which in turn means that homeowners will have more green space in their backyards.
