Reasons Homeowners Add a First-Floor Master Suite

Remodeling projects are an excellent way to make your dream home a reality. They can transform a home, make it more comfortable and update it to fit a homeowner’s changing lifestyle. One of the top remodeling trends today is adding a master suite. In today’s blog post, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Reno, the top choice for kitchen cabinet refacing and other home remodels, explains why many people add a master suite to their home.

They are empty nesters. Empty nesters and couples with adult children often add a master suite to their home as part of a full-house remodel. They may convert former kids’ bedrooms and then add a master suite to the first floor where it’s more convenient. Many do this because they want easier access to their master bedroom and to avoid having to navigate a staircase.
They want to add value to their home. Adding a master suite can also improve a home’s value. As one of the top interior remodeling contractors in our area, we recommend consulting with us before starting a project if your main goal is to improve your home’s value. We can give you more detailed advice after an on-site meeting.
They want to save energy. Empty nesters can save on their energy bills by closing off upper rooms. It’s becoming more common to only make the second floor available for use when the kids come to visit. Adding a master suite to the first floor means that you only have to worry about heating or cooling the first floor.
There are unused rooms. Older homes often have formal dining rooms or dens that aren’t used very often. Some homeowners find it more practical to transform these rooms into a master suite. A master suite addition is a great home renovation project that can allow you to make the most out of your available square footage.
It’s convenient. A first-floor master suite is much more convenient for homeowners who plan to stay in their current home as they age. For example, a master suite will save effort since the closet is only a short distance away from the laundry room. A first-floor master suite is also more accessible for people of all ages and abilities.
