Flex Rooms Change to Suit Buyers’ Needs
Flex Rooms offer several different ways to fit your lifestyle and are very popular with today’s homebuyers!
The chief benefit of a flex room is that the space is built in the way that best fits the buyer’s needs. It provides the ultimate flexibility in how they want to use their home.
A flex room isn’t just about rearranging furniture, but involves structural modifications when the home is built to make the space more useful for the buyer’s needs.
If you were making a flex space into a study, we would put French doors up and add hardwood floors. If you were making it a living area, we would leave it as a cased opening. If you were making it a dining room we would add wainscoting, hardwoods and a chandelier. When you’re building it, you’re able to personalize it based on what your needs are.
Some flex rooms can actually make a home larger, as well as more functional.
You may be looking at a floor plan that has a 3 car garage, but converting that third garage into a hobby/game room or bedroom will make it larger because you are making that livable space.
If you enjoy entertaining a formal dining area could have an attached butlers pantry that leads into a gourmet kitchen. An office is another option it is be the perfect place to work from home or even be used as a place for kids to do their homework.
At Legacy Homes we offer the flex room as the standard configuration and we give other configurations as upgrades.
Buyers might wonder whether they can change a flex room’s configuration after they move into their new home. The answer is yes, but remodeling later could be more costly than the our upgrade.
The bottom line is that flex rooms offer buyers options that might not be found in a resale home.
The great thing about building a new home is that you are able to personalize it to your specific needs. It will increase the value and make it more comfortable for you.
Let us at Legacy Homes know what you want in your flex room and we will work to make it happen!
